Mr. Carney: After five years or more planning we finally got our lights which is good news. Is has been about five years hasn't it?
Mr. Morgan: Every bit of that I believe, I agree with you. The lights look fantastic out there.
Ms. Karnegis: I concur. It is beautiful. It is lighted up. I think everyone seems to have positive input.
Mr. Morgan: The only thing I have is not only the street lights look really nice, the community is well lit but we also we had the Lux solar lighting put around the roundabout and they are really impressive don't know if you guys had an opportunity to see them.
Mr. Carney: Is the job completed?
Mr. Baldis: Yes and no. It is completed according to the plan but Chris and I met with Maj from Lux and asked him to install two more reflectors.
Mr. Morgan: Let the record show that Chris Kapish has joined the meeting. Chris are you there?
Mr. Kapish: Yes, I am here.
Mr. Baldis: We are going to add two more in this area here, and I also asked him to clean up. If you went up and looked at them real close, some of them, they put a lot of epoxy and it overflowed. It looked a little sloppy but he said they could take care of it. It took a long time but I am happy.
Mr. Pawelczyk:  Chris we are just talking about good news right now just so you
know.
Mr. Morgan: Do you have any good news Chris? Mr. Kapish:  No, thank you.
Mr. Morgan: Anybody else?  Next item is public comment.

SIXTH ORDER OF BUSINESS

Update and Discussion of Projects
for the Bonds

Mr. Morgan:   Number 6 is the update and discussion of projects for the bonds.
Bob do you have anything?
Mr. Zuccaro: Yes sir. I have a bunch of items here. I am going to break them down by discipline category.  Surveying assignments, the Turtle Run Boulevard West survey we staked out the back of the right-of-way and the easement line. It appears that there is
some encroachments of some of the individual fences of those property owners.  It is from

43rd south down to the FPL easement on the west side.

---

- --  - -   -  ---	--

Mr. Morgan: 43rd right here going southbound?
Mr. Zuccaro: Yes. We did some field work. Our surveyors went out there and did that, brought that information and some of the office people are putting the documentation together. They are going to continue the field work tomorrow, finish the office work. Ultimately you should have a survey which will have all the encroachments identified so that Dennis and Chris can do their coordination with the property owners as they see fit.
Mr. Morgan: The survey is going to be completed tomorrow?
Mr. Zuccaro: They are going to be out there again tomorrow. I don't know if they will be done. I would think that the sketches and everything should be done by the end

of the week.

The second survey item is we have got a project survey that has been

assigned to assemble an atlas of all of the easements for all of Turtle Run. That is underway. Item 3, they are also working on the wall easements. There are four wall easements where the property owners have agreed. They are working on sketches and legal descriptions for that. As soon as that gets completed I will pass that onto Dennis and Chris. Architectural components for the Estates sign wall structural review by the city is pending right now. What they needed was a name of the contractors so we have gotten in touch with PHI and they know that they have to submit the appropriate documentation to get the structural approval. It is just a matter of paperwork. The other
element of  that for approval was zoning.   They have informed us that they have

3

September 24, 2018

Turtle. Run CDD

outsourced that zoning review to an outside consultant. That is in process. That review is underway right now. It is pending those two items before final approvals. As you know, you guys I think you approved PHI at the last meeting. I think there was some negotiations of removing the landscaping and the irrigation from that. I don't know any more than that. Dennis did you want to talk about that?
Mr. Baldis: I am waiting to get a revised proposed from PHI so I can get it to Mike to make a small project agreement. What they are doing is it is going to be as the Board decided that he is not doing the landscaping and the irrigation.
Mr.-Zuccaro:  Ok the main sign on Turtle Run and Sample with the fountain there
is comments on1ine that the architect viewed today. I was in her office. The comment that was made by the zoning processor or reviewer didn't make much sense. It made a comment that said that the plans were not in compliance with the plans that were approved by DRC. I was informed by the architect that there were no changes to that so she is going to have to follow-up with the city with that reviewer tomorrow on that.
Mr. Morgan: With Tamara Peacock's office?
Mr. Zuccaro: Yes. Ok engineering. The first project I am going to address is the Forest Glen Middle School, the sound barrier wall. The last time we talked subsequent to a meeting that Chris Kapish and I went to  a meeting with the School Board representatives, we decided that we were going to relocate the wall so it's smack dab right on the property line. We were informed by Set Adie the engineer for the School Board that if we did that he wouldn't have any issues with that. We have prepared those drawings. They went out UPS today in the mail with a cover letter that I attached to it.
Mr. Morgan: The plans went out to the School Board?
Mr. Zuccaro: Yes. It went out today and there is two copies here, one for you Dennis.
Mr. Baldis: It went out to Mr. Hamberger.
Mr. Zuccaro: The chief building official of the schools.  This is one for Chris.  I
don't know if you wanted to circulate that to them but basically the way I structured the letter was I outlined the various elements that we discussed at the meeting.  Some of the

4

September 24, 2018

Turtle Run CDD

things were tasks that we were to do as consultants.  The School Board was supposed to look into their records to see if there was an as-built and some other claims that they
made.  I went item by item and just addressed every one of them, transmitted five copies

signed and  sealed for their review requesting their  approval.

That is in process.

Creekside and Terrapin project, we had an issue with traffic counts at the two guard houses that the traffic consultant for the City of Coral Springs had concerns thinking that there might be some queuing or backing up of the vehicles that could impact the reduced lef t turn lane that we were proposing on both of those roads.  Both counts that they did
came outvery-good. They weren't very high at all so there is not going to be any impact
and we will make that submittal.

Mr. Morgan:  What was that location again? Mr. Zuccaro: Terrapin and Creekside.
Mr. Baldis: Harbor Island and Newport, their guardhouse.
Mr. Zuccaro: So that is good news, the results of the traffic study. Mr. Morgan: Don't they have a deceleration lane at both of those? Mr. Baldis: No.
Mr. Zuccaro: Left turn and we were reducing that but the consultant had a concern. He wanted to know if there was any backup at the peak hours. So from 4 to 6 our traffic team went out and everything is good.
Mr. Morgan: Ok. That sounds good.
Mr. Zuccaro: The next project, Turtle Run Boulevard, the thermoplastic paint stripping is done. After the curing is ready to go we need to do a site inspection at night time and take photographs. We will be able to see the reflection.
Mr. Morgan: That is in front of the school and the park?
Mr. Zuccaro: Yes.   If it is acceptable then we forward that information to Broward

r

County Traffic.

If the  photos  look  good  they  will  go  out  and  they  will  do  their

confirmation.   They will do their inspection.  Then we can set up a final walk-through

with Stanf ord on that project.

They get very picky with that.  When you look at the

stripping in the daytime it might look good but at nighttime they want to see that those

5

September 24, 2018

Turtle Run CDD

strips are solid. It is kind of deceiving to the eye. We have done some projects with the city of Fort Lauderdale very similar so we know what to expect. I told Dennis earlier today that I have a meeting set up with Rich Michaud and Paul Carpenter tomorrow just kind of introducing myself as the new boy in town sort of speak. I just want to make sure I understand protocols and what they expect on submittals and procedures and how the sequence goes so that I have my arms wrapped around with it.
Mr. Kapish: Bob, you have a meeting tomorrow? Mr. Zuccaro: Tomorrow at 10:00 a.m.
Mr. Kapish:  ok.  What is the meeting for?
Mr. Baldis: It is just introducing himself as the District engineer and he wants to know the protocol and how to proceed when we have things to do within the city.
Mr. Kapish: I know that we turned in Terrapin Lane. Did you just turn that in?
Mr. Baldis: We just did the traffic study so I don't think it is going to be turned in yet. Creekside is the other one that is not going to be turned in until the end of this week.
Mr. Zuccaro: We are ready to turn it in.
Mr. Baldis: It is ready but it hasn't been turned in. Mr. Zuccaro: I gave you guys a curiosity copy.
Mr. Baldis: They haven't seen it. Mr. Kapish: Ok go ahead Bob.
Mr. Zuccaro: I was going to address at this meeting tomorrow on Creekside were we were talking about eliminating that lef t turn into.....
Mr. Morgan: Our turn to nowhere?

Mr. Zuccaro:
intersection.

Yes  the  one  where  you  are  having  all  the  accidents  on  that

Mr. Morgan: Oh yeah on Creekside to Turtle Creek. We had another one there a few days ago.
Mr. Zuccaro: But just to get their feel for what they might be looking for they may
want a traffic study. I am going to address that at that meeting at that time. I will report to you what happened.

Mr. Baldis: Thank you.
Mr. Zuccaro: Next Turtle Creek access path, there is a pending change order from Stanford and then another one from US Brick. I emailed Shawn with US Brick the other day. He gave us a quote but we need an actual change order so that we can review it and approve it and pass it on to you.
Mr. Carney: What is that for?
Mr. Zuccaro: That is for the additional thick brick. Mr. Baldis:  The passive park.
- Mr: Zuccaro: The next item track E, that is the-lake access path opposite by the school there. Everything is complete except US Brick has not done that. Jonathan went by there tonight and reported to me that it is still not in. I guess I wanted to address with you Dennis and find out what is their schedule of when that might be expected when they are planning on completing that?
Mr. Baldis: Who is that?
Mr. Zuccaro: US Brick delivering the brick and installing it on the lake. The one up here by the school.
Mr. Baldis: The passive park and the one up by the school. I am hoping they will be there Wednesday.  It has been very difficult to get them to respond.
Mr. Morgan: Let the record show that John Pfeiffer has joined the meeting.
Mr. Baldis: They keep saying that the bricks are backordered but I am not so sure that is the case. I actually believe that they may be backed up and don't have anyone to install it.
Mr. Morgan: We are having the bricks delivered to both locations at the same time?
Mr. Baldis: Well he is supposed to start tomorrow. I got a text from him saying that they will be there Wednesday. We definitely need to get the bench area done first and then jump on this.
Mr. Carney: What US Brick is doing you know the entrance you wanted to get the
bricks done over, brought up and redone, one of the guys that does some pavers for me,

7

September 24, 2018

Turtle Run CDD

he was notified by US Brick that he wants him to do the job for them. They are actually subbing it out. They are subbing it out to a guy that actually gave a quote to do the job.
Mr. Baldis: They are going to do the bench area Thursday and the following week the passive park as of right now.
Mr. Morgan: Let me ask you this Dennis, when is the main entrance going to be
done?
Mr. Carney: That is the one I was referring to.
Mr. Baldis: I don't have that. He is not responding to that. I am talking every other day sending texts. The voicemail, the mailbox is always full.  It is extremely frustrating.
Mr. Carney: The guy that was offered to do the job for US Brick, he told me that he wouldn't do any work for US Brick. They don't pay.
Mr. Baldis: I am hoping when they show up Thursday to do this bench area that they will be onsite so we can talk to them in person. After all they have $30,000 of the District's money to do the main entrance. They have had it for a while. Again it is very frustrating dealing with them right now.
Mr. Zuccaro: The next item from design standpoint is the city inspector at certain locations made comments that the light poles were not in compliance with the code setbacks. I met with the city engineer and with Larry Yuk He is the inspector. I had a face to face meeting with them. I outlined to them what the various codes in certain instances you can go to a lesser setback. I put together a memo of the results of that and emailed that to them sighting the various locations of where they were, also sighting the codes.  They seemed to be ok with all that.
Mr. Morgan:  Really good job.
Mr. Zuccaro: We are all set with that. We just want to try and make sure that wherever we locate any additional poles we try to maintain the four feet setback.

Mr.  Baldis: That inspector has been very  easy to work  with.

He is very

understanding.  He likes seeing things get done. He just wants to make sure he is aware
of what is going on.

Mr. Zuccaro: I used to work with him at another consulting firm. He said do you remember me? I said not really. It was years ago. The Turtle Creek Boulevard wall Dennis and Chris did a walk through and noticed that it seemed kind of low.
Mr. Morgan: I did that myself the other day.
Mr. Zuccaro: We researched the plans and it is determined that you know how it steps down for that one lot, the one owner wanted to have a view of the lake or water body so it was supposed to be stepped down. That wall is three inches higher than the drawings and the other one is six inches lower. The last time when Dennis, Chris and I talked was that they wanted me to reach out to George over there. I wanted to find out tonight what you wanted to do with that next. Do you want to meet with him on the jobsite?
I would suggest that we have him correct it and put the six inches additional brick and raise the height of the wall.
Mr. Morgan: You looked at the wall physically yourself. Is that something that engineering is possible to correct something like that?
Mr. Zuccaro: Yes.
Mr. Morgan: The pillars, aren't they already built? Are they going to have to raise those too or not?
Mr. Zuccaro: It depends if you want to raise them. The one on Turtle Run Boulevard and 41st the intermediate column and the top of the wall were flush. There is the exact same detail on both so I don't know how there was a difference. If you raise it six inches it will be flush with the intermediate ones.
Mr. Morgan: How does that happen where you are out there, you are the engineer and you see the wall it is not built properly, aren't you double checking the builder's plans when he goes out there and says he did this. Whose job is that?
Mr. Zuccaro: We weren't out there inspecting it.	I guess that is where the

breakdown was.

I know you guys had confidence it was the same guy that built the

other wall that did this one.  Now why there is a staggering and the dimensions aren't
there I don't know.

September 24, 2018

Turtle Run CDD

Mr. Morgan: Do you have any information on that Dennis?
Mr. Baldis: Just from conversations that we have had. I guess you have the option of leaving it the way that it is or making it larger. Part of the problem that you have it that a requisition was created and signed for and they have been paid for the wall everything except for the change order for the caps which was like $2,200 - $2,400. If you leave the wall the ways it is, does the District deserve a reimbursement on the payment we have made because it is not the way it was to be built or we have them do it the way it was supposed to be.  I think those are your options?  To me the wall was supposed to be
···· identical to the one by 41st Street and Turtle Run Boulevard.  I don't think it is identical.
I guess once Bob talks with George from PHI and gets his feedback we will have additional information for the Board to make their decision on which route to go.
Mr. Zuccaro: I will talk to him and see what he has to say, see if he wants to make corrective measures.
Mr. Morgan: I would like to see it the right height if possible if it can be made right. I don't know if that is possible. Sometimes when you try and come back afterwards and fix something you make more of a mess then what it was worth to try.
Mr. Baldis: The decision to build that wall Jake was the engineer and the direction was to build the same wall. He did the plans so whether he did those plans correctly or incorrectly we need to know that. That is pretty much what PHI is going to say. I built it to this plan.
Mr. Morgan:  We have a copy of the plans right? Mr. Zuccaro: The details are identical for both sites.
Mr. Baldis: The details are but the walls aren't. There was a mix-up between George, - PHI and the plans with Keith & Schnars.
Mr. Morgan: If the building plans say a six foot height wall and it is 5 1/2 feet.
Mr. Baldis: Right that is one of the questions I find kind of odd. We asked for a six foot wall and they measure from whether there is three rows of brick under the ground so the wall isn't six foot, it is going to be whatever.  Three inches, six inches

shorter so I am like why don't we ask for a 6 1/2 foot wall if that is the goal to get 6 foot. My assumption was you build a six foot wall and not part of it is underground.
Mr. Carney: Is it built from the footer and the footer is lower? Mr. Baldis: Correct.
Mr. Zuccaro: The footer is 8 inches deep.
Mr. Kapish: Bob just so everybody knows the first wall isn't quite six foot because some it is under the ground. It would be six feet if you measure it from there. I think Lance said something about fixing the wall up to six feet or something like that but that may not be worth the trouble. We want to find out what happened there, but it may not be worth making it something that it is not.
Mr. Zuccaro: I will research that.  I will call George.  I will meet him out in the
field.
Mr. Morgan: With any future wall work that we do we need to make sure that the wall is every bit from grade up. If you have to make a few more inches higher than six feet or whatever you have to do to make it right.
Mr. Zuccaro:  You want a net reveal from the ground to the top of the wall six feet. Mr. Pawelczyk: Is that what the School Board shows?
Mr. Zuccaro: The School Board wall is a different wall.  It is a panel wall but yes. I will do that. I will check that out. Secondary entry walls, there are four of them, those are in design as well as I think I explained to you that they are working on the wall easements so those are currently underway. I think the last issue which you asked us to take a look at the last time was the Rohl change order SB. I had to do some research and find out the sequence of events of what happened. I memorialized that in a memorandum that I sent, is that in everybody's packet?
Mr. Baldis:  They have them.
Mr. Zuccaro: I hope I have explained it. I think where the problem was and I am going to try and summarize it. Initially the electrical engineer designed it with some schematic locations of where the service points would be. He identified five of them but
there was not in the drawings that the contractor was to coordinate with FPL where those

11

September 24, 2018

Turtle Run CDD

service points would be. They started construction, ordered some equipment to expedite the project, then they realized that there was an issue. They hadn't done the coordination with FPL. I think that is when the electrical engineer MSE Main Street got involved with the contractor. It was decided that the best thing to try and do to correct this would be to try and keep the project on schedule would be to try and use existing service points where there was already ties in that they could tie into. Another thing that added to it was that the scope increased from 80 poles to 109 poles. There is an analysis that we did at the end that kind of compares costs so that you can make a decision and see if you can
wrap your arms around that and if that is acceptable to you to-make a decision:  When_           _

the design engineer meet with the contractor it was determined that three service points would be the best route to go rather than to wait two to three months and get FPL involved. I am not going to read each line item here word by word but I am giving you an overview, they presented that to Dennis. He agreed that was the best thing to do. Time was of the essence and we wouldn't have to wait and delay the project. The sticking point is that some equipment was purchased based on the first design. The electrical engineer MSE William Pino has already reached out to some other contractors that are willing to purchase that equipment. He is very confident that he can get $.50 on a dollar for it: We have done an analysis to see how you can compare the impact of the decisions that were made on the District from a financial standpoint. If you look at the third page in that document I have done a summary. Your first design was five service points, that was $28,756.29 of equipment purchased by Rohl and has already been paid for by the District. So that is monies that have already been spent. If we stayed with the five service point design there would probably be another $4,000 to install the five service points and then there also would have been a design modification due to the additional 29 poles to
revise that.   That total cost if we stayed with the five service points would have been

about $37,756.29 and it would have resulted in a two or three month delay.

The

suggested redesign by the electrical engineer was for three service points. Rohl's  quote
for that new equipment is $18,985. When you go with this design concept or option there is no FPL charge because we are using the existing service points.  The estimated cost

12

Turtle Run CDD

September 24, 2018

associated with the sale of the previous purchase equipment you are only recapturing

about  $.50  on  a  dollar  so  the  impact  on  that  is  $14,300.

That was from some

documentation provided by the electrical engineer to Keith & Schnars. Main Street has talked to vendors and he feels that within about a month that he should be able to get that equipment sold and recapture $.50 on a dollar. The net savings at the bottom if you look you will see that the cost of the original five service point design and including any upgrades, that would have had to have been made to add the additional 29 poles would have been $37,756.29. Compare that to the cost of redesign three service points. That is
$33,285, so there is approximate savings, net savings of about $4,400 once the equipment is sold. The downside of the decision that you have to make is that there is going to be some time involved in selling the equipment. Ifyou look at the last sheet, it's a tabulation that breaks down all the costs. You can see the various columns that support the dollars that I have shown in the cost comparison breakdown.
Mr. Pawelczyk: So you are looking for a motion to approve change order SB I assume?
Mr. Zuccaro: Yes. I think based on the fact that there was more than just dollar decisions involved in this there was timeframe to keep the project moving.
Mr. Baldis: I have a question on that Bob because I am the one that ok'd to go from five to three and it was presented to me that there was going to be 11 weeks to get the cabinets. In hindsight they already had the cabinets so there wasn't a delay. They were already here. That is why we are selling them now. That decision wasn't made 11weeks ago. It was made maybe three or four weeks ago. I am still struggling with why we are taking $.50 on the dollar hit for something that I don't think that we are responsible for. The original service points as I spoke previously, they have always been there. We designed the west pump station and added extra electricity for the fact to use these for the street lighting. That was overlooked. I don't know how that was overlooked but Jake again designed that pump house with the design so that we could have extra electricity for the street lighting. I am struggling with why we are taking a hit for those cabinets. If
you said we already paid $28,000 and then you are going to take the $14,000 off of that so

13

September 24, 2018

Turtle Run CDD

we're really $14,000 if we get $.50 on the dollar and then we are going to have to pay another $19,000 for this service right.
Mr. Zuccaro: Yes but keep in mind Dennis that there was a change in the design, 29 more poles.
Mr. Baldis: I understand that. The conversation that we have had was that adding those 29 poles wasn't going to effect this design at all.
Mr. Zuccaro: I don't know about your conversation. Mr. Baldis: Do you remember that Chris?
Mr. Zuccaro: What I have included in this memorandum was discussions with the
design engineer William Pino of MSE. Keith & Schnars is not electrical designers. We didn't design it.  That was a firm that was selected by the District. That is the change of events that happened. We are just trying to explain how it happened. If you want to table it again I would suggest that you bring in the electrical designer and ask him.
Mr. Baldis: What is the total of change order SB now? $80,467.71. What was it the first time you presented it to the Board? Wasn't it over $100,000?
Mr. Zuccaro: I don't recall Dennis.
Mr. Morgan: What is your point Dennis, the first time it was $100,000?
Mr. Baldis: It has come down. I am just questioning those cabinets. Maybe I am questioning it too much. It is just sticky to me. I am losing $.50 on a dollar. The Board didn't make any of those decisions. They approved them on the people that we have hired.
Mr. Zuccaro:  As I understand it there is a dollar amount for the purchase of the
equipment, the cabinets, but then there is also a charge associated with FPL to bring service to those points. That is what that $4,000 estimated is if they stayed with that five service point option. In the second option we didn't need to because the service was already there.
Mr. Baldis:   They never came into play because it was done with the existing
service points to begin with.

Mr. Zuccaro: You are right.  I think that
come in here and explain.

if you want I would call and have MSE

Mr. Baldis: Maybe that is what we do.  We call them.  You lose $.50 on the dollar

not us.

Mr. Morgan:  What you are saying Dennis is we could have stuck with the five service points and been good.
Mr. Baldis: Well the equipment was there.  It was presented to me was 11weeks out.  That is why I said go to this and then all the sudden everyone realized we have
- -enough electricity at all these other location8:
Mr. Morgan: So basically the re-design  of  the three service points was not necessary at all.
Mr. Baldis: Right. If he would have went forward with that we would have had
five.
Mr. Zuccaro:  But it would have cost $37,000 instead of $33,000.   You might want
to bring Main Street in.
Mr. Baldis: That is what I am saying.  That is what we need to do.  We have done a lot of business with them also, lots of business and I think we need to ask them that question.  Why are we responsible for it?
Mr. Carney: If we have done a lot of business with these guys you should bring them in.
Mr. Morgan: Just table it to next time. Chris will be here and we can have a better
discussion. See if they come out for us. Rehash this and Bob will be here also. Good job in explaining it Bob.
Mr. Baldis: Yes thank you I appreciate that.
Mr. Zuccaro: Thank you. Street lighting, I already talked about the setback. I think that is it.
Mr. Morgan: Thank you. Any questions for Bob? Moving onto Item #7.

SEVENTH ORDER OF BUSINESS

Approval  of the Minutes of
the August 13, 2018 Meeting

Mr. Morgan: Approval of the minutes of the August 13,2018 meeting. If everybody has had an opportunity to review the minutes in your IPad we will need a motion to
approve.

EIGHTH ORDER OF BUSINESS
A. Attorney

Staff Reports

Mr. Morgan: Item #8 is the staff reports. Mr. Attorney.
Mr. Pawelczyk: The only thing I really have is you recall the DeFeo ADA website litigation that we approved the settlement on. I just wanted to report that last week the case was closed against Turtle Run. That is a good thing.
Mr. Morgan: Did we have to end up contributing some money on that?

Mr. Pawelczyk:

No the  insurance  provider  is paying  approximately  $2,300 -

$2,500. The only money you are contributing is really unknown at this point. It is going to be how much it will cost to fix your website within 18 months. I know GMS is still working on that. They represent many Districts so once they figure out what they are going to do, they will let you know if there is a cost involved.
Mr. Morgan: That is good news.   That is all you have?
Mr. Pawelczyk: Yes sir.

B.  Engineer

Mr. Morgan: Ok so Bob has nothing further.	Next item on the agenda is Item C.
That will be landscape committee. Dennis can you handle that?

C.  Landscape Committee
D.	Field Manager
E.	Manager
Mr. Baldis: I have a couple of things. The east pump which irrigates Creekside and Terrapin Lane, there is a plan that we talked about back when we were doing the bonds, first was to change out the irrigation pump on the west side and then move over and change out the one on the eastside.  When we did that we could eliminate the one on Sample Road and just have two pumps. Everything is going fine with the other pump on the west side. We are only using about a third of the capacity that we need. So the Board decided to do the park that is all set, we are adding five zones on the FPL easement. Not an issue. What has happened now is the east pump has died. It is a $6,000 repair to buy a new pump motor for this. I'm talking to Robert and talking to Hoover and I am like, I really don't want to spend $6,000 on a pump that sometime this coming year we are going to be replacing. What I am proposing tonight is that right at this intersection here that we make a connection from the main line on Turtle Run Boulevard which is run from the new pump on the west side to make a connection here. It will be a little challenging to do the watering window because of what we need but we will be able to keep the landscaping in decent condition doing that and then at the next meeting I was going to come back and give you a proposal to redo this east pump station. I met out there with Hoover. He gave me the specifications for the electric. I passed that onto Charles from Pro-power to see what it would take. They actually believe which to me is good news that this is only going to be 125 horsepower and that we wouldn't have to build a new structure to put it in. It would actually fit in this structure. That would buy us time to get that connection which we want to do eventually anyway. It would give us time to buy this new pump, get it installed, up and running. We are going to have to go through permitting and all that and they will have to build the pump system. When that
pump goes in we will make a connection here which I believe there already is one.  They

17

are going to have to locate it and make sure it is still good. There is already a valve here. This is already connected. It hasn't been used in years. I did that a long time ago. We are going to connect in here and what you would end up having is no pump on Sample Road. That would be gone. The west pump would do by itself, it has the capacity to do Turtle Run Boulevard, the park, the FPL easement and it would come down here and do all of Sample Road. Then you would have the single 25 horsepower that would be sitting here doing Terrapin Lane, Turtle Creek Drive and anything you wanted to do here in the FPL and it would still have additional capacity.  The problem area is we have down in
   this location at 44l.  There has never been enough water pressure down  there so we may
have to look at the piping there to make sure it is adequate but those three motors, those two pumps would have enough pressure to irrigate the whole District with the addition of the park, FPL and any other areas. I have got that from Kevin and I am going to go over it with him one more time to make sure because I want to be 100% positive that is the case. He assures me it is. I am looking to make that connection. The price for that connection is $9,625.63. The original proposal I got was up over $11,000. I told him you need to sharpen your pencil and he came back right before the meeting with $9,625.63.
Mr. Morgan: When you're saying that, to make that connection is $9,600 but to fix this pump down here it's $6,000 but the pump down here would only be a temporary pump.
Mr. Baldis: Right because we are going to put a whole new pump station in. So it would be wasted money. When we put that in we would have to make that connection
Mr. Morgan: That connection would make it easier for us in the future too.
Mr. Baldis: We would be ready to roll right away. The only other connections we would have to do is find these two on this one here and find this one and make sure that they are still there. I know that they are there. Hook it up and then we will be able to do all that. That's what we figured out myself, Hoover and Robert from BrightView. We thought that would be the best option at this time.
Mr. Morgan: What would be the timeframe over here?
Mr. Baldis: The new pump?

September 24, 2018

Turtle Run CDD

Mr. Morgan: The new pump right here, what would be the timeframe on that?
Mr. Baldis: That is what I am going to talk to Hoover about. He knows and it is not as elaborate as the other one. He will jump on that. It will be more permitting than anything. You know how that process goes.
Mr. Morgan: Ok. If you think that is the plan and you have two people agreeing with you. Have you had a chance to talk to Chris about it?
Mr. Baldis: Yes.  I went and bounced this off of him as soon as this pump went
down.
-- 		Mr. Morgan,  Any questions regarding that?	 - --  - - Mr. Carney:  Makes sense.
Mr. Morgan: What is the amount you need Dennis? Mr. Baldis: $9,625.63
Mr. Morgan:  We need a motion  on that to fix the connection  on the pumping
system.

September 24, 2018

Mr. Baldis: Yes. It is the same price we paid last year. Several years in a row. I told you about the two reflectors. Chris and I walked the school wall. The cable TV is not in the easement, it is on the school property. There is some large trees there, a banyan tree which has grown around the fence. We are still going to have to go with Keith & Schnars to come up with a plan to submit to the city when we get to that point with the
wall. We did look at that.  The Board approved removal of bottlebrush trees within the

District.

We have a situation with that with the city.	A permit was applied for.

BrightView is instructed to start taking the trees out before they got the  permit. Three- - -- -- - --- -- homeowners on Turtle Run Boulevard went out to the city manager and complained.
They put that on hold until we can submit a plan showing exactly where all the trees that
are going to be mitigated. I don't know the amount yet but there is going to be a fine. It is not going to be a dollar fine, it is going to be a requirement to add additional mitigation trees. So that is on hold right now until Robert can come up with a plan, present it to the city and get approval so we can move forward.
Mr. Morgan: The permit had not been ok'd by the city yet. Mr. Baldis: It wasn't issued, it was applied for.
Mr. Morgan: For all the bottlebrushes. Has it been approved since then? Mr. Baldis: No this just happened. It happened late last week
Mr. Morgan:  Do they plan to hold up the permit or is that still processing?
Mr. Baldis: The permit will not be processed until we provide them with an exact plans where every tree is going to go.
Mr. Morgan: So they stopped the work with the bottlebrush trees.  Ok Didn't we approve something for mitigation for the bottlebrush trees? $18,000?
Mr. Baldis: It was more than that.
Mr. Pawelczyk:  $39,297 for 88 trees at the last meeting.
Mr. Morgan: So the city wants us to put in more trees because we jumped the gun a little bit on a permit?
Mr. Baldis:  That is what I am being told correct.

Mr. Morgan: Ok I would suggest that we hold off all planting of all kinds because we plan to plant by the new passive park. I think we have a couple of estimates anywhere from $12,000 to $20,000 from Robert. We are planning to put more material in so we hold off on all planting of everything until we find out what the ruling is and we just add whatever the additional mitigation they want to put that in the passive park We plan to landscape the passive park anyway.
Mr. Baldis: That is where a lot of it was going. It is just homeowners went out there and complained. I had a discussion with Casey Lee the City Forester and so did Robert. We said this is what we are doing and she said this is what you are-going to have to do. We said ok. The permit was applied for. There was just not an official plan and when the residents went up there they city manager got involved and said you can't do this.
Mr. Morgan: Casey Lee didn't stand up for us and say I talked to these guys.
Mr. Baldis: I am sure she did but there were residents who went up there in person and were causing a stink.
Mr. Morgan: The city staff should speak up and tell the city manager and complain
to him that I gave these people permission.  We already have worked out a mitigation plan and it has all been resolved.
Mr. Baldis: I understand what you are saying. I am just explaining to you what I
know.
Mr. Morgan: Ok I think that is an easy resolvable thing. We just hold up any other plantings and add that mitigation.  Did we approve money for the passive park?
Mr. Baldis:  Just the mitigation.  The stuff for the mitigation.
Mr. Morgan:  I am saying for the passive park we were waiting for a design for
that.
Mr. Baldis: Right exactly.
Mr. Morgan: We haven't agreed on a design for that.
Mr. Baldis: No.  And we have the park down at Turtle Creek, the new walking
area.

September 24, 2018

Turtle Run CDD

Mr. Morgan: Right so just get Robert to design those into his mitigation plan. Mr. Baldis: That is what we are doing.
Mr. Morgan:  Problem solved.  I am just a problem solver tonight.
Mr. Baldis: Ok I have one more item about the roundabout, the fountain area and the artificial turf. I talked to the playground guy and I brought you the price, he said it was like $15,000 to do around the fountain.
Mr. Morgan: Just around the fountain. This little area?
Mr. Baldis: Yes.  This was like $115,000 to do all of them.  I have no experience in

--putting this type of grass in this artificial turf and I started thinking and

BrightView does because they put football fields and baseball fields in. So I met with Robert and one of the upper management people there and I talked to them about this. They said they do that and I also mentioned to them that we have been giving them a lot of business. We went from the point of we were on the verge of rebidding it out and redoing the bid. We took the fertilization off them. They got the opportunity to change and step up to the plate and they did. They are willing to help us if we want to put the artificial turf in around all these other areas. They also told me for appreciation of all the work and how things are going that they will put the artificial turf around the fountain and they will pay for it.
Mr. Morgan: For the turf and the installation?
Mr. Baldis: The installation of the artificial turf around the fountain they will pay
for.
Mr. Morgan:  Not the turf itself, just the installation?
Mr. Baldis: No the turf and the installation. It will be a finished product and they are going to pay for that.
Mr. Pfeiffer: That is great.
Mr. Baldis: Thank you. They agreed to it. I confirmed it today right before this meeting because I didn't want to speak out of turn. They also told me that they measured this and it is going to be, they are looking at $110,000.  This is a lot.  Part of the issue is
that you are going to when we put the poles in here we now change the grade where the

22

September 24, 2018

Turtle Run CDD

zoysia is. The zoysia grass needs to be level or it gets scalped. It has to be perfectly flat. Itis going to have to be taken out again and regraded where the poles are and all that. It is an expensive proposition.
Mr. Morgan: What did you say the price was to do it all?
Mr. Baldis: For Rory May the playground guy, he was at $15,500 and they are telling me it is like $105,000. It is up there.
Mr. Morgan: We can get the roundabout for free.
Mr. Baldis: We can get around the fountain for free. Chris and I spoke and we were going to talk to some other people who sell this turf for these other locations but they haven't been out there. Chris told me that he the guy looked at them on Google and he came up with a price over $100,000 but he wanted to come out and measure for sure. So that is where that is. I guess the good news is the fountain will do if you guys are ok with it. I also wanted to ask them because there is different types of turf. I have no experience in this and they know. Instead of me trying to learn all this I am like I will ask them because they know. That is what I did.
Mr. Carney: I think with the chlorine spray it is a great idea to do it around the fountain. Now we go back to St. Augustine grass, it looks good but we are not putting golf balls.
Mr. Morgan: I have to agree with Skip.  You have to look at cost and effect.  Here is the thing, how much would it cost us to re-sod that totally or BrightView would handle that too?
Mr. Baldis:  Just a quick, the St. Augustine I haven't had that conversation.
Mr. Morgan: If you took out all this zoysia grass it has to be done, you are looking at probably 15 pallets of sod. I don't know.
Mr. Baldis: I would be happy to present that and I would present that to them.
You are not going to have to cut the zoysia grass anymore.
Mr. Morgan: I would get two or three things.  Get the Board the option of redoing
the grass we currently have because it is terrible. Put back St. Augustine and how much that would cost us and the whole area in artificial turf.  How much that would cost us

23

September 24, 2018

Turtle Run CDD

and let us see what is the cost effect of each, to take out the zoysia grass and put back the St. Augustine grass it is going to be $20,000 or $30,000. I don't know how much sod it is, I have no idea. I would like to know what that fixed cost is so then I weigh that fixed cost against the artificial turf and that type of thing. Itis not going to increase our mowing or watering because we are already mowing and watering now.
Mr. Pawelczyk: I think it would look a lot better if you put St. Augustine in the
areas around, not immediately around the fountain that should be turf.  Nothing can

grow there.

I think grass is going to look better because you can tell it is turf.  Those

- - areas are such a focus point when you drive around the roundabout	just think if it is something other than grass it is going to look funny.
Mr. Morgan: I think it was a good idea initially to upscale it but if it didn't work out for us like something else we put a tree in somewhere and it didn't work out for us we change it a couple years later.
Mr. Carney:  It has been a year now, the centerpiece of our community has not looked  good.
Mr. Pawelczyk: I have a question and it is just because I don't know when a football team or a high school or college replaces their turf, what do they do with it?
Mr. Carney:  They sell them.
Mr. Pawelczyk: I am saying why do you need new. It doesn't matter if you are going to surface the whole thing, you could buy the used turf. It still looks the same. It still looks green as the day it was put in.
Mr. Morgan: I don't know.
Mr. Zuccaro: They cut them by rows so when you go to demo something like this I don't think they can reuse it.
Mr. Baldis: He is saying that they cut it in strips. I don't know. Anyway I will come back with a price for the sod at the next meeting.
Mr. Morgan: It hasn't been nice. I think maybe we should go back to St. Augustine
grass. That would be my first inkling but based on the cost. If it is going to cost us $30,000 or $40,000 to return it to where it was with just St. Augustine grass you start weighing

24

September 24, 2018

that maybe the turf might be a better option. I don't know but let us hear all our options. I think some Board member would prefer the whole community to be artificial turf, some of our Board members.
Mr. Carney: I think that this one.
Mr. Morgan: Let us know Dennis.	Maybe somebody is responsible for the way the landscaping looks there and maybe they are willing to possibly work with us on that.
Mr. Baldis: I will talk to them about it.
Mr. Morgan: It is not our fault that the grass there looks that bad.
Mr. Baldis: All the other plant material is doing fine: - The grass Rusty is there every week he has people. He told me we have no bugs on any of the plant material. There is some sedge grass growing that goes with watering and it is going to come and go. He is monitoring it. I am not hearing the amount of complaints that I did before he started. I am telling you he is out there every day. You see a guy on that gator walking around spraying stuff and looking. I am real happy with what he has done. That is all I have for you.
Mr. Morgan: Do you have anything under field manager?	Anything for the manager?
Mr. Baldis: Not right now.

Supervisor Requests

Mr. Morgan: Item #10 Supervisor requests or any comments?
Mr. Carney: I just have one thing, the graffiti on the Burlington Coat Factory wall is that?
Mr. Baldis: I sent that to them yesterday. I didn't look to see if he got it today. I will ask them.
Mr. Morgan: Zaida do you have anything? Ms. Karnegis: Nothing.
Mr. Morgan: I have two things Dennis. One, somebody down by when I was jogging Saturday, it looked like Lake Rachel the sign has been torn off over there and destroyed. It was laying on the ground. It looks like it has been vandalized. Can we get that sign or if it is still there today.
Mr. Baldis: I will make sure that it is gone if not today it will be tomorrow.
Mr. Morgan: Also Saturday, the bus stop at in front of Walmart on Turtle Creek, is our porter responsible for emptying those garbage cans?
Mr. Baldis: He empties it a couple of times a week. I am going to have him empty that Friday before he leaves.
Mr. Morgan: The picture I took and sent to you Saturday, it didn't look like it had been emptied for more than a week. I don't know if it fills up that fast but that was the condition Saturday which tells me he either forgot it. So we have returned to the discussion that you and I have had before where how do you hold a porter accountable for things?
Mr. Baldis: Robert does. When I see something I report it to Robert.

Mr. Morgan: Ok if Robert is not getting the job done, how you do hold the porter responsible for things?
Mr. Baldis:  Through Robert.  I would call Robert. Mr. Morgan:  Does Robert have a checklist?
Mr. Baldis: Yes he sent me a checklist.
Mr. Morgan: Does it have emptying the garbage cans? He may forget. He may be busy I understand but how about across the street in front of Cypress Pointe, is there a trash receptacle there?
-  -Mr. Baldis: Yes there is.
Mr. Morgan: Does that one get emptied by a porter? Mr. Baldis: I believe so.
Mr. Morgan: So there is three or four locations where a porter empties a trash receptacle. The roundabout. I don't know if there is one up there by the Grove Apts. There is a receptacle or two in there. Cypress Pointe and Walmart and the park. There is four or five locations, how do you know they are done on a weekly basis or twice a week?
Mr. Baldis: I don't inspect them unless I see something or someone tells me, then I follow up. I don't go behind them.
Mr. Morgan: I don't suspect that you should have to. This is what his job is. When a Board member sends you pictures where a trash can and this isn't the first time, this is the fifth time I have sent you pictures where the trash cans aren't being emptied. What do you do? What type of corrective action do you take with BrightView and our porter to make sure this doesn't continue to happen?
Mr. Baldis: All I can do is complain to him and tell him to make sure he does it. I can tell him to increase the times he empties it. I can have him take pictures with his phone with a time stamper.
Mr. Morgan: If Robert's job is not getting the job done and it comes back to you,
you tell Robert there is a disconnect somewhere out of the three of you that you are not getting the job  done for the community.

September 24, 2018

Turtle Run CDD

Mr. Baldis:  I will ask him to have the porter time stamp a photo when it is done so we know when it was done.
Mr. Morgan: At least every Friday before the weekend.
Mr. Baldis: No big deal for him to send it. He texts all the time. I cleaned it at this time. Here is the picture.
Mr. Morgan: Do you know if the porter knows the five or six locations where we have garbage cans?
Mr. Baldis: I am sure he knows. He has been there a long time.
Mr. Morgan: Ok so he knows the locations we are talking about. Walmart, Cypress Pointe, Lake Katie, the roundabout, the park.
Mr. Baldis: The bus stop.
Mr. Morgan: There is at least six that we just named right now.  Alright. Mr. Baldis: I will talk to him tomorrow about that.
Mr. Morgan: That is all I have.  Anybody else have anything?  Dennis anything
else?
Mr. Baldis: I am good.
