1
FIDDLER’S CREEK CDD #2
January 27, 2016
40
Ms. Shannon Benedetti, a resident, and member of the landscape advisory team (LAT),
41
toured the property and made observations, which were presented to CDD #1, this morning,
42
along with pictures. Ms. Benedetti was especially concerned about white fly.
43
A meeting was held with all committee members to discuss the observations. CDD #2
44
does not have many problem areas; CDD #1 had more, specifically, at the front entrance. In
45
CDD #2, the bougainvilleas in the medians, are not thriving. The Board was asked to consider
46
replacing the bougainvilleas with alternative plants. Ms. Cathy Feser, the Horticulturalist, will
47
observe the medians, this Friday, and make recommendations. Ms. Benedetti provided a copy of
48
her report to Ms. Crismond, to forward to the District’s landscape company.
49
Mr. Miller asked if there is an alternative to the bougainvilleas. Ms. Benedetti indicated
50
that recommendations will be provided on Friday, after Ms. Feser provides her
51
recommendations.
52
Mr. Robertson suggested waiting until March, as bougainvilleas thrive in the spring. Ms.
53
Benedetti clarified that the requested consideration was for the future, especially along Sandpiper
54
Drive, to the Veneta entrance.
55
Ms. DiNardo asked how this matter was resolved in CDD #1. Ms. Benedetti indicated
56
that different species were planted in one section, which is being monitored; so far it looks good.
57
Ms. Crismond stated that the xanadu philodendrons were replaced with firebush but CDD #1
58
wanted to review the bougainvilleas, again, in a few months. In response to Ms. DiNardo’s
59
comment, Ms. Crismond reported that the firebush were planted last summer. It is a native plant
60
that is very hardy and thrives in all weather conditions.
61
bougainvilleas are usually beautiful, this time of year but they thrive in dry conditions and it has
62
not been dry, recently.
Ms. Crismond indicated that
63
Ms. Benedetti will provide a recommendation at the next meeting.
64
Ms. Benedetti observed a dead cassia tree and reported it to Ms. Crismond. Ms. DiNardo
65
recalled that all cassia trees were to be replaced. Ms. Crismond indicated that some cassia trees
66
were replaced last year and will follow up to determine why this cassia tree was not replaced.
67
Ms. Benedetti toured through CDD #2 and observed sparse areas in the Veneta circle.
68
Ms. Benedetti spoke to Ms. Crismond about the Ficus trees, by the utilities, which were damaged
69
by white fly. Ms. Benedetti determined that there was no white fly and asked Ms. Crismond to
70
instruct the landscaper to trim the tops of the Ficus trees damaged by the white fly, as it is
2
FIDDLER’S CREEK CDD #2
January 27, 2016
71
unattractive. In response to Ms. DiNardo’s question, Ms. Benedetti indicated that the density is
72
good at the bottom of the trees but there are holes at the top due to white fly damage. Several
73
bougainvilleas in front of the fountain were removed; however, one remained. Ms. Crismond
74
indicated that this item was included in her report.
75
76
Mr. Miller asked Mr. Adams to report on the bougainvilleas that were cut at the Veneta
entry.
77
Mr. Adams is obtaining proposals to replace two trees; however, the trees are not covered
78
by insurance. He explained that the only time a landscaping item is insurable is if it is attached
79
to an insured facility, such as a guardhouse. If there was landscaping around the guardhouse, for
80
example, and the guardhouse caught on fire and the landscaping burned, it would be insured for
81
replacement. Mr. Adams recommended installing cameras around the fountains because people
82
are hitting the shut-off button, entering the fountain, vandalizing the fountain, etc. Ms. DiNardo
83
noted that this is a serious problem because people walk on top of the rim of the fountain, put
84
their feet into the fountain, stomp on the area and the District is responsible, if someone falls into
85
the fountain. Ms. DiNardo suggested posting signage indicating that no photos are allowed at
86
the fountain. In response to Mr. Miller’s question, Mr. Adams confirmed that the District has
87
general liability insurance.
88
Regarding whether the District has liability exposure, Mr. Pires advised that it depends
89
on whether the District has a duty and there is an obvious hazard. He recommended posting
90
signs, to protect the District against exposure. Ms. DiNardo suggested posting a sign to prohibit
91
anyone from entering a certain area. Mr. Adams suggested deferring this discussion until the
92
next meeting when the insurance agent will be in attendance. Mr. Pires agreed.
93
Mr. Miller asked Mr. Charbonneau to provide his version of the events.
94
Charbonneau believed that the vandalism occurred late Saturday into Sunday and the storm was
95
used as a cover. Mr. Charbonneau noted that the trees were sawed through just enough, by a
96
hand saw, giving the appearance that the damage was caused by wind. The remaining tree was
97
much larger in circumference and had three faint saw marks through the base. Mr. Miller asked
98
if there is a written report. Mr. Charbonneau indicated that there was an internal report, which
99
was provided to Ms. Crismond and Mr. Adams; the report filed with the Sheriff’s Department is
100
available within five business days.
101
investigate. Mr. Adams advised that the vandalism is documented.
Mr.
Mr. Miller asked if the Sheriff’s Department will
3
FIDDLER’S CREEK CDD #2
January 27, 2016
102
Mr. Klug asked if a camera system should be installed, to monitor the area, prior to
103
replacing the trees. Mr. Miller suggested talking to the insurance agent, first, to see if vandalism
104
coverage is available. Mr. Klug believed that the vandalism was an act of motivation and not
105
random and that the individual has an objection to the visual obstruction of the trees to the
106
fountain. Mr. Klug recalled that, several months ago, it was decided that the trees should remain.
107
Ms. Crismond received several emails from Veneta residents complaining about the
108
bougainvillea trees and requesting that the trees be cut down or trimmed back. Mr. Klug
109
anticipated a reoccurrence if a monitoring device is not installed.
110
Mr. Miller was in favor of considering security cameras that could be viewed by the
111
rover. Mr. Albeit is working with TEM Systems, Inc., (TEM), and suggested offering a reward
112
for information leading to the apprehension of the criminal. Mr. Miller disagreed. Mr. Albeit
113
noted that a person can provide information anonymously. In response to Mr. Miller’s question,
114
Mr. Albeit stated that the vandalism occurred last week; he just started talking to TEM about a
115
power source, which is off of the fountain.
116
necessary. Mr. Albeit is working with TEM on hard wire cameras. Ms. DiNardo asked if the
117
cameras will be installed this year or next year. Mr. Albeit indicated that, once the logistics are
118
finalized, he will present a proposal from TEM. A suggestion was made to purchase a game
119
camera, which is inexpensive and works by motion sensor. Mr. Albeit will research it.
Mr. Klug pointed out that fiber optics were
120
Ms. DiNardo felt that it was counterproductive to install additional plantings, if there was
121
a security issue. The priority should be security cameras, which will resolve the issues with
122
people going near the fountains.

THIRD ORDER OF BUSINESS
Special Counsel Update:
Activities
Litigation
Ms. Robinson had nothing to report, as court was not in session.
128
Mr. Miller was disappointed, as he expected a ruling by this meeting. Ms. Robinson
129
expected to receive the ruling, as, in an unrelated matter with Judge Shenko, the judge
130
acknowledged his plan to dedicate his holiday to work on the ruling; however, the judge’s
131
schedule and the holidays, caused a delay.
132
Mr. Miller voiced his opinion that it should not take long to sign proposed orders, despite
133
how busy the judge is. Ms. Robinson explained that the intention was to use the written orders
4
FIDDLER’S CREEK CDD #2
January 27, 2016
134
he requested, in Word format, via email, to complete the order; however, U.S. Bank’s order was
135
30 pages. Mr. Miller surmised that the judge was anticipating an appeal. Ms. Robinson agreed,
136
as she recalled the judge stating, several times, during the hearing, that an appeal was likely.
137
In response to Ms. DiNardo’s question, Ms. Robinson indicated that the judge has had the
138
orders since mid-November and there is no time limit in state court. Mr. Pires suspected that a
139
case that he is involved in, which was assigned to Judge Shenko, may be taking a great deal of
140
Judge Shenko’s time, as many summary judgments were requested, in advance of a February
141
trial date. Mr. Pires felt that Judge Shenko was conscientious and his approach to ensuring a
142
good record and order for appeal are due to issues in Collier County, in the past two years. Mr.
143
Miller believed that decisions from prior judges played a part. Mr. Pires agreed.
144
Mr. Miller hoped that Judge Shenko was compiling a record, so that, if the ruling was in
145
the CDD’s favor, it would be difficult to overturn, on appeal. Ms. Robinson concurred and noted
146
no concerns about the delay, other than the holidays. Mr. Miller pointed out that the District is at
147
a standstill, as discovery issues are shaped by determination; therefore, it is futile to schedule
148
depositions or submit additional interrogatories. Ms. Robinson agreed.

FIFTH ORDER OF BUSINESS
158
The wall panels are being installed and landscaping will be installed, at the end of February.
Mr. Cole reported that work commenced on the US 41 wall, by the construction entrance.
159
Mr. Miller recalled that, last year, an Aviamar resident complained about noise and
160
requested sound barriers; however, a representative from the Florida Department of
161
Transportation (FDOT) indicated that sound barriers would not be installed. Mr. Cole pointed
162
out that these are landscape walls, not sound walls. Mr. Adams noted that landscape buffer walls
163
are smaller than typical sound walls. Mr. Cole advised that the landscape wall will start at the
164
end of the sound wall, behind the mobile home park. In response to Mr. Robertson’s question,
165
Mr. Cole stated that the linear footage of the landscape buffer wall is 800’.
5
FIDDLER’S CREEK CDD #2
166
January 27, 2016
In response to Mr. Miller’s question, Mr. Cole indicated that the sound impacts from the
167
landscape buffer wall would be minimal.
Ms. DiNardo had the same recollection. Mr. Cole
168
explained out that the walls help attenuate the sound for a home within 200’ of the right-of-way
169
(ROW).
170
Mr. Cole reported that Waste Management hydraulic fluid spills occurred in Menaggio.
171
He started receiving emails about it on Sunday. Mr. Klug asked if there was a dribble or single
172
dump of fluid. Mr. Cole stated that, when Waste Management stopped to pick up a canister, a
173
blob of hydraulic fluid spilled onto the pavement, similar to what occurred on Cherry Oaks Trail,
174
although not as bad. Mr. Klug asked if the spill occurred on both sides of the street. Mr. Cole
175
replied affirmatively.
176
177
Mr. Tony Spinelli, President of the Menaggio HOA, indicated that not all of the spill
areas were cleaned.
178
Mr. Cole reported that staff was on site on Monday, took pictures and emailed them to
179
Mr. Dan Rodriguez, Collier County Solid and Hazardous Waste Management Division Director.
180
Yesterday, Mr. Rodriguez replied: “Thank you for reporting this to me. I will call Larry Berg of
181
Waste Management to find out what is going on here. I will also have a new truck on your
182
route”. Mr. Cole indicated that Ms. Crismond mentioned that Waste Management has brand
183
new trucks which, supposedly, are leak prone. Mr. Miller asked what Mr. Rodriguez meant by a
184
new truck. Mr. Cole will follow up.
185
Mr. Klug asked if the origin of the spilled liquid related to the mechanics of the truck or
186
the hydraulics, as the spill on Corfu Court was a hydraulic spill. Mr. Cole indicated that it was a
187
hydraulic spill but the spill on Cherry Oaks Trail, occurring several years ago, was oil, not
188
hydraulic fluid. Mr. Cole pointed out that Mr. Berg, of Waste Management, worked with the
189
District on past spills but the county must contact Mr. Berg when Waste Management spills
190
occur. Mr. Cole will follow up with Mr. Rodriguez.
191
Mr. Klug asked if the pavement will be pressure washed or repaved. Mr. Bob Fried, a
192
resident, advised that the spill occurred last Thursday and, on Saturday morning, Waste
193
Management power washed the road, from the pool house to the cul-de-sac but, when the road
194
dried, the spill was still visible.
195
Ms. DiNardo asked if Mr. Cole had difficulties working with Waste Management. Mr.
196
Cole recalled that, when the major spill occurred, in Aviamar and on Cherry Oaks Trail, he and
6
FIDDLER’S CREEK CDD #2
January 27, 2016
197
Mr. Pires met with Waste Management, several times; however, that was a larger repair. The
198
issue was eventually resolved but it required a lot of effort. Mr. Miller recalled that the county’s
199
intervention was helpful.
200
Mr. Pires indicated that, under the Franchise Agreement between Collier County and
201
Waste Management, the county has discretion to ensure that the results are appropriate and
202
effective. Mr. Rodriguez evaluated the road and advised Waste Management that the action
203
taken by Waste Management was not sufficient and milling and repaving were necessary.
204
Mr. Miller asked what other areas were involved. Mr. Spinelli indicated that the cul-de-
205
sac area was affected. Mr. Cole advised that the spill is more visible when the pavement is dry.
206
Mr. Cole will follow up with Mr. Rodriguez and conduct another inspection to determine the
207
results of the cleaning.
208
209
Mr. Klug agreed with Mr. Fried that pressure washing the roads was ineffective. Mr.
Miller anticipated having to mill the road.
210
In response to Mr. Miller’s question, Mr. Cole confirmed that he assessed the cul-de-sac
211
and noticed distinct stains that were larger than basic dribbles. There was a trail, leading from
212
one canister to the next.
213
Ms. DiNardo believed that Waste Management acknowledged the issue, as they sent
214
someone out, immediately, and were responsible for resolving the issue. Mr. Cole pointed out
215
that Cherry Oaks Trail was re-paved in two to three months. Mr. Klug noted that Waste
216
Management was quick to resolve the spill on Corfu Court. Ms. Benedetti reported the spill on
217
Cherry Oaks Trail to Waste Management, at the end of November and, by the beginning of
218
January, Waste Management re-paved the roads, as pressure washing was ineffective. It required
219
Mr. Rodriguez’s involvement to get Waste Management to repave the roads. Mr. Cole noted that
220
700’ feet of roadway was repaved. Mr. Benedetti felt that Waste Management was aware of the
221
problems.
222
223
In response to a question, Mr. Cole indicated that roads can be sealed; however, the roads
must be re-sealed every few years.
224
Mr. Fried suggested that Mr. Cole evaluate Campanile Circle, in Menaggio, to determine
225
if Waste Management cleaned the spill areas. Mr. Fried confirmed that the cul-de-sac was dry,
226
yesterday. Mr. Cole indicated that a meeting will be planned, shortly.
7
FIDDLER’S CREEK CDD #2
January 27, 2016
227
Mr. Cole presented Draw #126, for approximately $25,000, for the Series 2005 A/B
228
bonds; $9,000 was for sidewalk and handicap ramps in Phase 5, Unit 2, $1,500 was for the east
229
entry gate by the old Duda Farms entrance, for construction traffic, and soft costs of $10,500, for
230
work performed by Q. Grady Minor & Associates, P.A. (Grady Minor) to coordinate the
231
preliminary acceptance of the Phase 5, Unit 2 subdivision improvements, which they received,
232
yesterday.
233
necessary for final approval.
The sidewalk improvements that Grady Minor completed were the last item
234
Regarding the Series 2005 bond, Mr. Cole provided a revised cost estimate to complete
235
the remaining work. There is approximately $1 million remaining in the construction budget.
236
He noted that Item 3, the asphalt striping and curb repair amount, was reduced to $500,000, due
237
to completion of the Aviamar Phase 5, Unit 2 work and the total cost of Item 5, the 951 and
238
Championship Parkway traffic signal, was changed to $232,000, based on the final traffic light
239
expenses. In response to Mr. Miller’s question, Mr. Cole indicated that he will receive the final
240
amount after the contractor receives final payment, upon completion of several punch list items
241
and final inspection by Collier County. The contractor completed the punch list items and is
242
waiting for a response from the county. Mr. Cole anticipated final completion in the next two
243
months. Mr. Miller pointed out that CDD #1 has the money and CDD #2 will not pay CDD #1
244
until this matter is resolved.
245
Mr. Miller asked what projects were planned for the $200,000. Mr. Cole indicated that
246
an existing construction entrance, just south of the construction gate, will be closed when the
247
majority of the Aviamar construction is completed. In response to Mr. Miller’s question, Mr.
248
Cole advised that a portion of the $200,000 is for gatehouse upgrades for the future permanent
249
gatehouse. Mr. Miller asked if this is the gatehouse that is part of the litigation to recover
250
$650,000 from US bank. Mr. Cole replied affirmatively. Ms. DiNardo questioned the total cost,
251
once completed. Mr. Cole estimated $300,000 to $500,000 but some of the money is security
252
and technology related. In response to Ms. DiNardo’s question, Mr. Miller noted that the
253
projected gatehouse completion is predicated on the status of the litigation.
254
Mr. Miller asked what the 2003 bond covers. Mr. Cole indicated it is for the existing
255
construction entrance, on Fiddler’s Creek Parkway, south of the Veneta fountain. The cost will
256
cover paving removal and landscaping installation.
8
FIDDLER’S CREEK CDD #2
257
January 27, 2016
Mr. Klug asked if the second lift of asphalt and striping is for Campanile Circle. Mr.
258
Cole indicated that it is for the southern portion of Campanile Circle.
Mr. Cole and Ms.
259
Crismond spoke about restriping the entry to the Aviamar fountain and recommended that the
260
Fiddler’s Creek Parkway crosswalk, at the Veneta fountain, should be restriped. Mr. Cole will
261
provide an inventory of the areas needing restriping to Ms. Crismond and obtain estimates. Mr.
262
Cole planned to complete the Campanile Circle repaving and restriping at the same time as the
263
Fiddler’s Creek Parkway crosswalk restriping, in April or May.
264
As requested, at the last meeting, Mr. Cole provided full-size maps of Fiddler’s Creek.
265
Mr. Klug asked if all Campanile curb repairs were completed and the asphalt overlay and
266
267
268
striping are pending. Mr. Cole replied affirmatively.
Mr. Cole recalled that the Serena road lease was delayed, due to a paint spill. The paint
was removed.
269
Mr. Spinelli asked when the signs will be removed at the front entrance, on Fiddler’s
270
Creek Parkway, exiting the community. Mr. Cole indicated that the signs will be removed after
271
the final inspection, which is expected in the next few weeks.
272
Mr. Robertson recalled that, two years ago, CDD #1 installed a streetlight, in the median
273
at the end of Fiddler’s Creek Parkway, and asked if a similar streetlight can be installed, on
274
Sandpiper Drive, between the new gatehouse and US 41, as it is very dark at night. Mr. Cole
275
will investigate. Mr. Miller agreed, due to the future development of Oyster Harbor, and asked if
276
commencing the process to install a traffic light on US 41 was reasonable. Mr. Adams pointed
277
out that a warrant study would need to be conducted, which is relatively inexpensive. Ms.
278
DiNardo felt that this was premature.
279
280
Mr. Adams recommended, when the decision is made to conduct the warrant study, in the
middle of the season.
281
Mr. Spinelli asked if the trees can be cut back at the back exit, on Sandpiper Drive,
282
entering onto US 41, as there is a visibility issue. Mr. Adams anticipated that the road ROW will
283
be raised with the completion of the entrance onto US 41. Mr. Cole will view the area.

289
significant portion of the on-roll assessment revenue collections were received in December,
290
which is typical. 67% was collected; however, a large portion of the on-roll assessments are paid
291
by the developer for platted units and the developer typically waits until the last week of March
292
to pay. Expenses were in line, with the exception of “Legal advertising”, due to publishing
293
requirements for the annexation of the CDD property, which was not anticipated.
294
Mr. Robertson pointed out that, due to receipt of the on-roll assessments, the District has
295
seven-and-a-half months of cash readily available. Mr. Adams noted that the District is in good
296
shape. Mr. Robertson wondered if the line of credit was necessary. Mr. Adams recommended
297
proceeding with the line of credit.
298
Mr. Klug asked why “Interest & miscellaneous” was 475% of the budget. Mr. Adams
299
explained that the Tax Collector and Property Appraiser take the full amount of their
300
percentages, at the beginning of the fiscal year, and perform a reconciliation over all special
301
districts and provide a credit back to the District, at the end of the fiscal year. Mr. Adams
302
surmised that the check arrived earlier than expected and this is considered “found money”.
303
Regarding the line of credit with Iberia Bank, Mr. Adams reported that, according to a
304
representative from Iberia Bank, there is no value in the District moving all of its operating
305
accounts to Iberia Bank. Iberia Bank said no to a reduction of the loan fee, could not guarantee
306
locking in the interest rate and only reduced the attorney’s fees from $9,500 to $7,500.
In response to Mr. Miller’s question, Mr. Adams indicated that a flat fee was proposed, as
307
308
long as there was not a tremendous amount of negotiation.
309
Regarding the interest rate, Iberia Bank refused to provide a commitment on future
310
renewals; future rates will be based on the market rate, which fluctuates. The loan fee is locked
311
in at a quarter of a point, amounting to $1,250, annually. Typically, Iberia Bank charges one half
312
to one full point but felt that a quarter of a point was more than fair, with a $300,000 required
313
balance, identical to what was negotiated for CDD #1. Mr. Adams noted that the representative
314
realized that the District would not be depositing money, as the District receives no revenues
315
until December or January, and, to the extent that the District wanted to draw upon it, in the later
316
part of the fiscal year, between October 1 and the end of December, the District has the ability to
317
do so.
10
FIDDLER’S CREEK CDD #2
January 27, 2016
318
Mr. Adams recommended that the District not move their operating accounts to Iberia
319
Bank, since there was no incentive to do so. There is a requirement for a minimal balance in a
320
money market account.
321
The Board directed Mr. Adams to proceed with obtaining the line of credit. Mr. Adams
322
will place this item on the February agenda and include a term sheet and resolution, so the Board
323
can direct Staff to finalize the documents.
324
Mr. Robertson felt that having a lock-in on the rate was wishful thinking. Mr. Miller
325
recalled that, in exchange for moving the operating accounts to Iberia Bank, the Board wanted
326
concessions. Mr. Adams stated that this was not important to Iberia Bank. Mr. Miller believed
327
that the $1,200 commitment fee is standard. Mr. Klug commented that $1,200 is minimal. Mr.
328
Pires indicated that his fees were significantly less than the fees charged by Iberia Bank, as there
329
is less preparation work for CDD #2, versus CDD #1.

351
Mr. Klug referred to Lines 253 through 255 and asked if Mr. Albeit’s statement preceded
352
the award of the landscape services contract or was after this discussion. Mr. Adams recalled
353
that Mr. Albeit questioned the shortfall amount and Mr. Adams explained that some of the
354
shortfall would be offset by the contingency. Mr. Adams did not recall Mr. Albeit saying that
355
the shortfall would be $283,896, not $68,896.
356
Mr. Albeit explained that these numbers were in the financial report and, compared to
357
what was budgeted, the difference was $283,896, and the variance was $68,896. Mr. Adams will
358
amend the record to state “Mr. Albeit questioned the shortfall of $283,896.”
359
The following changes were made:
360
Line 253: Change “believed that the shortfall would be $283,896, not $68,896” to

389
longer be in default”
390
Mr. Miller reported that, as of a couple of days ago, ITG had not agreed to the principal
391
balance and Wilmington Trust did not make the payment. Mr. Miller indicated that, since
392
monies were not paid and ITG did not agree to the principal balance, the Interpleader is in effect.
393
Line 76: Change “the bonds” to “2003 A bonds”
394

NINTH ORDER OF BUSINESS
Other Business
Mr. Adams reported that, based on statistics from the Department of Safety, in response
426
to the number of warnings versus citations, and observations that there are more speeding and
427
stop signs violations. CDD #1’s Chair directed District Counsel to prepare a letter to the Sheriff,
428
requesting that the Sheriff look into and address inefficiencies in the off-duty patrols. CDD #1
429
did not feel that they were getting “the bang for our buck” because not enough citations were
430
issued.
431
Mr. Miller questioned whether this was endearing the District to the Sheriff. Mr. Adams
432
did not know if the District would get anywhere but it will communicate the District’s frustration
433
in not receiving response that is expected.
434
Mr. Pires reported that CDD #1 Chair Brougham provided statistics of warnings versus
435
citations over the years from 2009, forward, which was 25% in 2009, 12.6% in 2010, 21.7% in
436
2011, 17.6% in 2012, 25.6% in 2013, 12% in 2014 and 6.8% in 2015.
437
In response to Ms. DiNardo’s question, Mr. Pires indicated that Mr. Brougham was
438
concerned about increased volume, increased residents and increased violations. Mr. Brougham
439
wanted the Sheriffs to consider exercising discretion.
440
Mr. Miller felt that the District pointing out inefficiencies in the Sheriff Department’s
441
operation would not endear the District to the Sheriff. Mr. Pires noted that was not the intent of
442
the Board, as CDD #1 invited Lieutenant Mullholland and Collier County Sheriff Kevin
443
Rambosk to discuss this issue.
444
Ms. DiNardo asked if there is a possibility that people are obeying the law and it was not
445
necessary to write the letter. Mr. Adams indicated that the biggest concern was the statistics and
446
the percentage of traffic stops, versus warnings, versus citations. The percentages of citations to
447
warnings was skewed in the past two years; 6.8% in 2015 to .04% in 2016. Ms. DiNardo
14
FIDDLER’S CREEK CDD #2
January 27, 2016
448
understood but questioned if this was necessary, as the belief is that the Sheriffs are not
449
aggressive, as in the past. Mr. Adams stressed that the statistics for citations to warnings show a
450
significant decrease over a three-year period.
451
Mr. Pires pointed out that the purpose of the letter was to recognize that the Sheriffs have
452
discretion, which the Board appreciates, and is requesting suggestions from the Sheriff. Mr.
453
Miller agreed, if the letter is phrased in a more pleasant way. Mr. Pires acknowledged that the
454
letter is not confrontational and addresses the concerns.
455
Regarding Ms. DiNardo’s comments, Mr. Miller noticed an enormous number of cars
456
speeding in Chiasso at night, since the houses are now occupied. Ms. DiNardo asked if there are
457
patrols at night. Mr. Adams indicated that there are random patrols in four-hour shifts. In
458
response to Ms. DiNardo’s question, Mr. Miller advised that the speeding occurs between 7:30
459
p.m. and 8:00 p.m.
460
Mr. Fried asked if a citation is a ticket. Mr. Miller replied affirmatively. Mr. Fried asked
461
if the Sheriffs are harsh. Mr. Miller stated that the Sheriffs are too lenient. Mr. Adams clarified
462
that there are too many warnings and not enough citations. Mr. Fried agreed. Ms. Crismond
463
pointed out that the Sheriffs do not like to give citations.
464
According to Mr. Brougham, Mr. Pires explained that the number of stops in 2009 was
465
226 in 2009, 237 in 2010, 207 in 2011, 244 in 2012, 367 in 2013, 375 in 2014 and 264 in 2015.
466
Mr. Miller pointed out that the population increased.
467
In response to Ms. DiNardo’s question, Mr. Adams indicated that the statistics are overall
468
and random, although, when Ms. Crismond receives feedback from the community and the
469
Board that there are hot spots, she will communicate the information to the off-duty coordinator.
470
Mr. Adams agreed that there are concerns but the location and method of enforcement are at the
471
Sheriff’s discretion.
472
Mr. Miller acknowledged that the community is becoming more populous and it is
473
expanding and there must be enforcement for more than four hours, as some Sheriffs will sit and
474
wait for people who run stop signs. Mr. Miller observed more violations at night.
475
Ms. Crismond recalled that at the CDD #1 meeting, this morning, major concerns were
476
addressed about early morning traffic off of Sandpiper Drive onto Fiddler’s Creek Parkway and
477
construction traffic from 3:00 p.m., to 5:00 p.m. Mr. Klug disagreed, as he felt the issue was
478
residents thinking that stop signs are optional. Ms. Crismond noted that the largest number of
15
FIDDLER’S CREEK CDD #2
January 27, 2016
479
violations are for stop sign violations. Mr. Miller wondered how people can miss the stop signs
480
when there are warning signs indicating that there are stop signs ahead. Mr. Robertson pointed
481
out that this issue has been discussed for over ten years and felt that letters to the Sheriff will
482
“irritate them”.
483
Mr. Adams reported that the CDD #1 Board approved sending the letter first; then, an
484
invitation will be extended to Sheriff Rambosk and Lieutenant Mullholland to speak to the
485
Board. The CDD #1 Board also approved off-duty Sheriffs providing daily patrols, for a two-
486
week period in February, pending availability. The Board felt that providing a presence will
487
curb the behavior in the other direction.
488
Mr. Klug surmised that the desired end result is to issue more tickets and, hopefully,
489
word will spread and everyone will slow down. Mr. Adams noted that there are secondary
490
benefits, such as peer pressure and the embarrassment of being pulled over in your own
491
community. Mr. Adams requested that the Board approve this request by the CDD #1 Board, for
492
a two-week period.
493
494
Ms. DiNardo requested rephrasing the letter to Sheriff Rambosk, as it gives the
impression that the Board is monitoring the Sheriff.
495
496
Mr. Adams suggested that the CDD #2 Board stand back on this one and let CDD #1
send the letter and see where it leads. The Board agreed.
497
Mr. Adams will invite Sheriff Rambosk and Lieutenant Mullholland to the next Board
498
meeting. CDD #2’s meeting will be advertised 30 minutes earlier; in the last 30 minutes, CDD
499
#1 will commence the joint discussion. Mr. Adams noted that there could be a timing issue with
500
advertising requirements depending on response time from the Sheriff’s office.
501
Mr. Miller asked how much the off-duty officers are paid. Mr. Adams estimated $45 per
502
hour, for a four-hour minimum. Mr. Adams indicated that Ms. Crismond was directed by the
503
CDD #1 Board to contact the Florida Highway Patrol (FHP).

respond whether additional documents are needed or provide his approval, no later than Friday.
514
He will work with Ms. Valarie Lord.

522
at this location.

525
Operations Manager (to be provided under separate cover)
Ms. Crismond reported that several Ficus trees abutting the pump houses must be cut
down and removed. The cost will be shared with CDD #1 because it impacts the pump stations.
526
Ms. DiNardo asked if the removal is imperative. Ms. Crismond replied affirmatively, as
527
the Ficus trees will cause damage to the foundation and the piping underneath the pump houses.
528
In response to Ms. DiNardo’s question, Ms. Crismond indicated that the plant material is not
529
known, at this time, as the priority is cutting down the trees; however, CDD #2 will be
530
responsible for replacement.
531
Mr. Miller asked how close the trees are to becoming a calamity. Ms. Crismond replied
532
close enough, as Staff is already removing roots. Root barriers are not effective, due to the
533
downward growth. Staff will stump grind and chemically treat the roots to prevent re-growth.
534
In response to Ms. DiNardo’s question, Ms. Crismond indicated that nine Ficus trees are
535
planted around two pump stations. Ms. DiNardo voiced concern that the area will be bare. Ms.
536
Crismond recommended cutting the trees down first and will provide a proposal for
537
replacements, at a later time. Ms. DiNardo commented that the cost for cutting is known but not
538
the replacement cost and the Board should have the “full picture” versus “half a picture”. Ms.
539
Crismond stressed that the Ficus trees must be cut out, regardless, as the roots will cause serious
540
damage.
17
FIDDLER’S CREEK CDD #2
January 27, 2016
541
Mr. Klug asked about the large disparity between Davey Tree and the other bidders. Ms.
542
Crismond indicated that Davey Tree is the District’s contractor and LandCare and GulfScapes
543
would probably hire a subcontractor to perform the work.
544
545
Mr. Adams noted no impacts with the removal of the trees because, when the pump
house was originally developed, a Ficus buffer was placed around it, which has matured.
546
Ms. DiNardo reiterated her request for information on the replacement cost. Mr. Adams
547
suggested first viewing impact of the removed trees, as he felt that no plantings would be
548
necessary.
549
Mr. Miller asked if this request must go through the Landscape Committee. Mr. Adams
550
replied no, because the trees are not within the corridors; they are offsite. In response to Mr.
551
Miller’s request, Mr. Adams will advise the Landscape Committee. Mr. Miller asked Mr.
552
Adams to speak with Ms. Benedetti.
553
Mr. Klug pointed out that GulfScapes has the contract for the Aviamar section and asked
554
Ms. Crismond if she spoke with GulfScapes about maintaining the entrance into Oyster Harbor
555
and all the way down Sandpiper Drive, as the landscaping is pristine and he does not want the
556
Oyster Harbor entrance to look like the Fiddler’s Creek Parkway entrance. Ms. Crismond
557
replied affirmatively.
558
559
In response to a question, Ms. Crismond indicated that LandCare is replacing the dead
palm tree.
560
Mr. Klug asked if the Board must take action on the Ficus trees. Mr. Robertson indicated
561
that Staff must speak to the Landscape Committee, first. Mr. Adams reported that a motion is
562
not required, as this is an informational item. Mr. Miller stated that, of the three proposals,
563
Davey Tree should be awarded the contract.
564
Mr. Klug disagreed with Ms. Benedetti’s observation that the bougainvilleas are in bad
565
shape. He felt that her assessment was premature. Ms. Crismond noted that bougainvilleas are
566
beautiful when they are in bloom. Mr. Klug did not want to cut down the bougainvilleas. Ms.
567
DiNardo stated that, if a few die, the bougainvilleas can be replenished. Mr. Adams reported that
568
several beds need to be replaced. Ms. DiNardo did not want to remove all of the bougainvilleas
569
and start all over.
570
571
Mr. Pires clarified that the Naples Lending affidavit was discussed with Mr. Frank Harris,
an attorney, and he will provide an opinion.
