1. Is there a cost for public records?: Florida law authorizes municipalities to recoup their costs of providing public records. If the public record request requires more than fifteen (15) minutes of employee time (including the time to gather, copy, scan and/or print the requested documents, or redact information exempted by Florida Statutes, if necessary), the requester will be charged for that time at the lowest hourly rate of the class of employee(s) involved. For physical copies of requested documents, there will be a charge of $.15 per page for one-sided copies ($.20 per page for two-sided copies). If the City anticipates that there will be a significant cost to provide the requested public record, the City will provide an estimated cost for the public records. The requester must acknowledge the estimated costs and authorize the City to proceed before document production will begin. Once the request is complete, the requestor must pay the City before the documents will be provided.

2. What are some ways that I can streamline the public records request process?: There are some things that you can consider when you make a public records request that can decrease the response time and reduce production costs. • A significant amount of information is available on the City’s website. • Be specific; avoid overly broad requests. • Provide dates ranges of requested public records, especially on emails and correspondence.
RETURN TO PUBLIC RECORDS PAGE

3. How long does to take to receive the requested public records?: The City responds to public records requests as quickly as possible. However, requests for a large number of documents, or requests that require significant staff time may result in a longer response time. The volume of public record requests may also slow the response time.

E-Plan Application Submittal/Prescreening

Show All Answers

1. What do the status application codes mean?: The following is an explanation of the application codes.
Codes:
- PS Status – Prescreen (permit librarians checking or waiting for required items from applicant)
- PC Status – Plan Check
- AP Status – Approved (all plan review has been approved, sent back to permit librarians for QC)
- IS Status – Issuance (fees being assessed, licenses being checked, NOC posted)
- PP Status – Permit Printed (after fees are paid, plans are stamped, permit card is uploaded into project)
- PI Status – Permit Issued (issued, disc ready for pickup or applicant can download approved plans)

2. How do I upload and submit files?: To obtain a copy of an easy tutorial, please contact the Building Department at 561-393-7930 or via email at BuildingPermits@MyBoca.us

3. What do I name the files?: To obtain a copy of the naming conventions document please contact the Building Department at 561-393-7930 or via email at BuildingPermits@MyBoca.us

4. When can I upload my plans?: Once you make application online you will receive an email within the next business day with instructions that will invite you to Boca E-Plans.

5. Can I start work before the permit is issued?

The Building Official may authorize a pre-permit construction agreement for interior commercial tenant build outs and multifamily interior build outs only. The application must be complete and executed by the general contractor and owner before being submitted. The application must include the project contract, the notice of commencement and written acknowledgment from the fire alarm and sprinkler companies that the work will not cause system trouble alarms or failure while under construction. The building official, fire official and zoning officer will then review the application for basic code compliance and determine whether the project may commence prior to permit issuance.

To obtain the Pre-Permit Construction Agreement, please contact the Building Department at 561-393-7930 or by emailing a request to BuildingPermits@MyBoca.us

6. What does PS or "prescreening" mean?: Each application type has a specific application checklist so that you know the minimum documents and plans required to start plan review. The PS or "prescreening" status means that your application is waiting for you to submit the minimum checklist items for your application type. Plan review does not start until these items are submitted.

7. Can I submit corrections on-line if the initial application was brought in over the counter?: Yes, you use the e-Plans username and password sent to your email address. Please don’t go to the City website and create another application. We would then need to revoke the newly created application and move the documents, delaying the process.

8. Can my subcontractor submit a correction?: Anyone can submit permit documents but a complete response to comments from a plan review cycle is required at one time. Incomplete responses from individuals other than the applicant will not be accepted. Once another plan review cycle starts, no additional documents will be accepted for that review cycle so it is important that the response is complete.

9. Can I still submit permit applications, corrections and revisions over the counter?: If you prefer to submit plans, corrections and revisions over the counter, only one set is required. Your plans and documents are logged and scanned into system. There will be a onetime paper processing fee and scanning fees due before issuance. There is no charge to scan City of Boca Raton application forms. Plan review corrections are accepted only after the review cycle is complete.

10. Can I put all of the documents in one multiple page pdf?: No each plan sheet needs to be its own separate file so that if there is a correction or later revision only that sheet needs to be revised and not the whole set. Some documents such as product approvals, specification cut sheets and energy calculations can be multiple page pdfs.

11. What type of electronic file formats are accepted?: The following types of file formats are accepted:
- DWF
- PDF
- TIF
- DGN

12. How are electronic signatures for architect's and engineer's signed sealed drawings handled?

You have two options for electronic and digital signatures, both meet the requirements of the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation's applicable licensing boards. 1. Certificate-based digital signature registration: Adobe Acrobat includes a certificate signature utility that lets you sign PDA files with a certificate-based digital ID, also known as a digital signature. With Acrobat you may create your own certificate ID which the City will maintain on file for all of your permit projects. You create this certificate ID by completing a Digital Signature Affidavit form online, signing and sealing the physical form, then hand delivering or couriering to the building division. You must purchase Adobe Acrobat in order to use this option? It is highly recommended that you review the City's tutorial before creating your certificate ID.

To obtain a copy of the Digital Signature Tutorial, please contact the Building Department at 561-393-7930 or via email at BuildingPermits@MyBoca.us

13. What building permit applications need to be filled out and what signatures are required?: Separate application forms are required for the main contractor and each licensed subcontractor. All building applications (Building, Mechanical, Electrical, Plumbing) must be signed and notarized (or signed in person) by the qualifier. Only the main application form needs to be signed and notarized by the owner. Fire, Engineering, Environmental and Zoning applications as well as applications for total contract work under $2,500 do not need to be notarized or signed by the owner.

14. Can I put my entire project under one building permit application?: Accessory structures such as pools, docks, decks, screen enclosures, fences and generators/transfer switches are still separate applications with separate permit numbers. We have learned over the years that keeping certain permit applications separate reduces inspection confusion, eases project closeout and benefits future records research.

15. What are the initial fees to apply for a building permit?: The only fee needed to get started is an initial deposit -- one percent of the total contract amount or $100.00 minimum.

16. Where do I find the applications and prescreening requirements?: Application forms as well as prescreen checklists for each application type are available by contacting the Building Department at 561-393-7930 or emailing BuildingPermits@MyBoca.us

17. How do I know what application type to use?: Application types are divided into four categories: Same Day Service Applications, All Occupancies Applications (occupancy does not matter), One and Two Family Applications and Multi-Family/Commercial Applications.

18. What is an online building permit application?: You are able to upload and download applications, documents and plans as well as track plan review progress and pay online.

19. Can I E-Submit my application as an Owner Builder?: No. The state of Florida requires that an owner builder applicant appear in person to submit. Please visit us at the Building Department during business hours, Monday through Friday 8 a.m.- 4 p.m., except Wednesday, 8 a.m.- 3 p.m.

20. How does the 5th Edition (2014) of the Florida Building Code affect Window Replacements?: Please contact the Building Department regarding window replacements at 561-393-7930 or via email at BuildingPermits@MyBoca.us

11. What is the Labyrinth on the clocktower?

What is a labyrinth?

A labyrinth is an ancient symbol that relates to wholeness. It combines the

imagery of the circle and the spiral into a meandering but purposeful path.

A labyrinth looks like a maze but is not. A maze is like a puzzle to be solved.

It has twists and turns and dead ends. You have to think and think and be

alert for any clues you may find. A maze can be frustrating, frightening, or

challenging. You can get lost in a maze.

A labyrinth, unlike a maze, has no dead ends. There is only one path, and

while it does have twists and turns, you can’t get lost. The same path takes

you into the labyrinth and out again. With a labyrinth you don’t have to

think, or analyze, or solve a problem.

With a labyrinth you just trust that the path will lead you to where you need

to be.

Police Communications (911)

Show All Answers

1. When is it appropriate to call 911?: 9-1-1 is a number that is reserved for emergencies: Life or death situations, medical problems, and in-progress property crimes are examples of emergencies. If you are merely annoyed by a situation (such as loud music, or barking dogs) please use our non-emergency number of 561-368-6201. Your call will still be handled as quickly as possible, but in priority order so limited resources aren't taken away from people reporting true emergencies.

2. Why do you ask for my address and phone number, can't you see them on your screen?: 9-1-1 uses special Caller ID technology called ANI/ALI (Automatic Number Identifier/Automatic Location Identifier) to display the caller's phone number and address. However, as with all technologies, it is not immune to the possibility of errors in the database. We ask, and verify, address and phone number information for your safety, and to assure we are responding to the correct location. It is also possible that the problem being reported is at a different location than where the call is being placed. If the call were disconnected prematurely, we need to know how to re-contact you for additional information. Asking this information does not delay the call in any way, and ensures you the proper response, and the best level of emergency services. Please call 561-338-1234 for more information.

3. Why do you ask so many questions, can't you just send help?: Telecommunicators are trained to gather all necessary information that the responding Police or Fire-Rescue units will need before they arrive at the scene of an emergency. This information ensures the proper unit(s) are sent, for the caller's, involved parties, and responding unit(s) safety. The questions help, they do not hinder nor do they delay the response. It is in everyone's best interests to answer all of them to the best of their ability.

On medical emergency calls, Telecommunicators utilize flip charts from the National Academy of Emergency Medical Dispatch (NAEMD) to properly classify the call, select responding units, and determine the level of response needed. Extensive medical research has proven that these questions, and the information they elicit, are vital in providing the best level of pre-arrival healthcare for the patient.

Telecommunicators are also trained to provide pre-arrival instructions, such as how to perform Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) or the Heimlich Maneuver to save a patient's life. Following these instructions is much more helpful than hanging up the phone before the Telecommunicator terminates the call. Please call 561-338-1234 for more information.

4. I received an email that says I can dial *677 from my cell phone if I need help. Is this true?: While private wireless carriers may allow alternate dialing options in different parts of the country, 9-1-1 is the one national number that you should use to call for help. It is much easier to remember, and much more reliable. Even cellular phones that do not have an active service plan can still access the 9-1-1 system in an emergency. Please call 561-338-1234 for more information.

5. I live in Boca Raton. Why was my call transferred to the Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office (or other agency)?: The City of Boca Raton Police/Fire Communications Center's jurisdictional authority extends only as far as the incorporated city limits. If the place of occurrence of the incident was in the unincorporated area (commonly referred to as West Boca), or in some other city, you will be referred to the correct agency. Please call 561-338-1234 for more information.

6. What is the strangest call you've ever received?: Our 9-1-1 Dispatchers get asked this question very often. And while we did have some rather strange ones during the post-Anthrax attacks, the sensitive nature of our work requires that we protect the confidentiality of the information we hear. Please call 561-338-1234 for more information.

Project IRIS

Show All Answers

1. What is Project IRIS?: Project IRIS is the City's reclaimed water project: In-City Reclamation Irrigation System. This system provides reclaimed water for irrigation to a number of area parks, commercial green spaces, residential lawns and landscaping. reclaimed water is a viable alternative to using drinking water for landscape irrigation. Please call 561-338-7310 for more information.

2. What is reclaimed water?: Reclaimed water is recycled wastewater that has been highly treated, filtered and disinfected for the irrigation of landscape areas. Boca Raton's reclaimed water system delivers recycled water to customers through its own reclaimed water distribution system, completely separate from our drinking water system. Please call 561-338-7310 for more information.

3. What is the cost of reclaimed water?: The cost of reclaimed water is less than half the cost of potable or drinking water. Review tables to find the costs of reclaimed water and potable/drinking water.

4. What are the typical costs for a single-family hook-ups?: Installation costs will vary according to the meter size the homeowner uses. If your home currently has a 1 1/2'' water meter, a 1" IRIS meter may suffice, and could save some homeowner costs. Costs for a 1" meter include $225 for the installation, payable in 6 bimonthly bills, a $35 permit application fee, and costs associated with the actual plumbing hook-up. These costs will vary depending on which licensed plumbing or sprinkler contractor you choose to provide the hook-up services, or if you do the hook-up yourself. Once in use, IRIS water is billed on a bimonthly basis. Please call 561-338-7310 for more information.

5. What are the typical costs for a multi-family hook-ups?: Because of many varying factors, these costs will be looked at on a case-by-case basis. Please contact Customer Services at 561-393-7750 for more information.

6. Why does reclaimed water for irrigation make sense?: In the past, this highly treated wastewater has been essentially 'thrown away' by discharging it into the ocean. Yet, studies showed us that the typical Boca Raton customer poured as much as 70% of their drinking water each month onto lawns and landscaping. reclaimed water is a way to conserve a valuable resource by reducing the amount of drinking water used as irrigation, and the IRIS program offers other benefits to customers at the same time. Please call 561-338-7310 for more information.

7. Is reclaimed water safe? Who else is doing this?: Reclaimed water is safe. Many safeguards are built into every water reclamation facility, and the water is tested to meet national, state and local regulatory standards. The City of Boca Raton meets or exceeds all of these regulatory standards for its production of reclaimed water. Simply put, this water cannot leave the plant until it has been fully tested for safety and water quality.

Reclaimed water is not intended for consumption, but it poses no threat to public health from accidental contact. reclaimed water is actively used in more than 1,900 locations around the country, about 400 of them here in Florida. Some communities on the western side of Florida have had a similar successful urban irrigation reclaimed water program in place for more then 20 years.

8. How can I get reclaimed water service?: In order to get reclaimed water service, we ask customers to:
-Verify that you have reclaimed water service available in your area. If you think you have reclaimed water service available or have questions, call the Utility Services Department at 561-338-7310.
-Once reclaimed water service availability has been confirmed, customers must apply for a reclaimed water meter through the Customer Services Department in City Hall at
201 SW 2nd Avenue
Boca Raton, FL 33486
(Customer Services can be reached at 561-393-7750)
-Once your application has been approved and a reclaimed meter has been installed, a licensed plumber or irrigation contractor must connect your irrigation system to the reclaimed water meter.

To get started, download an area map (PDF).

9. Now that I have IRIS, what do I do?: -Please be prepared to allow authorized city employees to make periodic inspections
-Check your water heater to be sure that it has a properly functioning relief valve to prevent build-up of pressure
-Please check with a licensed plumber if you have questions
-Adjust your irrigation heads to eliminate over spraying on non-turf areas

Once your in-ground sprinkler system is officially hooked up to reclaimed water, you can irrigate any time that you wish, without having to worry about watering restrictions. Please call 561-338-7310 for more information.

10. Are there irrigation time restrictions for the use of reclaimed water?: City Code, Article 2, Section 17-57(1) Application states: The provisions of this section shall apply during all periods of time in which no water use restrictions, as provided in sections 17-55 and 17-56, are in effect. The provisions of this section shall apply to all use of water for irrigation regardless of source, except:
1. Reclaimed water may be utilized for irrigation purposes each day of the week from 5 p.m. - 8 a.m.
2. Irrigation with reclaimed water by golf courses shall be exempt from all day of he week and time restrictions

Please call 561-338-7310 for more information.

11. Is there an unlimited supply of reclaimed water?: While reclaimed water helps to conserve precious drinking water, the supply is not without a limit. We suggest that you treat it as any other resource and water wisely. Please call 561-338-7310 for more information.

12. Are there any rules regarding what reclaimed water should not be used for?: IRIS water is for irrigation and back-up fire protection. While accidental contact with IRIS water is safe, reclaimed water is not meant for drinking, cooking, bathing, swimming pools, hot tubs, pets, or indoor use.

Please treat IRIS as the valuable resource it is, and water only as much as necessary. And of course, we need to remind you of the many things that IRIS is not intended for, including:
-Body contact recreation, such as pools or spas, hot tubs, wading pools or children playing in sprinklers
-Connection to a dwelling unit for any purpose, including water cooled air conditioning
-Consumption
-Direct spray on "salad" crops (e.g., lettuce, tomatoes, berries)
-Use with a hose bibb
-Washing pets, equipment, structures (E.g., siding, roofs), driveways, or vehicles

Please call 561-338-7310 for more information.

13. Are residents required to connect to the IRIS system?: If you live in an area where reclaimed water is available and you have an in-ground sprinkler system, we recommend hooking up to Project IRIS. If you do not have an in-ground sprinkler system, then you cannot hook up to IRIS until you have one installed. If you are currently watering your lawn through some means other than the City's drinking water system (e.g., canals, wells) and IRIS is available, we recommend you hook up. If you aren't sure if you live in an area where IRIS is available, feel free to call the City's Operations and Environmental Compliance Manager at 561-338-7310.

14. Should/can reclaimed water be used for edible plants?: Studies of the use of high quality reclaimed water show that it can be safely used to irrigate edible food crops. In fact, the national reuse guidelines (EPA, 1992) fully support the use of reclaimed water meeting Florida's standards as being safe for irrigation of any type of edible crop. However, Florida's reclaimed water guidelines are more stringent than the national and international guidelines. Florida's reclaimed water rules also allow for irrigation of food crops, but with 1 exception. Spray irrigation using reclaimed water is prohibited for crops that will not be peeled, skinned, cooked, or thermally processed before human consumption (salad crops). Please call 561-338-7310 for more information.

15. Why do or will I have a purple meter box?: Purple is the national color standard symbolizing reclaimed water. Please call 561-338-7310 for more information.

16. How can I be sure that IRIS is helping the City to conserve drinking water?: IRIS benefits everyone
By reclaiming a valuable freshwater resource and reducing our withdrawal from the aquifer that is our source of drinking water the City of Boca Raton Utility Services Department is helping ensure the sustainability of our regional water supply.

By using IRIS water instead of drinking water to irrigate, customers have already been able to make a notable impact. Since 1996, the City and our customers have saved over ten billion gallons of drinking water. Please call 561-338-7310 for more information.

17. How can I learn more about Project IRIS?: If you would like to receive more information about Project IRIS, or about other ways to conserve water, please call City's Operations and Environmental Compliance Manager at 561-338-7310 or write to us at:

Traffic ATMS

Show All Answers

1. What are video monitoring cameras?: Video monitoring cameras allow staff to identify or verify traffic congestion in the control center, make immediate modifications to the traffic signal timing accordingly to relieve the traffic congestion and verify the effect of these changes. Also, traffic incidents can be immediately reported to the Police and Fire Rescue Departments for clearing the roadway quickly.

2. What is a video detection system?: Video Detection Systems are replacing the old existing detector loops cut into the pavement. This detection system uses video images from cameras installed at an intersection to detect vehicles approaching or stopped at the intersection. This project provides substantial relief as it prevents the loss of detection due to loops getting cut by construction activities. Video detection will provide for continuous detection during construction time frames, are more durable than regular loop detection, and are easier to maintain. The cost of video detection is relatively similar to standard detector loops at large intersections.

Traffic Calming

Show All Answers

1. What is traffic calming?: Traffic calming is the combination of physical features constructed in the roadway that reduce the negative effects of motor vehicle use by altering driver behavior and improving conditions for non-motorized street users. In the City of Boca Raton, a formal Traffic Calming Policy was adopted on February 27, 2001 that establishes guidelines for a neighborhood wishing to participate in the City's Traffic Calming Program. An "Enhanced Speed Hump" traffic calming feature is available for funding by the city through the Program. Call (561) 416-3374 for more information or for a copy of the Policy.

2. Can we put up signs to tell traffic to slow down?: The City of Boca Raton has found that passive devices such as signs are not effective. Most drivers do not respond. Installing active traffic calming measures such as speed humps to physically slow traffic work best.

3. Are stop signs an option for traffic calming treatments?: No. Stop signs are traffic control devices, not traffic calming measures. Stop signs are installed to clarify who has the right-of-way at intersections. They are not an effective method for calming traffic or slowing speeds. When installed where unwarranted, they breed disrespect from drivers and actually may cause crashes by providing a false sense of security to pedestrians, cyclists, and other motorists.

4. What are some of the advantages and disadvantages to speed humps?: Speed humps are the most direct way to address driver behavior and encourage slower speeds. They are also one of the least expensive traffic calming features, are easy to construct, require minimal design work, and can be implemented in a short time frame. However, speed humps do increase emergency response time by causing an average delay of 7 seconds per feature. In addition, while overall noise levels on the street may decrease due to lower vehicle speeds and traffic volumes, some noise may increase at the actual speed hump location, such as from trucks with loose equipment.

5. What are some alternatives to speed humps?: Although speed humps are the only feature available for funding through the City's Traffic Calming Program, other traffic calming features such as mid-block islands, mini-traffic circles, entrance treatments, or roadway narrowings may be implemented if a Homeowners Association or group of property owners wish to pay for them. An engineering permit from the City and approval for the features through the City's Traffic Calming Program are still required.

6. Can we just close the road?: No. According to the City Code, only the City Council has the authority to close a road. Road closings or diversions should only be considered as a last resort. Closures require traffic to divert to other routes and can increase trip lengths. Physically closing a road may impede emergency service access to neighborhoods and cause concerns for sanitation pick-up and other services.

7. Can we get more police cars to patrol our neighborhood?: Yes. The Police Services Department has a Hotline to report traffic problems or request additional enforcement. In addition, if traffic calming is requested to be implemented in a community, a request for additional law enforcement may help the neighborhood transition smoothly as an interim measure.

8. How much will all of this cost?: Speed humps are the quickest and least expensive traffic calming features to install. The "enhanced speed hump" features cost approximately $13,000 each and are funded by the City. Costs include the installation the speed hump, landscaping, and adjustments to any irrigation systems. However, regular maintenance and irrigation of the landscaping will be the responsibility of the adjacent property owners. Other traffic calming features will cost more depending on the cost of design and construction and must be funded by other sources, such as a Homeowners Association or group of property owners. The City has a limited annual budget for the Traffic Calming Program which is subject to final approval by the City Council.

Traffic Reports

1. How do I request traffic data?: Requests for traffic data reports should be directed to the Traffic Engineering Department by either calling the Traffic Signals Engineer at 561-416-3387 or using the Feedback form provided on this web site.

Traffic Signals

Show All Answers

1. When is a traffic signal installed?: Federal guidelines (Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices - MUTCD) that establish minimum conditions under which a traffic signal installation should be considered are mandated by Florida Statutes. The MUTCD provides a process for maintaining agencies such as the City of Boca Raton to follow while investigating conditions and circumstances regarding the installation of a new traffic signal.
The MUTCD contains criteria, or warrants, that define the minimum requirements for volume of vehicular or pedestrian traffic that are used to define the need for and appropriateness of a particular traffic control device. Warrants should be viewed as guidelines, not as absolute values. However, if no warrants are met, a traffic signal will not be installed. Satisfaction of a warrant is not a guarantee that a traffic signal is needed. The MUTCD states that proper engineering judgment should be exercised in making the final determination. More details about traffic signals is provided in the Information Brochures section of Traffic Operations

2. What is a left turn signal?: Left Turn signal phases facilitate left turning traffic and usually improve the safety of the intersection for left turning vehicles. However, this is done at the expense of the amount of green time available for through traffic and will usually reduce the capacity of the intersection. Left turn arrows also result in longer cycle lengths which will in turn have a detrimental effect by increasing stops and delays.
While adding a left turn phase can often improve safety and reduce delay, other solutions such as timing adjustments to improve gaps for left turns and geometric improvements to improve sight distance may be more appropriate. More details on left turn signals is provided in Information Brochures section of Traffic Operations.

3. How do I report a traffic signal or school flasher malfunction?: Traffic signals and school flashers in the city limits are maintained by either City of Boca Raton or Palm Beach County. Malfunctions related to traffic signals or school flashers should be reported to Traffic Signals Section at 561-416-3364 or 561-416-3372. The feedback form in this web site can also be used to report such malfunctions. If the traffic signal is in flash please call the traffic signals section immediately.

4. What are LED signal heads?: City of Boca Raton has started a program to change out regular incandescent bulbs used for traffic signal heads to signal heads made with Light Emitting Diode (LED) modules. The conversion results in a power consumption savings, as the LED modules utilize 1/5th of power that is normally used by an incandescent bulb. The incandescent bulbs have a service life of one to two years requiring a yearly replacement effort. The service life of the LED signal heads range between five to seven years, resulting in significant reduction in maintenance efforts for the city staff. Staff projected a savings of over two million dollars for the City in power consumption and maintenance efforts over a period of seven years.

5. What are internally illuminated street name signs?: Internally Illuminated street name signs are the lighted street name signs that are installed at signalized intersections in place of the regular signs with reflective sheeting on aluminum panels. The City has initiated this program to install the internally illuminated street name signs at all signalized intersections to improve visibility of intersection names at night times.

1. What is concurrency?: Concurrency means that the necessary public facilities and services are available when the impacts of development occur. Concurrency is a timing mechanism, to assure that the provision of development and facilities occur simultaneously. The public facilities subject to concurrency are roads, sanitary sewer, solid waste, drainage, potable water and parks/recreation, as provided in Chapter 163.3180 (1) (a) of the Florida Statutes. Concurrency is measured based upon level-of-service standards as adopted in the Comprehensive Plan.

2. What is a constrained roadway?: A constrained roadway is a roadway that will not be expanded with additional through lanes because of physical, environmental or policy constraints. Physical constraints primarily occur when intensive land use development is immediately adjacent to roads, thus making expansion costs prohibitive. Environmental and policy constraints primarily occur when decisions are made not to expand a road based on environmental, historical, archaeological, aesthetic or social impact considerations.

3. What is a backlogged roadway?: A backlogged roadway is a roadway that is operating at a level-of-service below the minimum level of service (LOS) standards, is not programmed for construction improvements in the Capital Improvements Plan (CIP) five year work program schedule, and is eligible for future improvements as designated in the Comprehensive Plan (as it would not yet be at its ultimate section pursuant to City Policy).

Utility Services: Hydrant Flushing

Show All Answers

1. What should I do after the flushing?: -If tap water is used during flushing, it could come out full of sediment that causes discoloration. If you encounter discolored water, shut the water off and wait several minutes. After waiting, check the clarity by running cold water for a few minutes, allowing new water to work its way into your pipes. If the water is clear, it's ok to use. If not, wait a few more minutes and check again. In some cases, there may be slight discoloration for a few hours. This discoloration only affects the appearance of the water; it does not affect the taste or water quality.
-Avoid washing laundry during scheduled flushing times. Wait until the water runs clear at the tap, then wash a load of dark clothes first.
-If pressure or volume seems low, check your faucet screens for trapped particles.

Please call 561-338-7300 for more information.

2. How do I get on the pre-flushing notification list?: To get on the pre-notification list, contact the Operations and Environmental Compliance Manager at 561-338-7310.

3. How often are hydrants flushed?: The Utility Services Department flushes the entire system for two weeks twice a year, generally beginning during the 1st week of May and November. Before flushing the fire hydrants, a public notice is published in the Boca Raton News and placed on the City's website as well as notification on Government Access Channel 20. Businesses and customers that may be adversely affected by the flushing, such as hospitals, doctor's offices, pet stores, and others are contacted directly by the Utility Services Department. Please call 561-338-7300 for more information.

4. What takes place during fire hydrant flushing?: During the flushing process, a Utility Services Water Distribution operator opens each hydrant to its maximum flow. The flow stirs up iron deposits and settlements and removes them from the system. The operator cleans and lubricates accessible operating parts, checks the operation of the hydrant and valve, and records any deficiencies for repair. Also during the 2-week system-wide flushing, the disinfection process is changed from chloramines to "free" chlorine. Please call 561-338-7300 for more information.

5. Why is hydrant flushing necessary?: Periodically, you will see Utility Services personnel releasing water from hydrants. Flushing is done to remove sediment from the pipes in order to maintain water clarity and quality in the distribution pipes. Please call 561-338-7300 for more information.
