No. 281 00:12:23.105 --> 00:12:25.365 I'm wondering why we wouldn't want to try 282 00:12:25.365 --> 00:12:27.245 to accommodate the, uh, the resident. 283 00:12:28.115 --> 00:12:31.095 We did, uh, we went out there with two proposals. 284 00:12:31.605 --> 00:12:33.535 Both were presented and both were rejected 285 00:12:34.355 --> 00:12:36.255 By the, by the, uh, homeowner. 286 00:12:37.635 --> 00:12:39.415 Yes. He is here today. Yes, sir. 287 00:12:40.695 --> 00:12:43.415 I I didn't hear that part. Well, we'll hear. Well, both 288 00:12:43.415 --> 00:12:45.015 Parts were rejected by the homeowner. 289 00:12:45.875 --> 00:12:50.375 So yes, the intent is to maintain the sod as is 290 00:12:50.525 --> 00:12:51.575 what we had recommended. 291 00:12:52.075 --> 00:12:55.095 The other option would be to install ground cover 292 00:12:55.365 --> 00:12:57.895 that requires no maintenance, very little maintenance. 293 00:12:58.165 --> 00:13:00.895 I'll correct that. There'll be no mowing, no weed eating. 294 00:13:01.035 --> 00:13:03.095 You know, the, the, the concern was scalping of the, 295 00:13:03.155 --> 00:13:04.295 of the sod that is there now. 296 00:13:04.715 --> 00:13:06.775 So, but that is not the design intent, 297 00:13:07.735 --> 00:13:08.735 I underst to Understand. 298 00:13:08.955 --> 00:13:13.575 Yes, sir. But I, if I recall, I think the initial 299 00:13:14.415 --> 00:13:17.575 complaint was that, uh, he, the homeowner 300 00:13:18.095 --> 00:13:19.455 complained about, uh, 301 00:13:20.795 --> 00:13:23.735 Wasn't maintained, Wasn't no, it wasn't maintained. 302 00:13:24.075 --> 00:13:28.855 But the weed wacker cut deeply into the side. Yes, sir. 303 00:13:28.855 --> 00:13:30.695 That was my understanding of the original complaint 304 00:13:30.695 --> 00:13:32.695 that they had scalped the district 305 00:13:33.035 --> 00:13:35.975 by property area cutting it too short, mowing it too short. 306 00:13:36.315 --> 00:13:38.175 Or they had scalped it with a weed eater, 307 00:13:38.835 --> 00:13:40.015 the landscaping contractor. 308 00:13:42.235 --> 00:13:45.215 Any other questions? Supervisor Wacker, Mr. Noll? 309 00:13:46.585 --> 00:13:49.055 Could I, could I ask how, how wide is this? 310 00:13:50.035 --> 00:13:51.295 No, I went out and looked at it. 311 00:13:51.435 --> 00:13:53.295 It seems like it's a pretty narrow area. 312 00:13:54.235 --> 00:13:55.575 It is a very small area. 313 00:13:55.575 --> 00:13:59.255 We're talking square foot and 150 square foot landscapers. 314 00:13:59.315 --> 00:14:01.055 The landscapers are usually cutting grass. 315 00:14:01.355 --> 00:14:05.335 The lawnmowers on our 36 48 inches. Correct. 316 00:14:05.875 --> 00:14:09.015 So I can see why they're not hitting that for the lawnmower. 317 00:14:09.575 --> 00:14:11.495 I believe that's, that's why they're using the weed eater. 318 00:14:11.495 --> 00:14:13.815 It's so small not to get their lawnmower in that area. 319 00:14:14.075 --> 00:14:17.415 And so a weed eater, it's really not designed ideal. 320 00:14:17.595 --> 00:14:18.735 Not a space. 321 00:14:19.275 --> 00:14:22.295 That's what'll be, when I looked at it, 322 00:14:22.295 --> 00:14:24.335 it seemed like it maybe a foot, maybe a foot and a half. 323 00:14:24.335 --> 00:14:25.855 It, it's a little, it's a little bigger than that. 324 00:14:27.515 --> 00:14:29.295 Um, speak to the mic. 325 00:14:31.995 --> 00:14:33.935 It, I, I see where the problem is 326 00:14:34.485 --> 00:14:36.415 because when they hit that with a weed whacker, 327 00:14:36.415 --> 00:14:37.575 they're not getting it smooth. 328 00:14:38.555 --> 00:14:42.455 And if I recall the homeowner was, uh, 329 00:14:45.595 --> 00:14:47.615 I'm trying to remember how he described himself, 330 00:14:47.795 --> 00:14:49.295 but he, he, 331 00:14:49.355 --> 00:14:51.095 he suggest we're gonna hear it from the homeowner. 332 00:14:51.195 --> 00:14:52.765 He's here today. He was a perfectionist 333 00:14:53.145 --> 00:14:55.805 and he thought it should look really nice the way 334 00:14:55.825 --> 00:14:56.925 he maintains his yard. 335 00:14:57.265 --> 00:15:00.165 Yes, sir. Um, so I can see where there might be a problem. 336 00:15:01.025 --> 00:15:04.485 Um, I'd like to hear from him. 337 00:15:05.045 --> 00:15:06.805 I, I, I've heard what you've said. 338 00:15:07.225 --> 00:15:09.485 I'd like to hear his side of it. 339 00:15:09.985 --> 00:15:14.685 Um, but you know, I did go out and look at it 340 00:15:14.825 --> 00:15:17.925 and it doesn't seem like it should be a 341 00:15:17.925 --> 00:15:19.045 big, big deal, Frank. 342 00:15:19.825 --> 00:15:21.925 No, I don't think it is either. Okay. 343 00:15:22.305 --> 00:15:24.525 That's, that's my comment.

And we don't care about that. Leave it alone. 414 00:18:18.335 --> 00:18:22.595 Um, I'm absolutely shocked at the, uh, price you guys got 415 00:18:22.695 --> 00:18:24.515 for, uh, doing the ground cover. 416 00:18:24.515 --> 00:18:26.235 That's ridiculous. One 417 00:18:26.235 --> 00:18:29.035 of my options when I was here last time is just tell the 418 00:18:29.035 --> 00:18:31.915 maintenance crews to stop cutting the grass. 419 00:18:32.815 --> 00:18:34.515 We share the same landscaper. 420 00:18:34.775 --> 00:18:37.795 The landscaper, uh, for a couple years, I, 421 00:18:37.795 --> 00:18:40.355 this is my third winter here, was cutting the grass. 422 00:18:40.375 --> 00:18:42.755 Now all of a sudden they're, the maintenance crews are 423 00:18:42.755 --> 00:18:45.475 cutting the grass and yes, they can use a lawnmower, 424 00:18:45.475 --> 00:18:46.755 they can use the big lawnmower. 425 00:18:46.945 --> 00:18:48.235 They don't have to use a weed wagon. 426 00:18:48.335 --> 00:18:52.075 The problem is they're weed whacking half of my front lawn. 427 00:18:52.415 --> 00:18:55.915 That's beyond your lot lines. That's the problem. 428 00:18:55.945 --> 00:19:00.035 They're damaging my lawn and it looks ridiculous. 429 00:19:00.215 --> 00:19:02.595 You, you drive up, my grass is cut 430 00:19:02.655 --> 00:19:04.915 and I, it's, it's the, um, St. 431 00:19:04.915 --> 00:19:06.715 Augustine, it's gotta be three inches high. 432 00:19:06.945 --> 00:19:11.315 They're scalping it and every time they cut it's different. 433 00:19:12.065 --> 00:19:15.475 Okay. So I don't want you guys spending the 11,000. 434 00:19:15.475 --> 00:19:17.395 That's a ridiculous number. I used to be a builder. 435 00:19:17.755 --> 00:19:19.395 I kicked that out of there so fast. 436 00:19:19.745 --> 00:19:21.315 It's the, they're ripping you off. 437 00:19:21.515 --> 00:19:24.075 That's a horrible price for, for the work that's being done. 438 00:19:24.615 --> 00:19:27.355 Um, just stop cutting it. Let us cut it. 439 00:19:28.065 --> 00:19:30.835 Take it off the rolls. Please can't do that. 440 00:19:30.855 --> 00:19:31.875 We will keep it nice. 441 00:19:32.255 --> 00:19:34.035 Our landscaper doesn't charge us anything. 442 00:19:34.385 --> 00:19:35.515 It's just a little strip. 443 00:19:37.065 --> 00:19:39.755 They, they, they, they just keep insisting on doing that. 444 00:19:39.825 --> 00:19:42.635 That I'm saying why. But again, once we do that 445 00:19:42.735 --> 00:19:46.155 and allow you to cut district property, we set a precedent 446 00:19:46.255 --> 00:19:48.515 and any other resident come in and say the same thing. 447 00:19:48.555 --> 00:19:50.395 I don't want you cutting it. I want to cut it. 448 00:19:50.415 --> 00:19:52.755 If we say no, then we're gonna go, 449 00:19:52.785 --> 00:19:53.835 then we're have a liability. 450 00:19:53.935 --> 00:19:55.635 Am I correct counselor? We can be sued for that. 451 00:19:55.695 --> 00:19:58.235 We can't, we can't do that. I understand that. Yeah. 452 00:19:58.255 --> 00:20:00.955 So, so the unfortunately, so it's a, it's a legality, 453 00:20:01.095 --> 00:20:04.075 but what can be done, uh, first of all, we need 454 00:20:04.075 --> 00:20:05.675 to work together a little more cooperatively. 455 00:20:06.075 --> 00:20:08.155 I don't know if this took place 'cause I wasn't there. 456 00:20:08.235 --> 00:20:09.715 I can only know what our people tell us. 457 00:20:09.935 --> 00:20:11.955 But you get one side story, you don't hear what, 458 00:20:11.985 --> 00:20:14.155 what I'm hearing coming in the insistent. 459 00:20:14.155 --> 00:20:17.475 So it's basically everything for the villages 460 00:20:17.695 --> 00:20:19.435 and not really necessarily the villages. 461 00:20:19.435 --> 00:20:21.395 Everything for the landscape company, 462 00:20:21.485 --> 00:20:23.675 their maintenance crews and nothing for us. 463 00:20:24.455 --> 00:20:27.675 You know, they can just come on and just make a mess 464 00:20:27.695 --> 00:20:29.875 and make my property look ridiculous. 465 00:20:30.135 --> 00:20:31.395 Mm-hmm. It looks, it's, 466 00:20:31.395 --> 00:20:32.755 you can't believe how stupid it looks. 467 00:20:33.105 --> 00:20:36.395 It's like, just stop cutting it. Let us do it. 468 00:20:36.735 --> 00:20:38.715 My landscaper doesn't charge us anything. 469 00:20:39.665 --> 00:20:41.395 Well, the bottom, it's such a small piece. 470 00:20:41.655 --> 00:20:44.475 The bottom line is we can't let you do it. Okay. 471 00:20:44.535 --> 00:20:45.635 That's, that's the problem. 472 00:20:45.855 --> 00:20:48.125 Now that doesn't mean it has to look the way it is now. 473 00:20:48.705 --> 00:20:50.965 Uh, I'm quite sure we can pay a little 474 00:20:50.965 --> 00:20:52.085 more attention to that. 475 00:20:52.145 --> 00:20:55.165 Am I correct And make sure that it is done properly 476 00:20:55.185 --> 00:20:57.885 and that it blends in and we'll go out 477 00:20:57.885 --> 00:21:00.045 and we can also check that to make sure it's being done. 478 00:21:00.465 --> 00:21:02.405 But what we can't do is say to you, yes, 479 00:21:02.425 --> 00:21:04.125 you can go ahead on Villages property. 480 00:21:04.145 --> 00:21:05.965 You can cut that, you can take care of that. 481 00:21:06.275 --> 00:21:08.085 That will not happen no matter what. 482 00:21:08.425 --> 00:21:11.725 If you look at this original design plan, okay, 483 00:21:12.265 --> 00:21:14.805 the maintenance crews aren't reading this properly. 484 00:21:15.075 --> 00:21:18.405 Okay. The big problem I have is this is my home right here. 485 00:21:18.795 --> 00:21:21.005 Okay? The bush is on 486 00:21:21.005 --> 00:21:22.685 and there's a straight line right there. 487 00:21:23.065 --> 00:21:25.805 Yep. Uh, perpendicular to the street. Right? I've seen it. 488 00:21:25.805 --> 00:21:28.365 Yeah. They're cutting this way at an angle. 489 00:21:29.465 --> 00:21:32.565 And like I said, every time they cut it's different. 490 00:21:33.705 --> 00:21:36.565 And sometimes it's actually literally half of my problem. 491 00:21:36.785 --> 00:21:38.845 You live in Patio Village, it's a postage stamp. 492 00:21:39.905 --> 00:21:41.045 It, you know, 493 00:21:41.145 --> 00:21:44.285 and they can't tell me you can't use a lawnmower 494 00:21:44.355 --> 00:21:47.285 because you can, it can be the wide lawnmower 495 00:21:47.285 --> 00:21:49.085 because half mower's on the street 496 00:21:49.625 --> 00:21:51.085 and the other half is on the grass. 497 00:21:51.425 --> 00:21:52.885 And that cuts it nice and easy. 498 00:21:53.065 --> 00:21:54.805 And when they show up at these weed whackers, 499 00:21:54.805 --> 00:21:56.365 they just, they don't care. 500 00:21:57.265 --> 00:21:59.645 And, and the fact that there, there's, 501 00:21:59.915 --> 00:22:03.085 there's nothing protecting me from them taking their wheat 502 00:22:03.085 --> 00:22:05.605 whacker and, and chopping the hell out of my front yard 503 00:22:06.305 --> 00:22:07.805 and they just keep doing it. 504 00:22:07.865 --> 00:22:10.925 And when I ask the guys, nobody will work with me. 505 00:22:10.945 --> 00:22:14.885 Nobody has any common sense. It's so frustrating. 506 00:22:15.025 --> 00:22:17.365 And yes, you know, you talk about me being a perfectionist, 507 00:22:17.445 --> 00:22:19.725 I was AED home builder, I was a cus uh, 508 00:22:20.005 --> 00:22:22.205 a commercial builder, but I was also a home inspector. 509 00:22:22.535 --> 00:22:25.445 Right. And so I'm sorry if my eye is critical, 510 00:22:25.865 --> 00:22:29.125 but I challenge any one of you guys to let your neighbor 511 00:22:29.805 --> 00:22:33.345 scalp half your front lawn and that's what's happening. 512 00:22:33.695 --> 00:22:34.985 Yeah. And the thing is, 513 00:22:34.985 --> 00:22:38.145 is when you look at the original plan, they're going 514 00:22:38.225 --> 00:22:41.465 with this plan where this is the street 515 00:22:41.845 --> 00:22:43.265 and you see these lines. 516 00:22:43.485 --> 00:22:45.705 Yep. All right.

Oh yeah. 706 00:30:22.985 --> 00:30:25.605 To say if we get the ground cover, we don't have 707 00:30:25.605 --> 00:30:27.005 to worry about any of this anymore. 708 00:30:27.755 --> 00:30:29.845 Well, isn't that what these two proposals are? 709 00:30:29.845 --> 00:30:31.965 That's what, yeah, that's what we talked about. 710 00:30:32.265 --> 00:30:35.405 Why I was focusing on, um, letting us maintain it. 711 00:30:35.405 --> 00:30:37.365 Because you know, I I I really don't want 712 00:30:37.365 --> 00:30:39.805 to watch you guys spend $11,000 on ground cover. 713 00:30:39.845 --> 00:30:41.445 I think it's a ridiculous price. But if you guys were 714 00:30:41.445 --> 00:30:43.285 willing to do that, that is the solution. 715 00:30:43.625 --> 00:30:45.885 The other problem that I have though, um, 716 00:30:47.105 --> 00:30:48.725 is I would just want an assurance 717 00:30:48.795 --> 00:30:51.125 that we have some final say so in 718 00:30:51.125 --> 00:30:52.605 where they place the ground cover. 719 00:30:52.915 --> 00:30:57.365 Because talking to the, the, the crews, uh, on site, 720 00:30:57.875 --> 00:31:01.725 they want do this ridiculous line at a diagonal across the 721 00:31:01.725 --> 00:31:03.285 front of my lawn with front. 722 00:31:03.285 --> 00:31:06.005 They pla they place it where we tell them to place it. Yeah. 723 00:31:06.065 --> 00:31:08.485 Simple as that. And if, if they would follow 724 00:31:09.465 --> 00:31:13.045 and if we, if we did decide to do that line, this works. 725 00:31:13.685 --> 00:31:15.885 I understand that. But I would like to meet with them 726 00:31:15.945 --> 00:31:17.765 and get an assurance on the job. 727 00:31:17.875 --> 00:31:20.605 Like, okay, um, this is my interpretation, 728 00:31:20.875 --> 00:31:22.485 this is here and this is here. 729 00:31:22.745 --> 00:31:24.285 And if that's where the ground cover's 730 00:31:24.285 --> 00:31:25.565 going, boy, we're happy. 731 00:31:26.215 --> 00:31:28.885 We're happy. All right. 732 00:31:28.905 --> 00:31:33.125 My recommendation, my suggestion would be if you, 733 00:31:33.125 --> 00:31:35.005 if you're willing to go out there Yes sir. 734 00:31:35.345 --> 00:31:38.405 Sit down, take a look at the line, come 735 00:31:38.405 --> 00:31:39.765 to a reasonable conclusion. 736 00:31:40.005 --> 00:31:41.205 I don't want any confrontation. 737 00:31:41.225 --> 00:31:42.485 If we hear that, it's gonna end 738 00:31:42.485 --> 00:31:44.205 immediately that I won't tolerate. 739 00:31:44.795 --> 00:31:47.245 Okay. And if you, any profanity is used, 740 00:31:47.245 --> 00:31:48.445 it'll stop at that point too. 741 00:31:49.125 --> 00:31:51.485 I know you, you're passionate, man.
