APPROVAL OF MINUTES
February 21, 2019, Regular Board Meeting

The February 21, 2019, Regular Board Meeting minutes were presented for approval.

A motion was made by Mr. Hogan, seconded by Ms. Czubkowski and passed unanimously approving the minutes of the February 21, 2019, Regular Board Meeting, as presented.

OLD BUSINESS
Discussion Regarding Sign Replacement

Mr. Hirniak stated that there were a total of 234 signs denoting the limits of littoral planting areas that needed to be replaced. He went over pricing from Lykens Sign Tech, which was $88.75 per sign, if 50 signs are done at one time; or $82 per sign, if they are all done at the same time. There was discussion and Mr. Hirniak stated he would survey which signs were down or collapsing and recommend replacing those first. He will also make sure the proposal includes removal of the old signage.

A motion was made by Ms. Czubkowski, seconded by Mr. Doyle and passed unanimously authorizing the finalization of the proposal with Lykens Sign Tech for 50 sign replacements and removals and further authorizes the Chairperson to execute same.

NEW BUSINESS
Update on Littoral Banks and Repair of Washouts

Mr. Hirniak indicated that Napier had provided a proposal in the amount of $44,510.38 to do repairs in 45 different locations. There was discussion for Mr. Hirniak to notate where there were problems with the source causing the erosion.

A motion was made by Ms. Czubkowski, seconded by Mr. Hogan and passed unanimously authorizing the expenditure and for the Chairperson to execute the agreement.

Discussion Regarding Sample Stormwater Management Rules

Mr. Urbancic gave an example of another district that went through the rulemaking process in order to adopt stormwater management rules. He indicated that the procedure includes advertising and one public hearing.

Ms. Czubkowski handed out a resolution passed by the HOA Board of Directors and opined that she believes the District should pass its own or have an agreement with the HOA. She felt that there currently is no cooperation between the ACC, the HOA and Mr. Hirniak doing inspections on behalf of the District. Mr. Hirniak indicated that he had been doing such, but it stopped and he suggested a more formal agreement with the ACC to ensure the District stays informed. Ms. Czubkowski expressed her with the liability if contractors use the CDD to do projects and are not holding the District harmless. Mr. Hirniak indicated he would ask the HOA to add the CDD to the hold harmless in agreements. Ms. Cucinella noted she would speak with the HOA and bring back their comments to the Board.

Consider Approval of Addendum to Clarke Agreement for Spike Rush Treatment

Ms. Cucinella noted that in previous meetings where the Board approved the addition of $87,000 to the budget for additional spike rush treatment, she found it was never on the list of original plants to treat as maintenance and can be added to the agreement for a one-time treatment for $5,000. She indicated that this one-time treatment should get it under control and then can made part of the monthly maintenance at a cost of an additional $625 per month. She added that spike rush has benefits as 10 feet on each side of lake, but the middle areas, especially where narrow, will be kept clear. There was discussion that the one-time $5,000 treatment could be done this year with the remainder added to the budget.

A motion was made by Ms. Czubkowski, seconded by Mr. Hogan and passed unanimously approving the Addendum to the Clarke Agreement for spike rush treatment, as presented.

Consider Resolution No. 2019-01 – Adopting a Fiscal Year 2019/2020 Proposed Budget

Resolution No. 2019-01 was presented, entitled:

RESOLUTION NO. 2019-01

A RESOLUTION OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF THE VERONA WALK COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT APPROVING A PROPOSED BUDGET FOR FISCAL YEAR 2019/2020; AND PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE.

As previously discussed, it was the consensus of the Board to zero out the spike rush line item and change lake spraying to $72,500.

A motion was made by Mr. Hogan, seconded by Ms. Czubkowski and passed unanimously to adopt Resolution No. 2019-01, amended, setting the Public Hearing for June 20, 2019, at 10:00 a.m.
