Anybody want to address the board before we begin? 8 00:00:44.670 --> 00:00:44.911 Okay. 9 00:00:50.370 --> 00:00:54.090 Then we'll move on to new business, the approval of minutes of the September 10 00:00:54.151 --> 00:00:58.981 meeting. I presume everybody's aware of them. Do we have a motion? 11 00:00:59.940 --> 00:01:02.401 Mr. Chairman, I make a motion to approve as written. 12 00:01:03.690 --> 00:01:04.350 And second? 13 00:01:04.981 --> 00:01:05.760 I'll second that. 14 00:01:06.240 --> 00:01:07.560 Is there any discussion on the matter? 15 00:01:08.551 --> 00:01:09.301 I'll second that. 16 00:01:10.140 --> 00:01:12.301 Okay. Any discussion on the motion on the floor? 17 00:01:13.230 --> 00:01:13.230 No. 18 00:01:13.230 --> 00:01:15.150 Okay. Those in favor? 19 00:01:15.720 --> 00:01:16.290 Aye. 20 00:01:16.350 --> 00:01:20.430 Against? Okay, moving right along. We will go to public hearings. 21 00:01:20.490 --> 00:01:24.150 We'll do adoption of Resolution 2027-01. 22 00:01:24.690 --> 00:01:29.970 It's imposing a special assessment for the Series 2026 project. 23 00:01:30.211 --> 00:01:31.500 These are the new 24 00:01:32.880 --> 00:01:35.640 villas in the area known as Shanty Creek. 25 00:01:36.391 --> 00:01:38.189 Yes. Good morning, board members. 26 00:01:39.060 --> 00:01:43.290 This is a public hearing to formally adopt resolution number 27 00:01:43.500 --> 00:01:49.080 2027-01. And for the record, this resolution makes the final 28 00:01:49.141 --> 00:01:54.810 findings and imposing of the special assessments for the Series 2026 project, for, 29 00:01:55.351 --> 00:01:59.220 excuse me, approving the final engineer's report, final assessment methodology 30 00:01:59.280 --> 00:02:01.771 report, and the final assessment roll. 31 00:02:02.160 --> 00:02:06.000 This also confirms the special benefit and fair apportionment, providing for the 32 00:02:06.060 --> 00:02:10.711 assessment lien, authorizing collection, recording, acquisition, reimbursement, and 33 00:02:10.771 --> 00:02:14.340 implementation actions, and providing for an effective date. 34 00:02:15.360 --> 00:02:18.840 So the supporting documentation to this resolution 35 00:02:20.490 --> 00:02:26.400 includes the final assessment report, the final engineer's report, and 36 00:02:26.490 --> 00:02:29.820 the assessment roll for this phase. 37 00:02:30.660 --> 00:02:31.950 Just to note that the 38 00:02:33.720 --> 00:02:35.880 final assessment report was updated. 39 00:02:35.970 --> 00:02:39.540 Initially, the estimated issuance cost 40 00:02:40.830 --> 00:02:46.260 was $1.5 million, and it is, for the record, $1.475... 41 00:02:48.601 --> 00:02:53.851 Excuse me, and with an interest rate of 5.25%. So Mr. 42 00:02:53.910 --> 00:02:59.250 Plunsler is here in the audience today with PFM, if you have additional questions 43 00:02:59.310 --> 00:03:04.710 pertaining to the assessment report and methodology that supports this resolution. 44 00:03:06.480 --> 00:03:11.700 Okay. And this has no area-wide impact on District Nine, this is just for Shanty 45 00:03:11.790 --> 00:03:12.120 Creek? 46 00:03:12.781 --> 00:03:13.740 That is correct. 47 00:03:16.230 --> 00:03:17.250 Are there any questions? 48 00:03:19.050 --> 00:03:19.860 On this report? 49 00:03:21.090 --> 00:03:21.360 Yes. 50 00:03:21.451 --> 00:03:21.781 Yeah. 51 00:03:23.430 --> 00:03:25.171 Just a couple clarifications for me. 52 00:03:26.370 --> 00:03:27.720 This says that 53 00:03:32.130 --> 00:03:37.980 the district is in Sumter County, Florida, entirely within the city limits of the 54 00:03:38.041 --> 00:03:42.060 city of Wildwood. That's not correct. The district is not, is it? 55 00:03:42.541 --> 00:03:43.650 No, the district is not. 56 00:03:44.701 --> 00:03:45.660 Just this area. 57 00:03:45.750 --> 00:03:48.570 Yeah, I know that, but this report says the whole district is 58 00:03:49.951 --> 00:03:53.250 on page 22, page 1.2. 59 00:03:55.291 --> 00:03:57.090 For the record, this is Kevin Plunsler with PFM. 60 00:03:57.210 --> 00:04:02.101 To the extent that we need to modify that to say this area specific to the district 61 00:04:02.220 --> 00:04:06.330 is within the city, we can make that adjustment if that would be at the board's 62 00:04:07.680 --> 00:04:12.240 direction. But we certainly understand the nature of the location of the legal 63 00:04:12.270 --> 00:04:16.890 description of where the assessments would be placed once platted, so we can make 64 00:04:16.921 --> 00:04:18.031 that adjustment as needed. 65 00:04:20.310 --> 00:04:23.160 If I didn't read it wrong, I guess that's the question I'm asking. 66 00:04:23.580 --> 00:04:27.180 Yeah, if it's stating that the whole district is in the city, then yeah, if we want 67 00:04:27.180 --> 00:04:29.310 to make that adjustment to the specific area, that's fine. 68 00:04:30.570 --> 00:04:31.380 Table two. 69 00:04:34.320 --> 00:04:38.550 I'm sorry, I'm a lender. When there's a chart with numbers on it and lines, it 70 00:04:38.610 --> 00:04:43.830 means something totals. I can't figure out where the 145 comes from on the bottom 71 00:04:43.890 --> 00:04:46.410 of the net benefit per acre. 72 00:04:48.000 --> 00:04:50.820 Yeah, the net benefit should be the delta. 73 00:04:51.600 --> 00:04:55.890 And I can't see the chart there in front of me. 74 00:04:57.841 --> 00:05:01.951 Yeah, the net benefit would be the calculation of 75 00:05:03.570 --> 00:05:04.290 two... 76 00:05:09.060 --> 00:05:13.020 It should be the delta between the estimated value of the finished lot for land per 77 00:05:13.110 --> 00:05:16.110 acre less the total cost of land improved per acre. 78 00:05:16.410 --> 00:05:21.420 So that should be the net delta there. If it's not calculating, it should be. 79 00:05:21.600 --> 00:05:25.740 Well, listen, the estimated value of finished home and lot, shouldn't it include 80 00:05:25.800 --> 00:05:27.270 the 74,000, couldn't it? 81 00:05:29.790 --> 00:05:32.310 That is the value of the lot. 82 00:05:33.570 --> 00:05:35.580 Could you repeat? Sorry, say that question again. 83 00:05:35.610 --> 00:05:40.500 Well, the first line says the estimated value of furnished home and lot is 400,000. 84 00:05:41.160 --> 00:05:43.440 And I'm assuming that's going to be the future sale price. 85 00:05:44.010 --> 00:05:44.760 Correct. Yep. 86 00:05:45.240 --> 00:05:49.320 So you wouldn't add the 75,000 or 74,000 to that because that's already in the lot. 87 00:05:49.860 --> 00:05:53.400 Right. Well, the value of the lot is 74. Okay. 88 00:05:56.341 --> 00:06:00.091 We're calculating the estimated value of the finished home and lot package, and 89 00:06:00.120 --> 00:06:01.260 that's the 400,000. 90 00:06:01.320 --> 00:06:01.470 Right. 91 00:06:02.070 --> 00:06:05.190 Yes. Or were you saying something different? I apologize. 92 00:06:05.310 --> 00:06:10.050 I agree. I understand that. But then you add, if this is a column, you're adding 93 00:06:10.290 --> 00:06:16.110 74,000 to it, which is an additional 74,000 to the number above it then. 94 00:06:18.300 --> 00:06:20.730 No, we're not adding to that. 95 00:06:22.320 --> 00:06:27.811 Well, then that's why I tried to calculate this 145 seven times, different ways, 96 00:06:27.841 --> 00:06:29.040 and I could never get to it. 97 00:06:30.061 --> 00:06:30.930 Okay. Yeah, because the 98 00:06:32.279 --> 00:06:36.451 145 should be the delta between 342 and the 190, I believe 99 00:06:37.980 --> 00:06:42.240 196 above, could be the delta between those two. 100 00:06:43.350 --> 00:06:45.510 Let me find my pencil number here. 101 00:06:50.040 --> 00:06:53.490 Yes, that is the difference between the two, the 145, 875. 102 00:06:53.790 --> 00:06:59.760 Yep. So the intent is to show that the value of the installed infrastructure 103 00:06:59.760 --> 00:07:04.230 is creating additional value, that there's a benefit to the property overall. 104 00:07:04.290 --> 00:07:09.030 And that is just a calculation of looking at the estimated value of the finished 105 00:07:09.091 --> 00:07:13.980 lot, land per acre, the 342, less the total cost of the improved land per acre 106 00:07:14.040 --> 00:07:16.680 above to get to the net number of 145. 107 00:07:17.070 --> 00:07:21.870 It's just another calculation to make sure that we're not getting into a negative 108 00:07:21.930 --> 00:07:25.290 number, that number being a negative at the end of the day, and that there's no 109 00:07:25.320 --> 00:07:26.190 benefit received. 110 00:07:26.280 --> 00:07:28.380 All I was trying to do was calculate the numbers to be sure. 111 00:07:28.470 --> 00:07:29.760 You had the right number there. That's all. 112 00:07:30.030 --> 00:07:30.270 Okay. 113 00:07:30.360 --> 00:07:31.530 I understand it's X, but- 114 00:07:31.860 --> 00:07:32.040 Yeah. 115 00:07:32.850 --> 00:07:35.220 I couldn't get to it, the way I could calculate it. 116 00:07:36.930 --> 00:07:37.350 I think 117 00:07:40.530 --> 00:07:41.670 that's all I had on this one. 118 00:07:45.000 --> 00:07:47.701 Can we open public hearing? 119 00:07:47.730 --> 00:07:51.901 Yes, now would be the appropriate time, if there's no further questions, to open 120 00:07:51.930 --> 00:07:52.800 the public hearing. 121 00:07:53.190 --> 00:07:55.591 Oh, sorry. On this? 122 00:07:56.010 --> 00:07:56.311 Yes. 123 00:07:57.151 --> 00:07:57.480 On this. 124 00:07:58.440 --> 00:07:59.670 Well, on the entire- 125 00:08:00.030 --> 00:08:01.470 I had questions on this report too. 126 00:08:02.490 --> 00:08:02.880 Okay. 127 00:08:06.480 --> 00:08:09.210 To complete discussion, we'll open the public hearing on this. 128 00:08:09.901 --> 00:08:11.970 I think we've had the overview at this point. 129 00:08:15.390 --> 00:08:17.220 More questions? 130 00:08:20.100 --> 00:08:24.331 Well, we'll see. I had to print this off. I couldn't follow the numbers earlier. 131 00:08:25.710 --> 00:08:28.020 So on the CFB report, 132 00:08:30.390 --> 00:08:36.181 it talks about the villages of Southern Oaks on Schedule B, on Exhibit 133 00:08:36.270 --> 00:08:37.951 B, and I don't find it on Exhibit B. 134 00:08:41.940 --> 00:08:45.510 So I don't know where Southern Oaks is into this. Is that south of it? 135 00:08:46.110 --> 00:08:46.830 Way south, right? 136 00:08:52.950 --> 00:08:56.670 You look at Exhibit B, there's a box on the bottom that says Village of Southern 137 00:08:56.760 --> 00:08:59.401 Oaks, which should be highlighted in that gray, 138 00:09:00.720 --> 00:09:01.530 and I can't find it 139 00:09:03.486 --> 00:09:04.116 On the chart. 140 00:09:05.826 --> 00:09:06.636 What page are you on? 141 00:09:06.966 --> 00:09:08.016 I'm on, well, 142 00:09:09.786 --> 00:09:14.586 I don't know. 50. Exhibit B, 51 of... I printed the whole thing off. 143 00:09:24.277 --> 00:09:30.007 So Exhibit B calls out in the top right-hand corner the addition to 144 00:09:30.066 --> 00:09:32.706 District 9, which would be known as Shanty Creek. 145 00:09:33.246 --> 00:09:33.516 Right. 146 00:09:39.636 --> 00:09:45.336 And this is going to be located within the villages of Southern Oaks Development 147 00:09:45.396 --> 00:09:48.066 Order. So that is the correct reference. 148 00:09:52.986 --> 00:09:55.986 I don't understand this. Oh, off the village. Okay. 149 00:09:56.046 --> 00:09:56.316 Yes. 150 00:09:57.696 --> 00:10:00.816 But is that the shaded part that I'm supposed to be working off there? 151 00:10:06.246 --> 00:10:07.716 I'm making a big deal of this, aren't I? 152 00:10:09.966 --> 00:10:12.306 So the clerk's office has the exhibit pulled up. 153 00:10:14.257 --> 00:10:14.646 To what? 154 00:10:15.876 --> 00:10:17.046 And that is exhibit- 155 00:10:18.216 --> 00:10:18.666 Two. I see. 156 00:10:18.726 --> 00:10:20.257 We need to go back one to B. 157 00:10:28.296 --> 00:10:34.056 And that does include within the stretch between State Road 44 and County Road 44A 158 00:10:34.507 --> 00:10:36.007 is the Shanty Creek addition. 159 00:10:38.556 --> 00:10:38.736 Yes. 160 00:10:45.906 --> 00:10:47.706 If you look on the bottom left-hand side of 161 00:10:49.986 --> 00:10:54.816 the legend, the very bottom left is the shaded area that is the 162 00:10:54.846 --> 00:10:57.126 Villages Southern Oaks. 163 00:11:00.576 --> 00:11:02.226 Yes, that is the Shanty Creek portion. 164 00:11:02.496 --> 00:11:06.576 I know it's hard to tell from this, but it's got a solid box around it. 165 00:11:07.956 --> 00:11:08.196 Well, 166 00:11:09.576 --> 00:11:11.196 I'm talking about inside the box. 167 00:11:12.606 --> 00:11:12.876 That's what- 168 00:11:13.386 --> 00:11:13.507 Yeah, 169 00:11:15.426 --> 00:11:18.757 the District 9 boundary is the hashed lines that go through it. 170 00:11:19.266 --> 00:11:23.616 The Villages of Southern Oaks just shows a solid center. 171 00:11:24.277 --> 00:11:26.346 There's not depicted on this map. 172 00:11:31.027 --> 00:11:33.816 You guys are pointing at. 173 00:11:33.816 --> 00:11:35.527 Mind if you take a look at the computer here? 174 00:11:36.546 --> 00:11:36.757 Sure. 175 00:11:43.056 --> 00:11:46.866 See, he's referencing that. These are all 176 00:11:48.126 --> 00:11:49.386 the hashed marks. 177 00:11:50.676 --> 00:11:51.396 Right, it is. 178 00:11:53.046 --> 00:11:53.466 This one. 179 00:11:53.556 --> 00:11:54.786 Okay, that's hashed also- 180 00:11:54.876 --> 00:11:54.996 Yes 181 00:11:54.996 --> 00:11:56.196 ... is the problem. Okay. 182 00:11:57.816 --> 00:11:58.086 Yes. 183 00:11:59.736 --> 00:12:03.277 But in the legend, it doesn't show hashed lines on it, which may be confusing. 184 00:12:04.596 --> 00:12:05.076 I see. 185 00:12:05.257 --> 00:12:07.536 I knew that, but I didn't see this is what this is. 186 00:12:11.496 --> 00:12:13.236 It's got two sets of lines on it then, right? 187 00:12:13.896 --> 00:12:14.856 Don't believe your eyes. 188 00:12:16.626 --> 00:12:22.446 Okay. All right. Let's see. I think that 189 00:12:22.507 --> 00:12:27.757 may be the biggest role on my end. I'm trying to understand there on that one, but 190 00:12:31.056 --> 00:12:31.956 yeah.

Chairman, to execute the order of enforcement, and I'm here to 281 00:18:42.270 --> 00:18:44.250 answer any questions that you may have. 282 00:18:46.080 --> 00:18:48.990 Shannon, when did you have the discussion with them that it was going to be a 283 00:18:49.051 --> 00:18:49.830 couple of weeks? 284 00:18:50.790 --> 00:18:51.510 With Hapro. 285 00:18:51.840 --> 00:18:52.290 Yeah. 286 00:18:52.380 --> 00:18:53.490 Is Hapro and the 287 00:18:55.320 --> 00:18:58.230 other developer closely related? 288 00:19:00.600 --> 00:19:02.640 They are related in some way, yes. 289 00:19:05.340 --> 00:19:05.430 Yeah. 290 00:19:05.490 --> 00:19:10.861 He was here in August of '24. He's on it, he had his 291 00:19:10.950 --> 00:19:16.290 permits, he was moving forward, when in fact, he'd never even applied for permits. 292 00:19:20.070 --> 00:19:21.990 I just don't trust anything they say. 293 00:19:22.320 --> 00:19:25.500 And the people in that neighborhood have been put through hell with this. 294 00:19:28.051 --> 00:19:28.590 We can do? 295 00:19:31.890 --> 00:19:37.170 There is litigation regarding that property in regards to the InvestWorks, 296 00:19:39.030 --> 00:19:42.270 when the property was owned by that company. 297 00:19:43.020 --> 00:19:47.100 So we have forwarded this homeowner, or excuse me, yeah, this gentleman, Mr. 298 00:19:47.190 --> 00:19:52.530 Ludlow, he has stated that he was unaware of anything outstanding with InvestWorks, 299 00:19:52.770 --> 00:19:54.301 and he was not aware of any of that. 300 00:19:56.611 --> 00:19:58.770 So, we have forwarded that 301 00:20:00.150 --> 00:20:03.540 email communication to Mr. Briones to reach out. 302 00:20:03.600 --> 00:20:05.100 Well, I have a question for counsel, 303 00:20:06.780 --> 00:20:07.320 if you will. 304 00:20:11.611 --> 00:20:12.480 This new entity 305 00:20:14.730 --> 00:20:18.121 acquired the property in June of last year, '25. 306 00:20:20.700 --> 00:20:21.960 Well over a year ago and 307 00:20:24.121 --> 00:20:25.920 did nothing for months and months and months. 308 00:20:27.720 --> 00:20:32.430 Why cannot now we at this point consider this to be a recurring violation 309 00:20:33.570 --> 00:20:34.650 based upon what happened 310 00:20:36.180 --> 00:20:36.720 previously? 311 00:20:37.621 --> 00:20:41.160 I suspect the new property owner would have to be given a reasonable time to bring 312 00:20:41.190 --> 00:20:44.280 the property into violation. I'm not privy to the background. 313 00:20:44.371 --> 00:20:48.121 If the property ownership changes, you have to give the new property owner a 314 00:20:48.180 --> 00:20:50.640 reasonable time to bring the property into compliance. 315 00:20:53.790 --> 00:20:55.111 What options do we have, 316 00:20:57.000 --> 00:21:01.740 given the fact that it's a new entity, and even though it's a year later, more than 317 00:21:01.801 --> 00:21:05.220 a year later since they acquired it, what options do we have 318 00:21:06.570 --> 00:21:09.240 other than giving him 30 days from today? 319 00:21:13.560 --> 00:21:15.660 That is something I would have to talk to Mr. Briones about. 320 00:21:15.749 --> 00:21:18.660 I know if it was in litigation, we have certain things that we could do. 321 00:21:18.690 --> 00:21:23.280 We could file an order to show cause or ask them into court to make them show the 322 00:21:23.371 --> 00:21:26.250 court, as well as the board, the district, why they haven't brought the property 323 00:21:26.280 --> 00:21:30.720 into compliance. This isn't an active case in litigation to my understanding, so I 324 00:21:30.750 --> 00:21:34.801 would have to defer to the parameters of your governing documents. 325 00:21:34.830 --> 00:21:37.621 If Mark wanted to handle it differently, I would need to discuss that with Mr. 326 00:21:37.650 --> 00:21:39.150 Briones. I do apologize. 327 00:21:39.570 --> 00:21:41.400 No, I understand. But my suggestion is, 328 00:21:42.871 --> 00:21:47.310 and I think the board is well aware of my position on this, we need to do whatever 329 00:21:47.371 --> 00:21:51.240 we can legally to get this thing taken care of as soon as possible. 330 00:21:51.570 --> 00:21:53.790 And if it means getting around this 30-day 331 00:21:55.440 --> 00:21:59.400 provision now somehow, we need to do something about this. 332 00:21:59.670 --> 00:22:03.930 Yeah, and I was just sending Mr. Briones a message about this property, and I'll 333 00:22:03.990 --> 00:22:07.710 have him follow up with the board about this property to see what exactly can be 334 00:22:07.770 --> 00:22:08.100 done. 335 00:22:08.760 --> 00:22:13.890 And Mr. Chairman, the board does have the ability to shorten the amount of time to 336 00:22:13.920 --> 00:22:18.510 come into compliance. And what that would do is it would potentially, they would 337 00:22:18.540 --> 00:22:24.390 start incurring fines quicker if they did not come into compliance within the 338 00:22:24.450 --> 00:22:29.310 timeframe given. But you do have to put on record your justification for doing 339 00:22:29.371 --> 00:22:29.580 that. 340 00:22:30.240 --> 00:22:33.690 Well, I think there's plenty of justification based upon all of our prior actions. 341 00:22:33.750 --> 00:22:33.871 So 342 00:22:35.190 --> 00:22:36.150 I'm going to move that we- 343 00:22:36.900 --> 00:22:39.180 Oh, Mr. Chairman, before we do a motion- 344 00:22:39.240 --> 00:22:40.590 We did. I thought the- 345 00:22:40.650 --> 00:22:43.770 No, we're just presenting evidence. The next step is to open the public hearing. 346 00:22:43.920 --> 00:22:45.420 Sorry. Can I get a clarification? 347 00:22:45.960 --> 00:22:46.380 Yeah. 348 00:22:46.470 --> 00:22:50.310 The last three pictures that are in this that were taken on 9 or 10/5, 349 00:22:51.540 --> 00:22:52.020 it appears that 350 00:22:54.630 --> 00:22:58.200 the correction of the pictures from before, they're fixed. 351 00:22:58.950 --> 00:23:00.480 So what's still out of compliance? 352 00:23:00.810 --> 00:23:01.920 They're somewhat fixed. 353 00:23:02.220 --> 00:23:02.760 Okay. 354 00:23:03.060 --> 00:23:07.200 They have what looks like stucco now around the windows and whatnot, but it's still 355 00:23:07.260 --> 00:23:10.650 not painted, and you can still see the marks of stucco around the window. 356 00:23:11.040 --> 00:23:11.040 Okay. 357 00:23:11.100 --> 00:23:14.670 So they have done some of the stucco work around the windows that they had not 358 00:23:14.700 --> 00:23:16.861 previously done, but it's still just not- 359 00:23:17.100 --> 00:23:17.371 Okay 360 00:23:17.670 --> 00:23:18.240 ... there yet. 361 00:23:19.410 --> 00:23:20.250 All right. Thank you. 362 00:23:20.280 --> 00:23:23.100 Well, and one other question before we proceed with the public hearing. 363 00:23:23.970 --> 00:23:24.810 Am I correct that 364 00:23:27.540 --> 00:23:28.410 the district or 365 00:23:30.600 --> 00:23:32.130 the Villages is maintaining 366 00:23:33.420 --> 00:23:34.350 the property, the land? 367 00:23:36.660 --> 00:23:40.260 I would have to check. I know we have taken it to public hearing previously 368 00:23:40.350 --> 00:23:43.440 regarding the yard. I would have to check. 369 00:23:44.611 --> 00:23:48.450 Well, I thought that it was either last month or the month before. 370 00:23:48.660 --> 00:23:49.590 I think it was last month. 371 00:23:51.210 --> 00:23:56.010 It was indicated that at this point we were taking care of it, and they were being 372 00:23:56.460 --> 00:23:58.140 fined $250 a month. 373 00:24:00.121 --> 00:24:01.470 Then yes, if that's the case- 374 00:24:01.500 --> 00:24:01.530 To maintain it 375 00:24:01.560 --> 00:24:02.611 ... I would have to just look at that. 376 00:24:02.640 --> 00:24:03.121 I'd have to just- 377 00:24:03.150 --> 00:24:03.150 Okay 378 00:24:03.150 --> 00:24:05.400 ... defer to my paperwork and take a look- 379 00:24:05.640 --> 00:24:05.970 Thank you 380 00:24:06.000 --> 00:24:06.930 ... regarding the lawn. 381 00:24:11.940 --> 00:24:15.690 Yeah, we did say last week that fines would be instant. 382 00:24:16.051 --> 00:24:17.850 I believe it was like 24 hours or- 383 00:24:17.910 --> 00:24:18.030 Yes 384 00:24:18.180 --> 00:24:19.861 ... whatnot that was provided. Yeah. 385 00:24:19.890 --> 00:24:21.960 And I don't think they did anything in 24 hours. 386 00:24:22.111 --> 00:24:25.830 And are we providing the lawn service on a regular basis? 387 00:24:26.551 --> 00:24:30.420 Yes. Once we go ahead and when a property is not brought into compliance, when we 388 00:24:30.479 --> 00:24:32.490 follow up after the order of enforcement, 389 00:24:33.720 --> 00:24:36.750 staff are trying to see if it needs to be maintained. 390 00:24:37.890 --> 00:24:38.130 Okay. 391 00:24:39.150 --> 00:24:43.560 Looking at exhibit D2, it looks like it's been longer than two weeks. 392 00:24:48.990 --> 00:24:50.760 Scroll down to the bottom of D2. 393 00:24:52.950 --> 00:24:57.150 Can't see it quite so well on that computer, but the weeds look to be 394 00:24:59.160 --> 00:25:00.990 8 to 12 inches tall there. 395 00:25:06.450 --> 00:25:09.570 Yeah, I can take a look and see when the last time we maintained the property was. 396 00:25:10.230 --> 00:25:10.830 Yeah.

State your address. 415 00:26:15.540 --> 00:26:18.210 Oh, 3293 Syonwood Avenue. 416 00:26:18.270 --> 00:26:18.510 Thank you. 417 00:26:18.540 --> 00:26:19.170 The Villages. 418 00:26:20.400 --> 00:26:24.540 Couple of things. It's amazing that we're going to be going on three years in 419 00:26:24.601 --> 00:26:25.200 December. 420 00:26:26.940 --> 00:26:30.780 And that picture of the frame they didn't paint when they painted the rest of the 421 00:26:30.840 --> 00:26:34.500 house, there was a board over it, so it never got painted. 422 00:26:35.130 --> 00:26:38.821 So that's not work they're trying to do, that's work they're leaving behind. 423 00:26:40.650 --> 00:26:42.510 I know you guys have been working on it. 424 00:26:42.991 --> 00:26:46.710 I know I've just had personal visits from some of the board members. 425 00:26:47.280 --> 00:26:51.510 I wonder how many of you board members have actually gone by and seen the house 426 00:26:51.571 --> 00:26:52.920 when it was bad at first. 427 00:26:54.120 --> 00:26:56.940 I have, even recently. I was biting, actually doing the- 428 00:26:58.080 --> 00:26:58.590 You know, it's- 429 00:26:59.551 --> 00:26:59.611 Yeah. 430 00:26:59.670 --> 00:27:01.051 If you don't see it every day- 431 00:27:01.111 --> 00:27:01.260 Exactly 432 00:27:01.290 --> 00:27:06.241 ... it's easy to let it go. And it seems like when they switch owners, then we're 433 00:27:06.301 --> 00:27:09.660 back at square one, giving them so many days to do something. 434 00:27:10.321 --> 00:27:14.880 And from what I understand, there is also evidence that these owners are somehow 435 00:27:14.970 --> 00:27:15.780 intertwined 436 00:27:16.932 --> 00:27:20.802 Are they gonna do this again, change owners again, and try to get another year on 437 00:27:20.862 --> 00:27:20.982 it? 438 00:27:23.322 --> 00:27:28.152 I know there's laws and things you have to file, but 439 00:27:29.682 --> 00:27:30.582 it's really sad. 440 00:27:30.643 --> 00:27:32.382 You have a valid question, but 441 00:27:34.332 --> 00:27:39.822 our normal attorney has been working on that, and because he's not here, I cannot 442 00:27:39.912 --> 00:27:40.482 answer that. 443 00:27:40.813 --> 00:27:40.962 Yeah. 444 00:27:42.102 --> 00:27:44.862 And Mr. Chairman, for the purpose of this public hearing, 445 00:27:46.242 --> 00:27:51.643 there is other ongoing litigation, but to keep that separate from the public 446 00:27:51.672 --> 00:27:55.662 hearing and the facts and evidence presented during today's case. 447 00:27:57.042 --> 00:27:59.862 And that's all I really have to say. Thank you. 448 00:28:01.482 --> 00:28:02.953 Thank you for your patience, 449 00:28:04.842 --> 00:28:06.643 as much as it may be strained. 450 00:28:10.092 --> 00:28:12.882 Anybody else here to come forward? Okay. 451 00:28:13.692 --> 00:28:18.372 Shannon, thank you for your presentation, as we will close the public hearing now. 452 00:28:21.882 --> 00:28:23.172 Any discussion on the board? 453 00:28:23.263 --> 00:28:25.542 Well, I would like to move that we 454 00:28:27.072 --> 00:28:28.422 change the, excuse me, 455 00:28:30.552 --> 00:28:31.122 30 days 456 00:28:32.652 --> 00:28:33.372 to 10 days. 457 00:28:35.263 --> 00:28:41.052 And then within the 10-day period, then we can start hitting them with 458 00:28:41.232 --> 00:28:42.042 heavy fines. 459 00:28:48.102 --> 00:28:48.822 Motion to 460 00:28:50.382 --> 00:28:51.313 reduce the 461 00:28:52.872 --> 00:28:56.682 fine window from 30 days to 10 days. I would second that. 462 00:28:58.063 --> 00:28:59.112 Discussion by the board? 463 00:29:00.792 --> 00:29:04.002 If we follow last month's minutes, we did a... 464 00:29:05.592 --> 00:29:09.102 I don't want to ruin all, if there's a motion made by Mr. 465 00:29:09.192 --> 00:29:10.122 Hallberg, but- 466 00:29:12.013 --> 00:29:13.393 For 24 hours on the lawn 467 00:29:14.112 --> 00:29:14.232 Yeah. 468 00:29:15.013 --> 00:29:16.662 Within seven days and there's... 469 00:29:16.692 --> 00:29:18.342 Sorry, that was 470 00:29:20.082 --> 00:29:20.322 for the 471 00:29:21.703 --> 00:29:23.232 landscaping on the property. 472 00:29:23.322 --> 00:29:23.533 Okay. 473 00:29:24.013 --> 00:29:24.132 This 474 00:29:25.362 --> 00:29:27.283 today relates to the structure itself. 475 00:29:27.372 --> 00:29:28.182 Okay. All right. 476 00:29:28.842 --> 00:29:37.602 Excuse 477 00:29:37.602 --> 00:29:37.632 me. 478 00:29:37.752 --> 00:29:39.072 I would like to see the house again. 479 00:29:39.162 --> 00:29:43.902 Well, I have got an engineering report on this as to where they stand, because at 480 00:29:43.992 --> 00:29:49.722 one point there was a window that was still boarded up, and the last time we saw 481 00:29:49.783 --> 00:29:51.763 pictures, there was no electric meter. 482 00:29:55.242 --> 00:29:55.783 No, what I'm saying, 483 00:29:57.912 --> 00:30:02.652 give them 10 days, and then if it's not done, then more fines. 484 00:30:05.772 --> 00:30:10.063 That motion is up.

We'll go to 10 days on them, and to notice- 488 00:30:18.252 --> 00:30:22.182 There had to be an accompanying statement of why? 489 00:30:24.222 --> 00:30:28.002 Through the course of your discussion, that was the justification based on the 490 00:30:28.092 --> 00:30:30.192 evidence and testimony provided to move forward with the- 491 00:30:30.252 --> 00:30:33.703 Okay. I didn't know whether we had to develop a statement, but that's... Okay. 492 00:30:33.792 --> 00:30:34.212 Thank you. 493 00:30:38.652 --> 00:30:41.232 Can we close the public hearing? We've had our discussion. 494 00:30:42.402 --> 00:30:43.872 I think that matter's done. 495 00:30:44.143 --> 00:30:48.703 Thank you, board. And just for your update, two days after that picture, the 496 00:30:48.732 --> 00:30:49.662 property was maintained. 497 00:30:50.203 --> 00:30:51.462 Thank you. The property was what? 498 00:30:51.703 --> 00:30:52.272 Maintained. 499 00:30:52.332 --> 00:30:53.263 Oh, grass cut. 500 00:30:53.592 --> 00:30:53.772 Yes. 501 00:30:54.252 --> 00:30:55.722 By the district. 502 00:30:55.783 --> 00:30:56.712 Yes, by the district. 503 00:31:00.102 --> 00:31:03.643 Status on old business. Let me get out of here. 504 00:31:14.203 --> 00:31:14.203 Yes. 505 00:31:14.772 --> 00:31:15.942 Sorry, welcome back up. 506 00:31:16.542 --> 00:31:21.013 Two items on old business are the Salwood property. Mr. 507 00:31:21.222 --> 00:31:26.052 Brandes will be able to give you an update individually on the proceedings of that 508 00:31:26.112 --> 00:31:26.472 case. 509 00:31:27.792 --> 00:31:31.662 And then the second item was to confirm the length of the multimodal paths and 510 00:31:31.722 --> 00:31:34.393 determine if the contractor would approve one mobilization fee. 511 00:31:37.242 --> 00:31:42.162 The length of the multimodal paths is included as the 19,866 linear feet, 512 00:31:43.962 --> 00:31:49.393 7,462 on Buena Vista stretch, and the 12,414 on 513 00:31:50.052 --> 00:31:50.953 Morse Boulevard. 514 00:31:53.292 --> 00:31:57.313 That's the gross, right? Because a lot of it is already marked. 515 00:31:59.172 --> 00:32:01.393 No, this is the portion that would be 516 00:32:03.042 --> 00:32:04.842 within the quotes to proceed. 517 00:32:06.402 --> 00:32:06.432 Yes. 518 00:32:06.492 --> 00:32:09.672 Okay. But the question is, 519 00:32:11.082 --> 00:32:12.582 is that inclusive of what's- 520 00:32:12.643 --> 00:32:17.802 Linear feet of where the RPMs need to be placed on the paths that are under 521 00:32:17.832 --> 00:32:18.763 District 9 ownership. 522 00:32:19.033 --> 00:32:21.492 Okay. So there's no markers in any of this? 523 00:32:22.272 --> 00:32:25.902 No, not accounted for within these calculations. 524 00:32:26.352 --> 00:32:26.533 Okay. 525 00:32:26.563 --> 00:32:28.872 And then based on the contract for 526 00:32:30.402 --> 00:32:35.022 the contractor that would do this work, they are two distinct project locations, so 527 00:32:35.052 --> 00:32:37.482 the mobilization fee has been accounted for twice. 528 00:32:39.462 --> 00:32:42.672 And I still don't understand the explanation as to why it's two. 529 00:32:45.582 --> 00:32:50.772 Essentially, the mobilization is the hauling in of equipment and setting up the job 530 00:32:50.862 --> 00:32:53.382 site and any MOT that's needed, and 531 00:32:55.002 --> 00:32:58.872 there's a stretch on Buena Vista, and then they consider it a separate project for 532 00:32:58.992 --> 00:33:04.422 the stretch on Morse. So they're having to reload everything up, move everything 533 00:33:04.542 --> 00:33:08.112 over, do all their MOT and everything on a different segment. 534 00:33:11.533 --> 00:33:16.783 Did it go out for bid as two projects, or did the contractor just make that two 535 00:33:16.872 --> 00:33:17.442 projects? 536 00:33:17.533 --> 00:33:20.203 No, this is a contractor that's already under contract. 537 00:33:20.322 --> 00:33:20.742 Okay. 538 00:33:20.802 --> 00:33:25.842 And these are the terms and conditions with what every board has agreed to for 539 00:33:25.902 --> 00:33:26.802 their services. 540 00:33:27.582 --> 00:33:32.862 Oh, understand. But when you went to the contractor, you said, "I want you to do 541 00:33:32.953 --> 00:33:38.533 this," did that contractor make the decision to make it two projects, or did you go 542 00:33:38.622 --> 00:33:41.412 to them saying, "We want you to do these two projects?" 543 00:33:46.393 --> 00:33:47.622 Mr. Wiley, do you want to address that? 544 00:33:55.393 --> 00:33:55.422 Sure. 545 00:33:55.513 --> 00:33:57.522 Good morning. Herschel Wiley, district property management. 546 00:33:59.082 --> 00:34:02.172 The infrastructure division took this project to them, and it was determined that 547 00:34:02.203 --> 00:34:04.572 it was two separate areas because, like Mrs. 548 00:34:04.722 --> 00:34:08.352 Wilson said, it's two separate locations up at each location. 549 00:34:08.412 --> 00:34:12.402 So this is in their contract, and they are allowed to charge the mobilization fee 550 00:34:12.462 --> 00:34:13.873 if that helps clear it up. 551 00:34:14.322 --> 00:34:16.453 Well, it almost does. 552 00:34:17.922 --> 00:34:22.842 If I go out and say, "I want you to do this project," and you give the scope, it's 553 00:34:22.902 --> 00:34:24.102 at two roads. 554 00:34:24.222 --> 00:34:24.493 Right. 555 00:34:25.152 --> 00:34:28.812 That's one thing. But if you say, "I got two projects for you, this road and that 556 00:34:28.873 --> 00:34:31.993 road," and that's just the question I have, how was that approached? 557 00:34:32.112 --> 00:34:34.092 It's pretty typical when you have two locations. 558 00:34:34.152 --> 00:34:38.592 The standard for if we do seal and stripe or we do mill and overlay, it is 559 00:34:38.652 --> 00:34:41.442 considered two separate projects, and we've run into this before. 560 00:34:41.953 --> 00:34:45.162 When you get into mill and overlay, you get some really heavy mobilization fees. 561 00:34:45.192 --> 00:34:48.283 But if they're moving from two locations, it is standard. 562 00:34:48.882 --> 00:34:50.922 Okay. All right. Thank you. 563 00:34:50.982 --> 00:34:54.162 And we did inquire if they would reduce it to one, and the answer was no. 564 00:34:54.493 --> 00:34:55.062 Understand. 565 00:35:04.422 --> 00:35:04.602 So 566 00:35:08.262 --> 00:35:09.462 make a motion that we 567 00:35:13.002 --> 00:35:18.612 proceed with installing the markers on the multimodal paths 568 00:35:19.452 --> 00:35:19.632 from- 569 00:35:24.072 --> 00:35:28.123 We've got item B on the agenda is that actual project. 570 00:35:30.522 --> 00:35:35.472 Yes. There are two quotes included, the stretch from 466A to Evans Prairie, and 571 00:35:35.502 --> 00:35:37.212 then 466A to- 572 00:35:37.242 --> 00:35:37.362 Yes 573 00:35:37.362 --> 00:35:40.873 ... Hillsboro Trail. The two quotes combined are 574 00:35:40.902 --> 00:35:44.202 $20,759.50. 575 00:35:47.592 --> 00:35:49.242 Okay. Sorry, I'm looking at the other order. 576 00:35:54.792 --> 00:35:55.272 There it is. 577 00:35:59.502 --> 00:36:02.022 Does District 9 go all the way down to- 578 00:36:02.922 --> 00:36:05.893 And that's where I had brought up District 5 in particular. 579 00:36:06.222 --> 00:36:11.682 When District 5 elected to do their centerline RPM installation, it's all 580 00:36:11.742 --> 00:36:17.682 dependent upon which district's bonds funded segments of the transportation trails, 581 00:36:17.742 --> 00:36:23.658 the multimodal path. So- For example, District 5 extends beyond what you would 582 00:36:23.688 --> 00:36:27.468 consider their boundaries to be. Actually, to right out here, what you would 583 00:36:27.828 --> 00:36:31.788 generally consider to be the geographic area of District 8, but they are under the 584 00:36:31.848 --> 00:36:33.918 ownership and maintenance of District 5. 585 00:36:34.398 --> 00:36:38.958 So when you look at these segments, it's all dependent upon what your bond issuance 586 00:36:39.018 --> 00:36:39.168 can provide. 587 00:36:39.199 --> 00:36:44.808 Well, actually also, excuse me, Charlotte Court- 588 00:36:46.848 --> 00:36:46.968 Yeah 589 00:36:47.298 --> 00:36:52.158 ... pin center Hillsboro and a portion of the Village of Charlotte crosses 590 00:36:52.188 --> 00:36:52.818 Hillsboro. 591 00:36:54.498 --> 00:36:55.788 It's on the other side of Hillsboro- 592 00:36:56.748 --> 00:36:57.078 Okay 593 00:36:57.108 --> 00:36:58.218 ... up to Most Boulevard. 594 00:37:04.068 --> 00:37:07.548 And I guess more of a technical point, on Buena Vista, 595 00:37:08.928 --> 00:37:11.029 you come into Evans Prairie Golf Course. 596 00:37:13.038 --> 00:37:16.428 It's never been clear which district that one is in. 597 00:37:19.338 --> 00:37:23.898 Do you know where we stop on Buena? This is kind of a weird question, I'll admit 598 00:37:23.988 --> 00:37:24.318 that. 599 00:37:26.748 --> 00:37:29.268 So I'm going to pull up a map. 600 00:37:37.008 --> 00:37:38.568 So it's Evans Prairie Trail, 601 00:37:40.938 --> 00:37:45.618 is the paths that were constructed, originally constructed through District 9 bond 602 00:37:45.708 --> 00:37:46.398 issuance. 603 00:37:49.218 --> 00:37:52.368 Commissioner Wiley, again, if you would like, we can provide a map to display that, 604 00:37:52.398 --> 00:37:56.148 to show where the trails start and end on Morrison, Buena Vista. 605 00:37:57.468 --> 00:37:57.918 I think we- 606 00:38:02.058 --> 00:38:03.378 I think we can do without that. 607 00:38:03.498 --> 00:38:04.398 Okay. Thank you. 608 00:38:05.868 --> 00:38:10.608 It'd be nice informational later, Mister, if you would. 609 00:38:10.818 --> 00:38:11.538 We'll email that to you. 610 00:38:11.568 --> 00:38:12.558 Yeah. Thank you. 611 00:38:13.908 --> 00:38:18.138 There's a lot way, way back, there was a lot of land clearing, and some of it's in 612 00:38:18.199 --> 00:38:20.838 our bonds, but it doesn't appear to be ours. 613 00:38:21.588 --> 00:38:26.058 But then again, the sanctuary over by Belkade is in our bonds. 614 00:38:29.238 --> 00:38:29.508 Okay. 615 00:38:32.358 --> 00:38:33.738 For the amounts stated then, 616 00:38:35.268 --> 00:38:37.638 proceed with installing the markers. 617 00:38:39.768 --> 00:38:41.838 Mr. Chairman, I make a motion to approve. 618 00:38:43.368 --> 00:38:43.728 Second. 619 00:38:44.628 --> 00:38:46.848 Okay. Any further discussion? 620 00:38:49.398 --> 00:38:53.118 Okay. Motion made and seconded. No further discussion. Those in favor? 621 00:38:53.568 --> 00:38:53.868 Aye. 622 00:38:53.928 --> 00:38:54.138 Aye. 623 00:38:54.558 --> 00:38:56.208 Opposed? Okay. 624 00:38:56.868 --> 00:38:59.779 Thank you. We will follow back up with the installation timeline. 625 00:39:04.608 --> 00:39:05.808 Okay, let me go back to the 626 00:39:11.358 --> 00:39:12.138 summary. 627 00:39:13.518 --> 00:39:14.508 Financial statements. 628 00:39:16.068 --> 00:39:18.858 They are available. Are there any questions? 629 00:39:23.838 --> 00:39:27.408 By the way, the gentleman before that spoke on the bonds was from PFM. 630 00:39:27.468 --> 00:39:32.688 They do the investments for us. They are for all of the villages, and they've been 631 00:39:32.717 --> 00:39:33.949 pretty decent to work with. 632 00:39:36.047 --> 00:39:37.488 Well, actually, I do, because it... 633 00:39:38.718 --> 00:39:42.978 I'm sorry. Because it does potentially involve finances, I do have a question. 634 00:39:44.538 --> 00:39:47.478 Because some of my neighbors have been raising the issue. 635 00:39:48.588 --> 00:39:54.558 I'm sure you must be aware of the beaten and resulting mess that's 636 00:39:54.648 --> 00:40:00.468 on Hillsboro. So the question I've received is: Is there any future 637 00:40:00.529 --> 00:40:03.378 plans for doing any resurfacing within District 9? 638 00:40:04.968 --> 00:40:09.048 So we actually just had that conversation in District 10, and those concerns have 639 00:40:09.048 --> 00:40:12.708 been relayed to Sumter County, who is conducting that project. 640 00:40:13.788 --> 00:40:19.338 Based on their project planning, we do not see District 9 identified on there, but 641 00:40:19.428 --> 00:40:23.598 I've also requested DPM ask them if there's any areas in District 9 that are 642 00:40:23.658 --> 00:40:24.318 forthcoming. 643 00:40:25.279 --> 00:40:25.848 Thank you. 644 00:40:32.718 --> 00:40:34.128 DPM monthly report. 645 00:40:34.998 --> 00:40:36.048 Mike, sorry. 646 00:40:36.138 --> 00:40:36.438 Yes. 647 00:40:37.008 --> 00:40:41.298 Just I'm trying to learn all this finance stuff here. 648 00:40:43.098 --> 00:40:48.168 The only balance sheet that I can find is the villages 649 00:40:49.008 --> 00:40:49.668 in total. 650 00:40:50.598 --> 00:40:50.808 Yes. 651 00:40:50.898 --> 00:40:53.088 We don't do a balance sheet by district? 652 00:40:55.998 --> 00:40:58.699 No, that question has been posed before. 653 00:41:01.968 --> 00:41:05.868 From my background, yeah, I'd like to see a balance sheet and a P&L. 654 00:41:07.518 --> 00:41:12.858 But I was told at one point that it could not be... I don't see why not, but... 655 00:41:14.508 --> 00:41:18.288 Okay. So I kind of have to back into it by just one of the journals. 656 00:41:19.188 --> 00:41:20.718 A little bit of backing into it, but... 657 00:41:23.988 --> 00:41:27.258 And if you'd like, we can certainly schedule time for you to sit down with Mr. 658 00:41:27.498 --> 00:41:31.488 Boyle or Mr. Lionaris to go through the monthly financial statements that are 659 00:41:31.518 --> 00:41:32.148 presented 660 00:41:33.648 --> 00:41:35.029 from the government side. 661 00:41:36.529 --> 00:41:37.038 I understand. 662 00:41:37.068 --> 00:41:37.218 Yeah. 663 00:41:37.308 --> 00:41:38.058 I did that already. 664 00:41:38.508 --> 00:41:38.838 Okay. 665 00:41:38.868 --> 00:41:42.108 But I don't get a list of assets and liabilities. That's why. 666 00:41:45.468 --> 00:41:46.068 There's a statement- 667 00:41:46.788 --> 00:41:51.258 We got a ton of assets on the books, and I just don't know where they came from and 668 00:41:51.288 --> 00:41:54.468 how they get distributed, and there's a ton of debt against it. 669 00:41:54.858 --> 00:41:54.949 So 670 00:41:56.838 --> 00:41:59.988 I probably can create it myself, but I thought maybe if they did... 671 00:42:00.228 --> 00:42:03.018 I went to the annual report, and there is a balance sheet for the 672 00:42:04.728 --> 00:42:09.018 system as a whole, I guess, I don't know the right term, but not individual 673 00:42:09.078 --> 00:42:09.529 districts. 674 00:42:12.798 --> 00:42:15.318 Over the years, there doesn't seem to have been any 675 00:42:18.438 --> 00:42:22.368 individual district reports, and I've had this discussion over the years. 676 00:42:26.088 --> 00:42:28.008 Not with any of the current staff here. 677 00:42:30.708 --> 00:42:30.828 So- 678 00:42:32.478 --> 00:42:35.118 Well, when we came on board, 679 00:42:36.588 --> 00:42:39.408 and we had budget talks, there was 680 00:42:40.668 --> 00:42:46.548 paperwork came out where you had identified, it was what our liabilities were, like 681 00:42:48.588 --> 00:42:52.398 the signs welcoming you into this village and stuff like that. 682 00:42:52.457 --> 00:42:52.818 It was 683 00:42:55.968 --> 00:42:58.908 based on dollars that was built when the 684 00:43:00.348 --> 00:43:01.248 development was built. 685 00:43:01.308 --> 00:43:01.668 That's it. 686 00:43:02.029 --> 00:43:05.478 But they were things that we would not necessarily have to rebuild even in a 687 00:43:05.538 --> 00:43:10.998 hurricane. And so we had some massive dollar figures on that report, and that was 688 00:43:11.088 --> 00:43:16.788 specifically for District 9. And we went through that quite 689 00:43:16.818 --> 00:43:20.058 extensively at that time, I think two or three different meetings on there. 690 00:43:20.118 --> 00:43:23.328 But that's the only time I've seen that kind of report, and I'm not sure if that's 691 00:43:23.358 --> 00:43:25.068 what you're looking for, Dave. 692 00:43:25.608 --> 00:43:25.968 Kind of. 693 00:43:28.788 --> 00:43:32.688 We're moving a half a million dollars every year from some place. 694 00:43:32.748 --> 00:43:34.758 I forget now where it is to our budget. 695 00:43:35.029 --> 00:43:37.998 So it's coming out of excess assets, I guess. 696 00:43:38.328 --> 00:43:38.838 Sure is. 697 00:43:39.199 --> 00:43:39.438 No. 698 00:43:40.699 --> 00:43:46.368 $104 million of fixed assets assigned to it, and they wanted to put aside 100%. 699 00:43:46.728 --> 00:43:47.029 Right. 700 00:43:47.118 --> 00:43:48.078 Which is ludicrous. 701 00:43:50.118 --> 00:43:55.188 At least you save the basement. But then I went through the fixed assets, and a lot 702 00:43:55.248 --> 00:43:56.478 of this isn't ours. 703 00:43:58.188 --> 00:44:03.858 The site your house is on, that's in the bond, but we don't own that. The roadways. 704 00:44:03.949 --> 00:44:07.218 There were four categories. Only one of them applied for us. 705 00:44:07.878 --> 00:44:11.568 So our fixed assets went from $104 million to $7 million, 706 00:44:12.949 --> 00:44:17.358 and they had put money aside in reserves well beyond $7 million. 707 00:44:17.418 --> 00:44:19.488 They were going to go for the whole $100 million. 708 00:44:20.538 --> 00:44:24.978 Now there's a serious excess in there, and we're bleeding it back at half a million 709 00:44:25.038 --> 00:44:25.968 or so a year- 710 00:44:26.208 --> 00:44:26.388 Right 711 00:44:26.718 --> 00:44:28.728 ... to bring it back down. 712 00:44:29.088 --> 00:44:30.138 From 100 to 7? 713 00:44:30.678 --> 00:44:35.358 Well, it was at 13 million plus the roads, which were already in the 7 million. 714 00:44:35.418 --> 00:44:35.658 Okay. 715 00:44:35.928 --> 00:44:38.058 So it was about $15 million. 716 00:44:40.279 --> 00:44:42.588 That's the type of stuff that I'd like to see, that I 717 00:44:43.848 --> 00:44:47.868 can do my analysis on the financial condition of the district. 718 00:44:47.928 --> 00:44:49.878 That's all I'm looking for. But anyway, that's okay. 719 00:44:50.628 --> 00:44:54.798 I will share some emails with you from about eight years ago with prior staff that 720 00:44:54.858 --> 00:44:55.878 were rather heated. 721 00:44:57.888 --> 00:44:58.368 Okay. 722 00:44:58.428 --> 00:44:58.578 Mr. Lionaris. 723 00:44:58.668 --> 00:45:02.358 Mr. Chair, I don't have a whole lot, Sean Boyle Finance, to add to that 724 00:45:02.449 --> 00:45:08.029 conversation other than your full balance sheet, your income statements are all 725 00:45:08.568 --> 00:45:11.958 annually displayed on the audit. So you can look through there, and you'll have a 726 00:45:11.988 --> 00:45:14.418 complete accounting of everything we have. 727 00:45:15.168 --> 00:45:17.478 They're also out on your website under District 9. 728 00:45:17.538 --> 00:45:20.298 You'll find under financials, the annual audits are out there. 729 00:45:20.658 --> 00:45:21.618 You can look at those balance sheets. 730 00:45:21.918 --> 00:45:27.529 If you want more detail as far as like the fixed asset register, I can certainly 731 00:45:27.558 --> 00:45:30.978 provide that to you. You can go through there and review it and- 732 00:45:31.699 --> 00:45:34.098 I thought I looked at the financial statements online. 733 00:45:34.128 --> 00:45:35.208 I didn't see the balance sheet. 734 00:45:35.718 --> 00:45:36.318 For the year. 735 00:45:36.468 --> 00:45:36.708 Right. 736 00:45:36.768 --> 00:45:41.916 But Mr. Boyle's also referencing the fixed asset report If you'd like a report of 737 00:45:42.006 --> 00:45:43.476 all fixed assets within- 738 00:45:44.226 --> 00:45:45.246 I don't know what I want, but I 739 00:45:46.806 --> 00:45:51.876 want it. I have that. Just- I have the fixed asset report. Okay. 740 00:45:53.106 --> 00:45:56.886 If you want, you can just reach out to me, and I'll walk you through what we have, 741 00:45:56.946 --> 00:46:00.606 and I'm more than happy to give it all to you, and then you can sort through it and 742 00:46:01.386 --> 00:46:02.826 maybe refine your questions. 743 00:46:03.906 --> 00:46:05.586 Okay. Maybe talk about what I don't understand. 744 00:46:05.946 --> 00:46:06.336 No problem. 745 00:46:07.146 --> 00:46:07.386 Thank 746 00:46:08.766 --> 00:46:09.336 you.

District council, I know you're filling 760 00:47:08.886 --> 00:47:10.536 in and kind of on the spot, but... 761 00:47:11.317 --> 00:47:17.106 Yes, sir. Thank you. One agenda item, ethics and public records training date 762 00:47:17.556 --> 00:47:20.826 is October 29th, 2026, at 2:00 p.m. 763 00:47:20.946 --> 00:47:24.306 The training will be held at the district office, and that includes district 764 00:47:24.396 --> 00:47:25.297 council themselves. 765 00:47:27.996 --> 00:47:28.056 Thank you. 766 00:47:28.086 --> 00:47:31.177 Okay. Project wide. 767 00:47:32.196 --> 00:47:33.276 Yes, a couple things. 768 00:47:39.606 --> 00:47:42.096 Hang on. Okay, there it is. 769 00:47:46.567 --> 00:47:51.876 A couple of things happened. We got a discussion on the new 770 00:47:51.966 --> 00:47:57.006 long-range readers. That's going to go out now. It's in the new fiscal year. 771 00:47:57.036 --> 00:47:58.446 It's going to go out for a bid, 772 00:48:00.006 --> 00:48:05.376 probably sometime estimating maybe around January or so. 773 00:48:06.036 --> 00:48:08.406 And depending on that, they'll start installing. 774 00:48:08.496 --> 00:48:12.696 There's about 300 of those that they have to go through and install, check, and all 775 00:48:12.756 --> 00:48:15.246 that kind of junk. So maybe, 776 00:48:16.866 --> 00:48:22.716 the end of this fiscal year, the long-range readers will be at all the 777 00:48:22.776 --> 00:48:23.256 gates. 778 00:48:25.116 --> 00:48:30.336 The old system is going to be up and running in parallel 779 00:48:31.446 --> 00:48:34.086 for a while. That's not determined at this time. 780 00:48:34.206 --> 00:48:37.116 So for a while, we'll have both systems up and running. 781 00:48:37.626 --> 00:48:43.356 The PWAC asked for a briefing next time to kind of understand a little bit more 782 00:48:43.416 --> 00:48:47.826 about that process, how much is going to go on there. So we'll have that going. 783 00:48:50.196 --> 00:48:53.226 And very interesting discussion about golf. 784 00:48:54.845 --> 00:48:59.616 We had Silver Lake, Hilltop, El Diablo, and El Santiago are progressing well. 785 00:49:00.126 --> 00:49:03.396 They've installed it for those who go up to Hilltop all the way up there. 786 00:49:04.236 --> 00:49:08.436 They're installing a 5,000 square foot putting green up there, which they haven't 787 00:49:08.496 --> 00:49:11.106 had before. So it's an improvement going on there. 788 00:49:11.916 --> 00:49:16.836 Redfish Run, everybody saw Turtle Mound on the way up here, is in demo. 789 00:49:17.076 --> 00:49:23.016 Roosevelt is closed also. Renos for 26, 27 will be 790 00:49:23.106 --> 00:49:28.596 Oakley, Hawks Bay, Yankee. Just brought up another factoid out there that 791 00:49:29.076 --> 00:49:34.986 generally have to do a total renovation about every 30 years on most golf 792 00:49:35.016 --> 00:49:40.177 courses. But he said the extent of play we get, they will do a 793 00:49:41.076 --> 00:49:43.446 topical renovation about every 10 years. 794 00:49:43.506 --> 00:49:48.606 The difference in that is we're at about a 1.2 to 1.8 million every time we do what 795 00:49:48.666 --> 00:49:49.146 we're doing 796 00:49:50.406 --> 00:49:53.496 currently at the golf courses at Turtle Mound. 797 00:49:53.646 --> 00:49:56.826 All the dirt's moved around, and they go all the way down to the bottom of the 798 00:49:56.886 --> 00:50:02.736 irrigation. This top just takes the grass and the top mixture 799 00:50:02.797 --> 00:50:05.946 of dirt out, refreshes the dirt, refreshes the green. 800 00:50:06.427 --> 00:50:10.506 That's about $300,000 per course when that's done. 801 00:50:10.596 --> 00:50:10.776 So 802 00:50:12.036 --> 00:50:16.536 somewhere down the road, we'll start to see these, I'll call them mini renovations, 803 00:50:17.317 --> 00:50:23.166 to keep the course playable. So very well received, and they've 804 00:50:23.196 --> 00:50:27.547 got the new ops going in for golf, 805 00:50:28.416 --> 00:50:33.996 splitting executive and championship course management and 806 00:50:34.086 --> 00:50:34.746 maintenance. 807 00:50:36.006 --> 00:50:40.567 Mr. Jones will be still the head of maintenance, and there's no splitting of the 808 00:50:40.596 --> 00:50:42.276 maintenance with the way it's currently run. 809 00:50:42.876 --> 00:50:46.866 So expect golf to continue getting better. That's all. 810 00:50:46.896 --> 00:50:52.326 Okay. Not talking about any 811 00:50:52.386 --> 00:50:54.216 individual's golf getting better. 812 00:51:00.096 --> 00:51:02.976 Okay, that brings us to the last item, which is adjournment. 813 00:51:03.636 --> 00:51:05.706 Mr. Chairman, I make a motion to adjourn. 814 00:51:06.547 --> 00:51:09.336 Second. Discussion? Those in favor? 815 00:51:09.486 --> 00:51:09.576 Aye. 816 00:51:09.666 --> 00:51:11.466 Aye. Good night, folks.
