WEBVTT

1
00:00:00.120 --> 00:00:04.530
To order. We have a quorum, just missing Brandy, so we can proceed.

2
00:00:04.620 --> 00:00:06.539
Let's all please stand for the Pledge of Allegiance.

3
00:00:09.630 --> 00:00:13.980
I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the

4
00:00:14.010 --> 00:00:19.576
Republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and

5
00:00:19.710 --> 00:00:20.400
justice for all.

6
00:00:20.790 --> 00:00:22.290
Please observe a moment of silence.

7
00:00:24.600 --> 00:00:25.020
Thank you.

8
00:00:28.201 --> 00:00:31.260
I'd like to welcome our meeting attendees. Thanks for being here today.

9
00:00:31.620 --> 00:00:32.520
Our meeting attendee.

10
00:00:34.500 --> 00:00:39.540
So if you're here to voice some comments-- You're not. Okay.

11
00:00:39.600 --> 00:00:40.920
I'm happy to be here.

12
00:00:41.010 --> 00:00:43.680
Yeah. Well, we're happy you're here, too. Tell all your friends about it.

13
00:00:44.010 --> 00:00:45.661
We don't get a lot of attendance at these.

14
00:00:46.395 --> 00:00:46.635
I'm happy to be here again.

15
00:00:46.635 --> 00:00:49.200
Okay. Yeah. No worries. Okay.

16
00:00:49.500 --> 00:00:50.340
I only get here twice a week.

17
00:00:50.640 --> 00:00:51.090
Oh, okay.

18
00:00:51.840 --> 00:00:52.440
Well, welcome.

19
00:00:52.680 --> 00:00:54.750
Yeah, welcome. You're getting engaged. It's great to see.

20
00:00:54.810 --> 00:00:56.130
Yeah, absolutely.

21
00:00:56.310 --> 00:00:58.890
So next on the agenda, law enforcement update.

22
00:00:59.610 --> 00:01:03.120
So if you'd like to come to the podium and just give us your name and who you

23
00:01:03.180 --> 00:01:03.674
serve, yeah.

24
00:01:04.125 --> 00:01:04.125
Sure.

25
00:01:04.140 --> 00:01:04.680
You just give us-

26
00:01:05.340 --> 00:01:05.356
I don't mind.

27
00:01:05.430 --> 00:01:11.280
Oh, okay. That's fine. We appreciate the PD, I think now

28
00:01:11.340 --> 00:01:12.660
has a dedicated-

29
00:01:13.500 --> 00:01:13.980
Correct.

30
00:01:14.010 --> 00:01:15.090
I don't know if it's yourself or-

31
00:01:15.150 --> 00:01:15.600
That would be me.

32
00:01:15.705 --> 00:01:16.290
Okay, great.

33
00:01:16.680 --> 00:01:19.575
Yeah. How you guys doing? My name is Christian Spencer.

34
00:01:19.620 --> 00:01:21.000
I work for the Wallook Police Department.

35
00:01:21.270 --> 00:01:24.134
This is my first time being here, and I'm not really good at talking in front of

36
00:01:24.150 --> 00:01:29.115
people. So yeah, I came here, I'm like, "Hey, am I in the right place?" But yeah,

37
00:01:29.580 --> 00:01:33.180
Pearl Lieutenant Perry and Lieutenant Harry, sorry for them they couldn't be here

38
00:01:33.240 --> 00:01:37.170
today, but as I said, I'm assigned to Middleton and Eastport specific area, so

39
00:01:37.319 --> 00:01:40.170
you're going to see more patrol, well, me, around the area.

40
00:01:41.130 --> 00:01:45.301
But at this time, they just wanted me to report there's no major crimes, just

41
00:01:45.360 --> 00:01:48.990
simple accidents, like traffic accidents, but nothing major to report at this time

42
00:01:49.021 --> 00:01:49.860
from law enforcement.

43
00:01:49.920 --> 00:01:54.255
I don't know if it's I that I spoke with you the other day about the juveniles and

44
00:01:54.271 --> 00:01:55.260
the motorcycles.

45
00:01:55.351 --> 00:01:56.400
That was me, yes.

46
00:01:56.490 --> 00:01:58.290
Okay. And I think you were successful in the-

47
00:01:58.560 --> 00:01:59.055
Yes, correct

48
00:01:59.190 --> 00:02:00.000
... underlying issue.

49
00:02:00.016 --> 00:02:05.190
So pretty much the main concern that we get most of the time is just EV

50
00:02:05.220 --> 00:02:11.101
bikes in the Middleton area. Me personally, I don't think it's more

51
00:02:11.130 --> 00:02:15.150
of juveniles just being kids. They just go in the village property, and they just

52
00:02:15.210 --> 00:02:17.130
go in the grass with their EV bikes.

53
00:02:17.940 --> 00:02:20.310
I spoke with the parents and gave them a warning.

54
00:02:20.820 --> 00:02:23.460
I did actually pull one over yesterday.

55
00:02:24.030 --> 00:02:27.810
He was just using his phone while driving 20 miles an hour on a bike.

56
00:02:27.870 --> 00:02:33.315
So I gave him a citation. Hopefully, that's not my way to go, but to be fair, I've

57
00:02:33.315 --> 00:02:35.550
already given him warning at that time.

58
00:02:36.300 --> 00:02:40.275
But yeah, that's pretty much most of the stuff that's happening over there in

59
00:02:40.320 --> 00:02:44.641
Middleton is kids riding around the bikes and EV bikes and stuff like that.

60
00:02:44.820 --> 00:02:47.160
Good. Well, we appreciate you being here and your service.

61
00:02:47.220 --> 00:02:48.930
Yeah. Yeah, we do appreciate that. Thanks for the update.

62
00:02:48.990 --> 00:02:50.580
Glad to hear things are pretty quiet.

63
00:02:50.641 --> 00:02:50.970
Thank you.

64
00:02:51.000 --> 00:02:53.820
I appreciate it. Yeah. If you guys have any concerns or anything like that, I'll

65
00:02:54.060 --> 00:02:58.200
provide you with my phone number. Guys, feel free to call me, and any time, any

66
00:02:58.351 --> 00:03:00.391
incidents, I'll be more than happy to help.

67
00:03:00.421 --> 00:03:00.990
Great. Thank you.

68
00:03:01.351 --> 00:03:01.365
All right.

69
00:03:01.365 --> 00:03:01.830
It's nice meeting you.

70
00:03:01.980 --> 00:03:02.880
Thanks for being here.

71
00:03:03.300 --> 00:03:03.645
I'll be here.

72
00:03:04.965 --> 00:03:09.060
All right, next up, consent agenda. Just need a motion to approve that.

73
00:03:09.810 --> 00:03:11.220
Motion to approve the consent agenda.

74
00:03:11.430 --> 00:03:13.351
Thank you, Brandon. May I have a second to approve?

75
00:03:13.799 --> 00:03:14.459
Second.

76
00:03:14.520 --> 00:03:15.150
All in favor?

77
00:03:15.630 --> 00:03:16.139
Aye.

78
00:03:16.201 --> 00:03:19.260
All right. Consent agenda, motion passes.

79
00:03:20.520 --> 00:03:22.351
The next item, Mr. Chair, is a public hearing.

80
00:03:22.440 --> 00:03:28.320
That's for adoption of Resolution 2026-09, your final fiscal year 26-27

81
00:03:28.531 --> 00:03:33.150
budget. And Ms. Cook will go over the final budget details, and we'll ask you to

82
00:03:33.421 --> 00:03:34.244
open the public hearing.

83
00:03:34.305 --> 00:03:34.680
Yes, sir.

84
00:03:36.451 --> 00:03:41.940
Brandy Cook, budget. So I'm here today to request adoption of Resolution 2026-09 to

85
00:03:42.000 --> 00:03:45.180
approve your fiscal year 2026-27 final budget.

86
00:03:45.930 --> 00:03:50.851
As you know, you reviewed the recommended budget at your May regular meeting, at

87
00:03:50.880 --> 00:03:55.710
which point you discussed the 2026-27 budget fund balance forecast for the next

88
00:03:55.770 --> 00:03:59.370
five fiscal years, your maintenance assessment schedule, and your working capital

89
00:03:59.400 --> 00:04:05.250
and reserve balances. At that time, there was direction to staff to come back

90
00:04:05.281 --> 00:04:08.520
with a proposed budget with no change to the maintenance assessments.

91
00:04:09.690 --> 00:04:14.101
As you know, the maintenance assessments did include some adjustments due to final

92
00:04:14.130 --> 00:04:16.710
platting and the corresponding changes in assessable acreage.

93
00:04:17.281 --> 00:04:21.570
So the maintenance assessments do have a slight decrease to several of the property

94
00:04:21.660 --> 00:04:24.690
sites, with the only one being at zero.

95
00:04:26.250 --> 00:04:32.220
It's a net of -3.31% for the totality of the assessments.

96
00:04:33.451 --> 00:04:34.531
So at this time,

97
00:04:35.910 --> 00:04:40.020
we would recommend the Board of Supervisors adopt your Resolution 2026-09 to

98
00:04:40.050 --> 00:04:44.850
approve your fiscal year 26-27 budget with your general fund at

99
00:04:44.865 --> 00:04:50.835
$2,738,799, which is a $401,000 decrease from

100
00:04:50.850 --> 00:04:54.510
the current year amended budget, mostly due to your project-wide fees from the

101
00:04:54.540 --> 00:04:59.070
final cost allocations. And from your proposed budget, there was a slight decrease

102
00:04:59.100 --> 00:05:04.350
of approximately $5,000 due to final compliance services allocation.

103
00:05:05.310 --> 00:05:08.550
We also have your 2022 Phase One debt service fund at

104
00:05:08.565 --> 00:05:14.100
$2,979,766, and your 2024 Phase Two

105
00:05:14.550 --> 00:05:20.295
debt service fund at $1,623,677. And I'm here if there's any

106
00:05:20.341 --> 00:05:22.650
questions. Otherwise, I'd request you open your public hearing.

107
00:05:23.220 --> 00:05:25.290
Thank you. Any questions before we open the hearing?

108
00:05:27.570 --> 00:05:30.630
Seeing none, I will now open the public hearing for the Middleton Community

109
00:05:30.690 --> 00:05:35.730
Development District fiscal year 2026-27 budget. Any public comments on the budget?

110
00:05:38.040 --> 00:05:43.020
Seeing none, I will now close to the public hearing for that and ask for a motion

111
00:05:43.080 --> 00:05:46.830
to approve the fiscal year 2026-27 final budget.

112
00:05:47.341 --> 00:05:48.060
Motion to approve.

113
00:05:48.600 --> 00:05:49.140
Thank you, David.

114
00:05:49.650 --> 00:05:52.725
On this one, we're going to want to read in the entire motion that's on your

115
00:05:52.770 --> 00:05:53.790
outline at number seven.

116
00:05:53.850 --> 00:05:54.870
Okay. My bad.

117
00:05:55.080 --> 00:05:56.010
To include the figures.

118
00:05:58.230 --> 00:05:59.070
Okay, got you.

119
00:06:02.040 --> 00:06:02.341
All right.

120
00:06:02.400 --> 00:06:02.910
Number seven.

121
00:06:03.390 --> 00:06:03.720
All right.

122
00:06:07.050 --> 00:06:13.020
Move to adopt Resolution 2026-09 to approve the fiscal year 2026-27

123
00:06:13.080 --> 00:06:15.810
final budget in the amount of general funds

124
00:06:15.841 --> 00:06:21.480
$2,738,799. 2022 debt service

125
00:06:21.510 --> 00:06:27.240
fund $2,979,766. 2024 debt

126
00:06:27.300 --> 00:06:32.401
service fund $1,623,677.

127
00:06:33.570 --> 00:06:35.686
Thank you, David. May I have a second for the motion?

128
00:06:36.540 --> 00:06:36.811
Second.

129
00:06:37.620 --> 00:06:41.160
Any board discussion before we take a vote?

130
00:06:42.660 --> 00:06:44.701
Okay. All in favor of the motion?

131
00:06:45.300 --> 00:06:45.690
Aye.

132
00:06:46.740 --> 00:06:48.240
All are in favor, so the motion passes.

133
00:06:48.480 --> 00:06:48.870
Thank you.

134
00:06:49.020 --> 00:06:52.651
Thank you.

135
00:06:52.695 --> 00:06:57.480
The next item for new business is adoption of Resolution 2026-10 for the certified

136
00:06:57.510 --> 00:06:59.430
non-homogenome assessment role.

137
00:06:59.550 --> 00:07:05.130
So as you know, per Florida Statutes 197.3632,

138
00:07:06.030 --> 00:07:08.865
local governments have certified a non-homogenome assessment role, which is

139
00:07:08.910 --> 00:07:12.615
corresponding to your budget for both the maintenance assessments and your

140
00:07:12.630 --> 00:07:16.454
development assessments. This also uses the uniform collection method through the

141
00:07:16.470 --> 00:07:20.040
tax collector, that'll come in your property tax bill each and every year.

142
00:07:20.160 --> 00:07:25.320
So this is just certifying that role, and we just need your approval today to adopt

143
00:07:25.350 --> 00:07:29.610
Resolution 2026-10 certifying that non-homogenome assessment role for the fiscal

144
00:07:29.701 --> 00:07:30.990
year 2026-27.

145
00:07:31.800 --> 00:07:34.440
Thank you, Kenny. Any questions? All right.

146
00:07:34.530 --> 00:07:36.151
May I have a motion to adopt the resolution?

147
00:07:37.890 --> 00:07:38.550
Move to approve.

148
00:07:39.420 --> 00:07:41.100
Thank you, Brandon. May I have a second, please?

149
00:07:42.420 --> 00:07:42.811
I second.

150
00:07:43.260 --> 00:07:44.610
Thank you, David. All in favor?

151
00:07:45.300 --> 00:07:45.570
Aye.

152
00:07:46.020 --> 00:07:47.550
All are in favor, motion passes.

153
00:07:49.110 --> 00:07:51.165
Thank you.

154
00:07:51.240 --> 00:07:52.290
Information items.

155
00:07:52.561 --> 00:07:55.831
If there's any questions, we're certainly here to address those questions.

156
00:07:55.920 --> 00:07:57.540
If not, we can move on to my reports.

157
00:07:57.570 --> 00:07:59.670
All right. Do you have the district manager?

158
00:08:00.000 --> 00:08:02.730
Just a couple calendar save the dates.

159
00:08:02.850 --> 00:08:07.425
One for a night out with DPM on September 23rd at the Rohand Rec Center from 4:00

160
00:08:07.425 --> 00:08:12.390
to 6:00. DPM does this annually to communicate with the residents, so they can find

161
00:08:12.405 --> 00:08:17.430
out what does DPM do for the development and for the entire villages, how they

162
00:08:17.490 --> 00:08:20.776
maintain the infrastructure, maintain the landscaping, et cetera.

163
00:08:20.850 --> 00:08:23.460
So it's a good time for interaction with the residents, come out and speak with

164
00:08:23.490 --> 00:08:27.811
them. The second save the date is the National Night Out on October 6th with

165
00:08:27.901 --> 00:08:32.490
Community Watch. Community Watch annually puts this program together as its

166
00:08:32.820 --> 00:08:35.401
National Night Out. It is a national event with local law enforcement, first

167
00:08:35.461 --> 00:08:41.175
responders, EMS personnel, and they all come out to Rohand Rec from 5:00 to 7:00.

168
00:08:41.190 --> 00:08:45.390
You can intermingle with the residents, have a lot of good giveaways, and just the

169
00:08:45.420 --> 00:08:48.990
kids come out, grandkids come out, and they just have a great time just meeting

170
00:08:49.005 --> 00:08:54.570
with the firemen, the ambulance, EMTs, the policemen, and engage and have that

171
00:08:54.600 --> 00:08:57.240
communication with them. So just a couple save the dates for that.

172
00:08:57.660 --> 00:09:00.901
And just to remind you, your next meeting is November 12th here in this room at

173
00:09:01.020 --> 00:09:05.280
four o'clock. Remember, we changed the time to four o'clock as opposed to 4:30.

174
00:09:05.490 --> 00:09:06.090
So those are all my reports.

175
00:09:06.151 --> 00:09:11.535
Are those two events open to only residents or anyone can attend, employees, et

176
00:09:11.550 --> 00:09:11.910
cetera?

177
00:09:12.090 --> 00:09:12.151
Yeah.

178
00:09:12.165 --> 00:09:18.030
Are those advertised anywhere? Like the marketing, where would people find

179
00:09:18.061 --> 00:09:18.855
information for these?

180
00:09:19.290 --> 00:09:21.989
Typically, we send them out. It's in our newsletter.

181
00:09:22.710 --> 00:09:26.056
Usually, I think the Daily Sun just puts out information about it, so and of

182
00:09:26.100 --> 00:09:27.030
course, on our website.

183
00:09:27.390 --> 00:09:30.720
Yeah. Daily Sun definitely promotes that as well.

184
00:09:31.950 --> 00:09:31.965
Mm-hmm.

185
00:09:31.980 --> 00:09:34.290
All right. District Council, any updates?

186
00:09:34.410 --> 00:09:35.010
No reports.

187
00:09:35.311 --> 00:09:38.580
Thank you, Mark. Any supervisor comments before we adjourn?

188
00:09:40.290 --> 00:09:40.651
Nothing.

189
00:09:40.890 --> 00:09:42.989
Seeing none, we are adjourned. Thanks, everybody.
