VCDD No. 12 – Meeting Minutes March 13, 2025 Page 2 The Board and audience in attendance observed a moment of silence for those who serve our Country and community. 1.D. Welcome Meeting Attendees The Board welcomed all those in attendance. 1.E. Audience Comments Sandy French, Monarch Grove, requested that the Board consider proceeding with the installation of centerline reflective pavement markers (RPMs) to provide increased safety for residents traversing the multi-modal paths (MMPs) at night. Ms. French stated that she was told that the installation of the RPMs could be funded through the Project Wide Fund (PWF) if six (6) Districts agree to proceed with the installation of the RPMs on the MMPs. Carrie Duckett, Deputy District Manager, advised that this item is included on the Old Business Status Update, but stated that at this time no Districts have chosen to proceed with the installation of the RPMs along the centerline of the MMPs. Each District owns its MMPs and the Board has the ability to fund the installation of the RPMs; however, an important consideration is for the markings on the MMPs to remain consistent. Ms. Duckett suggested that the Board participate in the discussions occurring as part of the Multi-Modal Path Discussion Group (MMPDG) and the Project Wide Advisory Committee (PWAC) to ensure consistency. Supervisor Martin inquired if the Board chose to proceed with the installation individually would the District be responsible for the funding for the installation and ongoing maintenance. Ms. Duckett stated that if the Board chose to proceed individually, then District 12 would fund the installation and maintenance utilizing the maintenance assessment revenues. If the PWAC chose to proceed, the installation would be accomplished through funding by the PWF. Supervisor Montalvo inquired if the Board chose to proceed independently would the cost be $12,000. Ms. Duckett stated that the $12,000 cost provided was if all paths within the PWF were to be completed. Staff would have to confirm if there would be an additional mobilization cost if the Board chose to proceed independently. Ms. Duckett stated that the premise of the PWF is to maintain consistency of the common infrastructure in Districts 5 through 13, and it would be Staff’s suggestion for this discussion to occur at the PWAC meeting so that all participating Districts can agree to have consistency along the MMPs.

VCDD No. 12 – Meeting Minutes March 13, 2025 Page 3 Supervisor Martin stated that he will address the item at the April 14, 2025 PWAC meeting. Ms. Duckett stated that Staff will include the item on the April 14, 2025 agenda under Supervisor Comments. Supervisor Montalvo stated that if there is consensus he would recommend that the Board go on record stating that the District 12 Board is in favor of proceeding with the installation of centerline RPMs to improve safety on the MMPs. Supervisor Montalvo stated that he understands the need for consistency, but if the PWAC does not choose to proceed, this Board can take action. Supervisor Roudabush requested that Staff obtain the costs to install the RPMs if the Board chose to proceed independently. Ms. Duckett stated that Chair Roudabush can respond to the email sent by District 5 Chair Kadow and advise that the District 12 Board is in favor of proceeding with the installation of RPMs. Mark Brionez, District Counsel, stated that because both Chair Roudabush and Chair Kadow serve on the MMPDDG, no interaction between the two (2) should occur to ensure that an inadvertent Sunshine Law violation did not occur, but Staff could advise the MMPDG that District 12 is in favor of proceeding. On MOTION by Phil Montalvo, seconded by Ron McMahon, with all in favor, the Board stated that the Village Community Development District No. 12 Board is in favor of proceeding with the installation of centerline Reflective Pavement Markers and Staff will forward notice to the Multi-Modal Path Discussion Group. Supervisor Martin inquired if all Districts did not agree to consistently install the centerline RPMs, but District 12 or another District did install the RPMs, could those Districts be held liable if an accident occurred. Mr. Brionez stated that the Board choosing to proceed should not increase the District’s liability. There is always a potential that a lawsuit could be filed, but that does not mean that the lawsuit would had merit. SECOND ORDER OF BUSINESS: New Business 2.A. Approval of the Minutes

Roll call all supervisor attendance. Please rise to the p please on States under behalf, invisible Liberty. Thank you. Welcome to District 12 meeting for March. Please silence your phone's review. We have not at this time. Anybody that has anything that is not on our agenda, please come to the microphone. State your name and address. Good morning. I'm Sandy French 58 64 Flint Loop in Monarch Grove and I'm here today. Um, I love Village Life. My husband and I have fun going to different events. Sometimes that includes going by golf cart at night, the golf cart paths provide a way to travel, but not always the safest. I reached out to some of the other villagers in all the different villages that are part of your district and got some interesting comments. These are some of the comments that I received. Uh, most people can't see well at night, no matter what your age, anything to help would be great. Another said they had emailed infrastructure numerous times about this subject and was told a study would have to be done. It makes me, and this isn't me, this is a villager. It makes me nuts how they quibble over reflectors tunnel lights when safety in quote is of paramount concern in the villages. Um, just quite a few other comments. We need more reflectors. Another one, it's necessary. Another one. I agree a hundred percent. Another one, I totally agree with you. I work in Brownwood. Coming home at night on that path at night is not a good thing. Add a little rain in. It's hard to see. Um, a couple only two comments. That one was to put on your lights on your golf cart, which, okay, that tells me how intelligent that person is. Another, I don't like to Dr. The bumpy feeling driving over the reflectors that are already installed. If you're driving over them, then you're on the wrong side of the, of the patch. Um, so there's quite a few other ones the same way. Some of 'em expressing concerns that the tunnels, not all tunnels have lights on them. And if you there, and I can, I don't know which exact ones, but I know we've noticed that too. There's a few tunnels that do not have lights at night. I have, I have looked into this and received information that District 12 has an opportunity to have the RPMs reflective pavement markers installed in the middle of the lanes of our golf cart path. This would provide additional margin of safety for our residents, especially those who have difficulty with night vision. It's my understanding that it would be paid out of the project wide Advisory Committee funds rather than our district operating funds. If a majority of just six districts would agree to have them installed. If this is true, according to what I've looked into, why wouldn't District 12 jump at the chance to have them installed? They would not cost the residents to thing. And we'd be actually getting back some of the money that we've already paid into that, um, project wide advisory committee. It would provide a higher level of safety for our elder elderly residents when they drive at night, or guests and visitors that are not elderly and still would be a safer thing for them at night. The new markers, my understanding, are recessed, so would not interfere with bikers or walkers. It seems to be a no brainer. I believe a majority of our residents would welcome them and appreciate them. I appreciate you listening to my concerns from me and my fellow visit villagers. Please help install these reflectors. So the Villager Villages is not only a friendly place, but a safer one. I appreciate your consideration. Thank you. Thank you. I am going to refer to the district on that, 'cause I know it, it is under the PA right now to be done and looked at, and I know Dale attended the meeting for that. Yeah, I think so. It is on, it's on our agenda, isn't it? Later down there. Yes. As part of old business, the email that was provided by the District five chair to, um, all members of the project wide advisory committee is included. Um, as of right now, nobody is moving forward with adding these RPMs to the multimodal path on a consistent basis, um, other than where they already are, which is a hazard areas. So the median, um, curves, areas like that, that is the discussion. That is something that was part of the multimodal path discussion group. Um, each board individually owns your path, so you have the ability to do it with or without, um, the other boards that are part of project wide. However, one of the most important things on the path, um, is consistency so that residents know what to expect when you're driving the multimodal path. You have no, I idea that you're leaving District 12 and entering district 13 or 14. So certainly consistency is important, which is why it's being looked at through the multimodal pass discussion group. And, and PA, um, if, if you would like to direct staff to do additional research on different RPMs, we certainly can. Um, but again, I would, I would urge you to, um, you know, have these conversations through project wide or the multimodal Path discussion group just to ensure the consistency throughout all of the multimodal pass systems. So, oh, quick que question if I, if I may. So my understanding is that in theory, uh, district 12 could, uh, mandate an increase or total, uh, uh, reflectors all, all across the district. I presume that we would pay for it Correct Out, out of our own funds. So if it's done through project wide, then it would approved through project wide, then it would be through the project wide budget, which is your maintenance assessment dollars, as well as the maintenance assessment dollars for all districts. If you go outside of project wide and let's say project wide at the end of it decides not to move forward, but you want to move forward with the paths and District 12, then you could use your, your budget, your funds to add the rrp m Would, would it also be correct that if we went forward either individually or through project wide, we would end up paying for this either individually or through project a project wide assessment? Correct. Okay. Thank you. Yes, sir. Question, so I understand that correctly. So if we decide to do this and then, uh, say, okay, what's $12,000, which we would be on the hook for if we decide to do it, the only then issue would be one that they would be inconsistent with what PAC does for the, for the others as far as the type of reflector and two, that if they say, well, we're just not gonna do it, then we just get, we just pay 12,000. Correct. I, um, I just wanna make sure I understand your question. So the $12,000 is to the $12,000 is the proportionate cost for District 12 if RPMs were added through all of project wide territory? Because there's staging costs and you do get some type of an economy of scale, um, when you're looking at RPMs being added. So if you did it on your own, I am not sure that it would still be $12,000. It may be a little bit more just because a, a company has to come and mobilize just for your district. It may not be, but, but keep that in mind. Um, we would encourage the, the, one of the functions of project wide is to ensure consistency on all of the common area infrastructure, whether it's multimodal pass, landscaping, stormwater systems. So ideally it would be better to go through project wide and have all districts five through 13 agree to have consistency. But at the end of the day, you own your path and if you decide you want to add them, then you certainly can do that, which is what District four did, for example, on striping their path. Um, none of the districts wanted to strike their path. District Four felt strongly that it was a safety issue and therefore they striped their paths outside of what every other district did. So you can do RPMs just in your district, but I would encourage you to at least if this is something you want to at least initiate the conversation through project wide and see if the other districts are in favor of moving forward. Okay. Two things, uh, to that, Carrie. Number one, some based on past experience, it's like herding cats. Okay. Uh, and does anybody have a sense in terms of timing, how long it would take for PWC to act on this Dale? Uh, Well, it, it was not discussed Monday. Uh, it was discussed in February. Uh, and I can't say that I recall exactly what they were going to do. I think they did mention the committee. Uh, but, uh, that's the kind of feedback I like to hear, is we want to push it from, from this district. And I assure you, uh, the April meeting that, uh, that I will, I will bring it up and it will, it will get him, well, we'll push. So we can certainly add it to the agenda under supervisor comments for Supervisor Martin to bring up so that it, the other districts know that it is being discussed. Um, and if you, you saw the email from Supervisor Kal on the chair of District five, where he was wanting to move forward with it. He was wanting District five to be a test, um, to have the RPMs added. But as of now, collectively there has not been a decision to move forward. Well, I, tell me what appropriate in the agenda. It is. I would like District 12 if, you know, everybody else agrees, uh, to go on record as being in favor of doing this. And then, uh, at least they will know officially the guidance that this district is given. If PA decides, no, we're not gonna do it, then we can just go ahead and do it ourselves. And that's gonna be the way it is. But, uh, I see your point about consistency. I think that's a good point. Uh, but I would like to be on record as saying, yes, we do need these. It's a safety issue. I I, I've experienced it myself and, uh, it's a good thing. So whenever it's appropriate, uh, Mr. Chairman, I would like to suggest that. So what I think we ought to do is also have them get us a cost of what it would be on our own doing it Sure. At this time maybe. So we do have that in our as an idea for us. Perfect. And let, yes, I agree with making a motion for us to say that we are in favor of it, but then also the backup for that would be for us to have a cost if we decide to do it ourselves. Right. I agree. I agree. I think if we get that cost, at least we go on record, we want It, and then we'll know what we're dealing with. Uh, dollar wise. I have a motion to I so move. I I'll second. All in favor? Aye. Aye. So we would like That. Okay. So the, the, the motion was that you are, um, collectively deciding that you are in favor of adding RPMs. Um, you're going to first approach project wide to make sure that they are aware of this Board's decision. Um, in the meantime, staff is going to provide you a cost if you were to add the RPMs as presented in that, um, proposal through Project Wide only to District 12. And we'll provide that to you at your next meeting. Yes. Yes. Yes. Okay. Mr. Chair, you, you also, um, should have received an email from, um, the Chair of District five, Mr. Kal? Yes. It, it may, I'm not sure if you responded, but that may be another avenue if you respond and let him know that your board has given you direction to let him know that you are collectively in favor of moving forward. Yeah, I'll respond to him. 'cause our next meeting's not until August, if I remember Right, right now. So at this time I will respond to him. I let him know that we are in favor of that. Okay. Is, is there a way that, I don't know where District Twelve's meeting is timing wise to some of the other districts? Is there a way to get this brought up in case they don't have the somebody who will step forward and bring it up, uh, to get them to react? 'cause I, I didn't, I had never heard about this majority of the districts deciding before they would move forward. I did not hear that. No, you, it, that's, that's not necessarily, it's if Project Wide has not agreed collectively that that's what they want to do. However, each district individually has the ability to, to make that determination. You are the first district that meets that is in the project wide, um, territory. So certainly you could attend the other meetings district, um, you know, 13 and then five through, um, 11 meet next week. Um, and let, and let them know there are not, um, and I'll defer to Mr. Brianna's, but there are not sunshine issues either. If you reach out to the chair of those boards, um, as long as it's not a project wide member reaching out to another Project wide member and let them know that, um, you know, you are in favor of it and, and ask that they notify their board. I can't recall if this board is a, has a participant in that multimodal Yeah, they do. Okay. And is that, um, meeting subject to Sunshine Law? Is it noticed minutes taken. Okay. So they have decision making authority. Yeah. Or is it discussion group on that? So I wouldn't, uh, encourage the member who's the member for District 12. So you, I wouldn't encourage you to reach out to any other member of that board because you are also a member of the same board, but you can reach out to members. Like, is Gary Kal one of the ones on that board? Yeah. So that might be a concern because two members of the same board subject to Sunshine Law, not supposed to discuss any matter that may come before it, um, could, Could staff reach out to the members of the Multimodal Path discussion group and project wide and just inform them that District 12 has asked us to notify them that they are collectively in favor of moving forward with RPMs. Yeah, I think so. And, and I'm not even sure that it's gonna be a, um, sunshine Law violation if you were to do it. But for now, I don't know enough about the other multimodal path group, um, to make that. So I for now, you shouldn't contact any other member of that board because you're on that board. Yeah. So just a straight discussion here. Yeah. But the staff could do That. Staff can do that just to protect It. The staff can do it. And again, you know, the fact that you don't have decision making authority on the multimodal path discussion group leads me to believe there wouldn't be a Sunshine Law violation, but in, you know, extreme caution here in conservative approach, you shouldn't do it for now. Um, and I need to learn a little bit more, more about that group, um, going forward, because clearly it's something that's gonna be discussed often. Okay. Thank You. Do, do we need to direct staff? I think you just did. Okay. Yep. I, I understand. I need Directed for the staff to send them a notification. We, we received the direction. Okay. Um, I, I wanna thank the lady for Yes. Bringing you to the board. Thank You. Thank you very much. Thank you. Can, can I ask a question of counsel If, uh, district 12 or two or three districts decided to go it alone, uh, Ms. Duckett has brought up the, the i the concept of patchwork and people not knowing when they go from one district to another and expecting something. Is it possibility if there's a patchwork or District 12 goes alone, that we could be fiscally liable for, uh, accidents or things like that? Or that any of the other districts might be fiscally liable if there is an accident? What do you mean? If there's an accident? You mean because one has the reflectors and the other doesn't Basically, yes. I mean, yes, there's a potential, again, you know, keep in mind that you can be sued at any time by anyone for anything. It doesn't mean that it has merit. Um, so I guess we'd have to deal with that sort of thing on a case by case basis. But the fact that you choose to do it shouldn't be a reason for liability for the district. Okay. Okay. Thank you. Thank you. Any other comments? Is that all? Good? Good discussion. Moving on to new business approval of the minutes. You need a motion? I'm just making Sure you didn't have any more audience comments. I'm sorry. At this time, is there any more audience comments? If not, we will move on. Thank you. New business approve of the minutes for February 13th. So move second. All in favor? Aye. Aye. Adoption of the resolution 2025 fiscal budget 20 24 25 Budget Amendment? Yes, sir. Ms. Brandy Cook will present this item. Good morning, Brandy Cook budget. I'm here today to request approval of resolution 2025 dash zero five to amend your fiscal year 24 25. Budget Apologies. Um, as you know, hurricane Milton made landfall, um, earlier this fiscal year. As a result, the district has incurred $64,347 and 35 cents of invoices for monitoring and removal of debris within your service area. So attached is resolution 20 25 0 5 to amend the fiscal year 24 25 budget with additional funds for $64,348 with the anticipation of FEMA reimbursement to the district, uh, which has been applied for the request to amend the 24 25 budget was reviewed by the district manager and staff. And at this time, staff does recommend to adopt resolution, uh, to amend your budget. And I'm here if there's any questions. Does the board have any questions at, on this time? On that, do I have a motion to approve? I so move. Do I have a second? I'll second. All all in favor? Aye. Thank you. Thank you. Anybody gonna be left in Washington? Item C, purchasing 2024 P oh 18. Good morning Board, Emily Morrison purchasing. Today I am requesting approval of Amendment one for agreement 24 p dash zero 18 with SSS down to Earth Opco for landscapes and irrigation. Maintenance service to this agreement includes landscape and irrigation maintenance within Group B of the RFP, which is a portion that included areas belonging to District 12. As new areas are inspected and adjustments to service needs are identified, it becomes necessary to amend the agreement to reflect these changes as detailed in Exhibit A. Amendment one to the agreement reflects the addition removal and or updates to various areas resulting in an increase of $35,996 and 40 cents. All of their terms and conditions will remain the same. And staff is requesting approval of Amendment one for agreement 24 p dash 0 1 8 with down to Earth opco for landscape and irrigation maintenance. And myself and staff are here. If you have any questions. I, I, I got a question. Can, can someone, because I, I, I looked at Exhibit A. Okay. And I know generally what it says. I see red numbers and black numbers, and I see extensions to Marsh Bend and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. Mm-hmm. Marsh Band has, has a lot of red numbers. Uh, so can anybody give me an overview in terms of what, what we're doing here? Mm-hmm. I know we're amending it, but why? And what are we increasing, uh, coverage or are we what happened? Yes. The red numbers that indicate areas or quantities that are being removed. And if they're in black, then their additions. Um, Ryan May be able to speak a little more to this, but I believe some of the areas had just beds that were probably changed out from what I can see. So they may have been removing one type of plant or product and replacing it with another. And then there were also areas included that were added that were not currently there. And there was an area that was also removed. So this is just a reallocation? Yes. No, it's an increase. Yes. An increase. Well, but I meant An increase because of reallocation, Because of change, a change in The process. Partially It takes more on this street than it is on the street that you didn't have to do or whatever. Partially, yes. Okay. That's what it looks like. Mm-hmm. That's what, Did that answer your question? Or, And what that is? What, how much more? $35,996 and 40 cents annually. That's all I have. Do you still have more concerns? No. Well, I'll make the motion. Reluctantly. $35,000 is not chump change. And I have no way, and I have to trust staff that this is, you know, something that is necessary and proper. Uh, it seems that a pretty large number just to, you know, redo things that, uh, we spend a lot of money on to do to begin with. But I'll, I'll make, I'll make the motion, uh, with the caveat that, uh, we, for the future, we need a little better understanding of why and how and where A better break a breakdown of the, what they're doing. Well, exhibit a, exhibit A kind of gives it, uh, it, but it doesn't really tell me, for example, uh, which, which roundabout and what we're doing there now. I've noticed that, and I, and I said this a couple meetings ago, that the flowers have been beautiful this year. It really popped, you know, and the new ones look great. Uh, and I can sense that some a areas have been added for flowering, uh, in, uh, in, in, in the roundabouts. I know that, you know, down here on South Marsh, uh, where I am, Corbin, nothing's been done there. Those are just, you know, same, there are no flowers in, in the center to speak. I mean, there are some, but in other areas, you know, to go all the way around. So I, I, I guess that that's part of the reason for this, because I se I sense that, you know, it's like anything else, you know? Yeah, it looks great. Let's, let's do the other ones. Uh, and that type of thing. So I'm just kind of curious in the future that I'd like to have a little better understanding. 'cause I couldn't really tell, you know, from the, uh, the exhibit itself, uh, where we're doing it and what areas, I mean generally, but more specifically, again, So there Were, um, I don't have the exhibit actually in front of me in that up there is a little large. I see. But I know that there were, I want to say maybe three areas added with this one. There were, um, The two villas, red Bud and Red Bud and Sugarberry Villas were added. Um, and then if, if you look, when you're going through it has the exact, um, dunna loop, rust away, the entry at hammock. Um, so it shows in there the different area, locations. And then sometimes when things come over, it will be designated as thought or turf. And then when we actually get out there and start realizing, okay, that's not turf, that's actually a rock bed that has, you know, different plantings in it. So this is looking at that and, and adding areas in as they're turned over, or looking at again, when it, when it came over, we put it in the specs, the sod. But when you look at it, it really wasn't sod it was a mulch bit. Yeah. So the, the costs are different. It's just kind of a cleanup. And in the newer district areas, this happens. The, even surprisingly, all of a sudden a district that's 30 years old will have something like this. Yeah. And I mean, but this, this, this came about because we decided that there was some problem. Or did the landscaper say, you know, this, we need to replace this because okay, X, Y, z, It, it could be either one. Yeah, sometimes it just, it was just incorrect. So it's not that we changed it, it was just when we wrote the specs, we wrote them as sod, but when they went out, they were like, this is not sod, this is something else. So we, we had to fix it. It could be an area where we're realizing that SOD doesn't grow because it's always wet. So we decided to change it into, you know, rocks or, or something different because we're not gonna keep replacing something that it's impossible for it to grow there. So it, it could be one of many different things. And you're right, $30,000 isn't chump change. It certainly is a significant amount of money, but when you look at the overall contract amount, it is pretty minor compared to your overall landscaping contract amount. Yeah. It's roughly 35,000 out. Just short of a million dollars. Yeah. Correct. No, and, and I, and I understand that it's like every ion used to say, you know, a billion here and a billion there, please, you're talking some real money. So, um, what, what I, I, I appreciate what you're saying. I think it's justified, but I, I would prefer, uh, 'cause this will come up again. I, I, so I just wanna make sure what, what, what more do we need to provide you that time? Well, uh, the a better maybe, uh, exhibit A saying, for example, I can't see it from here. Uh, that, uh, you have a roundabout that, uh, okay. Say for exa
