FOURTH ORDER OF BUSINESS: Public Hearings 4.A. Motion to adopt Resolution 2026-06 amending and restating Chapter II of the District’s Rule to Bring About Deed Compliance A. Review of Resolution 2026-06 amending and restating Chapter II of the District’s Rule to Bring About Deed Compliance Mr. Armstrong advised that the Village Center Community Development District (VCCDD) Board entered into Letters of Engagement with Hearing Officers for Deed Compliance and Architectural Review. Specific to the ARHO, the agreement provides that the authority to approve or deny exterior modifications to the residential home and/or homesite based on the District’s Adopted Rule and AR Manual would be made by the ARHO. This method of review of architectural review modification applications is currently being utilized by Districts 6 and 11 - 16. At the May 8, 2026 meeting, the Board authorized the publication of the District's intent to amend and restate Chapter II of its Rule to Bring About Deed Compliance to designate the District’s utilization of the ARHO for the review of architectural review modification applications submitted by District 1 residents per the District’s adopted Rule, Standards and AR Manual. Additionally, the amendment to the Rule will also provide updates to the

VCDD No. 1 – Meeting Minutes July 10, 2026 Page 4 Standards to further clarify requirements related to nuisance, landscape lighting, exterior lighting, seasonal displays and flagpoles. B. Open Public Hearing Chair Hyder opened the Public Hearing at 8:14 a.m. Steven Stone, Village of Rio Grande and President of the Villa De Laguna West Homeowners Association, inquired if lighting installed on a resident's rear fence or LED lighting installed in soffits would constitute a deed restriction violation. Mr. Armstrong stated that lighting is not allowed to be attached to a wall or fence. The proposed amendments specify that exterior lighting may not flash, chase, rotate, change colors, or strobe, except for seasonal displays during permitted seasonal periods. If a resident has an excessively bright exterior lights, Staff would inspect the property to determine whether it complies with the rules. Carrie Duckett, Deputy District Manager, clarified that the deed restrictions for villa units do not contain the restriction that addresses exterior lighting and advised that the proposed Rule amendment only applies to home units whose deed restrictions include the nuisance lighting provisions. Mark Brionez, District Counsel, suggested that residents report any concerns to Community Standards so that Staff can determine if a deed restriction violation exists. C. Close Public Hearing Chair Hyder closed the Public Hearing at 8:20 a.m. D. Board Discussion/Termination On MOTION by Brian Miller, seconded by Mike Goodman, the Board adopted Resolution 2026-06 amending and restating Chapter II of the District’s Rule to Bring About Deed Compliance, as provided herein and in accordance with the documents included effective July 10, 2026. 4.B.

Chair Hyder requested an update on the impact the mowing of the preserve had on the wildlife. Mr. Harris advised that there was no impact on the wildlife. Initially the Southwest Florida Water Management District (SWFWMD) had agreed to allow the preserve to grow back naturally, but since that time the District received a demand letter requiring that a plan for the preserve be submitted. Mr. Harris advised that plan that will be submitted to SWFWMD will include Breedlove, Dennis & Associates (BDA), the District’s Environmental Consultant, completing monitoring of the preserve for a one-year period with updates provided to SWFWMD about the regrowth progress. Mr. Harris advised that if SWFWMD determines that additional work or planting is necessary the contractor will be responsible for the costs.

Blocker Rocky Hyder Secretary Chair

I want to bring that up now is after our Pledge of Allegiance, we observe a moment of silence, which is just another one of the many contributions that Carl made to our community. So if you will remember his family and friends during that moment of silence. And at this time, we will stand for the Pledge of Allegiance. I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. Thank you. Carl was the very first resident member of the CDD One board, and so I think it's appropriate that we at least honor his time of service here. So, all right, at this point in time, we'd like to welcome our meeting attendees. If there's anyone that has something you want to address the board with, please come to the podium, give us your name and address for the record, and give us your comments. Okay. Seeing none, hearing none, we'll move along. On consent agenda, we are going to pull item B of the architectural review manual for the new business, but we will entertain a motion to approve the minutes from the last meeting. I move approval of the June 12th minutes. I have a motion. Second. Motion and second on the floor. Further discussion? All in favor say aye. Aye. Any opposed? Carries unanimously. All right. Let's talk about the architectural review manual modifications. We have Matt Armstrong here to take us through that. Good morning, board. Matt Armstrong with Community Standards. So yes, thank you for pulling from the consents. We had received an email from Supervisor Miller, and I just wanted to address some of the questions before we went through the approval process to make sure we were all on the same page and we were good to go. There were just some minor things that I just wanted to make sure that I understood also what he was requesting or seeking. And then if everyone's happy, we can approve as amended if there's any changes to it, or we can always bring it back next month if you prefer to do that as well. Okay. First thing was just a spelling thing for complementing. We'll make that adjustment. Then there was a question for page 12, a clarification on ARCA approval for coatings and installing pavers on driveways. That we will remove or redact the addition that you will see on page 12 where it says, "Unless there is an active decompliance violation on the property." That should only be if you don't have already an architectural approval process in place, whereas you do. Many other districts, actually, there's only three districts that require ARC approval for driveways. You are one of those three. Everyone else does not. So that kind of caused some conflict when someone did have a violation on their property for a very bright and vibrant driveway. Mm-hmm. So we would make them ask them to go through the ARC process via that methodology. So we are going to make sure that that is stricken through. The next one was page 13, to verify a date from either April 6th or April 8th. That's for a petition process on a patio villa. I just need to go check and see if the petition was approved on the previous Wednesday and then became active on that Monday, or if the 6th versus the 8th was just transposed, then we'll make sure that it's that 8th showing or that Wednesday that it was done. So we're checking on that. Okay. That's a simple thing. Then there was a question about clarification on page number 21 for the garage doors. And so that one I would ask Mr. Miller, what were you questioning with that one? It was just the verbiage. The architectural approval is not required to install or remove garage door glass inserts, decorative panel, or a garage door screen. Okay. What- I can't see that up there. Would you de- Architectural approval is not required for garage door or screen modifications to install- Correct ... or remove glass. And then the architectural approval is also not required to paint the garage door, provided that the color is within the approved hue range of the home base or trim. Mm-hmm. Hot neon colors, bright colors are not permitted. And then the ARC approval is required for any garage door modification that changes the height and width of the garage door opening. Yes, sir. Okay. It was just a little bit, the verbiage was just different. Okay, just with the verbiage itself? Yes. Okay. I'll take a look at that. And then for page 27, clarification on the landscape lighting. If I'm not mistaken, you're just taking our largest bullet point number two and expanding it into two bullet points, just kind of creating its own standalone for... So it was, "All lighting must be directed downward or shielded as to not create a nuisance glare or disturbance to neighboring properties or common areas. Notwithstanding the foregoing, low voltage landscape lighting used solely to illuminate trees, flagpoles, and architectural features of the home may be directed upward, provided it is a low intensity." So it looks like you just broke that one out into two bullet points versus just having it as one collective bullet point. It seemed to flow smoother. Okay. I just wanted to bring that to your attention and, you can make that final determination, but it just seemed to flow smoother. Okay. It's not a problem. And then page 37, clarification on tree removal. What specific was there on page 37 about tree removal? It just ended with the section in the code, the Florida Statute. I think it added just a little more clarity by governing the pruning, trimming, and removal of certain trees on residential properties. That was just taken out of the statute. Okay. Instead of it just being- ARC ... I'm not nitpicking, but just wanted to clarify that. It expands upon it. So what we'll do is, instead of approving it today, we'll make these modifications, and we'll bring it back to you in August and make those little tweaks, and then we can bring it back for approval at your August meeting. Yes. Did you see page 32? There was- Tesla. Yes. I think we did Tesla. Yeah. But yes. So if everyone's good, we'll- Is that consensus of the board, we'll just come back with it in August and approve those changes? All right. I think that's what we have, Matt. That works for me. That works. Thank you. Thank you, sir. Thank you. Okay. Now we have the release from the seventh amended Interlocal Agreement for the Architectural Review Committee agenda request, and I think Matt's going to address that as well. So yeah. Hello again. Matt Armstrong, Community Standards. So, District 1 had requested to take a look at utilizing the architectural review hearing officer as an opportunity to review their architectural review applications. In order to do so, District 1 is a party to the seventh amended Interlocal Agreement for the Architectural Review Committee with the other districts. And in order to be released from that agreement, there is an exhibit that all the numbered districts sign to remove a district from the agreement. District 6, back in October 1st of 2025, was the first entity to do so, and all the numbered districts had agreed to it. So today, this item is essentially you agreeing to release yourself from that agreement and would be a signature on the Exhibit A, as attached, for your removal from that agreement where you would participate on the Architectural Review Committee. Okay. So at our last meeting, we had the discussion regarding a hearing officer for architectural review, and we had consensus from the board at that point in time to proceed with that. And what we're proposing here is that we release ourself from being a member of that and proceed on with the review officer. So, any discussion? All right. I'll entertain a motion. All right. I move we approve the release of Community Development District number 1 from the current agreement for the Architectural Review Committee effective July 20th, 2026. I have a motion and a second on the floor. Further discussion? Hearing none, all in favor say aye. Aye. Any opposed? Motion carries unanimously. Thank you. All right. The next thing on our agenda is a public hearing to adopt the Resolution 2026-06 amending and restating Chapter 2 of the district's rule to bring about deed compliance. And Matt Armstrong is continuing to stay at the podium to work us through this as well. So, at this time, we'll let you review it, and then we'll have our public hearing. Yes. Good morning, board. Matt Armstrong again, Community Standards. So at the November 10th, 2021 board meeting, the Village Center Community Development District approved letters of engagement with the hearing officers for deed compliance and architectural review. Specific to the architectural review hearing officer, the agreement provides that the authority to approve or deny exterior modifications to the residential home and/or home site based on the district's adopted rule and ARC manual would be made by the architectural review hearing officer. The method of review for the ARC application is currently being utilized within the boundaries of Village Community Development District 6 and 11 through 16. At your May 8th, 2026 board meeting, the Board of Supervisors authorized the publication of the district's intent to amend and restate Chapter 2 of its rule to bring about deed compliance. I want to go over some of the changes that were being recommended because I believe there are a few modifications to our first initial submission to you. And those items, let me go to the correct attachment. There we go. So some of the just small tweaks were, under exterior lighting, we added an italic area that said, "Please refer to the deed restrictions specific to your property to determine any regulations pertaining to exterior lighting." The reason for that is that not all units within District 1 have rules pertaining to lighting. So we wanted to make it very clear that although it's here in the standards, please, we're going to review your deed restrictions to make sure that there's actually a rule there that this attaches to and can be enforced. Okay. Going through again, we already had nuisance. Underneath seasonal displays, we added a bullet that says, "Only one observance may be displayed at a time." So you can't have dual holidays going simultaneously. So we don't want to see Easter and St. Patrick's Day on your lawn at the same time. Okay. Choose one holiday to observe at a time, and that's what we're requesting for that one. Okay. Also, we added a language that said that for seasonal displays What you have on your property cannot supersede any rule or regulation within the deed restrictions or the architectural review manual. And as an example, if you have in your architectural review manual, you're permitted to have three flagpoles on your property. So you can have one attached to the home, you can have your architectural approved application one, and then you can have the one allowed by Florida statute that has the American flag, first responder flag, service member flag. We should not see 30 flagpoles all over your property displaying various flags. Your decoration should not supersede any given rule that you currently have in place for your architectural process or your deed compliance process. So that's just one example, but it goes for anything that you would have within your district. Okay. And I believe those were the two big things that were just added to the overall. Oh, and the lighting. We did add the language with the lighting, about it needing to be facing, if you have landscape lighting for trees, it can be upward but not shining and directed toward your neighbor's property or on your home. Got it. But you can't have a landscape light that points up towards a tree. Okay. Other than that, I do recommend the approval of Resolution 2026-06, amending and restating Chapter 2 of the district's rule to bring about deed compliance. Okay. At this time, we'll open a public hearing regarding the adoption of Resolution 2026-06, amending and restating Chapter 2 of the district's rule to bring about deed compliance with those adjustments that we've just heard about. Would anyone like to speak regarding the adjustments to our rules for deed compliance on external deed restrictions? Yes, sir. Please step to the podium, give us your name and address for the record and your comments. My name's Steven Stone. I live at 1503 Martinez Drive. I'm the president of the Villa de Laguna West Homeowners Association. My apologies for coming in late, I got delayed. Okay. The lighting, does that cover people putting lights in their soffits? I know that it's a restriction to how long holiday lighting can stay up. Is that correct? Yes, sir. There is. Please answer it. If there is a rule in the deed restrictions that states that seasonal displays are not to exceed 30 days in duration, then yes, that would fall underneath if you have seasonal lighting, if you want to hang Christmas lights and things like that. So when people have, say, lighting on their back fence and it's continual every single night, is that a violation of deed restrictions? When we receive a complaint, we would take a look to see what the deed restrictions state. It's my understanding that nothing's permitted to be attached to a wall or fence. So, the deed restrictions specifically state if you have the rule, that lighting must be attached to the home. So we would take a look, and if we're not able to see said violation, we would work with the homeowner if they can help provide pictures of that location, especially if it's behind a villa wall where we're not able to view it. We would take a look at it and review the deed restrictions to see if a violation exists. So then along the same lines, lighting restrictions, say in the soffits. I've seen people that put LED lights that change colors and things like that in their soffits. In one case, there's a house in Hacienda Villas where they put lights every three feet into the soffit. So it looks like a carnival. Would that be a violation of the deed restriction? If there is a lighting rule, no, it would not be. So in the standards that we are requesting today for the board to approve, we do have language in for exterior lighting that says, "Lighting shall not include flashing, chasing, strobing, rotating, or color-changing effects except during approved seasonal display periods." So the existence of a light, if it's a colored light, it would be an issue if it was casting, and it's so bright that it's illuminating other properties around it, and if it was dancing, chasing, strobing, and changing colors. Otherwise, just the existence of the light itself would not be a violation, and that would be something that staff would go out after hours and take a look at and see what's going on. Okay. Mr. Armstrong, this is a villa unit, I believe, that you're asking about. It is. Do we have lighting restrictions in the villa units? We do not have it in the villa units, no. So that is something that during our research for this standards update, we found that the deed restrictions are pretty consistent throughout the villages and that home units have the nuisance lighting provisions, but villa units do not. So there is nothing in the deed restrictions for villas that say you can't have nuisance lighting. So we are, when it comes to these standards, they are going to apply to, as Mr. Armstrong said, every unit that has the lighting provision. But unfortunately, the villa units do not have that lighting provision. And as you know, we can't create new restrictions, so this is not going to be enforceable when it comes to villa units. So Mr. Stone, because we do not have a existing external deed restriction regarding exterior lighting in villa units, we cannot create one. The developer has restricted us from providing new rules about things that weren't already included in deed restrictions. So would that include fences? No, we can look at that because I believe that as Mr. Armstrong said, there is a restriction that says nothing can be attached to walls or fences, and it says nothing. So that's something that he will look at. Absolutely. And I think the easiest way to handle all these questions is if there's concerns, there should be a call made to community standards and something reported, so that they can investigate and determine whether there's a potential violation or not. Again, at this point in time, we're looking at the rule to decide whether it's something that the district wants to proceed with. The rule regarding lighting, as Mr. Armstrong mentioned, it's applicable in different ways depending on the type of property it is. It's essentially there to prevent property owners from having lighting that is a nuisance to their neighbors. That's including lighting, even if it's facing downward, if it's strobing, if it's flashing, that sort of thing. But if there's a particular concern, it should be reported and let community standards investigate. So, Mr. Stone, what I think we're saying is that you have a lot of specific questions that should be addressed to Mr. Armstrong in private instead of here- Right ... at a public meeting. Thank you, Your Honor. Okay. Thank you, sir. Appreciate it. All right. Any further comments regarding the public hearing on the deed restrictions? All right. Hearing none, we'll close the public hearing. And now we'll have discussion from the board. I think what's been proposed here is just our continual efforts to try to refine and adapt to changes in the world. And, so that's my comment on the proposal from the staff at this point in time. All right, we'll entertain a motion. We actually have a resolution. So if you look at the resolution. Yes, sir. I move we adopt resolution 2026-06, amending and restating Chapter Two, the district's rule governing deed compliance, and the amended and restated Chapter Two rule to take effect on July 10th, 2026. All right. We have a motion on the floor. Do we have a second? Second. We have a motion and a second. Any further discussion? Hearing none, all in favor say aye. Aye. Aye. Any opposed? Motion carries unanimously. Thank you, board. Thank you, Matt. Okay, the hearing case that was on our agenda has been resolved and taken off the agenda, so we no longer have that. So we'll move along to old business. Yes, sir. The first item on old business is Morris Boulevard safety concerns. Staff doesn't have an update to this, but I will turn it back over to the board for discussion. All right. So, I think you saw it toward the end of the agenda under supervisor comments, where Supervisor Goodwin has some ideas and a proposal. So let's go ahead and talk about that now and move that up on the agenda since we're talking about it. Great. So as you recall, last time I reached out to the county to find out how they do their design work, and I got a response back that basically said they follow the Florida Department of Transportation for all their standard details. Okay. So with that in my pocket, I developed a letter that I want to send out under signature of the supervisor, but I want to get your approval for it. So I'd like to go ahead and read that letter in. And the intent of this letter is, one place I think that we can make safety improvements, and I've had this happen to me, is you're going down Morris and somebody pulls into the lane, and your choices are run into them or pull into the traffic. And if you look at where North Morris hits crossroads, there's nothing to tell you there's a multi-motor path there at all. So I found something nice that we may be able to suggest. So let me read this letter. It's basically to Matthew Toddlock, and he's the assistant public works director for planning design. And it says, "Matt, thank you for your response to the issues of North Morris Boulevard. The intention of this letter is to facilitate a potential reduction in vehicular accidents on North Morris Boulevard. As you know, this particular segment of this road, Morris Boulevard, between 27 and 441 and 466, is the only major road in the villages where vehicular traffic, golf carts, bicycles, and pedestrians share the same roadway. An earlier design shortfall has been corrected in later designs. In particular, the challenge is vehicle incursions from side roads into the multimodal path at intersections with Morris. All too often, vehicles pull into a multimodal path and stop to gain a better view of incoming traffic. This has led to multiple accidents between users of the multimodal path and vehicles pulling into the pathway, not yielding right of way. A suggestion for your consideration is to clearly mark the multimodal path at these intersections or some other pavement markings as shown in example FDOT design manual, topic number 625.00002." Do we have that to put up, Carrie? The picture? Yeah, the picture. Yes, sir. Under supervisor. Yeah, it's all the way down the bottom. And you see this if you've ever been to St. Pete, all the intersections are marked that way. If you're going to the beaches, you go out where 44 hits 4, they've done the same thing. They've marked. So what the intent here is to take the multimodal path, which has no markings at all, and put markings on it. So a person says, "Oh, I really should not pull in there and stop." That's the intent of this letter. So that's what FDOT 625.00002 looks like. So it's in your design manual. And So currently, going back to the letter, it says, "Currently, one would be hard-pressed to find any indication that the multimodal path exists at these intersections." Additionally, and I've got another idea here, and this was truly a cut and paste where I took pictures, got out the Elmer's glue, and put it together. But having signs that tell people, "You should stop here and not pull into the intersection." You see these very often where there are pedestrian walkways. But these are ideas to be suggested. So my last paragraph basically states, "As a professional engineer, we take seriously the responsibility not only for the quality of the work we do, but safety." And where that's important is if you have a professional engineering license, which I've had, your number one goal is safety. Safety. So to point out to them, "You have a potential safety problem here. As a professional engineer, if you're not addressing it, you really ought to take a look." So what I'd like to do, with my supervisors' approval, is go ahead and move this letter forward. But my intent is not to email it to them. It's to set up a meeting because I've learned eyeball works better, and email them just the day of the meeting. Okay. And to see if they're open to maybe doing this.

I certainly appreciate your efforts, and I think that's a very unique idea for The Villages application, but it certainly seems to be very effective because most of us have seen this type of application in other cities, and it seems to work very well.

We have a full consensus. Great. Thank you. So, thank you, sir. And staff, you all right? Absolutely. I was just going to offer, we are happy to help facilitate that meeting if you would like us to or need us to. So if you, at
