MINUTES OF MEETING LAKE ASHTON
COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT

The regular meeting of the Board of Supervisors of the Lake Ashton Community Development District was held on Monday, July 15, 2024 at 9:00 a.m. at the Lake Ashton Clubhouse Ballroom, 4141 Ashton Club Drive, Lake Wales, FL.
Present and constituting a quorum were:

Brenda VanSickle	Chairperson
Mike Costello	Vice Chairman
Steve Realmuto	Assistant Secretary
Debbie Landgrebe	Assistant Secretary Also present were:
Jill Burns	District Manager, GMS
Jan Carpenter	Latham Luna, District Counsel
Garrett Posten	District Engineer, Rayl Engineering
Matt Fisher	Operations Manager
Christine Wells	Community Director
José Lopez	Yellowstone Landscaping

The following is a summary of the discussions and actions taken at the July 15, 2024 Lake Ashton Community Development District Board of Supervisors meeting.

FIRST ORDER OF BUSINESS	Roll Call and Pledge of Allegiance
Ms. Burns called the meeting to order at 9:00 a.m., called roll, and the pledge of allegiance was recited. Four Supervisors were present in person constituting a quorum.

SECOND ORDER OF BUSINESS	Approval of Meeting Agenda
Ms. Burns asked for any comments on the agenda. Ms. VanSickle requested to move 7E up after Engineer’s Report. Ms. Landgrebe requested to add an item pertaining to the storage units and Dunmore Road.

On MOTION by Ms. Landgrebe, seconded by Ms. VanSickle, with all in favor, the Meeting Agenda, was approved 4-0 as amended.

THIRD ORDER OF BUSINESS	Public Comments on Specific Items
on the Agenda (the District Manager will read any questions or comments received from members of the public in advance of the meeting)
Ms. Burns opened the public comment period. Ms. Burns noted they have a separate public hearing today on the budget that comes in the middle of the agenda.
Ms. Burns received an email public comment that was requested to be read from Gary Sfeir (4468 Waterford Drive). Mr. Sfeir stated, “Over the past year, I have communicated with several Board members and Christine Wells that the audio for the Zoom calls is absolutely terrible. You may recall Lloyd making the same comment in the CDD meeting 3 or 4 months ago. I would like to express my support to having the Lake Ashton I CDD Board of Supervisors approve the budget line item for a new audio system so the monthly zoom calls are clear and the voices are understandable. I frequently attend the CDDII monthly calls via Zoom and I have never had an issue listening to their Board of Supervisor meetings. Thank you. Gary Sfeir 4468 Waterford Drive”
Marti Schmidt (4404 Ventana) commented that she is concerned about going forward with the reciprocal easement contract, which to her sounds like a forever deal. She stated item six talks about permitted users and it discusses a non-resident member in the District’s rules, but there is no definition of who a non-resident member would be. She suggested the reciprocal easement contract be reviewed. She asked why they were putting something in there permanently and asked if they could have a lease agreement with them.
Mr. Realmuto responded to Mr. Sfeir’s comment on the Zoom audio and stated he 100% supports improving the audio for Zoom calls so residents can hear the Board of Supervisors meetings. He noted they discussed this at many meetings before. He also noted that reviewing the quote for $57,000 did not include a single line item that would improve the audio on the Zoom calls.
Mr. Sfeir (4468 Waterford Drive) commented that he can hear clear today and he wanted to thank those who fixed the equipment.

FOURTH ORDER OF BUSINESS	Organizational Matters
A. Discussion Regarding Appointment to Vacant Board Seat #1 (tabled from June 17, 2024 Meeting Agenda)
Mr. Realmuto moved to appoint Greg Ulrich to the vacant seat. He explained that his reasons were that the Florida statutes that governs CDDs, Section 190, states “if, during the term the office, a vacancy occurs, the remaining members of the Board shall fill the vacancy by an appointment for the remainder of the unexpired term.” He expressed his belief that the community is best served by a full complement of five Board members. Ms. VanSickle commended Mr. Ulrich for stepping up and running for this seat.
She stated Mr. Ulrich will be seated in November. She noted her concern was that every decision they make has an impact and there are two sides to every story. She also noted a concern expressed to her that if they go ahead with this, they could impact the other elections. She stated she doesn’t want to be accused of doing anything that could impact or even be seen as impacting. Hearing no second to Mr. Realmuto’s motion, the motion dies.

FIFTH ORDER OF BUSINESS	Consideration of Minutes from the
June 17, 2024 Board of Supervisors Meeting
Ms. VanSickle presented the June 17, 2024 Board of Supervisors meeting minutes. She asked for any comments or changes. Ms. VanSickle sent Ms. Burns a couple minor details. Ms. Burns noted they received a couple of minor comments from Supervisors that will be incorporated in the signed version. Mr. Realmuto noted a correction on page six, fourth line down, where it has “required”, but should be “acquired”.

On MOTION by Ms. Landgrebe, seconded by Mr. Costello, with all in favor, the Minutes from the June 17, 2024 Board of Supervisors Meeting, were approved 4-0 as amended.

SIXTH ORDER OF BUSINESS	Engineering Report
Mr. Posten presented the Engineering Report to the Board. He stated they had a couple of projects that were completed, the Stone Creek Loop inlet repair, the flume on Hole #4, and the field work for the PCI Index update and they will have a report together

before the next meeting. He reported two projects that they have been working on. One is the City of Lake Wales sanitary sewer inspection, but they have not been responsive. He explained that they have moved up to the next level and reached out to the assistant city manager, but she is out of office and will be back tomorrow. He stated if they don’t hear something from her, they have been coordinating with Brenda and they will keep escalating it until they get a response from the city. Ms. VanSickle stated she has no problem making phone calls. Mr. Posten is going to follow-up tomorrow. Mr. Posten stated the other project they have been working on is the inlets on Dunmore. They have coordinated with a few contractors. They have a quote that is pending and it’s going to be to go in to the inlets, drain the water out of the pipes, possibly inject the hydraulics in it from the inside once they find where the infiltration is coming from. When they get the quote back, they will come back to the Board with recommendations on how to move forward.

A. Storage & Dunmore
*Item A was added to agenda by Ms. Landgrebe.
Ms. Landgrebe noted the trench is not repaired and it is getting larger on both sides. She added she has saw a golf cart kind of tip as they go over it. Ms. Carpenter stated they reached out to the developer last week and Ms. Wells reached out as well. She explained that they would be contacting their engineer to get that worked out. Mr. Costello stated he and Ms. Wells spoke to them while they were doing the work there and they told them that when it’s repaired, they expected it to be repaired in the same condition it was found in. He noted they apparently got the message; they just didn’t pay attention to it. Ms. Landgrebe stated this is not an example of a good neighbor and now they want them to sign an easement. It was noted that this needs repairs immediately. Ms. Landgrebe asked if a resident gets injured through their bike falling or golf cart or vehicle damaged, what recourse do they have. Ms. Carpenter responded that they would come to the CDD and the CDD would go back to them and their contractor. Ms. Landgrebe asked if they could sue them now for not repairing it. Ms. Carpenter responded that she just got the message last week that they have not responded, their attorney responded immediately and got the information, and they asked them Friday afternoon to contact the

engineer. She recommended giving them a day to see if they contact and she will call the attorney again to tell them that she was advised today that this is dangerous and needs to be fixed immediately. Mr. Posten stated they have not heard from them yet.

E. Discussion/Consideration of Draft Reciprocal Easement Agreement
*Item 7E, was moved up and taken out of order.
Ms. Carpenter provided a history over the past month stating they have probably had eight drafts of this. They went back and forth with their counsel and had a number of conference calls. There are two issues Ms. Carpenter addressed to make sure the Board is comfortable with. She explained that they idea is that they have a reciprocal easement meaning they get access to their entire parcel, which is the pathway and the part of the pond.
Ms. Carpenter addressed the comment earlier stating the non-resident users are people who have paid Lake Ashton the fee to be able to use all the amenities in Lake Ashton. She explained that the people that would use the boat dock would be Lake Ashton residents, Lake Ashton II residents and people who have paid the fee to use the amenities of Lake Ashton I or II.
Mr. Carpenter noted the developer requested saying if they don’t have at least 50% of the docks used by those people, they wanted to have access to outside users because they need to break even on their expenses, which is the one change they asked for. She noted hopefully there will be enough Lake Ashton people that will want to use the dock that it will not be an issue, but they need to have access if at least 50% of the boat slips are not used because they have to be able to pay back the cost that it makes. She noted the second issue is people want access to the dock itself, which they said was fine, but they want everyone to understand clearly that when they build the boat dock, they will have a gate for the actual slip access because those people will be paying for that access. There will be a portion of the dock that is gated off for the people that are paying for that cost. Ms. VanSickle asked if residents with a boat that don’t purchase or rent a boat slip can still have access to the boat ramp to put a boat into the lake. Ms. Carpenter responded yes. Ms. Landgrebe reminded everyone that so far they have not showed themselves to be good neighbors. She agreed that they should lease as opposed to an easement. She

also asked if they could go back to the Joint Amenity policy and increase non-member resident fees. Ms. Carpenter stated that they feel that they are adding an amenity for the Lake Ashton residents, and they feel that this is an amenity that residents should be happy about. She also stated that it gives them access to that lake and the pathway that is currently being used by the public, which could be shut off to the public. She noted she got the impression that this is the best they are going to do. She stated if they lease to them, then they get into the issue of taxes because it would be a private use. They would have to get into issues of bond counsel opinion not only on taxes, on the use of that small portion of the conservation land, if there are any bond funds used for it. She stated that a lease of government property for private use is a big deal and would take a lot of issues. She noted in this case, they are doing kind of a swap where they are each using the other portion of approximately the same value.
Mr. Realmuto addressed comments with the first one being a comment made by Ms. Schmidt on the non-resident user not being defined. He explained that non-resident user is defined in the Joint Amenity policy. He further explained that it is not something that is optional, they are required to do that. He stated the only question is what they would legally be able to charge for it. The other point he made was that this is about more than residents’ access to the boat dock. He noted their team has done a great job in getting that codified in this easement agreement. He explained it’s about access from the road nearby to the cart path and the ponds. He noted one concern in some of the phrases including the top of the second page of the easement agreement where it refers to unpaved pathways/roadways. He stated they want to do whatever they can to ensure that this includes access to the paved golfcart path. Ms. Carpenter responded she doesn’t think that will be a problem.

On MOTION by Ms. VanSickle, seconded by Mr. Realmuto, with Ms. VanSickle, Mr. Realmuto, Mr. Costello in favor and Ms. Landgrebe opposed, the Reciprocal Easement Agreement, was approved 3-1 as amended.

Ms. Carpenter asked that if they do have a little change or two, the Chairman could approve those.

SEVENTH ORDER OF BUSINESS	New Business
Public Hearings
Public Hearing on the Adoption of the Fiscal Year 2024/2025 Budget
Ms. VanSickle asked to open the public hearing.

On MOTION by Ms. Landgrebe, seconded by Mr. Realmuto, with all in favor, Opening the Public Hearing, was approved 4- 0.

Public Comment
Ms. VanSickle opened the public comment period.
Ms. Schmidt (4404 Ventana) commented that on the budget, she couldn’t get the proposed budget capital reserve fund amount to match up with the wheel of what they are going to do. She added the two numbers don’t match. She stated she has been in accounting all her life. She asked why doesn’t the wheel that is showing what these projects are going to be specifically matched to the line item that is in the budget. Secondly, she commented that the management letter for the review of the finances had a finding that the District inappropriately utilized budgeted capital reserve funds to mostly fund the deficit and the operations. She asked what the Board has put in place so that doesn’t happen again and how do the residents know that won’t happen again. She stated a budget is a budget and it doesn’t mean they spend all the money. She also commented that in the capital reserve fund it says, “golf course bridge maintenance, $30,000”. She noted maintenance is operation cost, not a capital improvement. She added that if they were replacing them totally, great, but if they are just adding boards or fixing them, they go to operations. She stated she is reading it and she thinks they are doing a great job, but she is concerned about how the money was spent the last time when they trimmed the budget for capital, they took out the dog park and they took out $57,000 for some audio-visual equipment. She asked if they were already in the process, is it going into this years, was it addressed this year. She thought the pet park was supposed to be 2025 and then all of a sudden she sees that they are redoing the pet parks. She is concerned about commingling of funds from each budgeted year and how the Board and staff is going to make sure that is prevented.

Ms. VanSickle thanked Ms. Schmidt stating that shows her that she read that very carefully. She explained that the pie chart in there is something that Mr. Realmuto did, and he will address that when they get to it. She noted that the suggestions of things to cut were Mr. Realmuto’s suggestions.
Ms. Burns asked to close the public hearing.

On MOTION by Ms. Landgrebe, seconded by Ms. VanSickle with all in favor, Closing the Public Hearing, was approved 4- 0.

Discussion Regarding Fiscal Year 2025 Budget Analysis Documents (requested by Supervisor Realmuto; back-up documentation provided by Supervisor Realmuto)
Proposed Fiscal Year 2025 General Fund Expenditures Chart
Proposed Fiscal Year 2025 Capital Project Fund Expenditures Chart
Lake Ashton CDD Cumulative Assessments Chart
Mr. Realmuto stated he submitted three things on this, and the capital project fund is the second one. He reviewed these in order. The first one is that residents always ask where the money goes. He explained that the budget is essentially divided into two pieces, the general fund that covers their operating expenses and most maintenance and the capital projects fund from which they fund new capital projects, major renovations, etc. He briefly reviewed the general fund stating the percentages haven’t changed much from year to year. The biggest notable increase the percentage of the pie is insurance from 3% to 4%, which has almost doubled in the last four years. Ms. Burns stated the only line items that changed in the budget since the Board approved the preliminary budget for the actual line items was the increase and that was based on the amount that they were provided from the insurance agent and that is because they went through and did an appraisal. She stated that the value of what they were insuring has been increased to reflect current values. She pointed out that is different from the regular insurance increases that they previously had based on percentages. She noted the largest portion of that was because of the appraisal that was done. Mr. Realmuto thanked Ms. Burns for pointing that out and responded that was actually a change from what they passed as the

proposed budget in May and the budget that is in this agenda packet. He added that allows him to address the comment the speaker made about discrepancies.
Mr. Realmuto addressed the comment about discrepancies stating he has the same deadline as everyone else for getting these in. These numbers were based off the proposed budget from May. Whereas the numbers in this agenda packet, he didn’t get until after this was submitted. He noted that probably accounts for the relatively small discrepancies. He said that Ms. Burns is telling them that insurance when up perhaps even more than what he has because he was basing it on the main numbers.
Mr. Realmuto pointed out the other significant thing in the pie chart that is new, which is the access control system. He explained that is something they are adding, so there is no percentage increase there, but that is an entirely new item. He noted they are projected to spend $128,000 less than they budgeted for. He pointed out that the take away is that the general fund is in good shape if they meet their projections. Ms. VanSickle stated they have discussed this budget for months and they were to the point of approving this budget. Mr. Realmuto stated he finished with the first item on the general fund, and he wants to address the next page.
Mr. Realmuto addressed the pie chart on the capital project fund expenses. He noted the capital projects fund is where they tend to overspend. He stated their big concern is with the proper funding of the capital projects fund, the funds are there when they need them. He addressed some discrepancies noted by Ms. Schmidt. He brought everyone’s attention to the total contingencies in capital projects. The first column is
$535,000 and it does defer from what is in the budget by under $2,000. He explained that is because it may have been revised, they changed the number or lots, or a number of other changes. He added that it is pretty close, and it certainly wouldn’t change any of the percentages they see there. He noted that what this represents is what was proposed for capital project fund expenditures as percentage terms, and it gives an idea. He noted the second column is not from the Board, it’s from him. The first column is what was approved in May for those as capital project. The second column is Mr. Realmuto’s suggestion for ways they can trim the expenditures because he believes they have a spending problem, not an assessment problem. He noted that by trimming the four highlighted items, the numbers show that they could save $105,000. He pointed out that this was just from the

FY 2025 budget. He went back and looked at what they could save by not spending everything that was allocated that they spent like originally the $170,000 allocated for their current fiscal year budget, FY 2024, to refurbish the ballroom. Currently they have spent $10,500 of that for the projector and the screen. Other than that, they can save
$160,000 by not moving ahead with that. He explained that means their expenditures, that are projected to be $530,000 this month from the capital projects fund, would go down. By not only that $160,000, but there are also other items in there that are pretty certain not to be done this fiscal year. They had $40,000 in there for potential acquisitions and $15,000 for a ramp to the reflection garden. He further explained that by simply cutting those, they would save over $215,000. If they add $215,000 to the $105,000 that is $320,000 in potential savings. He explained that it’s important to note that every $100 lot assessment increase on the 978 lots this year raises net revenue of $95,363. Based on that, he explained, he believes there is room for an assessment decrease, which is really what the bottom-line of this budget discussion comes to. He stated he has this in writing and will pass it out to Supervisors.
Mr. Costello noted one of the problems they have had all along is waiting and the price keeps going up. They do not have a spending problem and where Mr. Realmuto was coming along with that was beyond him. They have a problem with inflation that they continuously put a job aside and then when they turn around to go to do it, they end up spending anywhere from 33%-50% more in order to get the job done. He pointed out they have a responsibility to keep this community in the same shape they found it when they drove through the gate. He stated if they start doing stuff like this, the price of the houses are going to go in the garbage. He doesn’t want that to happen.
Ms. Landgrebe responded she agreed with Mr. Costello and added that this is what the problem has been with previous Boards, which is delay projects. She clarified that it was not this Board, and she told Mr. Realmuto she didn’t appreciate him continually accusing them of spending money. She explained that they spend the money to maintain the community. Mr. Costello stated they have an obligation to keep the community up.
Ms. VanSickle stated she remembers four years before she got back on the Board, every person on the Board had a job and Mr. Realmuto was the financial person. She explained that she stood at the podium and pleaded with the sitting Board to please put

a stop to the losses that the restaurant is doing, which was over $400,000. Mr. Realmuto responded that they lost less this month than they did last month, and he didn’t think they should terminate them. They lost over $400,000 and Mr. Realmuto is saying they have a spending problem. She added she will take responsibility because she was on the Board eight years prior, and they didn’t raise assessments. They were a new community then and they were balancing their budget and funding their reserves, but now they are an aging community. She noted that they were playing catch-up with what was done on a previous Board of which Mr. Realmuto was the financial advisory. Mr. Costello stated they have to spend money sometimes in order to make money. He also stated they have to spend money, so they don’t anticipate that when they do go to spend the money, that they are going to pay another 50% on what they budgeted. Ms. Landgrebe pointed out that the proposed budget doesn’t include inflation increases when they actually go out to bid things. Mr. Costello did agree that the $57,000 for a speaker and improvements, is a little excessive. He suggested maybe looking at rebidding that and seeing where it ends up.
Mr. Realmuto addressed the comments made by the other three Board members. He stated he was not in favor of letting anything go there. He believes they need to maintain their facilities to their high standards. His only point is that they don’t need to do it on an arbitrary schedule. He thinks they should do things when the conditions require that they be done. As far as inflation, one thing has changed and that was their funds that they have on reserve. He pointed out that they have been starting the years after the carry over transfer that they usually make in January with close to $1,000,00. He further explained that money earns interest, and it is projected to earn $25,000 in interest for Fiscal Year 2024. He added he wasn’t saying that will take care of all of the increase because things have gone up even more than that, but that offsets at least some of the more common inflation related things. He asked that the other Board members not misunderstand his position to be that they should let anything go. He clarified that they should maintain it when it needs to be maintained, but not just because they put it in a capital projects list. He stated he came up with $320,000 and he wasn’t saying some items shouldn’t be done. He noted it was clear that a lot of things in the ballroom need to be replaced, but he didn’t think it was going to happen this year. He pointed out that they

have overspent on other things, and they don’t have the money there. He explained that there are some things like the $57,000 for an audio system that gets them nothing but being able to segregate the two rooms when the divider is up. Mr. Costello responded that he agreed with Mr. Realmuto there. He added that the only thing he is saying is like the tennis courts. He explained that he and Ms. Wells have spoken to the people who use the tennis courts all the time and it’s been around five years that this has been going on. He asked how much longer can they extend it out. He noted that they have an obligation to every person in this community that when people go to use an amenity that it is in proper working order. He also asked if they were defeating themselves by extending the use of it or are they helping themselves by maintaining it in a proper order. Mr. Realmuto responded that he remains openminded about that. He stated if the consensus is there is a reason to replace it now rather than later then he would change his mind on that item. However, he explained that with the $17,000, that may be where they need to spend it, but they need to spend $17,000 less somewhere else. He added that there was a lot of things on the capital projects list that could legitimately be deferred. Mr. Realmuto stated he was flexible, but they need to keep a very tight control on finances. Mr. Costello stated this is where the Sunshine Law has hurt them because someone will come to him with matters, and he can’t go to any of the Supervisors with the matters until they come to a meeting. Mr. Realmuto noted he never criticized staff, but he in fact praised them. He pointed out that it is to their credit that so far they are projected to save $120,000 out of the general fund, which will find its way into funding the capital projects fund if they don’t spend it.
Mr. Realmuto addressed Ms. VanSickle’s comment on him being a big proponent of the restaurant and the restaurant’s spending. He noted he wasn’t on the Board when the restaurant was accepted nor was Ms. VanSickle. He stated the proposal looked good, but he very quickly saw the Board had written a blank check. He spent the next year and a half making sure that the facts and the losses that they were incurring were put before the Board. He doesn’t think anyone was as big a proponent as either fixing the problem or getting rid of the restaurant. It took a year and a half. He noted he was threatened and told he should resign from the Board because he wasn’t supporting the restaurant. He stated he takes offense if he is being painted as big proponent of the restaurant after

seeing how they performed. He pointed out there was a single meeting when they brought in a new manager that he said it seemed like things were turning around and he suggested giving it another month or two. He added that over the course of the 18 months, he realized the amounts they were losing and was arguing for getting rid of that loss. Ms. VanSickle stated they very quickly saw the restaurant was losing money and she was pleading with the Board to terminate it and stop the hemorrhaging of money. She added that Mr. Realmuto’s response was that they lost less that month than they did the month prior. She explained that carries over to where they are today because they lost all that money, and they were dinged in their audit for taking money out of capital reserves to cover losses. Mr. Realmuto explained what they did to address that, which was they started by creating a separate fund. He stated he was against that from the beginning, but they started by creating a separate enterprise fund for it and they have since dissolved that fund. He noted that issue was addressed. Mr. Costello suggested that instead of looking at it and saying they have a spending problem, they should look at it and say they need to find a way to bring more money in. Mr. Realmuto asked all Board members to be equally receptive to ideas for funding that can be deferred that does not harm the perception of their community for all their residents. He added that it is only through a combination of both revenue and being fiscally prudent with their spending that they are going to achieve what they need to achieve and have the money there. He pointed out that when he talks about cutting spending, it’s not so they can spend less, it’s so there will be more money in the reserve fund to spend on things that need to be spent on. Ms. Landgrebe pointed out that these are basic estimates. She added that staff has not gone out to bid because no vendor is going to give an appropriate bid. She explained that is what staff does once the Board makes a decision. Mr. Realmuto stated these bids are not current, but they are backed by actual bids or quotes for these things with the exception of the reflection garden rehab, which is a number they put in there. He understands that some of these things he threw out there as examples might not be what they want to do. But he noted if they just take two of the things they are talking about with one being the
$57,000, which maybe could be pared down or eliminated to fix what is really broken, and the other being not replacing the sod brings them up to $73,000. He stated the point was if they could get to the $95,000, it’s $100 less of an assessment increase they need. Mr.

Costello noted that every estimate they get on everything says it’s good for a certain amount of days. He added that inflation is not only choking their community, but it is choking every vendor that they deal with. He asked if they want to be self-defeating or if they want to keep the place up. In reality, he stated, if they do it at the cheaper price, they are keeping it up at the best price possible.

Ms. Burns stated there was a change in Florida Statute that requires all CDD Boards to adopt goals and objectives. She pointed out they were just notified of this last month, and they need to adopt it prior to October 1. Ms. Burns’ office put together and recommended a general goals and objectives sheet to present to the Boards, which would comply with statutory requirements that are in place. Mr. Realmuto requested to change the requirement of only three regular Board of Supervisor meetings to at least six Board of Supervisor meetings. The Board agreed with Supervisor Realmuto’s request.

She explained this has been submitted to the state prior to the June 30 deadline. She further explained this was an independent audit report, and they are looking for a motion to accept it.

On MOTION by Mr. Realmuto, seconded by Ms. VanSickle, with all in favor, the Fiscal Year 2023 Audit Report, was approved 4-0.

EIGHTH ORDER OF BUSINESS	Monthly Reports
Attorney
Ms. Carpenter stated this month has been spent mostly dealing with the reciprocal easement and she also had a number of questions from the Board members this month on various issues. Other than that, she stated there was nothing out of the ordinary this month.

Lake Ashton Community Director
Consideration of Quotes to Paint the Clubhouse and Surrounding Amenities
Ms. Wells presented the Community Director Report to the Board. She provided an update on safety and security stating they met with LA II CDD staff and they are going to be receiving their training from Securitas, so they received theirs. She noted they have a separate contract, and they received the training as well and they are going to be attending their training when they have theirs. She pointed out they attended theirs when they had theirs, so they will get training again. She added that they are pretty well-versed with the system with everything they have worked through with the system. She stated training for residents is still pending. She also stated the walkthrough with Securitas staff occurred on June 21 where, they put together a list that she sent Supervisors that had all the concerns they had in regards to installation and some camera issues that they had. She added that to her knowledge, most of them have been taken care of. She stated they have done a decent job. There were some drywall repairs that need to be done. They sent pictures of every door to walkthrough and there was one pending camera issue to be taken care of. She stated they are still aiming to do distribution around the end of July/beginning of August. She noted there hasn’t been anything going out to staff yet because she wants to wait until LA II CDD gets their training and staff gets back from vacation because she needs everyone there when they do it. She stated the Joint RFID and Amenity Access Card Policy has been finalized with the changes discussed at the June meeting. The final document was sent to all Supervisors on June 26. She stated they received the sign for the Thompson Nursery Road entrance, and it will be installed this week.
Ms. Wells provided a TECO follow-up stating she emailed him a list of every issue with every pole. She anticipates that it will take a while because every pole needs to be painted and a few where the lights stay on during the day. She received an email while she was on vacation about someone reporting that the lights off. She added most of it is poles that need to be painted and poles with no identifying numbers on the front. There were only about four or five leaning poles out of the 233. She noted she is still working with them, and she doesn’t have an update, but they do have everything. She received an email back saying he was on vacation this week.

Ms. Wells reviewed general updates and follow-up. She stated the main thing she wanted to talk about was the kayak company. She went back to the kayak company with the questions Board members had at the April meeting. The following options were offered to get the program started with the required activation fees. She noted with either option, it is recommended Lake Ashton charge $30 per 2-hour rental with 50% going to Lake Ashton and 50% going to rent starting on Day 1. She stated staff doesn’t recommend moving forward with the current options that are on the table. She added that staff did ask if they would be willing to retain 100% of the revenue coming in, but they were not willing to accept that option at the present time. They met with RTC Outdoor on April 29 to begin plans for the Clubhouse “backyard” to include the areas discussed at the Budget Workshop, but this plan has not yet been received. She noted they have met with one of their vendors there as well. She followed up with her before she went on vacation to see if there were any updates, and she was going to get with their landscape vendor. She added that they are supposed to be providing a 3D drawing or map of what they would recommend for being in the back area for Supervisors to consider. She pointed out that it is something that they are doing free of charge, and they were trying to be patient. She stated they did get quote from another vendor that is about $10,000.
Ms. Wells reviewed the Project Tracking List. She stated they are still tying everything in with the conversion to natural gas. They have made some sod replacement on the golf course side, and she is working with them on that because there were some issues with how the sod was laid. She has a third vendor that is going to come and give a quote on replacement of the restaurant equipment tomorrow. She is going to move forward with alternative gas with doing the conversion with that. The other contractor that she had coming in could only do part of it. She explained that she wasn’t feeling very confident in that, so she would rather go with someone who they have worked with in the past who has a proven track record with them as well as other customers.
Ms. Wells presented quotes to paint the Clubhouse and surrounding amenities. She stated there was a purchase analysis that was put on the front to compare the two. She noted the last date that the Clubhouse was painted was 2016, the last date the pavilion was painted was in 2008, the last date the shuffleboard court was painted was

2008, and the last date the pool columns was painted was 2016. After discussion, it was decided to go with Bock & Hoeft Custom Painting’s quotes for $35,185.

On MOTION by Mr. Realmuto, seconded by Ms. Landgrebe, with all in favor, the Proposals from Bock & Hoeft Custom Painting for $35,185, was approved 4-0.

Operations Manager
Landscape Update
a) Presentation of Monthly Landscaping Checklist and Report
Mr. Fisher presented his report to the Board. He stated they had five dead queen palms removed along Lake Ashton Boulevard. He stated there was still some shell to be removed and Bermuda grass to be installed. They are working on getting extra weed control scheduled. José will be getting some stakes for the leaning bougainvillea at the entrance and he will get that taken care of this week. He noted the firebush at the entrance to the community seems to be growing at a rapid pace. They trimmed it down about a foot, but it grew back. They are going to trim it back another foot and maintain it at that level for visual reasons for drivers. He noted the shrubbery is getting tall and unsightly at Aberdeen, so staff is going to trim that down to about fence level.
Mr. Lopez stated next week starting Monday they are going to be taking care of the palms throughout the whole property. He noted there may be some lane closures and the crew is going to have extra people to redirect traffic.
Mr. Fisher continued presenting his report stating the CDD ponds were reviewed with Applied Aquatics. He stated there are still some ponds that are dry with vegetation growing. Those weeds are going to be treated. He pointed out that Pond GC3 is overrun with American Lotus Lilly, but it’s being treated. He stated they replaced the two entrances to the pavilion. He also stated staff installed a water fountain at the shuffleboard court. He noted they would pressure wash columns and fencing along the bridge near the island green and paint the columns and light fixtures. The tentative start date is the week of July 15, 2024. He also noted the bumper pads at the shuffleboard court will be replaced, which should start the week of July 22, 2024. Mr. Fisher concluded his report presentation.

District Manager’s Report
Ms. Burns had nothing specific to report to the Board, but she was happy to answer any questions. She reminded the Board she will send someone to fill her spot next month.

NINTH ORDER OF BUSINESS	Financial Report
Combined Balance Sheet
Capital Projects Reserve Fund
Statement of Revenues, Expenditures, and Changes in Fund Balance
Approval of Check Run Summary
Ms. Burns presented the financial report to the Board. She was happy to answer any questions. Mr. Realmuto commented on the combined balance sheet stating the balance in the capital projects fund as of now is $694,000. He noted in the general fund they have some savings, but in particular, since they haven’t actually activated or started paying for the access control system, they are projected to save quite a bit as well.

On MOTION by Mr. Realmuto, seconded by Mr. Costello, with all in favor, the Check Run Summary, was approved 4-0.

TENTH ORDER OF BUSINESS	Public Comments
Resident Frank Kennedy (3065 Dunmore Drive) commented on the contracts that Lake Ashton generates for vendors based on his experience in his professional career. He feels the security vendor has got away with a lot. He thinks they need project schedules tied to progress payments and their purchase orders need to be looked at closer by their lawyers.
Resident Marti Schmidt (4404 Ventana) commented on the budget and tennis courts.

The following is a summary of the discussions and actions taken at the August 19, 2024 Lake Ashton Community Development District Board of Supervisors meeting.

FIRST ORDER OF BUSINESS	Roll Call and Pledge of Allegiance
Mr. LeBrun introduced himself and called the meeting to order at 9:00 a.m. He called roll. Four Supervisors were present in person constituting a quorum.
Ms. VanSickle called up onsite restaurant owner, Nick, to speak. The restaurant owner asked the Board how they think the restaurant is going, how they think they are interacting with the community and how they have adjusted like they said they were. Secondly, he asked for some kind of solution to the rent because they are not getting the support that they feel they should be getting from the community. He discussed all the things they have tried. He noted he didn’t know what else to try to get more people to come in from the community. He asked about the upgrade to the security systems. Mr.

Costello responded that the security upgrade will hopefully be covered within the next few weeks.
Ms. VanSickle provided some suggestions to the restaurant owner, which included the restaurant menu and the advertisement and communication of specials, etc.
Mr. Realmuto stated he thinks the restaurant owner needs to look at other areas besides the financial. He asked the restaurant owner for other ways for the Board to help him. He explained that the restaurant owner needs to understand that they are investing a certain amount because this is an amenity for Lake Ashton residents. They have spent somewhere between $50,000 and $100,000 on the restaurant this year. He further explained that they have certain expenses to cover too. He doesn’t think lowering the rent even further is an option that is going to cover those expenses.
The restaurant owner stated a sign out front would be one way to help him get more people in from the outside. Ms. VanSickle responded that was in process because there is still some issues with that.
Regarding the rent, Ms. VanSickle pointed out that one thing they don’t have is the property taxes. She stated she would be willing to lower it to about $1,000 a month. She stated they aren’t trying to make money off the restaurant, and they want the restaurant owner to succeed.
Mr. Costello stated they don’t want the restaurant to close. He pointed out that Bingo is every Monday night. He suggested opening on Monday and offering a special on this day. Ms. Landgrebe noted her concern is that this suggestion might possibly be an obstacle for John on Bingo night. The restaurant owner suggested that he could just do the bar, so it will not be an issue for John. He stated he will look into this suggestion from Mr. Costello.
Ms. Landgrebe suggested that with the entertain series coming up, the restaurant owner could do a particular item to showcase. She discussed a few other great opportunities coming up for the restaurant business. The restaurant owner explained that this year has been a big learning curve with how things work inside the community of Lake Ashton. Ms. Landgrebe stated at this moment, she agrees that they should help the restaurant owner.

Mr. Realmuto stated the rent at essentially $1,000 a month would not cover the taxes as what they were 30 years ago. He thinks they should look at something that would cover the taxes. He asked the restaurant owner if he was not seeing the revenue or the traffic. The response was both. Mr. Realmuto asked the restaurant owner to give the Board some idea of the magnitude of the revenue shortfall. The restaurant owner explained the restaurant’s revenue shortfall. Mr. Realmuto stated he is trying to understand the difference and how much it needs to improve. Mr. Nick responded that number wise, it needs to go up at least $5,000 a week in both seasons to make ends meet. Mr. Realmuto stated he thinks there are things that Mr. Nick can do about that and things that the Board might can do to help make that happen because they want to keep Mr. Nick there as the restaurant owner in Lake Ashton. He asked Mr. Nick to keep in mind that that’s the amount that needs to be made up and $500 reduction in rent is not going to get them there. He added a lot more needs to be done. Mr. Realmuto asked the restaurant owner when he plans to become current with rent. The restaurant owner’s response was that he can start paying after this meeting.
Ms. VanSickle stated she thinks Nick, the restaurant owner, is trying to work with them and she thinks they need to try to work with him. She again stated she would be willing to lower the rent to $1,000 a month.
Ms. Landgrebe asked the Board and staff if they could also look at expediting a sign outside. Ms. Wells stated she had a quote that is ready to be presented to the Board. Mr. Realmuto asked where this sign would be placed. Ms. Wells responded that it would ultimately be up to the Board of Supervisors, but her suggestion was to put it at the front entrance of the community. Ms. Wells stated the goal was to put it towards facing traffic, which is why they may need one on each side because otherwise the signs may not be seen until they pass the entrance. Ms. Carpenter recommended Board approval of the sign and to let the engineer work with Ms. Wells to see the best placement.
Ms. VanSickle stated she is willing to work with Nick on things they can do, but in order to change the rent, it needs to be a Board decision. Mr. Realmuto stated it was a little inclined not to do it while there are amounts pending. He thinks the rent should be current before the Board considers any change. He suggested they put this item on the agenda for the next meeting. Mr. Realmuto made a motion to defer consideration to

decrease rent to their next meeting. There was no second motion, and the motion failed 1-3.
Mr. Costello made a motion to waive late fees and penalties, to lower rent for restaurant to $1,000 from July to December and to delegate the Chair to work with the restaurant owner.
Mr. LeBrun opened the public comment period. He informed the Board that the internet was still down. For the Zoom listeners, they will use a mobile hotspot to stream the audio.
Resident Al Cooney (4303 Ashton Club Drive) asked if they would be paying the taxes or will the restaurant owner be paying the taxes. Ms. VanSickle responded that there would probably be a small shortfall. Mr. Carpenter responded that there is contingency in the budget for next year as well as money left for this year to cover that small amount. Mr. Cooney stated the way he is looking at it he doesn’t think there is enough money in there to pay the taxes. Mr. Costello responded that there is going to be a shortfall but asked if they want to go without a restaurant. Mr. Cooney responded that he wasn’t talking about the restaurant but is talking about the taxes. Mr. Costello responded that there should have been enough money to pay the taxes. Mr. Cooney stated that there isn’t enough now. Mr. Realmuto responded that staff has done a great job helping the Board manage the general fund budget, which is where the taxes are paid out. He noted they saved enough in other areas that there is enough money to cover that. Mr. Costello stated it was going to impact them on the income side of the budget as far as they are not bringing in the amount of money they thought they were going to bring in from the restaurant.
Resident Dan Davis (4445 Turnberry Lane) stated Nick, the restaurant owner, has bent over backwards for this community to try to keep the restaurant open. He added that anything the community and the CDD Board can do to make this restaurant owner’s business succeed should not be a problem.
Resident Francis Kennedy (3065 Dunmore Drive) stated he was going to commit to going to the restaurant once a week minimum and he is going to ask his fellow residents to do the same. He also stated that if everyone within this community could go a minimum once a week, it would help Mr. Nick and his staff a lot.

Resident Michelle (4073 Stone Creek Loop) stated Nick, and his staff have been so hospitable. She is offering to help. She commented on how to get the community members involved to help with the ideas as well because she has a few ideas herself. She thanked Nick and his incredible team. Ms. VanSickle thanked Ms. Michelle and told her she would be in touch with her.

On MOTION by Mr. Costello, seconded by Ms. Landgrebe, with Ms. VanSickle, Ms. Landgrebe, Mr. Costello in favor and Mr. Realmuto opposed, Waiving Late Fees and Penalties, Lowering Rent for Restaurant to $1,000 from July to December and Delegating Chair to Work with Restaurant Owner, was approved 3-1.

The pledge of allegiance was recited.

SECOND ORDER OF BUSINESS	Approval of Meeting Agenda
Ms. VanSickle apologized for everything being out of order so far. The meeting agenda was amended to add the resturant discussion.

On MOTION by Ms. Landgrebe, seconded by Mr. Costello, with all in favor, the Meeting Agenda with Addition of the Restaurant Discussion, was approved 4-0 as amended.

THIRD ORDER OF BUSINESS	Public Comments on Specific Items
on the Agenda (the District Manager will read any questions or comments received from members of the public in advance of the meeting)
Mr. LeBrun opened the public comment period. Mr. LeBrun noted again that the internet is not working, so there are no comments that can be pulled from Zoom.
John Sebastian (Lot 931) commented that he is so excited that they are looking at new colors for the clubhouse. He noted his favorite color is intuitive off white. He added that he doesn’t think they could go wrong with any of the color presented in the minutes, but he thinks it’s time to change it up and go with something other than yellow. He

explained that the white brings a freshness, new look, a more modern look. He noted his favorite colors are PPG1022-2, PPG1022-1, PPGG1136-5, and PPG1022-5.
Francis Kennedy (3065 Dunmore Drive) also commented on the clubhouse paint colors and agreed with Mr. Sebastian’s recommendation on the intuitive off white color. He stated he appreciated the engineer’s report because it is very detailed and definitive. He reiterated the importance of Lake Ashton attaching to all PO’s and extensions a detailed terms & conditions clause including such things as consequential damages, liquidated damages, warranty clause, failure to perform, payment terms, force majeure, etc. Ms. Carpenter responded that they prepared contracts that include all those provisions for anything that is material. On the smaller contracts, they are generally not asked to do that. She explained that they have to weigh the benefits versus the cost. She stated that is up to the Board if they would like for them to review and add addendums to all the purchase orders that the Board receives. Mr. Realmuto asked Ms. Carpenter if the three major contracts that they have coming up later in this agenda have terms and conditions attached to each or any of those that maybe weren’t included. Ms. Carpenter responded that until they are approved they general don’t. She explained that the extensions were just renewals, so those provisions are already in all those contracts. She added that these are just the renewals. She noted for anything that is approved by the Board, they can do it after the fact. She further explained that they add just a short addendum adding the government provisions if it’s just a purchase order. If it’s anything that is material, then they are asked to do a full contract. Ms. Landgrebe asked what is considered material. Ms. Carpenter responded that it was usually up to staff, but generally if it’s in the $8,000 to $10,000 range. She noted again that it’s up to the Board if they wat them to renew all the purchase orders. Mr. Realmuto responded that they need to make sure that most their staff has oversight to be sure that they review those terms very carefully. Ms. Landgrebe noted in regard to warranties, she wants to make sure they are included, especially with the landscaping. Ms. Carpenter responded that she is hoping that Yellowstone has the warranties in their proposals that are an attachment, but they will double check that. She stated if the Board approves, it will be subject to them making sure the warranty language is in there.

Jonathan Ridpath (4135 Aberdeen Lane) stated he was not commenting on anything specific to the agenda, but he sent a letter to the Board on July 16. He noted one Board member never responded and the other two responded with what seemed like a form letter. He wants to get his letter into the record, and he was told he had to come here and read it. He read his letter aloud stating he was commenting on the behavior he witnessed during the CDD meeting on Monday, July 15, 2024. He is appalled with the treatment of Mr. Realmuto by other Board members during the meeting. He specified that during agenda item 4A tabled business from June 17, 2024, Mr. Realmuto made a motion to discuss the language of Florida Statute 190.006, which clearly states that in an event of a vacancy, the Board shall appoint or replace the member. He noted in legal terms “shall” is an imperative command, usually indicating that certain actions are mandatory, not permissible. He added that Mr. Costello, Ms. Landgrebe and Ms. VanSickle refused to second the motion and there was no discussion. He asked the Board of Supervisors why they refused to discuss the motion and why they would want to go months with only four Board members. He explained that the perception was that some of the Board are eluding to keep Greg Ulrich off the Board until November. He also pointed out that when Mr. Realmuto attempted to put forth some reasonable reductions in the budget, he was immediately attacked and yelled at by Mr. Costello, Ms. Landgrebe kept interrupting and Ms. VanSickle did nothing. He questioned why Mr. Realmuto is being bullied. He stated over the last two years he observed that Mr. Realmuto and Mr. Howison are the only Supervisors who entertained budget reduction ideas. He also stated that there are quite a few people in this community who feel the Board is not spending their money wisely. He believes the CDD Board has a spending problem. He asked the Board of Supervisors to please remember they are on the Board to represent all the members of the community, not just friends or the ones yelling the loudest. He also stated the Board of Supervisors need to take into consideration that many people are struggling. He suggested that if something comes in front of the Board, an important question to ask is if it’s needed or something that would be nice to have. He feels that Mr. Costello, Ms. Landgrebe and Ms. VanSickle are in violation of Florida Statute, and they should all resign immediately.
Ms. Carpenter noted if anyone has a letter or anything they want the Board to see, they can submit it to the manager, and it can be included in the agenda, so they don’t

have to attend the meeting if they are not able to. She also clarified on the 190.06 issue that the language does say “shall”, and it’s mandatory, but there is no time designated time-period. She explained that several CDDs hold off on appointing someone until the election since they know that is coming soon. She further explained another alternative that CDDs use is to put out a request for resumes or interest for anyone else who wants to so the Board can see if there is anyone else that wants the position.
Mr. Costello responded that this isn’t the first time that this has happened. He also commented on the accusation of collusion made about the three Board of Supervisors.
Ms. VanSickle responded that one comment about the Board behaving better that was made was valid, but she didn’t think it was just the three Board members. She noted there is an underlying issue that keeps bringing this forward. She explained that there is two sides to every story.
John Parizek (4167 Aberdeen Lane) commented on the color schemes for the clubhouse, the guard shack and some of the other buildings in the community. He stated he doesn’t like the light colored hues. After reviewing the color scheme, he stated only the color in that scheme, halo, is an approved color by the HOA. He question why they would be choosing colors that the rest of the community is bound through certain colors. He reviewed the CC&Rs to see if anything references this and he came across three sections. He also commented on Florida Statute 190.0064 stating he agrees that it doesn’t include a timeline to appoint somebody. In saying that, he added that it also doesn’t say that they can choose to appoint somebody or not. It says you “shall” appoint someone. He stated that it makes sense since Mr. Ulrich will be assuming that seat in November that he would be a likely candidate for early appointment. He doesn’t think it makes sense to keep that seat vacant. He believes the seat should be filled and it should be filled by Mr. Ulrich.
Ms. Carpenter addressed the comment about CC&Rs. She noted that the CDD is not a lot owner or a member of the HOA. She explained that guest practice has been that the CDD complies when they can but is not bound by all the terms that lot owners are going by. Ms. VanSickle added that Ms. Wells has gone over the community looking at the colors and would never pick anything that wouldn’t blend in well with the rest of the

houses. She also pointed out that this is a lot bigger building than their personal homes, so they have to think about the color.
Charles Witski (4179 Aberdeen Lane) commented that there was a load of gravel dumped in the back parking lot. He requested for that to be cleaned up, so the presentation is better. He also commented that there was a lot of mulch missing where they did the gas lines out front. He explained that every time it rains, they get mud on the sidewalk. He requested to get the mulch down. He also commented on overgrown bushes on the fence line. He requested that the bushes be leveled with the fence line because he thinks it would improve the appearance of their community. Ms. VanSickle responded that she thinks staff can look into those requests.

FOURTH ORDER OF BUSINESS	Consideration of Minutes from the
July 15, 2024 Board of Supervisors Meeting
Ms. VanSickle presented the June 15, 2024 Board of Supervisors meeting minutes. She asked for any comments or changes. Mr. Realmuto commented that there were two handouts given to Supervisors, one from Mr. Realmuto and one from Ms. VanSickle. He has two issues with the minutes. One that only one of the handouts was provided and he thinks both should be provided. The other issue was that the Board’s discussion was not reflected in the minutes on the four items he provided for each fiscal years budget and the examples and ways they could save money. He asked the Board to not approve the July 15, 2024 minutes until both handouts are included as well as the discussion related to those handouts. The minutes from the July 15, 2024 meeting will be redone and brought back for approval.

FIFTH ORDER OF BUSINESS	Engineering Report
Mr. Posten presented the Engineering Report to the Board. The first item discussed is regarding the City of Lake Wales sanitary sewer inspection. He explained that they are making progress with the city, and they have now got back to them. They reviewed the CCTV footage, and they provided them some commentary and notes that he thinks they need to take more time to address. He further explained that they came back to them Friday stating that they are going to get a third party contractor to come and

do a better inspection of the lines than what they could provide in-house. He noted they are agreeable to that; they will make sure that happens in a timely manner and they will bring it back to the Board. Ms. Landgrebe requested that it be within the next 10 days. Mr. Costello responded that he agreed with Ms. Landgrebe, but he doesn’t see that happening. Mr. Realmuto stated timeline aside from that, he asked Mr. Posten to address some of the things he saw in the video that was provided, what problems it caused for them and how the city should address it. Mr. Posten explained that what they saw in the footage was areas where there is definitely infiltration in the lines silt sediment buildup. He added that they did not find many locations where it’s a panic that that is where it’s coming in. It’s just in the lines. They also saw some low points in the lines, which indicates that it is settled. He noted direct ties to what is going on on the surface, they don’t have that yet aside from one location on Ashton Palms, which is a broke pipe that was saw on the video. The city will repair the pipe and the pavement on top. Ms. Landgrebe ask if they could request the city to reimburse them for incurred costs. Ms. Carpenter responded that they could certainly request it. Ms. Carpenter is going to stay on top of this.
Mr. Posten discussed his next item which is the Hole #4 pond bank repair. He explained that the repair was done, but the rain is still pushing through. It’s brought the main area of concern back. He explained that the contractor made that repair twice. They don’t think there was a construction defect. They do think it is due to the weather and timing. They are looking for alternative options for that. He noted there is also a full bank restoration plan on that in the next fiscal year and this may be one of the alternatives as they monitor it and get it completed with the full bank restoration. Mr. Realmuto noted concerns. He stated they were not talking just about the repair that was done. For reference, that was a repair they paid $1,750 for. He noted that repair was done well before the hurricanes. He pointed out that it was washed out when they had a normal Florida thunderstorm. He doesn’t buy the fact that it was something unusual that caused it. He understands the proximity, but when they do repairs, they should be expecting rain. He pointed out that the levels of the pond didn’t rise prior to the effect from the hurricane. He suggested that perhaps the design of the change wasn’t sufficient to handle conditions reasonably expected. He thinks they should be able to expect that we get more than a week or two, which is what they got out of it. He noted he doesn’t think the engineer

should have signed off on it. He stated they need a better repair. He suggested that this does not need to, and they need to take an emergency measure before they lose the entire cart path. Mr. Posten clarified that he wasn’t linking it to the one significant rainfall event, it’s the frequent rainfall events. He explained when they approved the repair, it was the transition between a dryer part of the season and the wet part of the season. Ms. Landgrebe responded that the repair was obviously not a proper repair. She asked what the solution was. Mr. Posten responded that the solution is to restore the whole bank and make it a significantly wider section next to the cart path. He added that is what they have recommended the CDD budget for the next fiscal year. He doesn’t know if the funds are there to make that size of a repair now. Mr. Realmuto responded that the reason they maintain their reserve is to handle emergency repairs like this. He wants to see a plan for what would fix the problem with frequent rain. He thinks this should be their #1 priority in terms of things that need to be addressed to prevent further damage. He also stated that if it’s that much of a problem that it can’t be addressed, they should perhaps consider moving that portion of the path to where it can be maintained. Mr. Posten stated they can bring a recommendation back for the Board next month. Ms. Landgrebe asked if the recommendation would include preliminary pricing. Mr. Posten responded that he would do his best on that. Mr. Realmuto stated essentially they threw away the $1,750 and he wasn’t happy with that. He doesn’t think the responsibility necessarily falls on the contractor because he implemented what the engineer proposed. He doesn’t think the District was well served by the engineer’s decision and he hopes they don’t see that again. Mr. Rayl asked the Board to keep in mind that the golf courses cart path were constructed almost 20 years ago. He explained that there has been no known maintenance of any erosion. He noted that there were many locations where the irrigation system is under water. He further explained that the failure at this location has been underway for 20 years. He stated, as the Board has already determined, there is going to have to be an action plan for these areas. He stated explained that they can dive into the examination and bring back a resolution. He explained that what they did here was they took an opportunity while the contractor was out there making a repair on the flume area. While they were there, they made their best attempt, and they repeated those attempts at trying to hold this other area through the rainy seasons and a tropical event. He offered

to revisit that. Mr. Realmuto stated his concern is if they look along that entire section of the cart path from where the flume repair was done to the other end of the pond, that whole area of the cart path seems that it is approaching imminent failure where there is voids under several sections of the golf path and the other sections the soil has eroded right up to that cart path. He noted they are looking for Mr. Rayl to do an evaluation of that entire bank and what they can do to prevent further damage. He emphasized that the need seems imminent. Mr. Rayl responded that they will look into that further.

Consideration of Proposal from JNS Environmental for 4081 Dunmore Drive S – 555 Catch Basin Repairs
Mr. Posten discussed the next item on his report, which is the Dunmore Inlets. He stated they have reached out and discussed with some contractors. AAA has put them with JNS Environmental. He presented a proposal from JNS Environmental for $8,845 per inlet to seal pipes and fill subsurface voids. They recommended the Board do one inlet to make sure that things work. He added they are not very familiar with this form of repair. The Board questioned them not being familiar with this repair.
Mr. Rayl discussed the Dunmore inlets as well and an alternative construction method. He explained that this was an initial construction defect that the developer handed to the CDD, and it’s been their problem to fix since then. He further explained that this was an alternative construction method that is different than what has been attempted before. He noted he doesn’t have any direct experience with this firm, but he is familiar with the technology. He stated it is done when they are in restricted areas. He stated if this can be done in a non-destructive way, all the better. However, if this method doesn’t do it, then they are talking about digging up that entire roadway and rebuilding or they just keep throwing asphalt into depressions. Mr. Realmuto stated he was trying to understand why they want to redo it. He asked Mr. Rayl and Mr. Posten if they have reexamined it in the last month and what they see that has changed from 18 months ago. Mr. Rayl responded that the depression is the same as it was 18 months ago when the repair was done. Mr. Posten responded that it seems to him that they are deeper than what they have been in the past. He noted that the complaint to them initially was that it has got worse. Discussion ensued on the Dunmore inlets. Mr. Realmuto asked if this was

something they should address imminently. Mr. Posten presented an option to the Board from AAA.

Consideration of Proposal from AAA Top Quality Asphalt for Asphalt Patching of Dunmore Inlets
Mr. Posten presented the proposal from AAA for asphalt patch for $2,000 per inlet or $4,000 for all three locations. He explained that they could patch the asphalt and then start taking measurements making sure the depression doesn’t reoccur. Mr. Posten stated they recommend the asphalt repair. He explained to fix the surface depression, AAA has to make the asphalt repair and JNS is doing the internal stuff to prevent it from happening again. Discussion ensued on the presented quotes for repairs of the Dunmore inlets. Mr. Realmuto stated even though they save money by repaving them all at the same time, he is hesitant to throw away money on repaving those that they don’t do the internal repair on. He noted that it seems like they are repeating the same mistake they made 18 months ago. He added that perhaps they could just do the internal repair on the one most in need. His recommendation is to go ahead and do the one inlet and see how that holds up over time. Mr. Rayl explained that the reason they are having these depressions at these inlets is there is a failure somewhere below the surface. He discussed all the components above the storm pipe. Ms. Landgrebe asked Mr. Rayl if after work is completed, he or Mr. Posten physically go out, validate everything and take photos. Mr. Rayl responded yes. Mr. Realmuto made a specific request that before and after photos be taken with a measurement of the depression all in the photos so there is no question about what was there before and where it is after the repairs are completed. Mr. Posten and Mr. Rayl responded that they could do that. The Board agreed to do the three asphalt repairs for $4,000 and the one internal repair for $8,845.

On MOTION by Ms. VanSickle, seconded by Mr. Costello, with all in favor, Items A&B with all Three Asphalt Spots Repaired, was approved 4-0.

Presentation of Pavement Assessment Report dated August 12, 2024
Mr. Posten discussed the final item he had, which is the PCI index update. This is provided in the agenda packet for review. He noted there was no immediate action item

involved. Mr. Costello asked if Mr. Posten felt like action needed to be taken on Turnberry at this time. Mr. Posten’s response was that it was already slated to be repaved by the CDD. The recommendations are the standard what they apply with the PCI index. He pointed out that Lake Ashton has relatively good road conditions. Mr. Costello explained that they want to be proactive in the fact that they don’t want to do it all at once. Mr. Posten stated that there were spot repairs that they continue to maintain annually. He pointed out that on Turnberry a spot repair would be around that inlet where they are doing all the sewer work and that would certainly need to be repaired in the near future. He noted that they want to wait for he sanitary sewer inspection and Turnberry is slated to be repaved. He stated that most of the significant repair needs in the community are based around the curbline and the sunk in curb, but the asphalt conditions are pretty good. He pointed out that was reflected in the PCI index. Discussion ensued on the PCI index. Ms. VanSickle stated after the last joint meeting, Mr. Mecsics and herself have been meeting to discuss things they can be doing to be more cost-effective and efficient. She noted one of the things they thought of is if they could coordinate some of their pavement projects, they could save the mobilization. She added that this could be advantageous to both sides and they could keep that in mind.

SIXTH ORDER OF BUSINESS	Old Business
Discussion Regarding Status of Lake Ashton Storage Road Repairs on Dunmore Drive (requested by Supervisor Landgrebe)
Ms. Landgrebe stated she has been very concerned that the ripped up road outside the storage unit area is not being attended to. She has brought this up previously that this was not good neighbor policy. She pointed out that most recently they have attempted to dump rock in there. It is still not level and not up to their expectations. She doesn’t feel like this item has been expedited and now they also have their construction debris, dirt and skid marks all over the area. Ms. Carpenter responded that there is a lot of communications going back and forth. She knows Rayl Engineering has been on top of that issue. Mr. Posten stated they have submitted plans for the restoration of that portion of the road. They think that work is acceptable they way they have proposed it. He stated they were staying on top of notifying them that the road conditions are unacceptable. Ms. Carpenter responded that they submitted repairs that their engineer

prepared, they have been approved and they are looking for the Board to approve the engineer’s recommendation to go forward. Board discussion ensued on the repairs. Mr. Realmuto asked if there were two different types of pavements specified and what is the total thickness or depth of the pavement. Mr. Posten does not have the plans in front of him right now. Mr. Realmuto asked if the plan provided was reviewed and ok. Mr. Rayl responded yes. He discussed the thickness, the depth of the pavement and all the elements. He stated the total depth of the asphalt in the trench is three inches and in the area of overlay it’s one and half inches. Mr. Realmuto noted there is an additional problem, which is the debris gathering in the gutter. He asked if there was any requirement specified about clean up downstream heading toward Litchfield Loop. Mr. Posten responded yes; they have brought that to their attention multiple times, and he thinks that is one area they are not doing what they are asking. Ms. Carpenter stated they can make a formal demand that they do those repairs the week of September 6, 2024. They will make it formal and have them acknowledge that they will do the clean-up and everything else they are requesting. The Board agreed. Ms. Carpenter suggested that they demand the cleanup within five days to get that cleaned up and if not, then they will have to get the lawyers involved. After discussion, the Board moved forward with the motion for the engineer to proceed with deadline given, September 6, 2024, to vendor and cleanup of areas, counsel to follow-up with engineer.

On MOTION by Ms. VanSickle, seconded by Ms. Landgrebe, with all in favor, the Engineer to Proceed with Deadline given (9/6/2024) to Vendor and Cleanup of Areas, Counsel to Follow- up with Engineer, was approved 4-0.

SEVENTH ORDER OF BUSINESS	New Business
Consideration to Amend and Extend Agreements for District Services:
Third Extension and Amendment to the Landscape Maintenance Services Agreement with Yellowstone Landscape-Southeast, LLC
Ms. Carpenter explained that these are the annual one-year extensions beginning October 1, 2024. She is providing these a month early so the Board has them. She noted the one comment is on the landscape maintenance. They will confirm the warranty information in there and if not, they will add that to the extension.

Extensions to Aquatic Management Services Agreement with Applied Aquatics
East Conversation Area, Mitigations 1B & 7A, Wetlands 2-6 & 8,
Pine Island & Utility Easement
West Conservation Area from Clubhouse to Boat Ramp

Security Services Agreement with Securitas (Information regarding this item may be exempt from Public Records Requests; Supervisors will be provided a copy under separate cover)
Mr. Realmuto stated these all fall within the budgeted amounts. Ms. VanSickle asked for a motion to approve Items 7A I., II., III.

On MOTION by Ms. VanSickle, seconded by Mr. Costello, with all in favor, Items 7A I, II, and III, were approved 4-0.

Consideration of Draft Changes to Pet Play Park Policies (requested by Supervisor VanSickle)
Ms. VanSickle presented this item to the Board. She stated she met with Ms. Littlewood, Ms. Wells and Ms. VanKirk and one of the concerns with the pet play park is that they be consistent in their rules among all three play parks. She discussed the things that were taken out. One was “The Security Staff will unlock and lock the gates daily.” because that is not being done on either side. Another was “No children are allowed in the parks without adult supervision.” because they felt this needed to be defined better. They added “All Patrons under eighteen (18) years of age must be accompanied at all times by a parent, guardian, or adult Patron over twenty-one (21) year of age.” She noted that part of the committee felt that smoking should be listed as not permitted in the Pet Play Park areas. A change that they wanted was “No food or dog treats are permitted. Exceptions can be made by the Amenity Manager for special events and activities.” She noted these were suggested changes to the amenity policy that would have to be ratified at a joint meeting. Mr. Realmuto asked if all the concerns and suggestions were addressed with these changes. Ms. VanSickle responded that feedback was considered. Discussion ensued on the Pet Play Park Polices. Ms. Carpenter noted concern with the

verbiage of the policy, “All pet play parks welcome all sized pets.” Board discussion ensued on replacing the word “Pet” with “Dog”. After discussion, the Board agreed to replace the word “Pet” with “Dog”. Discussion ensued on Policy #14 regarding pet toys being picked up and removed when done. The Board noted the policy should address other items from Patrons than just pet toys should be cleaned up as well.

On MOTION by Mr. Costello, seconded by Ms. Landgrebe, with all in favor, the Draft Changes to Pet Play Park Policies, was approved as amended 4-0.

Discussion Regarding Parking on CDD Property (requested by Supervisor Landgrebe)
Ms. Landgrebe asked for the Board’s opinion regarding the parking on CDD property. She noted that there are cars, pickup trucks, trailers, vendors, etc. parking on CDD property in the grass and it’s leaving indentations in the ground and damage and the CDD is held responsible. She asked the Board if they still want to allow this parking on CDD property, do they want to consider no parking or do they want to only allow parking in certain areas. Mr. Realmuto suggested that if there is an area where it is creating a problem, they could address that individually with no parking signs. He added that he isn’t aware of any such area now, but if there is they should address it on a case- by-case basis. Mr. Costello noted one of the things that he has said in the past was alternate side of the street parking due to the fact that these streets are narrow. He suggested that maybe this was idea they could revisit. Ms. Landgrebe noted the specific areas she is concerned about are to the right of the clubhouse to the ponds, to the left before Berwick, down Dunmore, and down Berwick at the pond. Mr. Realmuto suggested one way to address the issue is roving patrol. It was decided to add this item to the agenda for further discussion next month.

EIGHTH ORDER OF BUSINESS	Monthly Reports
Attorney
Ms. Carpenter stated the reciprocal easement was signed. She explained that they were just waiting to get the final attachments to show the actual depiction of where it is, so people don’t have to try to figure it out from the legal description. She further explained

that they got the signature from the developer Friday, so it will get recorded today or tomorrow. She noted that they have talked at length regarding the restaurant letter. The only other thing on her report was regarding the new that was passed effective July 1, 2024. She explained that this new law requires that all governments that enter into contracts with non-governments to get an affidavit from the non-government that they have not coerced anyone into employment. It’s in the criminal law for human trafficking. She noted they will have a memo for the Board next month that they will put in the agenda. She added that they will have to get affidavits from most of their vendors going forward.

Lake Ashton Community Director
Consideration of Additional Paint Colors for Painting Clubhouse and Surrounding Amenities
Ms. Wells presented the Community Director Report to the Board. She provided a security update stating they attended their training. She explained that the training for residents will be on her report month to month until it happens, but it’s not going to happen before September 10, and it will be once they are finished with credentials. She pointed out that the training does not affect anything that residents are going to get. It just shows residents how to use the visitor management system once they have their credentials and they send them a registration link. She pointed out that they would see those for a couple of months and it’s intentional and not anything that has been delayed. She noted the installation has been redone. She stated there were a couple of minor follow-up repairs and they did a walkthrough on August 12, 2024. On the walkthrough, they found some things that need to be repaired. Once the repairs are done and the test happens this week, they will get a point of signoff once they have everything Ms. Wells has requested. She stated the additional work where they uninstalled the conduit did not cost the District any extra money, it was all on them. She stated they have did the first of many final walkthroughs. She reviewed a list of items, but noted they are relatively minor. Mr. Realmuto stated there was going to be no sign off on the Board’s side until she has witnessed everything working including all the capabilities of things like cameras that were promised. Ms. Wells stated there was no rush on her end to sign off on anything until everything is right. She added she wants to make sure everything is signed off. She explained that it doesn’t mean that they lose service after that because once they sign

off, it just goes into a service and maintenance contract and things are still covered under their warranty, but she needs to make sure everything is as it is in the contract before they sign off on it. She noted they are getting there though, and they are still scheduled for September 10. She put something into the September newsletter, so the residents are aware. She stated news blasts will start going out towards the end of this month letting residents know what to bring and how to be prepared. She is working with Karen on volunteers. She stated they have a procedure in place that they want to show volunteers that will be assisting them. She added that the main thing is to make sure the RFID tag is being placed on the vehicle while they are there or at the HFC under the presence of staff or volunteer. She stated they are planning on distributing Tuesdays through Thursdays from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. and it will be called by street. She explained they did that, so they had Mondays and Fridays to take care of other tasks that staff has to do. She stated this will be sent out in a blast the week before. They are organizing this with Karen over at HFC. The next thing she reviewed is that they put several articles addressing driver and pedestrian safety in the August newsletter, and they will continue to do that each month to make people aware. She also discussed the item regarding the autonomous golf carts. Ms. Wells provided a TECO follow-up stating they did have all the poles painted.
She added the leaning poles have been taken care of. Since she did this report, they are about 90% done with the identifying numbers. She explained that they have the lights that stay on during the day and they have one light out that they are still working on. They have submitted reports, and they are submitting again. She is going to follow-up with their TECO contact to make sure they are taken care of because one is a safety concern.
Ms. Wells reviewed the general updates and follow-up. She stated the appraisal company has been retained to evaluate the sales office, which will be occurring this week. She will provide more information regarding that at the September meeting. They are still working with RTC Outdoor. She will have the sign options at the September meeting. She stated staff will be presenting quotes for trim lights at the September meeting. She asked the Board if they still want staff to provide quotes at the September meeting for the ballroom kitchen rehab. It was suggested that maybe they should start with an overall plan, break it up and go from there. The Board noted that they would rather allocate some of that money to what is more readily seen rather than the ballroom kitchen. Discussion

ensued on the ballroom kitchen rehab. After discussion, Ms. Wells stated in an effort to keep things moving, she will get some quotes together for the ballroom kitchen rehab so the Board can look at the entire project and then they can determine if they want to do a piece of it or if they want to just defer that way they at least have those plans and then they can decide if they want to discuss it later. The Board agreed.
Ms. Wells presented the project tracking list to the Board.
Ms. Wells also presented paint color options for the clubhouse and surrounding amenities. She noted she is waiting on the larger samples of paint to come in but provided some samples of paint for the Board to view. After discussion, the Board agreed that they are open to new colors, but they don’t want not new colors that will require two coats of paint. Ms. Wells asked the Board if they want to paint the guardhouse the same color as the clubhouse and look at painting the columns the same color as the guardhouse. The Board requested that they leave the guardhouse like it is now. Mr. Realmuto stated he thinks they can get away with choosing a slightly lighter shade of the same color. It was decided for staff to make these decisions. Ms. Wells clarified that they would paint the shuffleboard court, the pool columns and the pavilion the same color they choose for the clubhouse. The Board confirmed Ms. Wells statement. There was Board consensus for staff direction to use #3 through #6 choices and make the decisions. Ms. Wells did not recommend painting the gutters and to keep them white as they are now. The Board agreed with Ms. Wells recommendation to keep the gutters white.

Consideration of Quotes to Replace the Clubhouse Gutter System
Ms. Wells stated this is the original gutter system and there were repairs done in 2019. She stated that this was a reserve study project that was added to the project list for Fiscal Year 2024. She presented three quotes to replace the clubhouse gutter system. The Board decided to go with the quote from Tropical Seamless Gutters of Central Florida for $16,400.

On MOTION by Mr. Costello, seconded by Ms. VanSickle, with all in favor, the Proposal from Tropical Seamless Gutters of Central Florida to Replace the Clubhouse Gutter System for
$16,400, was approved 4-0.

Operations Manager
Landscape Update
a) Presentation of Monthly Landscaping Checklist and Report
Mr. Fisher presented his report to the Board. He stated in landscaping there are two areas that staff is working on getting updated and new plants installed. He stated he got a quote from Yellowstone. He talked to Mr. Wittman, and he has no issues with them looking at cheaper prices and he will do the labor to install. For Aberdeen, he stated he is going to get with Yellowstone to get a couple of pallets of Bahia sod and fill some of the sandy areas while it’s rainy season. He will keep the Board updated, but it should be done by the next Board meeting.
Mr. Wittman stated they got the palm pruning all done. He stated they are waiting on the Bermuda install. It added that it should be available this week and they will get that area done. He noted they removed some palms at the front entry. He stated they are scheduling weed control for the turf areas. He noted for Aberdeen they may send their detailed team there to clean the line up on the fence as mentioned by resident. Ms. Landgrebe wanted to make sure that they are talking about outside of the fence and not on the residents side. Mr. Fisher confirmed that they would be staying east of Berwick. Mr. Wittman stated they would be working on the mulch for November, and they would get it in before Thanksgiving.
Mr. Fisher noted that they also spoke about keeping the fire bush at the entrance about two feet for visual reasons for drivers. He added that it’s there, growing back and looks really good. He stated Applied Aquatics is doing fantastic. He noted the ponds look great for this time of year. He also stated they were able to get the boat in to the pond along the green to treat grasses. He is going to go look at that today and see how it’s doing so he can update concerned residents. Mr. Costello noted he went through there the other night, and it looks like everything is dying. Mr. Fisher stated honey bees were removed from an area above the ramp leading to the stage of the ballroom. He also stated they had to remove some stucco on the building in the area the bees were removed. He added that they also have some stucco repairs being done in the gate house this week. Ms. Landgrebe asked about the bike rack. Mr. Fisher noted they had some turf left over from the bocce ball courts and they are going to pin down the turf in an area along the cart path to make it the new bike rack area. He pointed out that it can easily be removed

if it doesn’t work. Mr. Realmuto asked Mr. Fisher to update the Board on the status of the internet and Wi-Fi. Mr. Fisher provided an update on the internet and Wi-Fi stating it was up and running. He noted he would provide an update at the next meeting. Ms. Landgrebe asked about the fountain in the front. Mr. Fisher addressed Ms. Landgrebe’s question about the fountain and stated he will get with Angel to take of the fountain.

To:	District Managers
From:	District Counsel (Jan Albanese Carpenter, Esq., Jay E. Lazarovich, Esq. and Kristen E. Trucco, Esq.)
Regarding:	New Affidavit Requirement for Governmental Entities
Date:	August 2024

We are providing you with information about new legislation which affects governmental entities in the State of Florida. House Bill (“HB”) 7063 was recently signed into law and went into effect on July 1, 2024.

HB 7063 amended Section 787.06, Florida Statutes, creating a new requirement affecting governmental entities entering into contracts with nongovernmental entities. Under Section 787.06 (13), Florida Statutes, “When a contract is executed, renewed, or extended between a nongovernmental entity and a governmental entity, the nongovernmental entity must provide the governmental entity with an affidavit signed by an officer or a representative of the nongovernmental entity under penalty of perjury attesting that the nongovernmental entity does not use coercion for labor or services as defined in this section.” A governmental entity under this section means any state, county, district, authority, or municipal officer, department, division, board, bureau, commission, or other separate unit of government created or established by law including, but not limited to, the Commission on Ethics, the Public Service Commission, the Office of Public Counsel, and any other public or private agency, person, partnership, corporation, or business entity acting on behalf of any public agency, as defined in Section 287.138(1), Florida Statutes.

To comply with this new requirement, we have incorporated the required statement into our affidavits, where applicable, to avoid the nongovernmental entity having to execute an additional document. However, there will be certain instances that require a standalone affidavit executed by the appropriate nongovernmental entity, including, but not limited to, contractors, developers, engineers, homeowners’ associations, underwriters, etc. Attached is a form Trafficking Affidavit to be used in those instances. Please ensure affidavits are collected from all nongovernmental entities as required under this new law.

Please feel free to contact our office should you have any questions on this new legislation or any other CDD requirements.

Thank you.

General Updates + Follow-Up from Board Meeting
The General Election will take place on November 5 in the Clubhouse Ballroom. All Lake Ashton residents will vote in the Clubhouse Ballroom.
Both billiards tables were recovered.
Staff is working on scheduling the painting of the Clubhouse and replacement of the gutter system. Bock and Hoeft recommended not removing the gutter system prior to painting. They will remove the gutter system in sections prior to painting and will replace it temporarily so the system is still functional while the project is in progress.
The painter confirmed all the colors that were given to staff to choose from were able to be applied with only one quote of paint. The painter is in the process of scheduling pressure washing and once that is completed painting will commence.
Agreements were drafted by District Counsel for the pavement and pipe repairs on Dunmore. Both have been executed by the contractor and work is scheduled for the beginning of October.
All maintenance agreements, except for the security agreement, have been executed.
District Counsel added the following statement to the landscape renewal agreement: “Contractor warrants all plantings including but not limited to bushes, plants, trees, grass and other vegetation for one (1) year from the date of installation. During the applicable warranty period, Contractor shall replace, at no additional cost to the District, all materials which are dying, dead, diseased, or otherwise not performing to a commercially reasonable standard. Thirty (30) days before the expiration of any warrantied items, Contractor shall submit a report to the District showing the current status of such items and shall coordinate with the District for an on-site review to determine if materials are sufficient.”
An agreement was drafted by District Counsel and executed for the installation of gutters at the Clubhouse. This project will take place after the painting of the Clubhouse is complete.
Anti-Trafficking affidavits have been signed by all vendors since the August meeting and will continue until all vendors have an affidavit on file.
RTC Outdoor is working on options for the Reflection Garden area to promote more utilization by residents. Staff continues to follow-up on the status of the plan they are putting together.
Staff reached out to Polk County Planning and Development to see what steps are needed for the installation of a sign advertising businesses within Lake Ashton that

are open to the public, including Charm City at Lake Ashton. The Planning Administrator informed me that Thompson Nursery Road is an Urban Collector. They don’t allow signage on Collector Roads. Only on Local Roads through right-of-way use agreements. The only other options we have is to install signs on our property. One way to do this would be to install the signs on the fence or along Lake Ashton Blvd, where the other signs are in the median.
Staff researched options for addressing the parking issues on CDD property along ponds.
“No Parking” signs could be installed in these areas with the community
standard posts.
Plantings could be installed along the pond banks. Would need to research options that do not require irrigation.
Large boulders could be installed. An example is shown below. Would use larger boulders
Parking bollards could be installed.
