EIGHTH ORDER OF BUSINESS	Staff Reports
A.	Attorney
Mr. Cochran: Thanks, Mike is still on vacation, so I am covering for him tonight. Just have one more question. I believe this is something that is done year to year where we recognize some additional contributions from the District staff and in this instance, it is Mr. Julio Padilla and Mr. Patrick Szozda. It is an amendment to the District management agreement with GMS to recognize their contributions and increase their compensation by
$1,000 for the year for their contributions over and above the contractual requirements.
Mr. Morgan: Which would be broken down to? Mr. Cochran: $500 apiece.
Mr. Morgan: Ok.

On MOTION by Mr. Morgan seconded by Mr. Hohl with all in favor, an amendment to the District management agreement with GMS in the amount of $1,000 for Mr. Julio Padilla and Mr. Patrick Szozda for their contribution to the District was approved.

Mr. Carney: Thank you for doing that. Anything else? Mr. Cochran: That is all I have to report at this time.

B.	Engineer - Update on Cypress Pointe Flagpole Improvements
Mr. Geiger: Good evening, so we have been in contact with Keith Phillips with the Eagle Group. He is the electrician that Pat had recommended. I believe he has done work for Turtle Run. We were having a hard time with Adams Electric getting a proposal back

that included the cost of the fixtures. I heard from him today. He was not able to get a formal proposal to me in time, but he did tell me including the cost of the fixtures he can get it done for $9,000 was his all-in price. The fixtures alone cost $5,696 for both of those. Him having to acquire the fixtures through a supply company I guess the manufacturer does not sell directly, you have to go through a distribution company. They were $2,678 a piece plus the shipping and his cost. For the fixtures, it is $5,696. $9,000 less that is labor and the other materials such as the conduit and wire comes out to $3,304. The original proposal we had from Adams Electric without the fixtures was $4,530 so this is
$1,226 cheaper than our original proposal with getting the same fixtures which I don't think he could have gotten the fixtures any cheaper. This is pretty much the cost plus a handling fee. I would like to be able to ask him to prepare a formal proposal if the Board is ok with $9,000 for the electrical work on this. It is literally the last piece we were waiting on to be able to get the contractor, everything permits document-wise because he needed total project costs to be able to submit to the City.
Mr. Carney: Did you find them to be reliable? We haven't had any luck with electricians lately.
Mr. Geiger: I haven't worked with him personally. I know Pat has. He has done a
lot of work in Coral Bay from what I understand, another community that we engineer for and everything.
Mr. Morgan: We will be out there watching him, right?
Mr. Geiger: I will, and the GC will. He will be a sub to the GC. He used to do gas stations he said with all of this he moved away from that because of the chemical involvements and everything and the environmental issues. He told me the work that he has done in Turtle Run recently he noticed that there is a lot of shoddy old electrical work. He doesn't do things that way and he has tried correcting some things where he has been called out. Using the wrong color wires and everything was going on with previous electricians. From interactions with him, I do have a lot of confidence that he will be able to get the job done. He has already asked about reaching out to the GC. The only thing his costs does not include obviously is permit fees. Normally the District would pay the permit fees. He would be responsible for processing the permits. He is going to have to excavate to put the conduit in and he said it would be a little bit more expensive if he had

to get a third party out there, but I am waiting on a call back from 3D Paving to make sure that since they are going to have an excavator on site that they can dig out the trench with the conduit. He said it wouldn't be too much than the $9,000 but I am pretty sure we can get 3D Paving to do that regardless. Even if it is going to cost a small change order, it is going to be cheaper than allowing the electrician to sub that out to a third party.
Mr. Carney: So what is your total cost on that plus permits?
Mr. Geiger: The $9,000 would be the total cost of the whole project. Mr. Carney: Just the electric.
Mr. Geiger: He said he could do it for $9,000 with the fixtures and I believe last
time they did the electrical permit it was $100 for the permit. That is at least what I have written down here. It was the same amount of lights. I think he said it was $100 per outlet and I believe we are just pulling off one box. He said he would get a formal proposal based on the $9,000.
Mr. Carney: Why don't we work on that then?
Mr. Geiger: I will tell them to get it in front of us for the next meeting so we can get that formally approved. Then I do know that I believe GMS is working on getting the contract with the flagpole company signed.
Mr. Padilla: Yes.
Mr. Geiger: Has that happened yet?
Mr. Padilla: I can send the Board an email tomorrow finding out where we are on that but yes, we are working on it.
Mr. Geiger: The other thing with that is does the Board have to authorize the
deposit on that once that contract is signed or is that covered with accepting their proposal? They need a 50% deposit for engineering drawings that we need to submit for permitting so it is not an additional cost. They are not going to order or have the poles manufactured or on their slate until they get that deposit.
Mr. Morgan: What was the cost of the poles?
Mr. Geiger: They were $16,006 including the engineering drawings so a 50% deposit on that I am not sure if it 50% of the material or the total cost. You are looking at about $8,000 to release them to order the poles and get 3D the rest of the information.
Mr. Morgan: Didn't we vote on the poles already?

Mr. Geiger: Yes. I am just asking if the Board needs to approve releasing a deposit or if that is something that once we get a contract signed.
Mr. Morgan: If it is already approved I would imagine you could release a deposit to them. If not, I will make a motion that we do that.
Mr. Padilla: If it is not in the contract we will need a motion, but I don't remember
what the contract says.
Mr. Geiger: I have to look at the contract. I know it is on their proposal which is attached as an exhibit, and I know in the past when Stanford was in charge of things he billed them out. He gave them a 50% deposit and billed the District for it basically.
Mr. Carney: We approved the total project.
Mr. Cochran: Normally, and I don't know it sounds like what has already happened was an approval of the proposal and an agreement was prepared including the proposal as an exhibit so normally what the agreement does it has payment terms in there which usually are consistent with the proposal for something like this. I would say just to be safe in case what was approved is different than that you could just authorize to pay a deposit at 50% to proceed with it to the extent that it is not already covered by the agreement.
Mr. Padilla: Would direction be enough, or do we need a motion? Mr. Cochran: I would say go ahead and do a motion just in case.

On MOTION by Mr. Morgan seconded by Mr. Hohl with all in favor, a motion to authorize a 50% deposit to the flagpole company for Cypress Pointe Flagpole Improvements was approved.

Mr. Geiger: I will make sure at the next meeting you have a proposal from the electrician to approve and then I would imagine we will need a small project agreement on that as well for him to sign off on. That is where that stands. If we can get the proposal approved at the next meeting formally, I am hoping to have everything for the contractor before we break for the holiday season. That is all I had on that. My other quick update on the signposts, I am still waiting for the final invoices on that. I have not received anything. I am still waiting for them to place the traffic stickers on the back of the two No U-Turn signs installed. As I stated the last meeting if they submit the invoices and I see

that hasn't been done yet, I am going to hold the change order 1 for $8,000 back until they complete that work because it is required by Broward County to get those stickers on there. It is something that if we let go we are never going to see Horsepower again.
Mr. Carny: I agree. Ok.
C.	Field Manager
Mr. Szozda: The mulch has been completed throughout the neighborhood. Also, the sanding of Turtle Run Boulevard on both sides, the east and west is completed, and the tightening of all the pavers over there. They did a really nice job. The repairs are complete from the car entering the lake also including the two maples that were planted today so you really can't tell anything happened in there. They got at it quickly and did a nice job cleaning it up.
Mr. Morgan: I have a question for you. Where are we at as far as the insurance claim on that accident? And where are we at as far as the insurance claim on the light pole at Creekside by PetSmart?
Mr. Burgess: The accident at Lake Katie I am speaking to the adjuster tomorrow. I called her this past Saturday. I filed a claim with her once I got the crash report, the police report. The additional claims we are speaking about I believe it is Horsepower as far as the installation started.
Mr. Morgan: We worked out a settlement with them as far as the pole? Mr. Burgess: As far as the?
Mr. Morgan: The light pole at Creekside that got knocked down for the second

time.

Mr. Szozda: The one at Creekside and Terrapin.
Mr. Hohl: There is one down on Turtle Creek Drive and Creekside as well. Mr. Szozda: Yes.
Mr. Burgess: I don't believe we worked on a settlement.
Mr. Morgan: I thought they wanted to prorate the pole at a $500 difference, and we

said to go ahead and accept and move on with that. Do you know anything about that Julio?
Mr. Padilla: For the first two yes, I am going to bring that at the next Board meeting.
For the third one, Patrick should update you.

Mr. Burgess: We haven't heard back from her. As far as Creekside, Direct General Insurance is the company. I reached out, I just haven't heard back from her yet.
Mr. Morgan: The one I wanted to talk to Jonathan about was the pole that has been knocked down. Are you familiar with that one?
Mr. Geiger: Creekside and Turtle Creek, yes.
Mr. Morgan: It has been knocked down twice in that location. For whatever reason, it has been knocked down twice in a year and a half give or take. Can we relocate that pole maybe another 20 feet down the median? Is that possible even?
Mr. Geiger: Further back?
Mr. Morgan: Further south towards Sample.
Mr. Geiger: That is going to be more doable than going further because then they would have to bore conduit.
Mr. Morgan: So the conduit runs from the south towards that pole.
Mr. Geiger: Yes and it probably runs up towards Sample. I am not too familiar with
, the amount of effort it would take. I don't know if they have to move the pole box but that would be something to maybe ask an electrician about. They can install it anywhere, it is going to be getting the service out to it.
Mr. Morgan: Right but I am figuring if the electricity is in the median running to that pole it is probably to the south of that pole coming up in that median to that pole. If we could maybe move it back 15 or 20 feet. That pole has been run over twice even though it is forty feet off the roadway, and is in the middle of the median and it has been hit twice.
Mr. Geiger: The only issue I can see is them having where the wires are coming up from the conduit now in one place. I don't know the amount of effort it would take to move that. I am entirely familiar with how that all works. That would be a question Mainnor might be able to answer, did his brother do the electrical engineering plans?
Mr. Morgan: Can you look it up for us?
Mr. Geiger: Yes, I can ask about that and give him a call. Mr. Hohl: Maybe that will make a difference.
Mr. Carney: Also the one thing we did talk about at the last meeting was when these light poles get knocked down we just need to replace them and then work with the

insurance company. We are going to replace them, otherwise they will stay down for six months and that doesn't make any sense.
Mr. Morgan: Pat and I have already talked about this. I don't know, can we remove
the pole out of there and just leave the conduit and wires there because you have a stump sticking out?
Mr. Szozda: I think Julio has been in contact with Mainnor and I think he was
waiting for something to get that pole out of there.
Mr. Padilla: His recommendation is to do it all when the pole is going to be installed because the City has also been asking him about that instead of going out to just dig it out and then wait. It is going to be more expensive too.
Mr. Morgan: I understand that, however to have a pole that is chopped off about 4 feet high in the median there that is laying to one side, it looks really trashy. I don't know what the cost is to pull it out of the ground and disconnect, it may be a lot of money I don't know and to do it all in one shot could be an option. However, if we decide to relocate that pole I am just saying it is something to look into as to what we can do there. I think you and I spoke about that.
Mr. Szozda: Yes.
Mr. Carney: I agree. It looks absolutely terrible.
Mr. Szozda: I agree 100%. We can just get rid of it and install it later.
Mr. Padilla: If the Board chooses maybe a not to exceed and if it is more we can come back and have Mainnor just take care of it. He will do it through Horsepower. I already spoke to him about that.
Mr. Morgan: We can also add that to the expense of the insurance claim with the removal of the old pole. We are the victims here.
Mr. Burgess: Yes. I have all the invoices for installation and everything.
Mr. Morgan: The field manager has the power to spend up to $3,500 to have something repaired. It shouldn't be something the Board needs to vote on.
Ms. Karnegis: I think by now we also have the experience of what we are looking for and how much it is going to cost so it should be a lot easier.
Mr. Carney: Anything else on that topic or are we ok?

Mr. Burgess: As far as the geo-tubes I did speak with Mr. Joe Anderson, American Shoreline Restoration. I sent him some pictures. He is intending to stop by. He is in North Florida so he is trying to make it in all one trip to see if he can provide us with solutions on how to fix the geo-tubes ourselves or if there is a company that can do it. Typically a smaller project like that most big companies won't do it, but he is willing to help us. A very nice guy and he communicates really well so he is going to help us out as much as he can as far as repairing this.
Mr. Carney: Is that what he does? He does geo-tubes?
Mr. Burgess: Yes. He also mentioned Solitude might be able to as well. I didn't see anything on their website, so we are reaching out to them. I reached out to about five different companies, and I only heard back from one. Even the original company that installed it, but I haven't heard back from them.
Mr. Carney: Ok. What else do you guys have? Mr. Szozda: That is it.
Mr. Carney: Do you want to talk about Christmas lights at all Pat?
Mr. Szozda: Basically, I had a conversation with Joe today, and due to the weather issues and acts of God he basically stated he is nine days behind in his installations, but he said on Friday which is pretty much contractual December 1st everything has to be functional. My only recommendation is to move forward so that we get that tree done as early as possible. Contractually it has to go under contract because everything else is functioning basically except the big blue tree, but it is the highlight pretty much of that area. Contractually it is December 1st and that I when he said it would be done.
Mr. Carney: Last year we ran into an issue with securing the Nativity set. I am not sure how it ever got accomplished, Lance do you recall? Did you do it?
Mr. Morgan: I have done it in years past, but Joe's guys secured the cable to the items that we installed. Then they missed a few pieces and I had to run out there with some extra cable I had and secured it, but they did it last year for the most part.
Mr. Carney: What is it an eyebolt that screws down into the ground?
Mr. Morgan: Yes. Some of these figures are five feet high and at the bottom of each one, we took a zip saw and cut a hole in them. We took an eyebolt and screwed in the side so a cable could go through so nobody can just grab them like they did in years

past. They stole Mary and Joseph one year. These things are five feet tall, and they stole baby Jesus another year. Now each piece is locked down with an eyebolt with a cable. The good thing about cable is it is very hard to cut. So there is an eyebolt in each piece and a cable that runs through the eyebolt in the back of each piece. Each piece is locked to a cable that runs from end to end. It goes through each one. If they are going to steal one they are going to steal them all. We will double-check the work that they do.
Mr. Carney: You got that? Mr. Szozda: Yes, sir.
Mr. Carney: You said Joe is going to have somebody out there every night checking lights?
Mr. Szozda: I went actually Thursday, Thanksgiving, and everything was lit. Everything. Cypress Pointe, the whole neighborhood was lit. I expressed my concerns about GFl's popping so easily like Mike said some of the trees are out. It is a simple fix but nonetheless, it is not on. As of last Friday they were going to be out nightly.
Mr. Morgan: So Harbor Island is working? Mr. Szozda: Yes.
Mr. Morgan: At the roundabout one of the palm trees was out totally this week and one of the heads of another palm tree was out.
Mr. Szozda: Yes it is probably a GFI. They should be out there tonight.
Mr. Shipe: Last night all the palms at the roundabout were working when we came
in.
Mr. Morgan: As soon as the blue tree goes up December 1st is when the nativity
set goes up.
Mr. Szozda: Yes sir. Everything should be done.
Mr. Morgan: You expressed your concerns about the wet ground that we have in front of that blue tree.
Mr. Szozda: I expressed that. I walked up there today, and it is nice. It is dry and
I expressed to Joe there is a chance of rain towards the end of the week.
Mr. Morgan: He is going to use plywood underneath the wheels of the truck. Mr. Szozda: He said he was going to use every precaution possible.
Mr. Morgan: Ok.

Mr. Carney: Anything else on that? Mr. Szozda: No sir.
Mr. Carney: Julio anything else?
D.	Manager
Mr. Padilla: I don't have anything to report under manager.

NINTH ORDER OF BUSINESS	Financial Reports
A.	Financial Report on Capital Projects, Emergency Funds, Capital Reserve and All Other Financial Issues
B.	Approval of Check Register
C.	Balance Sheet and Income Statement
Mr. Carney: Financial report on capital projects it is pretty much the same as well as the emergency funds, capital reserve and other financial issues. We need approval for the check register. Can I have a motion to approve, please?

On MOTION by Ms. Karnegis seconded by Mr. Morgan with all in favor, the Check Register was approved.

Mr. Carney: Balance sheet and income statement a motion to approve, please.

On MOTION by Mr. Morgan seconded by Ms. Karnegis with all in favor, the Balance Sheet and Income Statement were approved.

TENTH ORDER OF BUSINESS	Supervisors Requests
Mr. Carney: Supervisors requests, Lance?
Mr. Morgan: Chris is no longer here on the Board; my question is who is going to head up the liaison between I don't know if we are going forward with that or what we are doing regarding the lawyer or the firm that we hired to look into this. We sent a letter of demand or the first step that we have taken. Somebody is going to have to follow up with those people and proceed for the Board I guess.
Mr. Carney: Julio, what do you have on that?
Mr. Padilla: We will have some more information at the next meeting regarding the options that are going to be presented to the Board. We are going to request that the

Board choose an option. We are not prepared to discuss it today. I spoke to Mike about it, and he said the best thing to do was to bring it back at the next meeting.
Mr. Morgan: Ok.
Mr. Cochran: He shared that with me as well, but it would be better for him to be here to discuss that with you all at the next meeting.
Mr. Carney: What else Lance? Mr. Morgan: That is about it.
Mr. Carney: Mike?
Mr. Hohl: I would like to read a letter that I will submit tonight addressed to the Chairman. It has been my distinct pleasure to serve on the Board of Supervisors for the Turtle Run Community Development District. Unfortunately, I must resign my position as Assistant Secretary. I will be moving out of Turtle Run at the beginning of December 2022 and will no longer be able to serve on the Board. My resignation will be effective immediately following tonight's meeting. I would like to thank the residents of Turtle Run for giving me the opportunity to serve them during these past two years. I trust that Turtle Run will become an even better community than it already is. My sincere thanks to the GMS staff and the members of the Turtle Run COD Board. Best wishes to all of you.
Mr. Carney: Thank you.
Mr. Hohl: Do you want this, or do you want me to email it?
Mr. Cochran: You will need to submit it to the Supervisor of Elections, but you have the form there.
Mr. Hohl: Yes.
Mr. Carney: Thank you for your service. You will be missed. I appreciate very much what you have done. Zaida?
Ms. Karnegis: Nothing. Mr. Carney: Ok. Rob?
Mr. Shipe: A couple of months ago they were doing a report on the drainage system and doing the big drains and whether they needed to dig out. Did that ever get resolved? As we were campaigning I had a lot of people talk to me about Terrapin Lane and the flooding that occurs along there. I was just curious if that has anything to do with the piping and the restrictions on some of those pipes.

Mr. Hohl: That particular one is the City's responsibility and there may be something in the drain. I know when they did the road they had to put barriers up and maybe one of those fell in there. We really need to get the City to come out there and do that. That was something that was told to me by somebody who lives in Harbor Island who happens to be the Utilities Director for Pompano Beach. That was his thought on it.
Mr. Carney: Actually the City was out cleaning some of our drains.
Mr. Morgan: They came out this past week but just to pick up on what you said, we have had problems with that drain before. Just recently there was a problem with it. Pat, behind that wall where the piping comes out the ground there, those big pipes that come out of the ground, maybe I can meet you over there tomorrow or Wednesday and we can look in there and see what we can see. We would have to get the City out there for that. It does back up.
Mr. Carney: Is that on Terrapin? Mr. Hohl: Yes.
Mr. Carney: Behind Harbor Island?
Mr. Morgan: Well across the street from Harbor Island but I guess it would be a little bit south of Harbor Island where there is a big pipe behind Mark Corlew's wall there.
Mr. Carney: I will tell you where we really have drainage issues is Lowe's. There is like two or three feet of water over there at one time.
Mr. Morgan: I don't believe to answer your question that doesn't have anything to do with our pipes. The worst pipe from the report was only about 12 to 16 inches of sediment and it wasn't that pipe.
Mr. Shipe: So they didn't go in and reduce if? I know there was debate about whether it was going to need to be done. So they just inspected it and signed it off as ok?
Mr. Morgan: Yes. Mr. Shipe: Ok.
Mr. Hohl: What you just said about Lowe's, has anybody evaluated that?
Mr. Szozda: For what it was worth I went in and had a conversation with the manager over there and basically voiced our concern. I said a lot of the residents here drive through here and besides the water standing, there is a giant pothole there too. It

needs to be addressed. Of course that probably went nowhere, maybe we could put together a letter and send it to corporate. She was the manager.
Mr. Burgess: I called the City as well and they said it was Lowe's property and they would have to deal with it.
Mr. Morgan: That location?
Mr. Burgess: Yes. It is their parking lot basically. There is a giant hole. Mr. Carney: There was two feet of water there one day.
Mr. Szozda: Yes.
Mr. Carney: That drain does not take water. I am not sure what is going on with that drain.
Mr. Morgan: Skip, when does the wreaths and the other ornaments go on the walls? Do you know? Is that the first also?
Mr. Carney: I am asking them to put them on ASAP which I guess is going to be
the 1st now.
Mr. Szozda: Again and I don't know how the Board chooses to handle it, he is nine days behind but contractually, it has to be done by Friday.
Mr. Morgan: I know you say he is nine days behind, but actually according to my watch he is about 24 days behind.
Mr. Szozda: I don't disagree with you.
Mr. Morgan: Usually everything is up before November 3, 4 or 5, they get tested for a few weeks. We have everything come Thanksgiving. That is how it works every year and now this year we don't have the blue tree up.
Mr. Szozda: This is my first go-around through this. I have never worked with Joe before. I said contractually, I think it needs to be addressed that all these have moved forward because what he has is a lot of leeway right now. When we start talking about rebates or refunds but contractually, I think we are stuck at this point.
Mr. Carney: And we were early this year. We knew what we wanted early this year. Mr. Szozda: We were ready, that had nothing to do with it.
Ms. Karnegis: And he used the excuse of the bucket.
I
Mr. Szozda: That was it initially and now he has the bucket and now it is he is nine days behind and the guys are out of town.

Mr. Carney: The company is under new ownership.
Mr. Szozda: Yes that is another part. Maybe somebody else is calling the shots.
Obviously, that needs to be addressed at some point.
Mr. Hohl: Julio, can you look at the maintenance plan to see when we said that stuff was supposed to be done and make sure that is consistent with what we are saying tonight?
Mr. Padilla: Ok.
Mr. Burgess: I guess also on that note you maintained the maintenance time. Mr. Hohl: I sent you the excel spreadsheets.
Mr. Burgess: Yes.
Mr. Morgan: I have one more thing if I can Skip. I appreciate your service, Mike. I am the one that told you about this Board. You have done a good job for us. We have had a difference of opinion and that is what the Board is about. Mike's resigning and his resignation is effective immediately.
Mr. Cochran: Following the meeting tonight.
Mr. Morgan: Jim Ford is here. He has been a resident of Turtle Run for 25 years. He would like to speak and if the Board is willing, we might be able to replace Mike's seat tonight. I would like to give a minute for Jim Ford to speak on anything he might want to speak about and tell us why he thinks he could help out this Board and then we can make a motion.
Mr. Jim Ford: My legal name is Mark Ford. I live at 6760 NW 44th Street. We have been here 26 years. I have three grown children. Fortunately for us, we are dug in. We are not planning on leaving this community unless it is time for me to leave the earth. My wife and I have been married for 36 years. We take pride in our home. We just redid it all. I like how Turtle Run is. It is a very beautiful area and people are envious of us because we live here. If I could help that moving forward I would be willing to.
Mr. Carney: Thank you very much.
Mr. Morgan: I appreciate you coming Jim. I make a motion that Jim Ford.
Mr. Cochran: Point of order before that motion I think it would be an order to do a motion to accept the resignation of Mr. Hohl.

On MOTION by Mr. Morgan seconded by Ms. Karnegis with all in favor, the Letter of Resignation from Mr. Michael Hohl as Assistant Secretary of Turtle Run Community Development District was approved.

Mr. Morgan: I would like to make a motion; I think Jim has been in this community for a lot of years. He would be a good replacement. Skip, you know Jim personally.
Mr. Carney: I do know Jim.
Mr. Morgan: He has some experience in HOA's and other businesses. I think at one time he owned his own business here. I don't know if you still do or not Jim. That would be my motion that Jim takes Seat #5 and replace Mr. Hohl.
Mr. Shipe: Is there any discussion on this?
Mr. Hohl: It needs a second, but I would just like to say something. Just a point of personal privilege since it is my seat that is being replaced, one of the things that I think the Board needs to consider is a wider representation of the Turtle Run Community on the Board. What I mean by that is currently everybody that sits on this Board lives in the Estate of Turtle Run. There are four other sub-developments notwithstanding the apartment complexes that also make up Turtle Run. I really believe that we should reach out to those other communities to see if there are any interested parties that may want to serve on this Board and before that decision is made, I think it would behoove the Board just as we heard something tonight from Mr. Ford that we have each of those interested parties give us as a Board their information and that we go through a vetting and maybe even interviews in a public forum so that we can make an informed decision as to who needs to be put on the Board. I think that will do two things. Number one it will ensure that we all know the person that is going to be put on the Board because we have heard a lot about them and gone through a process and we have something to compare them with other candidates. I think it will also show the rest of the Turtle Run community that this is a Board that represents everybody, not just the Estates. I live in the Estates, but I really think that there should be representation from other sub-developments within Turtle Run. That is my thought on it. I know I will no longer be on the Board, but I would like the rest of the Board members to consider that. Nothing against Mr. Ford. This is the first time we have heard of your interest in the Board. It is not something that has to be done

immediately. I think the Board should consider looking at a process before making a decision.
Ms. Karnegis: When there is a seat that is empty can we put it out to the community, so everyone is aware? One of the things about our community is that a lot of them really don't know much about the COD. The only way that they know is if you really talk to them and try to educate them. Is there something that we can do when there is an open seat to put it out for the community for those that are interested in stepping forward? As a community we are all in this together, the COD belongs to the entire community because the representation is as Mike had said Turtle Run Estates right now. If we could put it out for others to be aware so it is not a hush-hush of no one knew about this. I was interested but I was not aware.
Mr. Morgan: Mike and Zaida make some good points. I would like to say this. Jim Ford is here. He knows about the open seat. He has requested to be on this Board. When we appointed Mike to the seat two years ago give or take this argument wasn't made or this discussion wasn't made, we put Mike on a seat. Six years ago when you first got on it was the same thing. Four years ago when you got on again the same thing happened. Again Jim Ford is here. He has requested the seat. I made a motion that needs a second. If you don't want to second, no harm no foul, it won't be passed but he is here and nobody else is here. I would imagine that Skip, Zaida, Mike, and maybe Mr. Shipe understood that he was resigning tonight. His resignation is already official. Is that correct, so if the motion is not seconded that is how the Board works I get that, but he is here. He requested the seat regardless of where he lives. He has been a Turtle Run resident for 25 or 30 years and he deserves consideration. Again he is here asking for a seat on this Board. My motion stands so it needs to be seconded.
Mr. Carney: Yes, Jim does desire consideration, but I think it would be a good idea to have an interviewing process and maybe put it out to the other HOA's in the community if there is anyone else that would be interested so everybody is not from the Estates.
Mr. Ford: With all due respect, if anybody from the other communities wanted to be on the seat then they would have run for the election. Am I correct in saying that?
Mr. Morgan: Possibly. They didn't show an interest then what are the chances of them showing an interest now?

Ms. Karnegis: We don't know. That is why we think it is fair to put it out.
Mr. Padilla: Regarding your question, it is something I will have to ask Rich and I can email the Board tomorrow.
Mr. Morgan: I have a motion on the table. It either needs to be seconded or not.
So my motion is that we fill Seat #5 with Jim Ford tonight. That is my motion.
Mr. Carney: Is there a second for the motion? Ok motion denied. Mr. Morgan: Thank you, that is all I have.
Mr. Shipe: The point of if somebody wanted to be in his position they might have, people, I don't know. I was the very first person to run against somebody. There have only been 3 out of 25 years that people know. You had to apply back in June. As we were canvassing the neighborhood and speaking with people, people don't know. We want the neighborhood to be involved. We want people to know. I don't think that people from the other HOA's in Turtle Run knew that Mike was going to step down tonight, so it wasn't like hey, let's get somebody to the meeting. It was not put out. I feel like we need representation from the Turtle Run community and not just the Estates. If that is what it comes down to then it is.
Mr. Carney: Jim can still be in the mix as far as the candidates that would want to be on the Board.
Mr. Ford: Thank you for considering that. Mr. Morgan: Thanks for coming Jim.
Mr. Carney: We appreciate you being here. May I have a motion to adjourn?

ELEVENTH ORDER OF BUSINESS   Adjournment
On MOTION by Mr. Morgan seconded by Mr. Hohl with all in favor, the meeting was adjourned.
