Amenity Manager - Report
A copy of the amenity manager’s report was included in the agenda package for the Board’s review.
Ms. Timmons suggested looking into offering swim lessons again for the community. Ms. Meyers stated that the fireworks provider has asked for a minimum budget of
$15,000 or he will be unable to host the event this year. The current events budget is $23,000 and she has spent $6,000 so far, however there are upcoming expenses anticipated.
Ms. Timmons recommended deferring this discussion to allow the Board and staff time to consider if anything can be cut.
Mr. Laughlin asked Ms. Meyers to see if the resident will attend the next meeting to answer questions from the Board.

Field Operations Manager
Mr. Harden provided an overview of repairs and community upkeep that have been completed since the last meeting. He also informed the Board that within the last couple of weeks, the irrigation pump that controls the amenity center area is not maintaining enough pressure to adequately water the facility. The pump will need to be pulled out of the ground and inspected to determine what repairs are needed, which will cost at least a couple thousand dollars.

On MOTION by Ms. Alford seconded by Ms. Timmons with all in favor the proposal from East Coast Wells and Pumps to replace the well pump and pipes was approved at an amount not to exceed
$5,000 with the Chair authorized to approve any additional costs.

Mr. Harden stated that a few years ago estimates for resurfacing the splash pool were discussed, however the Board chose to prioritize enhancing the landscaping at the entrances. One entrance has been done so far. He asked the Board to consider whether they’d like to continue the plan to enhance the other entrance, or if they’d prefer to resurface the pool.
Mr. Laughlin added that there is $225,000 available in capital reserves.
Ms. Waldhauer recommended prioritizing the pool resurfacing as the current surface is
rough.
Mr. Harden stated that he would get updated pricing to resurface the pool prior to the
summer break.

EIGHTH ORDER OF BUSINESS	Discussion of Rental and Events Liability
Implications
Ms. Timmons stated that there is a homeowner that would like to rent the athletic field and use a bounce house during the rental.
Mr. Evans asked that more information be obtained from the homeowner including how big the bounce house will be, what area it will be in, and when it will be removed.
Mr. Laughlin recommended an agreement for the event and asked Ms. Meyers to get the rental information to Mr. George.

NINTH ORDER OF BUSINESS	Supervisor Requests
Mr. Evans stated that he does not feel the HOA is not enforcing proper maintenance of people’s homes and yards.
Mr. Laughlin recommended Mr. Evans bring his concerns up with the HOA board as the CDD has no authority over the HOA.
Ms. Timmons asked that a discussion to explain the differences between the HOA and CDD responsibilities be coordinated.

TENTH ORDER OF BUSINESS	Audience Comments
Cathy Stepalavich encouraged residents to attend the HOA meetings to voice their concerns.
Jill Graby stated that new legislation was signed by the Governor that ties the hands of the HOA. Houses get bought up by companies and the HOA will fine the owners over and over again and it takes a lot to get a lien put on the house. She recommended complaining to the legislature. Ms. Graby also asked that the Board not repeat the landscaping that was used to enhance the first entrance.
