BACKGROUND ANALYSIS:


 

In keeping with the City of North Miami Beach’s (“City”) Strategic Plan of providing excellent municipal services and being fiscally responsible, the Utilities Department is responsible for maintaining the infrastructure including facilities and buildings at the Norwood-Oeffler Water Treatment Plant (“WTP”).
