WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.120 --> 00:00:03.740 I want to bring that up now is after our Pledge of Allegiance, we observe a moment 2 00:00:03.760 --> 00:00:06.780 of silence, which is just another one of the many 3 00:00:06.860 --> 00:00:09.840 contributions that Carl made to our community. 4 00:00:09.860 --> 00:00:13.760 So if you will remember his family and friends during that 5 00:00:13.840 --> 00:00:17.590 moment of silence. And at this time, we will stand for the Pledge of 6 00:00:17.640 --> 00:00:18.160 Allegiance. 7 00:00:22.880 --> 00:00:26.420 I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of 8 00:00:26.480 --> 00:00:29.820 America, and to the Republic for which it stands, 9 00:00:30.360 --> 00:00:34.180 one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty 10 00:00:34.380 --> 00:00:35.600 and justice for all. 11 00:00:42.200 --> 00:00:44.980 Thank you. 12 00:00:50.800 --> 00:00:54.420 Carl was the very first resident member of the 13 00:00:54.460 --> 00:00:58.420 CDD One board, and so I think it's appropriate that we 14 00:00:58.940 --> 00:00:59.680 at least honor 15 00:01:01.080 --> 00:01:02.730 his time of service here. So, 16 00:01:03.900 --> 00:01:07.220 all right, at this point in time, we'd like to welcome our meeting attendees. 17 00:01:07.940 --> 00:01:11.420 If there's anyone that has something you want to address the board with, 18 00:01:12.040 --> 00:01:15.800 please come to the podium, give us your name and address for the record, 19 00:01:16.420 --> 00:01:17.640 and give us your comments. 20 00:01:23.380 --> 00:01:25.020 Okay. Seeing none, 21 00:01:26.060 --> 00:01:27.320 hearing none, we'll move along. 22 00:01:28.860 --> 00:01:32.460 On consent agenda, we are going to pull item B of the 23 00:01:32.520 --> 00:01:35.280 architectural review manual for the 24 00:01:36.100 --> 00:01:39.840 new business, but we will entertain a motion to approve the 25 00:01:39.900 --> 00:01:41.280 minutes from the last meeting. 26 00:01:42.260 --> 00:01:44.500 I move approval of the June 12th minutes. 27 00:01:45.540 --> 00:01:46.260 I have a motion. 28 00:01:46.440 --> 00:01:46.740 Second. 29 00:01:46.980 --> 00:01:50.640 Motion and second on the floor. Further discussion? All in favor say aye. 30 00:01:51.020 --> 00:01:51.360 Aye. 31 00:01:51.500 --> 00:01:54.520 Any opposed? Carries unanimously. All right. 32 00:01:54.620 --> 00:01:58.260 Let's talk about the architectural review manual modifications. 33 00:01:58.720 --> 00:02:01.520 We have Matt Armstrong here to take us through that. 34 00:02:01.620 --> 00:02:04.060 Good morning, board. Matt Armstrong with Community Standards. 35 00:02:04.140 --> 00:02:05.160 So yes, thank you for 36 00:02:07.060 --> 00:02:10.680 pulling from the consents. We had received an email from Supervisor Miller, and I 37 00:02:10.720 --> 00:02:13.720 just wanted to address some of the questions before we went through the approval 38 00:02:13.820 --> 00:02:17.440 process to make sure we were all on the same page and we were good to go. 39 00:02:18.380 --> 00:02:22.220 There were just some minor things that I just wanted to make sure that I understood 40 00:02:22.300 --> 00:02:24.690 also what he was requesting or seeking. 41 00:02:25.170 --> 00:02:29.100 And then if everyone's happy, we can approve as amended if there's any changes 42 00:02:29.180 --> 00:02:33.120 to it, or we can always bring it back next month if you prefer to do that 43 00:02:33.180 --> 00:02:33.580 as well. 44 00:02:33.740 --> 00:02:34.100 Okay. 45 00:02:35.400 --> 00:02:38.560 First thing was just a spelling thing for complementing. 46 00:02:39.020 --> 00:02:39.680 We'll make that 47 00:02:40.820 --> 00:02:44.200 adjustment. Then there was a question for page 12, a 48 00:02:44.240 --> 00:02:45.660 clarification on 49 00:02:46.580 --> 00:02:50.200 ARCA approval for coatings and installing pavers on driveways. 50 00:02:52.240 --> 00:02:56.180 That we will remove or redact the addition that you 51 00:02:56.200 --> 00:02:59.400 will see on page 12 where it says, "Unless there is an active decompliance 52 00:02:59.460 --> 00:03:03.420 violation on the property." That should only be if you don't have already 53 00:03:03.440 --> 00:03:06.980 an architectural approval process in place, whereas you do. 54 00:03:07.400 --> 00:03:10.280 Many other districts, actually, there's only three districts that require ARC 55 00:03:10.340 --> 00:03:13.940 approval for driveways. You are one of those three. Everyone else does not. 56 00:03:13.980 --> 00:03:17.730 So that kind of caused some conflict when someone did have a violation on their 57 00:03:17.760 --> 00:03:21.340 property for a very bright and vibrant driveway. 58 00:03:21.460 --> 00:03:21.690 Mm-hmm. 59 00:03:21.760 --> 00:03:25.240 So we would make them ask them to go through the ARC process via that methodology. 60 00:03:25.300 --> 00:03:27.780 So we are going to make sure that that is stricken through. 61 00:03:29.240 --> 00:03:33.030 The next one was page 13, to verify a date from 62 00:03:33.100 --> 00:03:36.980 either April 6th or April 8th. That's for a petition process on a patio villa. 63 00:03:38.140 --> 00:03:41.740 I just need to go check and see if the petition was approved on the previous 64 00:03:41.840 --> 00:03:45.680 Wednesday and then became active on that Monday, or if the 65 00:03:45.860 --> 00:03:48.940 6th versus the 8th was just transposed, then we'll make sure that it's that 8th 66 00:03:48.980 --> 00:03:51.920 showing or that Wednesday that it was done. So we're checking on that. 67 00:03:52.280 --> 00:03:52.290 Okay. 68 00:03:52.480 --> 00:03:53.360 That's a simple thing. 69 00:03:54.880 --> 00:03:58.720 Then there was a question about clarification on page number 21 for 70 00:03:58.800 --> 00:04:01.800 the garage doors. And so that one I would ask Mr. 71 00:04:02.000 --> 00:04:04.860 Miller, what were you questioning with that one? 72 00:04:05.260 --> 00:04:06.820 It was just the verbiage. 73 00:04:08.380 --> 00:04:11.760 The architectural approval is not required to install 74 00:04:12.380 --> 00:04:15.940 or remove garage door glass inserts, decorative 75 00:04:16.041 --> 00:04:16.399 panel, 76 00:04:17.280 --> 00:04:18.940 or a garage door screen. 77 00:04:23.200 --> 00:04:23.920 Okay. 78 00:04:24.360 --> 00:04:24.540 What- 79 00:04:25.180 --> 00:04:26.440 I can't see that up there. 80 00:04:26.700 --> 00:04:27.030 Would you de- 81 00:04:27.400 --> 00:04:30.840 Architectural approval is not required for garage door or screen modifications to 82 00:04:30.880 --> 00:04:30.950 install- 83 00:04:31.020 --> 00:04:31.320 Correct 84 00:04:31.440 --> 00:04:31.440 ... 85 00:04:32.400 --> 00:04:33.100 or remove glass. 86 00:04:33.140 --> 00:04:36.820 And then the architectural approval is also not 87 00:04:36.900 --> 00:04:40.780 required to paint the garage door, provided that the 88 00:04:40.820 --> 00:04:44.380 color is within the approved hue range of the home base 89 00:04:45.780 --> 00:04:46.480 or trim. 90 00:04:46.800 --> 00:04:47.020 Mm-hmm. 91 00:04:47.400 --> 00:04:50.820 Hot neon colors, bright colors are not permitted. 92 00:04:51.620 --> 00:04:54.920 And then the ARC approval is required for any garage door 93 00:04:54.960 --> 00:04:58.680 modification that changes the height and width of the garage door opening. 94 00:04:59.720 --> 00:05:00.180 Yes, sir. 95 00:05:01.360 --> 00:05:01.560 Okay. 96 00:05:02.040 --> 00:05:02.320 It was 97 00:05:03.180 --> 00:05:05.740 just a little bit, the verbiage was just different. 98 00:05:05.800 --> 00:05:07.420 Okay, just with the verbiage itself? 99 00:05:07.540 --> 00:05:07.550 Yes. 100 00:05:07.600 --> 00:05:08.900 Okay. I'll take a look at that. 101 00:05:10.160 --> 00:05:13.640 And then for page 27, clarification on the 102 00:05:13.840 --> 00:05:14.660 landscape lighting. 103 00:05:15.500 --> 00:05:19.340 If I'm not mistaken, you're just taking our largest bullet point number two and 104 00:05:19.380 --> 00:05:22.740 expanding it into two bullet points, just kind of creating its own 105 00:05:22.840 --> 00:05:26.820 standalone for... So it was, "All lighting must be directed downward or 106 00:05:26.900 --> 00:05:30.380 shielded as to not create a nuisance glare or disturbance to neighboring properties 107 00:05:30.460 --> 00:05:34.420 or common areas. Notwithstanding the foregoing, low voltage landscape lighting 108 00:05:34.900 --> 00:05:38.860 used solely to illuminate trees, flagpoles, and architectural features of the 109 00:05:38.900 --> 00:05:42.580 home may be directed upward, provided it is a low 110 00:05:42.620 --> 00:05:43.120 intensity." 111 00:05:44.000 --> 00:05:47.900 So it looks like you just broke that one out into two bullet points versus 112 00:05:47.960 --> 00:05:49.600 just having it as one collective bullet point. 113 00:05:50.260 --> 00:05:51.740 It seemed to flow smoother. 114 00:05:52.240 --> 00:05:52.440 Okay. 115 00:05:52.620 --> 00:05:55.800 I just wanted to bring that to your attention and, you 116 00:05:56.620 --> 00:06:00.120 can make that final determination, but it just seemed to flow smoother. 117 00:06:00.360 --> 00:06:03.692 Okay. It's not a problem. And then page 37, 118 00:06:04.052 --> 00:06:07.932 clarification on tree removal. What specific was there on page 37 119 00:06:07.972 --> 00:06:09.012 about tree removal? 120 00:06:09.492 --> 00:06:13.212 It just ended with the section in the code, the Florida Statute. 121 00:06:13.992 --> 00:06:14.472 I think it 122 00:06:15.892 --> 00:06:19.692 added just a little more clarity by governing the pruning, 123 00:06:19.752 --> 00:06:23.032 trimming, and removal of certain trees on residential properties. 124 00:06:23.392 --> 00:06:25.212 That was just taken out of the statute. 125 00:06:26.572 --> 00:06:26.732 Okay. 126 00:06:26.752 --> 00:06:28.112 Instead of it just being- 127 00:06:30.092 --> 00:06:30.202 ARC 128 00:06:30.232 --> 00:06:32.412 ... I'm not nitpicking, but just wanted to 129 00:06:33.272 --> 00:06:33.912 clarify that. 130 00:06:33.952 --> 00:06:35.292 It expands upon it. 131 00:06:36.552 --> 00:06:40.052 So what we'll do is, instead of approving it today, we'll make these 132 00:06:40.092 --> 00:06:43.132 modifications, and we'll bring it back to you in August and make those little 133 00:06:43.172 --> 00:06:46.612 tweaks, and then we can bring it back for approval at your August meeting. 134 00:06:47.172 --> 00:06:49.692 Yes. Did you see page 32? There was- 135 00:06:50.312 --> 00:06:50.632 Tesla. 136 00:06:50.732 --> 00:06:50.792 Yes. 137 00:06:50.812 --> 00:06:52.352 I think we did Tesla. Yeah. 138 00:06:53.502 --> 00:06:53.952 But yes. 139 00:06:55.032 --> 00:06:56.312 So if everyone's good, we'll- 140 00:06:56.392 --> 00:06:59.852 Is that consensus of the board, we'll just come back with it in August and approve 141 00:06:59.912 --> 00:07:00.492 those changes? 142 00:07:00.932 --> 00:07:01.192 All right. 143 00:07:01.352 --> 00:07:02.462 I think that's what we have, Matt. 144 00:07:02.692 --> 00:07:03.092 That works for me. 145 00:07:03.352 --> 00:07:03.612 That works. 146 00:07:04.012 --> 00:07:04.582 Thank you. 147 00:07:04.582 --> 00:07:05.172 Thank you, sir. 148 00:07:05.212 --> 00:07:05.552 Thank you. 149 00:07:12.152 --> 00:07:15.842 Okay. Now we have the release from the seventh amended Interlocal 150 00:07:15.912 --> 00:07:19.782 Agreement for the Architectural Review Committee agenda request, and I 151 00:07:19.812 --> 00:07:21.532 think Matt's going to address that as well. 152 00:07:23.232 --> 00:07:25.592 So yeah. Hello again. Matt Armstrong, Community Standards. 153 00:07:25.872 --> 00:07:26.092 So, 154 00:07:28.592 --> 00:07:31.232 District 1 had requested to 155 00:07:32.052 --> 00:07:35.692 take a look at utilizing the architectural review hearing 156 00:07:35.812 --> 00:07:39.102 officer as an opportunity to review 157 00:07:39.152 --> 00:07:41.952 their architectural review applications. 158 00:07:41.972 --> 00:07:45.672 In order to do so, District 1 is a party to the seventh amended 159 00:07:45.732 --> 00:07:48.702 Interlocal Agreement for the Architectural Review Committee with the other 160 00:07:48.732 --> 00:07:52.022 districts. And in order to be released from that 161 00:07:52.952 --> 00:07:56.772 agreement, there is an exhibit that all the numbered districts sign 162 00:07:56.852 --> 00:07:59.172 to remove a district from the agreement. 163 00:07:59.272 --> 00:08:02.892 District 6, back in October 1st of 2025, was the 164 00:08:03.032 --> 00:08:03.472 first 165 00:08:04.652 --> 00:08:08.532 entity to do so, and all the numbered districts had agreed to it. 166 00:08:08.772 --> 00:08:12.432 So today, this item is essentially 167 00:08:12.512 --> 00:08:16.132 you agreeing to release yourself from that agreement 168 00:08:16.452 --> 00:08:20.192 and would be a signature on the Exhibit A, as 169 00:08:20.252 --> 00:08:22.032 attached, for 170 00:08:23.112 --> 00:08:26.172 your removal from that agreement where you would participate on the Architectural 171 00:08:26.252 --> 00:08:27.072 Review Committee. 172 00:08:29.812 --> 00:08:33.332 Okay. So at our last meeting, we had the discussion regarding 173 00:08:33.812 --> 00:08:36.672 a hearing officer for architectural review, 174 00:08:37.712 --> 00:08:40.913 and we had consensus from the board at that point in time to 175 00:08:42.612 --> 00:08:46.472 proceed with that. And what we're proposing here is that we release 176 00:08:46.552 --> 00:08:50.072 ourself from being a member of that and proceed on with the 177 00:08:50.272 --> 00:08:52.632 review officer. So, any discussion? 178 00:08:55.392 --> 00:08:57.052 All right. I'll entertain a motion. 179 00:08:57.861 --> 00:09:01.532 All right. I move we approve the release of Community Development 180 00:09:01.612 --> 00:09:05.432 District number 1 from the current agreement for the Architectural Review 181 00:09:05.532 --> 00:09:08.772 Committee effective July 20th, 2026. 182 00:09:09.752 --> 00:09:12.822 I have a motion and a second on the floor. Further discussion? 183 00:09:13.892 --> 00:09:15.392 Hearing none, all in favor say aye. 184 00:09:15.992 --> 00:09:16.372 Aye. 185 00:09:16.392 --> 00:09:19.732 Any opposed? Motion carries unanimously. Thank you. 186 00:09:21.332 --> 00:09:22.112 All right. The 187 00:09:23.912 --> 00:09:26.452 next thing on our agenda is a public hearing 188 00:09:27.572 --> 00:09:28.812 to adopt the Resolution 189 00:09:29.332 --> 00:09:33.152 2026-06 amending and restating Chapter 190 00:09:33.492 --> 00:09:36.712 2 of the district's rule to bring about deed compliance. 191 00:09:37.652 --> 00:09:41.452 And Matt Armstrong is continuing to stay at the 192 00:09:41.512 --> 00:09:42.192 podium to 193 00:09:43.072 --> 00:09:47.012 work us through this as well. So, at this time, we'll let you 194 00:09:47.072 --> 00:09:48.892 review it, and then we'll have our public hearing. 195 00:09:49.472 --> 00:09:52.082 Yes. Good morning, board. Matt Armstrong again, Community Standards. 196 00:09:52.732 --> 00:09:53.992 So at the November 10th, 197 00:09:57.892 --> 00:10:01.772 2021 board meeting, the Village Center Community Development District 198 00:10:01.812 --> 00:10:05.332 approved letters of engagement with the hearing officers for deed 199 00:10:05.392 --> 00:10:07.232 compliance and architectural review. 200 00:10:07.772 --> 00:10:11.072 Specific to the architectural review hearing officer, the agreement provides that 201 00:10:11.112 --> 00:10:14.872 the authority to approve or deny exterior modifications to the residential home 202 00:10:15.252 --> 00:10:19.051 and/or home site based on the district's adopted rule and ARC manual would be 203 00:10:19.092 --> 00:10:21.192 made by the architectural review hearing officer. 204 00:10:21.692 --> 00:10:22.171 The method of 205 00:10:23.012 --> 00:10:26.712 review for the ARC application is currently being utilized within the boundaries of 206 00:10:26.792 --> 00:10:29.982 Village Community Development District 6 and 11 through 207 00:10:30.172 --> 00:10:34.052 16. At your May 8th, 2026 board meeting, the Board 208 00:10:34.252 --> 00:10:37.592 of Supervisors authorized the publication of the district's intent to amend and 209 00:10:37.632 --> 00:10:40.552 restate Chapter 2 of its rule to bring about deed compliance. 210 00:10:42.632 --> 00:10:46.532 I want to go over some of the changes that were being recommended because I 211 00:10:46.552 --> 00:10:50.072 believe there are a few modifications to our first 212 00:10:50.172 --> 00:10:52.252 initial submission to you. 213 00:10:53.492 --> 00:10:56.812 And those items, let me go to the correct 214 00:10:57.592 --> 00:10:58.252 attachment. 215 00:11:02.652 --> 00:11:03.032 There we go. 216 00:11:04.292 --> 00:11:08.032 So some of the just small tweaks were, under exterior 217 00:11:08.042 --> 00:11:11.892 lighting, we added an italic area that said, "Please 218 00:11:11.952 --> 00:11:15.392 refer to the deed restrictions specific to your property to determine any 219 00:11:15.412 --> 00:11:19.262 regulations pertaining to exterior lighting." The reason for that is 220 00:11:19.292 --> 00:11:22.922 that not all units within District 1 have rules pertaining to lighting. 221 00:11:23.432 --> 00:11:26.472 So we wanted to make it very clear that although it's here in the standards, 222 00:11:26.592 --> 00:11:28.812 please, we're going to review your deed restrictions to make sure that there's 223 00:11:28.872 --> 00:11:31.832 actually a rule there that this attaches to and can be enforced. 224 00:11:32.192 --> 00:11:32.532 Okay. 225 00:11:34.752 --> 00:11:38.132 Going through again, we already had nuisance. 226 00:11:39.092 --> 00:11:42.932 Underneath seasonal displays, we added a bullet that 227 00:11:43.032 --> 00:11:46.952 says, "Only one observance may be displayed at a 228 00:11:47.032 --> 00:11:50.452 time." So you can't have dual holidays going simultaneously. 229 00:11:50.472 --> 00:11:53.772 So we don't want to see Easter and St. Patrick's Day on your lawn at the same time. 230 00:11:53.792 --> 00:11:53.882 Okay. 231 00:11:54.252 --> 00:11:57.712 Choose one holiday to observe at a time, and that's what we're requesting for that 232 00:11:57.752 --> 00:11:57.932 one. 233 00:11:58.432 --> 00:11:58.712 Okay. 234 00:12:00.072 --> 00:12:03.572 Also, we added a language that said that 235 00:12:04.092 --> 00:12:05.352 for seasonal displays 236 00:12:06.180 --> 00:12:10.020 What you have on your property cannot supersede any rule or regulation 237 00:12:10.060 --> 00:12:12.820 within the deed restrictions or the architectural review manual. 238 00:12:13.360 --> 00:12:15.260 And as an example, if you have 239 00:12:16.080 --> 00:12:20.000 in your architectural review manual, you're permitted 240 00:12:20.040 --> 00:12:22.960 to have three flagpoles on your property. 241 00:12:23.360 --> 00:12:26.150 So you can have one attached to the home, you can have your architectural approved 242 00:12:26.260 --> 00:12:29.610 application one, and then you can have the one allowed by Florida statute that has 243 00:12:29.640 --> 00:12:33.200 the American flag, first responder flag, service member flag. 244 00:12:34.360 --> 00:12:35.740 We should not see 245 00:12:37.720 --> 00:12:41.540 30 flagpoles all over your property displaying various 246 00:12:41.600 --> 00:12:41.820 flags. 247 00:12:43.140 --> 00:12:46.900 Your decoration should not supersede any given rule that you currently have in 248 00:12:46.960 --> 00:12:50.220 place for your architectural process or your deed compliance process. 249 00:12:50.260 --> 00:12:52.060 So that's just one example, but 250 00:12:52.900 --> 00:12:56.240 it goes for anything that you would have within your district. 251 00:12:56.800 --> 00:12:57.060 Okay. 252 00:12:58.420 --> 00:13:01.180 And I believe those were the two 253 00:13:03.440 --> 00:13:07.100 big things that were just added to the overall. 254 00:13:08.300 --> 00:13:10.860 Oh, and the lighting. We did add the language with the lighting, 255 00:13:11.900 --> 00:13:15.740 about it needing to be facing, if you have landscape lighting for trees, it can be 256 00:13:15.760 --> 00:13:18.620 upward but not shining and directed toward your neighbor's property or on your 257 00:13:18.680 --> 00:13:18.920 home. 258 00:13:19.370 --> 00:13:19.370 Got it. 259 00:13:19.380 --> 00:13:21.840 But you can't have a landscape light that points up towards a tree. 260 00:13:22.160 --> 00:13:22.360 Okay. 261 00:13:22.620 --> 00:13:26.000 Other than that, I do recommend the approval of 262 00:13:26.140 --> 00:13:30.000 Resolution 2026-06, amending and restating Chapter 2 of the 263 00:13:30.060 --> 00:13:31.780 district's rule to bring about deed compliance. 264 00:13:33.180 --> 00:13:33.580 Okay. 265 00:13:35.020 --> 00:13:36.820 At this time, we'll open a public hearing 266 00:13:38.220 --> 00:13:40.200 regarding the adoption of Resolution 267 00:13:40.540 --> 00:13:44.420 2026-06, amending and 268 00:13:44.460 --> 00:13:48.380 restating Chapter 2 of the district's rule to bring about deed compliance 269 00:13:48.620 --> 00:13:51.340 with those adjustments that we've just heard about. 270 00:13:51.960 --> 00:13:54.400 Would anyone like to speak regarding the 271 00:13:56.640 --> 00:14:00.200 adjustments to our rules for deed compliance on external 272 00:14:00.780 --> 00:14:01.800 deed restrictions? 273 00:14:04.260 --> 00:14:07.910 Yes, sir. Please step to the podium, give us your name and address for the 274 00:14:07.980 --> 00:14:09.880 record and your comments. 275 00:14:14.280 --> 00:14:17.760 My name's Steven Stone. I live at 1503 Martinez Drive. 276 00:14:18.560 --> 00:14:22.030 I'm the president of the Villa de Laguna West Homeowners 277 00:14:22.100 --> 00:14:25.840 Association. My apologies for coming in late, I got 278 00:14:25.900 --> 00:14:26.500 delayed. 279 00:14:27.120 --> 00:14:28.240 Okay. 280 00:14:28.460 --> 00:14:29.560 The lighting, 281 00:14:31.100 --> 00:14:34.700 does that cover people putting lights in their soffits? 282 00:14:35.940 --> 00:14:39.220 I know that it's a restriction to 283 00:14:40.280 --> 00:14:42.960 how long holiday lighting can stay up. Is that correct? 284 00:14:45.060 --> 00:14:45.200 Yes, 285 00:14:46.740 --> 00:14:47.320 sir. There is. 286 00:14:48.060 --> 00:14:48.720 Please answer it. 287 00:14:49.600 --> 00:14:53.240 If there is a rule in the deed restrictions that states that seasonal displays are 288 00:14:53.260 --> 00:14:56.980 not to exceed 30 days in duration, then yes, that would fall 289 00:14:57.040 --> 00:15:00.380 underneath if you have seasonal lighting, if you want to hang Christmas lights and 290 00:15:00.420 --> 00:15:01.080 things like that. 291 00:15:01.840 --> 00:15:03.940 So when people have, 292 00:15:05.000 --> 00:15:06.800 say, lighting on their 293 00:15:08.600 --> 00:15:10.640 back fence and 294 00:15:11.960 --> 00:15:15.680 it's continual every single night, is that a violation of deed 295 00:15:15.720 --> 00:15:17.080 restrictions? 296 00:15:19.840 --> 00:15:23.760 When we receive a complaint, we would take a look to see what the deed 297 00:15:23.800 --> 00:15:27.160 restrictions state. It's my understanding that nothing's permitted to be attached 298 00:15:27.200 --> 00:15:29.200 to a wall or fence. So, 299 00:15:30.220 --> 00:15:33.320 the deed restrictions specifically state if you have the rule, that lighting must 300 00:15:33.360 --> 00:15:37.120 be attached to the home. So we would take a look, and if we're not able to 301 00:15:37.200 --> 00:15:40.440 see said violation, we would work with the homeowner if they can help provide 302 00:15:40.480 --> 00:15:44.140 pictures of that location, especially if it's behind a villa wall where we're not 303 00:15:44.220 --> 00:15:47.520 able to view it. We would take a look at it and review the deed restrictions to see 304 00:15:47.530 --> 00:15:49.620 if a violation exists. 305 00:15:49.740 --> 00:15:53.640 So then along the same lines, lighting restrictions, say in 306 00:15:53.700 --> 00:15:57.640 the soffits. I've seen people that put LED lights that 307 00:15:57.680 --> 00:16:00.640 change colors and things like that in their soffits. 308 00:16:01.260 --> 00:16:02.960 In one case, there's a house in 309 00:16:03.900 --> 00:16:07.500 Hacienda Villas where they put lights every three 310 00:16:07.680 --> 00:16:09.020 feet into the soffit. 311 00:16:10.520 --> 00:16:11.860 So it looks like a carnival. 312 00:16:13.600 --> 00:16:15.700 Would that be a violation of the deed restriction? 313 00:16:17.780 --> 00:16:20.440 If there is a lighting rule, no, it would not be. 314 00:16:20.500 --> 00:16:24.160 So in the standards that we are requesting today for the board to approve, we do 315 00:16:24.260 --> 00:16:28.120 have language in for exterior lighting that says, "Lighting shall not include 316 00:16:28.180 --> 00:16:31.840 flashing, chasing, strobing, rotating, or color-changing effects 317 00:16:31.900 --> 00:16:34.480 except during approved seasonal display periods." 318 00:16:35.700 --> 00:16:39.480 So the existence of a light, if it's a colored light, it 319 00:16:39.520 --> 00:16:42.640 would be an issue if it was casting, and 320 00:16:43.400 --> 00:16:46.380 it's so bright that it's illuminating other properties around it, 321 00:16:47.080 --> 00:16:50.150 and if it was dancing, chasing, strobing, and changing colors. 322 00:16:50.280 --> 00:16:54.170 Otherwise, just the existence of the light itself would not be a violation, and 323 00:16:54.200 --> 00:16:57.140 that would be something that staff would go out after hours and take a look at and 324 00:16:57.220 --> 00:16:58.040 see what's going on. 325 00:16:58.840 --> 00:16:58.849 Okay. 326 00:16:58.920 --> 00:17:02.919 Mr. Armstrong, this is a villa unit, I believe, that you're asking about. 327 00:17:03.180 --> 00:17:03.480 It is. 328 00:17:03.640 --> 00:17:05.740 Do we have lighting restrictions in the villa units? 329 00:17:08.181 --> 00:17:09.921 We do not have it in the villa units, no. 330 00:17:10.260 --> 00:17:13.860 So that is something that during our research for 331 00:17:13.980 --> 00:17:17.600 this standards update, we found that the deed 332 00:17:17.620 --> 00:17:21.181 restrictions are pretty consistent throughout the villages and that home 333 00:17:21.260 --> 00:17:25.200 units have the nuisance lighting provisions, but villa units 334 00:17:25.260 --> 00:17:29.040 do not. So there is nothing in the deed restrictions for villas that 335 00:17:29.120 --> 00:17:31.200 say you can't have nuisance lighting. 336 00:17:32.000 --> 00:17:35.840 So we are, when it comes to these standards, they are going to apply to, 337 00:17:35.940 --> 00:17:39.550 as Mr. Armstrong said, every unit that has the lighting 338 00:17:39.660 --> 00:17:43.540 provision. But unfortunately, the villa units do not have that lighting 339 00:17:43.600 --> 00:17:47.440 provision. And as you know, we can't create new restrictions, so 340 00:17:47.500 --> 00:17:50.479 this is not going to be enforceable when it comes to villa units. 341 00:17:51.460 --> 00:17:54.980 So Mr. Stone, because we do not have 342 00:17:55.680 --> 00:17:59.220 a existing external deed restriction regarding 343 00:17:59.260 --> 00:18:01.580 exterior lighting in villa units, 344 00:18:02.620 --> 00:18:06.140 we cannot create one. The developer has 345 00:18:06.220 --> 00:18:10.160 restricted us from providing new rules about things 346 00:18:10.240 --> 00:18:12.600 that weren't already included in deed restrictions. 347 00:18:12.620 --> 00:18:14.240 So would that include fences? 348 00:18:16.190 --> 00:18:20.050 No, we can look at that because I believe that as 349 00:18:21.390 --> 00:18:25.150 Mr. Armstrong said, there is a restriction that says nothing can be attached to 350 00:18:25.170 --> 00:18:28.210 walls or fences, and it says nothing. 351 00:18:28.390 --> 00:18:31.030 So that's something that he will look at. Absolutely. 352 00:18:31.110 --> 00:18:34.450 And I think the easiest way to handle all these questions is if there's concerns, 353 00:18:34.490 --> 00:18:37.090 there should be a call made to community standards and something reported, 354 00:18:38.070 --> 00:18:41.600 so that they can investigate and determine whether there's a potential violation or 355 00:18:41.650 --> 00:18:45.640 not. Again, at this point in time, we're looking at the rule to decide 356 00:18:45.690 --> 00:18:48.489 whether it's something that the district wants to proceed with. 357 00:18:48.850 --> 00:18:50.120 The rule regarding lighting, 358 00:18:51.190 --> 00:18:52.560 as Mr. Armstrong mentioned, 359 00:18:53.390 --> 00:18:56.499 it's applicable in different ways depending on the type of property it is. 360 00:18:56.570 --> 00:19:00.280 It's essentially there to prevent property owners from having 361 00:19:00.350 --> 00:19:01.050 lighting that 362 00:19:02.450 --> 00:19:03.810 is a nuisance to their neighbors. 363 00:19:04.810 --> 00:19:08.570 That's including lighting, even if it's facing downward, if it's strobing, if it's 364 00:19:08.610 --> 00:19:12.210 flashing, that sort of thing. But if there's a particular concern, it should be 365 00:19:12.270 --> 00:19:14.430 reported and let community standards investigate. 366 00:19:15.370 --> 00:19:18.930 So, Mr. Stone, what I think we're saying is that you have a lot of 367 00:19:18.970 --> 00:19:21.510 specific questions that should be addressed to Mr. 368 00:19:21.610 --> 00:19:22.930 Armstrong in private 369 00:19:23.890 --> 00:19:24.610 instead of here- 370 00:19:24.630 --> 00:19:24.700 Right 371 00:19:24.730 --> 00:19:25.530 ... at a public meeting. 372 00:19:25.550 --> 00:19:25.629 Thank you, Your Honor. 373 00:19:25.670 --> 00:19:26.950 Okay. Thank you, sir. 374 00:19:27.070 --> 00:19:27.490 Appreciate it. 375 00:19:27.690 --> 00:19:28.030 All right. 376 00:19:30.430 --> 00:19:32.530 Any further comments regarding the 377 00:19:34.310 --> 00:19:36.130 public hearing on the deed restrictions? 378 00:19:37.590 --> 00:19:39.610 All right. Hearing none, we'll close the public hearing. 379 00:19:41.990 --> 00:19:43.910 And now we'll have discussion from the board. 380 00:19:47.470 --> 00:19:49.690 I think what's been proposed here is just 381 00:19:49.710 --> 00:19:53.610 our continual efforts to try to refine 382 00:19:54.250 --> 00:19:55.250 and adapt to 383 00:19:56.290 --> 00:19:59.830 changes in the world. And, so that's my comment on 384 00:19:59.840 --> 00:20:02.710 the proposal from the staff at this point in time. 385 00:20:05.630 --> 00:20:07.210 All right, we'll entertain a motion. 386 00:20:11.390 --> 00:20:12.830 We actually have a resolution. 387 00:20:14.170 --> 00:20:14.370 So 388 00:20:15.970 --> 00:20:18.190 if you look at the resolution. Yes, sir. 389 00:20:18.470 --> 00:20:19.890 I move we adopt resolution 390 00:20:20.130 --> 00:20:23.790 2026-06, amending and restating 391 00:20:23.870 --> 00:20:27.490 Chapter Two, the district's rule governing deed compliance, 392 00:20:29.050 --> 00:20:32.750 and the amended and restated Chapter Two rule to take effect on 393 00:20:32.770 --> 00:20:34.770 July 10th, 2026. 394 00:20:35.810 --> 00:20:38.190 All right. We have a motion on the floor. Do we have a second? 395 00:20:39.670 --> 00:20:39.950 Second. 396 00:20:40.350 --> 00:20:42.950 We have a motion and a second. Any further discussion? 397 00:20:44.270 --> 00:20:46.010 Hearing none, all in favor say aye. 398 00:20:46.410 --> 00:20:46.940 Aye. Aye. 399 00:20:46.950 --> 00:20:49.470 Any opposed? Motion carries unanimously. 400 00:20:50.170 --> 00:20:50.610 Thank you, board. 401 00:20:51.150 --> 00:20:51.670 Thank you, Matt. 402 00:20:56.630 --> 00:21:00.170 Okay, the hearing case that was on our agenda 403 00:21:00.230 --> 00:21:01.150 has been 404 00:21:02.070 --> 00:21:05.970 resolved and taken off the agenda, so we no longer have 405 00:21:06.050 --> 00:21:08.690 that. So we'll move along to old business. 406 00:21:09.410 --> 00:21:13.350 Yes, sir. The first item on old business is Morris Boulevard safety concerns. 407 00:21:13.900 --> 00:21:17.310 Staff doesn't have an update to this, but I will turn it back over to the board for 408 00:21:17.350 --> 00:21:17.950 discussion. 409 00:21:19.710 --> 00:21:20.690 All right. So, 410 00:21:22.110 --> 00:21:25.630 I think you saw it toward the end of the agenda under supervisor 411 00:21:25.710 --> 00:21:26.130 comments, 412 00:21:26.950 --> 00:21:30.550 where Supervisor Goodwin has some ideas 413 00:21:30.750 --> 00:21:34.730 and a proposal. So let's go ahead and talk about that now and 414 00:21:34.770 --> 00:21:37.339 move that up on the agenda since we're talking about it. 415 00:21:37.360 --> 00:21:41.090 Great. So as you recall, last time I reached out to the county to find 416 00:21:41.150 --> 00:21:41.430 out 417 00:21:42.410 --> 00:21:45.490 how they do their design work, and I got a response back that basically said they 418 00:21:45.590 --> 00:21:48.810 follow the Florida Department of Transportation for all their standard details. 419 00:21:49.370 --> 00:21:49.630 Okay. 420 00:21:49.710 --> 00:21:51.910 So with that in my pocket, I developed a letter that I want to 421 00:21:52.850 --> 00:21:55.690 send out under signature of the supervisor, but I want to get your approval for it. 422 00:21:55.770 --> 00:21:57.270 So I'd like to go ahead and read that letter in. 423 00:21:57.910 --> 00:21:59.650 And the intent of this letter is, 424 00:22:00.810 --> 00:22:03.670 one place I think that we can make safety improvements, and I've had this happen to 425 00:22:03.710 --> 00:22:07.670 me, is you're going down Morris and somebody pulls into the lane, 426 00:22:08.510 --> 00:22:10.910 and your choices are run into them or pull into the traffic. 427 00:22:11.510 --> 00:22:15.390 And if you look at where North Morris hits crossroads, there's nothing to 428 00:22:15.430 --> 00:22:17.420 tell you there's a multi-motor path there at all. 429 00:22:18.170 --> 00:22:20.690 So I found something nice that we may be able to suggest. 430 00:22:20.710 --> 00:22:24.460 So let me read this letter. It's basically to Matthew Toddlock, and he's the 431 00:22:24.530 --> 00:22:25.230 assistant public 432 00:22:26.670 --> 00:22:28.130 works director for planning design. 433 00:22:28.730 --> 00:22:31.650 And it says, "Matt, thank you for your response to the issues of North Morris 434 00:22:31.730 --> 00:22:35.590 Boulevard. The intention of this letter is to facilitate a potential reduction in 435 00:22:35.610 --> 00:22:38.150 vehicular accidents on North Morris Boulevard. 436 00:22:39.170 --> 00:22:42.970 As you know, this particular segment of this road, Morris 437 00:22:43.010 --> 00:22:46.560 Boulevard, between 27 and 441 and 466, 438 00:22:47.070 --> 00:22:50.600 is the only major road in the villages where vehicular traffic, golf carts, 439 00:22:50.710 --> 00:22:52.930 bicycles, and pedestrians share the same roadway. 440 00:22:53.730 --> 00:22:54.590 An earlier design 441 00:22:57.590 --> 00:22:59.270 shortfall has been corrected in later designs. 442 00:22:59.290 --> 00:23:03.050 In particular, the challenge is vehicle incursions from side roads 443 00:23:03.190 --> 00:23:05.450 into the multimodal path at intersections with Morris. 444 00:23:06.090 --> 00:23:09.990 All too often, vehicles pull into a multimodal path and stop to 445 00:23:10.030 --> 00:23:11.650 gain a better view of incoming traffic. 446 00:23:11.680 --> 00:23:15.310 This has led to multiple accidents between users of the multimodal 447 00:23:15.390 --> 00:23:19.360 path and vehicles pulling into the pathway, not yielding right of 448 00:23:19.390 --> 00:23:19.550 way. 449 00:23:20.590 --> 00:23:24.490 A suggestion for your consideration is to clearly mark the multimodal 450 00:23:24.590 --> 00:23:28.530 path at these intersections or some other pavement markings as shown 451 00:23:28.630 --> 00:23:28.890 in 452 00:23:30.030 --> 00:23:32.770 example FDOT design manual, topic number 453 00:23:33.010 --> 00:23:35.030 625.00002." 454 00:23:36.030 --> 00:23:37.450 Do we have that to put up, Carrie? 455 00:23:37.610 --> 00:23:40.090 The picture? 456 00:23:40.890 --> 00:23:41.360 Yeah, the picture. 457 00:23:41.410 --> 00:23:41.730 Yes, sir. 458 00:23:44.910 --> 00:23:45.710 Under supervisor. 459 00:23:45.790 --> 00:23:47.130 Yeah, it's all the way down the bottom. 460 00:23:47.330 --> 00:23:49.190 And you see this if you've ever been to St. 461 00:23:49.450 --> 00:23:51.930 Pete, all the intersections are marked that way. 462 00:23:52.910 --> 00:23:56.540 If you're going to the beaches, you go out where 463 00:23:56.790 --> 00:23:57.490 44 hits 464 00:23:58.430 --> 00:24:00.970 4, they've done the same thing. They've marked. 465 00:24:02.570 --> 00:24:06.330 So what the intent here is to take the multimodal path, which has no 466 00:24:06.350 --> 00:24:07.890 markings at all, and put markings on it. 467 00:24:07.930 --> 00:24:11.870 So a person says, "Oh, I really should not pull in there and stop." That's 468 00:24:11.950 --> 00:24:14.430 the intent of this letter. So that's what 469 00:24:15.230 --> 00:24:19.190 FDOT 625.00002 looks like. So it's in your 470 00:24:19.230 --> 00:24:19.990 design manual. 471 00:24:21.490 --> 00:24:21.990 And 472 00:24:24.478 --> 00:24:27.918 So currently, going back to the letter, it says, "Currently, one would be 473 00:24:27.998 --> 00:24:31.638 hard-pressed to find any indication that the multimodal path exists at these 474 00:24:31.678 --> 00:24:34.978 intersections." Additionally, and I've got another 475 00:24:36.638 --> 00:24:37.198 idea here, 476 00:24:38.558 --> 00:24:42.498 and this was truly a cut and paste where I took pictures, got out 477 00:24:42.538 --> 00:24:43.957 the Elmer's glue, and put it together. 478 00:24:43.978 --> 00:24:47.678 But having signs that tell people, "You should 479 00:24:47.838 --> 00:24:51.668 stop here and not pull into the intersection." You see these very often where there 480 00:24:51.738 --> 00:24:55.638 are pedestrian walkways. But these are ideas to be 481 00:24:55.718 --> 00:24:56.278 suggested. 482 00:24:57.098 --> 00:25:00.658 So my last paragraph basically states, "As a professional engineer, 483 00:25:01.558 --> 00:25:05.158 we take seriously the responsibility not only for the quality of the work we do, 484 00:25:05.238 --> 00:25:08.558 but safety." And where that's important is if you have a professional engineering 485 00:25:08.638 --> 00:25:12.238 license, which I've had, your number one goal is safety. 486 00:25:13.038 --> 00:25:16.907 Safety. So to point out to them, "You have a potential safety problem 487 00:25:16.938 --> 00:25:19.718 here. As a professional engineer, if you're not addressing it, you really ought to 488 00:25:19.778 --> 00:25:20.258 take a look." 489 00:25:21.098 --> 00:25:24.618 So what I'd like to do, with my supervisors' approval, is go ahead and move this 490 00:25:24.658 --> 00:25:25.358 letter forward. 491 00:25:26.378 --> 00:25:27.958 But my intent is not to email it to them. 492 00:25:27.998 --> 00:25:31.358 It's to set up a meeting because I've learned eyeball works better, 493 00:25:32.058 --> 00:25:34.578 and email them just the day of the meeting. 494 00:25:35.258 --> 00:25:35.428 Okay. 495 00:25:35.428 --> 00:25:38.238 And to see if they're open to maybe doing this. 496 00:25:38.798 --> 00:25:41.178 And I think it's exclusive just to this section of road. 497 00:25:41.208 --> 00:25:44.918 I know there's a lot of places where there's multimodal paths and roads, but this 498 00:25:44.958 --> 00:25:47.818 has such a high traffic volume. And I've had that experience. 499 00:25:47.858 --> 00:25:51.238 And I was at the pool one day talking to a lady, and she said she had to get a new 500 00:25:51.358 --> 00:25:55.158 golf cart. Guess why? Same thing. Somebody pulled into the multimodal 501 00:25:55.238 --> 00:25:55.478 path, 502 00:25:56.478 --> 00:25:57.938 she ran into the person behind them. 503 00:25:58.388 --> 00:26:01.758 The person took off, but the person behind them had a dash cam, so the police 504 00:26:01.798 --> 00:26:02.378 caught up with them. 505 00:26:02.758 --> 00:26:02.938 Good. 506 00:26:03.338 --> 00:26:03.518 So, 507 00:26:04.398 --> 00:26:08.118 what I'm asking my supervisors is can I go ahead and forward this letter to 508 00:26:08.878 --> 00:26:09.338 DOT? 509 00:26:11.398 --> 00:26:11.538 I 510 00:26:12.818 --> 00:26:15.678 certainly appreciate your efforts, and I think that's a very 511 00:26:16.558 --> 00:26:20.258 unique idea for The Villages 512 00:26:20.318 --> 00:26:23.778 application, but it certainly seems to be very effective because 513 00:26:24.438 --> 00:26:28.198 most of us have seen this type of application 514 00:26:28.518 --> 00:26:30.958 in other cities, and it seems to work very well. 515 00:26:31.098 --> 00:26:31.418 So, 516 00:26:32.318 --> 00:26:34.938 from my perspective, I think absolutely, sir. 517 00:26:37.478 --> 00:26:38.048 Go ahead, Frank. 518 00:26:38.098 --> 00:26:39.918 All right. I'll continue to move forward. 519 00:26:40.338 --> 00:26:40.448 I agree with that. 520 00:26:40.448 --> 00:26:42.578 And I'll report next meeting how that meeting goes. 521 00:26:42.658 --> 00:26:44.078 All right. We have a full consensus. 522 00:26:44.598 --> 00:26:44.608 Great. Thank you. 523 00:26:44.638 --> 00:26:45.438 So, thank you, sir. 524 00:26:46.098 --> 00:26:47.388 And staff, you all right? 525 00:26:48.198 --> 00:26:51.908 Absolutely. I was just going to offer, we are happy to help facilitate that 526 00:26:51.908 --> 00:26:54.398 meeting if you would like us to or need us to. 527 00:26:54.478 --> 00:26:57.918 So if you, at any point, want us to reach out to Sumter County and help 528 00:26:57.938 --> 00:27:01.818 facilitate, just give me a call or send me an email and we'd be happy to help. 529 00:27:02.158 --> 00:27:05.358 You bet. One of my suggestions is going to be maybe we need to have a public 530 00:27:05.398 --> 00:27:07.978 meeting to have the conversation and sort of present the idea. 531 00:27:08.818 --> 00:27:12.328 Or another option is to maybe trial it at one intersection and see how it works and 532 00:27:12.358 --> 00:27:15.338 get feedback from the community. So with those two options, yes, I would need some 533 00:27:15.358 --> 00:27:15.578 help. 534 00:27:15.818 --> 00:27:18.818 Yep, just let me know and we'll be happy to help. 535 00:27:19.358 --> 00:27:22.878 And this is only one of five ideas I have to make Morris safe. 536 00:27:22.938 --> 00:27:25.318 There are many more to come. One at a time. 537 00:27:26.638 --> 00:27:29.418 Awesome. Thank you, sir. I appreciate your efforts there. 538 00:27:30.818 --> 00:27:34.587 The next item on old business was to provide an update on the 539 00:27:34.638 --> 00:27:38.278 installation of the RPMs. It was 540 00:27:38.398 --> 00:27:42.058 asked by this board for us to include this in next year's 541 00:27:42.118 --> 00:27:46.098 budget. So it has been included, and then if this is something that you would like 542 00:27:46.178 --> 00:27:49.778 us to proceed with next year, then certainly, we will add it to our 543 00:27:50.738 --> 00:27:53.268 items for district property management to accomplish. 544 00:27:53.698 --> 00:27:56.758 But as of right now, it's just a budget item. 545 00:27:58.658 --> 00:28:00.378 Sorry, RPMs where? 546 00:28:00.478 --> 00:28:03.978 I'm sorry, the centerline RPMs on your multimodal paths. 547 00:28:04.298 --> 00:28:05.298 They're fabulous at night. 548 00:28:06.478 --> 00:28:08.238 I completely agree. I was 549 00:28:09.078 --> 00:28:12.338 returning from Brownwood Paddock Square the other night, 550 00:28:13.218 --> 00:28:17.098 and in the districts that did not have the centerline markers, it 551 00:28:17.138 --> 00:28:20.658 was so much more difficult to navigate the road 552 00:28:21.118 --> 00:28:24.978 versus when I moved into District 5 and it was illuminated 553 00:28:25.038 --> 00:28:28.438 like a Christmas tree and you knew exactly where you were on the road. 554 00:28:28.538 --> 00:28:28.778 So, 555 00:28:30.378 --> 00:28:32.998 personally, I'd like to see us move forward with this now. 556 00:28:33.058 --> 00:28:35.018 Go ahead and bid that project out and 557 00:28:36.258 --> 00:28:36.978 make sure that's 558 00:28:38.478 --> 00:28:40.038 on tap for our 559 00:28:40.858 --> 00:28:41.578 budgetary. 560 00:28:42.738 --> 00:28:46.268 I thought it was in this year's budget, so maybe I 561 00:28:46.318 --> 00:28:47.018 was wrong. 562 00:28:47.218 --> 00:28:50.458 While we're on that topic, I did want to mention that District 3 did ask me to 563 00:28:50.478 --> 00:28:54.348 provide them with a legal recommendation on whether they 564 00:28:54.418 --> 00:28:58.118 should proceed with the installation of the RPMs, given the Kimley-Horn reports 565 00:28:58.158 --> 00:29:01.558 that have been released. I prepared a memo to them. 566 00:29:01.838 --> 00:29:05.718 They have it. I want to send it to you as well, along with my other boards that 567 00:29:05.738 --> 00:29:08.238 are making the consideration as to whether to install these or not. 568 00:29:08.998 --> 00:29:10.118 So we will get that to you. 569 00:29:10.518 --> 00:29:12.578 All right. Thanks for the information there. 570 00:29:14.258 --> 00:29:15.158 Any further comments 571 00:29:16.178 --> 00:29:19.918 about this project? Okay. Moving on. 572 00:29:20.978 --> 00:29:24.858 So are you comfortable with us keeping it in next year's budget, or did you 573 00:29:24.918 --> 00:29:27.118 want us to try to find funds this year? 574 00:29:28.198 --> 00:29:31.898 I'm still comfortable in putting it in next year's budget, and I 575 00:29:32.258 --> 00:29:35.698 think it's just a process by which make sure we've 576 00:29:36.198 --> 00:29:39.418 got it bid out. I think we've got a contractor already in place. 577 00:29:39.458 --> 00:29:40.938 They've already worked for us. 578 00:29:40.978 --> 00:29:41.458 Yes, sir. 579 00:29:41.518 --> 00:29:41.738 And 580 00:29:43.058 --> 00:29:45.938 I'm certainly aware of Kimley-Horn's report. 581 00:29:46.418 --> 00:29:50.238 I'm also aware that these things have been implemented in 582 00:29:50.298 --> 00:29:53.918 various places in The Villages for years now, and I don't really 583 00:29:53.928 --> 00:29:57.638 see the impact of what they're claiming. 584 00:29:58.058 --> 00:29:58.818 So, 585 00:30:00.238 --> 00:30:03.738 I'm very comfortable with moving forward with the project as 586 00:30:05.118 --> 00:30:06.538 the budget provides. 587 00:30:07.278 --> 00:30:09.818 Understood. Thank you. And that concludes old business. 588 00:30:10.058 --> 00:30:11.138 All right. 589 00:30:18.018 --> 00:30:19.058 Informational items. 590 00:30:19.878 --> 00:30:23.278 We have our financial statements, the monthly report from 591 00:30:23.718 --> 00:30:24.678 property management 592 00:30:26.714 --> 00:30:30.694 Our public hearing case updates, looks like all of those are moving 593 00:30:30.754 --> 00:30:34.214 forward. We're making headway there with 594 00:30:34.954 --> 00:30:36.234 liens and things like that. 595 00:30:38.574 --> 00:30:40.594 Any comments about those? 596 00:30:43.154 --> 00:30:47.114 You did see the memo from SECO. They're going to begin lighting 597 00:30:47.214 --> 00:30:48.534 transition with LEDs. 598 00:30:49.574 --> 00:30:49.894 Okay. 599 00:30:50.814 --> 00:30:54.314 I think we may hear from some of our community members about 600 00:30:54.394 --> 00:30:58.374 that because the lighting color will be different, as well as it may 601 00:30:58.433 --> 00:31:02.094 be a little bit brighter. So we'll address those issues as they come forward. 602 00:31:02.594 --> 00:31:04.714 Yeah, our neighborhood was done probably two months ago. 603 00:31:05.174 --> 00:31:05.394 Okay. 604 00:31:05.943 --> 00:31:09.194 And dramatically, it's at the intersections, which is great, but dramatically 605 00:31:09.234 --> 00:31:10.534 increased visibility at night. 606 00:31:11.054 --> 00:31:11.314 Good. 607 00:31:13.814 --> 00:31:15.454 All right. District manager reports. 608 00:31:16.154 --> 00:31:19.814 The only report that I have is your Amenity Authority Committee after agenda. 609 00:31:20.154 --> 00:31:23.664 It is attached. I'm happy to answer any questions, and I believe you do have Mr. 610 00:31:23.894 --> 00:31:26.414 Vaccaro in the audience as well. 611 00:31:26.514 --> 00:31:26.874 Okay. 612 00:31:28.294 --> 00:31:30.094 Looks like Mr. Vaccaro wants to 613 00:31:31.053 --> 00:31:34.514 give us a summary of all the great things they did at the Amenity 614 00:31:34.614 --> 00:31:35.474 Authority Committee. 615 00:31:35.954 --> 00:31:37.774 Yes, we have many good things. 616 00:31:39.314 --> 00:31:40.994 Hopefully, I don't get beat up too much this 617 00:31:41.794 --> 00:31:42.894 month like I did last month. 618 00:31:43.254 --> 00:31:44.474 We'll see. 619 00:31:44.514 --> 00:31:47.454 We did start with a pretty significant tribute to 620 00:31:48.614 --> 00:31:49.214 Carl Bell 621 00:31:50.154 --> 00:31:53.414 at our meeting, and it was a wonderful tribute Mr. Deacon put on. 622 00:31:53.914 --> 00:31:57.574 But one of the things he came up with, and there were so many, was the 623 00:31:58.134 --> 00:32:01.934 headlights for golf carts and our ability to drive at 624 00:32:02.014 --> 00:32:02.184 night. 625 00:32:03.154 --> 00:32:07.084 And it was just a wonderful tribute, and Carl Bell really did a 626 00:32:07.114 --> 00:32:07.934 lot of things for us. 627 00:32:09.694 --> 00:32:13.414 And I certainly like the RPMs. I hope we do go forward with RPMs. 628 00:32:13.454 --> 00:32:17.354 That's a great idea. I like them, too, when CDD5 put them in. 629 00:32:18.354 --> 00:32:21.394 And I really like your idea about highlighting the, 630 00:32:22.834 --> 00:32:25.074 what do you call it? The golf cart paths on Morris Boulevard. 631 00:32:25.834 --> 00:32:29.534 But I, too, have been working on it for many years, trying to find some 632 00:32:29.614 --> 00:32:30.994 solution to Morris Boulevard. 633 00:32:31.394 --> 00:32:34.994 Yeah, I'm more of a get on base with balls and maybe steal 634 00:32:35.134 --> 00:32:35.814 second and 635 00:32:36.774 --> 00:32:39.894 get forced to third and get home. You're a home run hitter, but we're both swinging 636 00:32:39.914 --> 00:32:40.334 bats at the same time. 637 00:32:40.354 --> 00:32:41.334 I think we are, for sure. 638 00:32:42.154 --> 00:32:42.794 Thank you. 639 00:32:43.934 --> 00:32:47.154 There was the policy change on amenity fees, which I thought was a interesting 640 00:32:47.254 --> 00:32:49.734 issue, where people are hitting the gates. 641 00:32:50.674 --> 00:32:54.614 And in my mind, if you hit the gate, it costs 250 bucks, you fix it. 642 00:32:55.174 --> 00:32:56.853 Well, apparently not everyone was paying. 643 00:32:57.374 --> 00:33:01.234 They just hit the gate, knock it over, and we're picking up the cost. 644 00:33:01.674 --> 00:33:04.714 But I guess we made some moves on that, too. 645 00:33:05.514 --> 00:33:09.474 And that's an interesting thing, just by highlighting that if they start 646 00:33:09.494 --> 00:33:13.134 threatening you with your amenity fees, well, maybe you're going to pay your 647 00:33:13.144 --> 00:33:17.134 $250 and fix that particular thing, that 648 00:33:17.214 --> 00:33:18.634 gate. So that was good. 649 00:33:19.754 --> 00:33:23.014 Then Paradise Recreation Center's come along, and there's the big deals about 650 00:33:23.054 --> 00:33:26.334 Paradise. I just think it's going to be a beautiful thing once it's done, 651 00:33:26.994 --> 00:33:29.134 and I think we're getting much closer to having that 652 00:33:29.994 --> 00:33:33.274 Paradise come online. It's going to be a beautiful facility over there for 653 00:33:33.354 --> 00:33:37.254 everyone. It is budget time, and during the budget thing, we talked 654 00:33:37.334 --> 00:33:39.694 about Savannah, and we're going to renovate the bathrooms. 655 00:33:40.334 --> 00:33:44.144 And there was a nice long discussion about touch-free things 656 00:33:44.214 --> 00:33:44.344 and 657 00:33:45.694 --> 00:33:49.654 touching things. And I guess we went along with let's use 658 00:33:49.734 --> 00:33:50.854 the electronics 659 00:33:51.774 --> 00:33:54.094 for all the things so people don't have to touch anything. 660 00:33:55.114 --> 00:33:58.414 Not sure. There was plenty of controversy in the Village News about that, too. 661 00:33:59.794 --> 00:34:03.334 There was a golf report. Hawksbay's got a sinkhole, 662 00:34:04.214 --> 00:34:07.994 and I didn't know it was a sinkhole as bad as it looked there, and apparently, they 663 00:34:08.015 --> 00:34:11.734 want to fix that right away. So there's a lot of golf courses that are down 664 00:34:11.794 --> 00:34:15.515 now, but they're going to shut Hawksbay down and try and fix that thing 665 00:34:15.594 --> 00:34:17.834 permanently so it doesn't get any worse. 666 00:34:19.274 --> 00:34:23.194 And then finally, we got into our Morris Boulevards, since you brought that up. 667 00:34:23.475 --> 00:34:26.034 Brought it up a little earlier than I wanted to, but you did. 668 00:34:26.734 --> 00:34:26.944 And 669 00:34:28.834 --> 00:34:30.995 I'm still on a swinging a bat. Now I know you 670 00:34:32.034 --> 00:34:32.394 call it 671 00:34:34.174 --> 00:34:35.074 shooting in the wind. But 672 00:34:36.854 --> 00:34:39.975 the one thing that I came up with that might solve the problem, 673 00:34:40.854 --> 00:34:43.515 and I don't know that it does solve the problem because traffic lights solve 674 00:34:43.554 --> 00:34:44.015 problems. 675 00:34:44.894 --> 00:34:47.633 But I asked that the developer, 676 00:34:48.475 --> 00:34:51.674 who has the ability to build it 677 00:34:51.694 --> 00:34:52.495 properly, 678 00:34:53.314 --> 00:34:57.124 implement one of the strategies from Kimley-Horn's report in 679 00:34:57.354 --> 00:34:58.114 2023. 680 00:35:00.454 --> 00:35:02.934 The big thing with the district is, and the big thing with Mr. 681 00:35:03.194 --> 00:35:07.074 Deacon is, we can't use amenity fees to build this thing 682 00:35:07.114 --> 00:35:08.034 or fix it right. 683 00:35:09.374 --> 00:35:13.274 If we can get by the legality, the legal part of 684 00:35:13.314 --> 00:35:17.074 it, that if the developer built it, we can go back and buy it from him, 685 00:35:18.174 --> 00:35:21.994 then maybe we can use our amenity fees to take care of the problem. 686 00:35:22.214 --> 00:35:25.114 It's always been the source. Where does this money come from? 687 00:35:25.734 --> 00:35:28.754 And I know your first thing was, "We don't have $15 million." 688 00:35:29.914 --> 00:35:33.894 You don't have it. We're not going to assess all the residents of CDD1 to build 689 00:35:33.914 --> 00:35:36.854 this thing. But if the developer built it and the 690 00:35:37.414 --> 00:35:41.234 entire group paid for it through amenity fees, and we 691 00:35:41.274 --> 00:35:45.134 do have, I think, some money for it, or if we had to float a bond, however that 692 00:35:45.154 --> 00:35:49.074 would work. First things first, will he be willing to do 693 00:35:49.154 --> 00:35:51.214 it? Is it legal for him to do it? 694 00:35:52.174 --> 00:35:55.114 If so, boom. It'll come back to the board. 695 00:35:55.774 --> 00:35:58.374 First things first, does he want to do it? Is it legal? 696 00:35:59.174 --> 00:36:02.334 And I'm not saying, "Listen, we've been kicking this thing down the road for a lot 697 00:36:02.374 --> 00:36:06.074 of months," and I don't know how many people really read that Kimley-Horn 698 00:36:06.114 --> 00:36:09.974 report from 2023. It's a good one. We paid a lot of money for it. 699 00:36:10.394 --> 00:36:14.054 If we can implement it, great. If we can't, we got to move down a path to something 700 00:36:14.114 --> 00:36:17.044 different. And I think highlighting the multimodals, 701 00:36:17.954 --> 00:36:21.454 widening the paths is probably the direction we're going to have to go for the 702 00:36:21.514 --> 00:36:22.754 first step in the process. 703 00:36:23.574 --> 00:36:26.994 And that's where I left it. Maybe next month or the month after, we'll 704 00:36:27.034 --> 00:36:29.234 get something from the developer 705 00:36:30.642 --> 00:36:32.902 His name is on the road. The family name is on the road. 706 00:36:33.302 --> 00:36:36.921 Maybe he does want to fix it properly. But he can do it properly. 707 00:36:37.502 --> 00:36:39.942 We just can't do it properly. So 708 00:36:40.902 --> 00:36:41.522 anything else? 709 00:36:41.682 --> 00:36:41.822 Any- 710 00:36:41.862 --> 00:36:42.502 Any questions? 711 00:36:42.742 --> 00:36:44.422 Any comments for Mr. Picardo? 712 00:36:44.982 --> 00:36:48.482 Don't be afraid. I got beat up pretty good last month. I came back. 713 00:36:50.762 --> 00:36:53.002 As you might expect, I do have a comment for you. 714 00:36:53.032 --> 00:36:53.242 Of course, sir. 715 00:36:54.962 --> 00:36:55.762 Because, 716 00:36:57.302 --> 00:36:59.061 and you may be surprised here, but 717 00:37:00.522 --> 00:37:02.122 I completely agree 718 00:37:03.662 --> 00:37:04.942 with the concept 719 00:37:05.802 --> 00:37:09.682 that the multimodal path is part of our amenities 720 00:37:09.722 --> 00:37:12.162 because that is the integral part 721 00:37:13.302 --> 00:37:13.942 of 722 00:37:14.742 --> 00:37:18.202 the way that we access all of our 723 00:37:18.262 --> 00:37:21.422 amenities that we have. Whether you're going to 724 00:37:22.202 --> 00:37:26.182 a recreation center or a golf course or pickleball, whatever it 725 00:37:26.222 --> 00:37:29.902 may be, that's how you get there in many, many cases. 726 00:37:29.962 --> 00:37:33.842 Some people drive cars, but a lot of villagers drive golf carts. 727 00:37:34.742 --> 00:37:38.662 The problem that I think that you face here is that you're trying 728 00:37:38.702 --> 00:37:40.082 to find a workaround 729 00:37:40.902 --> 00:37:42.082 for a legal 730 00:37:43.262 --> 00:37:44.282 interpretation 731 00:37:45.502 --> 00:37:48.622 versus taking on that interpretation head-on. 732 00:37:49.722 --> 00:37:53.622 You have one person that has decided that you can't 733 00:37:53.682 --> 00:37:54.202 do something, 734 00:37:55.782 --> 00:37:59.622 and I think there are a lot of differing opinions out there, 735 00:37:59.682 --> 00:38:00.722 and I think the board 736 00:38:01.802 --> 00:38:02.362 could be 737 00:38:03.482 --> 00:38:06.462 in the position to say, "We want another 738 00:38:07.202 --> 00:38:11.042 independent legal opinion here," so that it 739 00:38:11.142 --> 00:38:14.002 opens the door for discussion, and it might 740 00:38:14.922 --> 00:38:17.362 create a way for you to 741 00:38:17.902 --> 00:38:21.462 fund the multimodal path from an amenity piece. 742 00:38:21.562 --> 00:38:24.282 But I'll tell you, I think that's a two-edged sword. 743 00:38:25.442 --> 00:38:29.362 Multimodal paths could be extremely expensive, and that's going to take 744 00:38:29.482 --> 00:38:33.262 money away from the maintenance of the amenities that we currently enjoy. 745 00:38:33.902 --> 00:38:37.082 So there's a lot of caution there, even from my standpoint, 746 00:38:38.162 --> 00:38:42.082 as to how those funds would be utilized and how 747 00:38:42.242 --> 00:38:45.962 much that might take away from the funds that were 748 00:38:46.002 --> 00:38:46.902 available to 749 00:38:48.162 --> 00:38:51.042 do a new Paradise Recreation Center, let's say. 750 00:38:51.182 --> 00:38:54.382 Well, I think, and I'm with you. You know what I mean? 751 00:38:54.782 --> 00:38:56.922 First things first, one, is it legal? 752 00:38:57.522 --> 00:38:57.882 Two, 753 00:38:59.762 --> 00:39:00.882 will the developer do it? 754 00:39:01.122 --> 00:39:01.422 Mm-hmm. 755 00:39:01.982 --> 00:39:05.442 Then do we want to fund it? Let's get by those three hurdles. 756 00:39:05.502 --> 00:39:09.142 Believe me, there's so many hurdles we've been jumping over for four years. 757 00:39:09.842 --> 00:39:12.192 It's amazing that we're here. But- 758 00:39:12.612 --> 00:39:12.662 Yeah 759 00:39:12.672 --> 00:39:16.312 ... there is a pot of money at the Amenity Authority Committee that I think is 760 00:39:16.362 --> 00:39:19.862 available should we really get to the point of saying, 761 00:39:20.491 --> 00:39:22.472 "Yes, we'll pay for it." So. 762 00:39:22.542 --> 00:39:24.802 I hope you will move along with the Morris- 763 00:39:24.862 --> 00:39:25.202 We will move 764 00:39:25.282 --> 00:39:25.782 ... Boulevard- 765 00:39:25.802 --> 00:39:26.102 We will move 766 00:39:26.241 --> 00:39:26.692 ... safety, 767 00:39:27.902 --> 00:39:31.822 and fund it with the funds that you have available, and address 768 00:39:31.862 --> 00:39:35.822 the legal issue about whether or not you can fund multimodal 769 00:39:35.942 --> 00:39:39.322 paths at a different time. But thank you for your efforts there. 770 00:39:39.382 --> 00:39:41.462 You're welcome. Any other thing? Thank you. 771 00:39:41.822 --> 00:39:42.962 That's all. Thank you. 772 00:39:43.902 --> 00:39:44.182 All right. 773 00:39:45.902 --> 00:39:49.652 District Council, just one report to go over your 2026 legislative 774 00:39:49.702 --> 00:39:53.542 update. Chapter 2026-164 Florida laws 775 00:39:53.562 --> 00:39:57.042 was passed, and that creates Section 190.0071, 776 00:39:57.822 --> 00:40:00.862 establishing recall procedures for elected CDD supervisors. 777 00:40:01.482 --> 00:40:05.182 Amend Section 190.006, making elected 778 00:40:05.242 --> 00:40:07.542 supervisors subject to the new recall procedures. 779 00:40:08.922 --> 00:40:12.862 It also revises the definition of compact urban mixed use district 780 00:40:12.902 --> 00:40:16.372 in Section 190.003. And finally, it 781 00:40:16.402 --> 00:40:20.302 clarifies that the synthetic turf preemption does not restrict the CDD 782 00:40:20.362 --> 00:40:21.842 from enforcing deed restrictions. 783 00:40:22.582 --> 00:40:25.622 I think that's the important one that many people had questions about after that 784 00:40:25.682 --> 00:40:26.482 synthetic turf 785 00:40:27.342 --> 00:40:30.182 law was passed. Well, now there's a preemption, so 786 00:40:31.422 --> 00:40:34.382 it doesn't apply to CDDs. We can continue to enforce our rule. 787 00:40:35.002 --> 00:40:37.122 So that's status quo. There'll be no change there. 788 00:40:38.522 --> 00:40:42.202 Finally, the governor vetoed House Bill 145, and that's a bill that 789 00:40:42.922 --> 00:40:46.182 sought to increase the sovereign immunity caps on local governments. 790 00:40:46.722 --> 00:40:48.942 Again, that was vetoed, so status quo there. 791 00:40:49.341 --> 00:40:51.722 You still have sovereign immunity, and the caps are as they were before. 792 00:40:52.162 --> 00:40:52.981 No other changes. 793 00:40:53.982 --> 00:40:54.762 Any questions? 794 00:40:56.182 --> 00:40:59.942 So all those people that had plans to put artificial turf in their front 795 00:40:59.982 --> 00:41:03.902 yard, those are over. You can forget that and go back to the grass. 796 00:41:04.202 --> 00:41:04.962 Okay. Correct. 797 00:41:05.942 --> 00:41:08.062 All right. Supervisor comments. 798 00:41:10.462 --> 00:41:11.042 I have nothing. 799 00:41:12.502 --> 00:41:16.382 Well, on Monday, since there weren't any rumors about Tierra Del Sol 800 00:41:17.002 --> 00:41:19.582 usage, the attendance at the forum was down. 801 00:41:20.192 --> 00:41:24.022 But we had a good meeting. Mike Harris came from 802 00:41:24.942 --> 00:41:28.762 property management and let us know all the things that are going 803 00:41:28.822 --> 00:41:32.522 on around the villages, and then addressed a couple of 804 00:41:32.582 --> 00:41:35.042 questions that were particular to District 1. 805 00:41:35.562 --> 00:41:39.022 And I want to thank you, Mike, for coming. We really appreciate that. 806 00:41:39.052 --> 00:41:39.322 And 807 00:41:41.742 --> 00:41:43.362 we'll see you again in October. 808 00:41:44.042 --> 00:41:44.462 All right. 809 00:41:46.042 --> 00:41:49.682 Again, I appreciate you doing that, and I think it's really important for us to get 810 00:41:49.742 --> 00:41:53.602 feedback. Obviously, we don't attend your meeting because that 811 00:41:53.642 --> 00:41:57.342 would be illegal, but we certainly appreciate your efforts there. 812 00:41:57.842 --> 00:42:00.102 And thank you for informing our 813 00:42:01.202 --> 00:42:02.282 constituents, Mike. 814 00:42:03.282 --> 00:42:05.802 My one comment is at the last meeting, 815 00:42:06.642 --> 00:42:08.282 we talked about the mowing of the 816 00:42:09.382 --> 00:42:10.962 preserve. And 817 00:42:12.122 --> 00:42:15.962 at that point, I really felt like that we had done everything we 818 00:42:16.002 --> 00:42:19.922 possibly could to address the issue, and I think 819 00:42:19.982 --> 00:42:21.422 we certainly have done a lot. 820 00:42:22.222 --> 00:42:25.722 There is one thing that I feel like that I probably missed, or 821 00:42:26.222 --> 00:42:29.042 not probably, I did miss it. And I've heard from the 822 00:42:29.882 --> 00:42:32.802 community there about the actual effect on the 823 00:42:32.902 --> 00:42:35.822 wildlife in that particular area. 824 00:42:36.142 --> 00:42:36.382 So 825 00:42:37.594 --> 00:42:41.503 I've asked Mike to come forward and tell us what 826 00:42:41.814 --> 00:42:44.014 the most recent things that have happened on the preserve. 827 00:42:44.614 --> 00:42:46.514 Mike Harris, district property management. 828 00:42:47.334 --> 00:42:51.054 The first contact with Southwest Florida Water Management District 829 00:42:51.094 --> 00:42:53.274 indicated that we were just going to let it grow back. 830 00:42:53.434 --> 00:42:55.074 They were happy with what happened. 831 00:42:55.874 --> 00:42:59.094 Found no impact on wildlife. There was a couple of ruts there that were going to be 832 00:42:59.174 --> 00:42:59.534 fixed. 833 00:43:00.454 --> 00:43:04.294 But since then, somebody's climbed up to the top of Southwest Florida 834 00:43:04.354 --> 00:43:07.654 Water Management District and basically initialized 835 00:43:09.134 --> 00:43:12.594 a demand letter from them to us saying, "Hey, you need to send us a plan by 836 00:43:12.654 --> 00:43:15.154 July," I think it's 16th or 17th. 837 00:43:16.294 --> 00:43:19.494 After I spoke to you this morning, I actually got that letter from BDA. 838 00:43:19.674 --> 00:43:21.294 So what we're 839 00:43:23.314 --> 00:43:27.274 basically putting out there and requesting is for us to monitor 840 00:43:27.294 --> 00:43:31.034 that area for a year and provide them with updates on the regrowth. 841 00:43:31.674 --> 00:43:35.583 So we hope that if that gets accepted, no further action will 842 00:43:35.634 --> 00:43:38.804 be needed. But if they do come back and say, "Hey, you got to plant some stuff, or 843 00:43:38.814 --> 00:43:42.514 you got to do something," we'll immediately go after the contractor for those 844 00:43:42.574 --> 00:43:42.974 costs. 845 00:43:43.234 --> 00:43:43.414 Okay. 846 00:43:43.714 --> 00:43:46.454 And I'll keep you updated as everything progresses. 847 00:43:48.354 --> 00:43:50.374 The one only other 848 00:43:51.274 --> 00:43:55.234 comment I would have there, Mike, is since the wildlife 849 00:43:55.874 --> 00:43:59.654 has been affected, I would like to see us reach out to the Florida 850 00:43:59.774 --> 00:44:03.454 Wildlife Commission and just ask them if there are 851 00:44:03.494 --> 00:44:07.074 remedial efforts that should be taking place as part of that plan, 852 00:44:07.894 --> 00:44:11.554 or if the impact is such that it's going to be restored 853 00:44:11.714 --> 00:44:15.574 naturally. I'd just like to know from them that if there's something that 854 00:44:15.634 --> 00:44:19.214 we should be doing or the contractor should be doing to make this right, that 855 00:44:19.274 --> 00:44:20.924 we address that at this point in time. 856 00:44:20.954 --> 00:44:22.114 I'll take that. I'll make it happen. 857 00:44:22.374 --> 00:44:24.434 All right. Thank you very much, sir. 858 00:44:24.494 --> 00:44:24.974 Very good. 859 00:44:27.014 --> 00:44:28.914 Any further comments from 860 00:44:30.294 --> 00:44:31.054 supervisors? 861 00:44:32.054 --> 00:44:34.894 Okay. Well, you guys know what's next. 862 00:44:35.654 --> 00:44:37.174 We'll entertain a motion to adjourn. 863 00:44:37.194 --> 00:44:38.134 Motion to adjourn. 864 00:44:38.514 --> 00:44:39.294 We have a motion 865 00:44:40.194 --> 00:44:42.674 and a second on the floor. All in favor say aye. 866 00:44:42.914 --> 00:44:43.234 Aye. 867 00:44:44.354 --> 00:44:46.513 Motion carries unanimously. We're adjourned. 868 00:44:46.523 --> 00:44:47.954 All in favor, cut the noise.
