The Board voted unanimously in favor and the motion was passe& APPROVAL OF JANUARY 4, 2012 REGULAR SESSION MINUTES Vice Chairman Cravens made a motion, second by Dr. Trecker to approve the January 4, 2012 Regular Session minutes as resented. The Board voted unanimous) in favor and the motion was assed. W Pelican Bay Services Division Board Regular Session Minutes February 1, 2012 Mr. Dorrill explained landscaping and irrigation improvements at the North Tram station were only made in the medians and adjacent areas of the new crossing. The remaining area where there is sod was not part of the project's scope. PATHWAYS Mr. Dorrill presented the proposed pathways widening project as having evolved from the Pelican Bay Foundation's strategic master planning study in 2009 and Community Improvement Plan's many workshops and town hall meetings held jointly with the Foundation's Strategic Planning Committee and Pelican Bay Services Division Board in 2010 and 2011. The proposed project consists of replacing the five feet wide pathways with eight feet wide asphalt pathways because since the community was built more than thirty years ago the standards have changed and more pedestrians and bicyclists are sharing the pathways. The minimum code recognized multiuse pathway is ten feet to as wide as twelve. However space limitations in the road right -of -way cannot accommodate ten feet wide pathways. The question to be considered today is whether the Board would like to continue with eight feet wide pathways that would meander in a uniformed fashion to improve line of sight issues at cross streets and service driveways, and to avoid having to remove trees and develop a plan to replace trees. Mr. Dorrill reported on January 4, the Board directed staff to review the proposed pathways widening project with residents of adjacent condominiums and comments were received, some were well- founded, and some were negative in regards to perceived impact. However this project has been in the planning process for three years and was conceived for the greater good of the community. Mr. Jim Carr, P.E. explained the existing five feet wide pathways could be widened up to eight feet and still be classified as a sidewalk primarily for pedestrians, but bicyclists are not prohibited from riding on the pathway. He advised against installing signage to direct traffic on the pathways and cited a 2007 County Attorney opinion that bicyclists must yield the right of way to pedestrians. To be classified as shared, multi -use pathways, the standard is a minimum of ten feet wide, but twelve is preferred The current right of way permit was approved for widening the pathways to eight feet. If the project was changed to widen less than eight feet, the savings would be approximately $20,000. Installation of root barriers underneath carries the bulk of expense. The code requires maintenance of what the standard was when built. Vice Chairman Cravens acknowledged pathways maintenance is the County's responsibility, but not being done. Chairman Dallas pointed out the Services Division has funds available that are intended for completing the proposed pathways widening and various other Community Improvement Plan projects then opened the floor for audience com AUDIENCE COMMENTS Ten residents expressed opposition to the proposed pathways widening project for various reasons: 1 at wider pathways would encourage more bicycle traffic on the pathways, creating unsafe conditions, espe at entranc driveways; 2) objected to removing trees obstructing proposed route of wider pathway; and 3) dis t ways were "crowded" or pedestrians and bicyclists usage was increasing and therefore there was no justifi r the expense. Suggestions were made 1) to install bicycle lanes in the roadway and 2) perform a commu be ing forward with the project. Public speakers opposing the project were Paul Liberti (Coronado); Bru a ington Club); Diane Lustig (Hyde Park); Henry Bachman (Claridge); Marcia Cravens (Dorche Me ay Colony); Dave Ritger (Oakmont); Roy Curbow (Montenero); John Domenie; and Elaine Da _ onte Additionally, Coronado residents submitted two petitions opposing the project. Seven residents supported the proposed pathways widening pr fo reas s: derived from the Community Improvement Plan study; 2) both the Foundation's Strategic Pla ee ' elican Bay Services Division Board who agreed the pathways should be widened to eight feet as ende improvements should be made to maintain property values; and 4) to uphold Pelican Bay's premier commu Public speakers in favor of widening the 8528 Pelican Bay Services Division Board Regular Session Minutes February 1, 2012 pathways were Bill McCormick (Bay Colony); Calvin Grayson (Serendipity); Charles Bodo (Crown Colony /Strategic Planning Committee); Carson Beadle (Strategic Planning Committee); Howard Boyd (Chateaumere); Ray Bozzacco (St. Kitts); and Jack Thompson (St. Maarten/St. Thomas). Mr. Jim Hoppensteadt supported the project that was carefully planned over a long period, due diligence was done, and that residents had already paid for through property taxes. There were no additional public speakers and Chairman Dallas closed the audience comments session. DISCUSSION The Board discussed how to proceed with the proposed pathways widening project. Ms. O'Brien recommended before moving forward the Board should do a survey to gauge public sentiment. Mr. Dorrill said if the Board decided to do a survey staff would hire an unbiased entity to prepare questions and implement in a format that would achieve statistically significant results. Also the Board would need to consider the commercial properties who do not usually want to spend their money on residential improvements. The Board acknowledged that the pathways were in poor shape, it was the County's responsibility to maintain the pathways, and whether to lobby Commissioner Hiller for support. Consensus was that the pathways needed to be redone, but the issue was deciding whether to widen and by how many feet, safety issues, and circumnavigating trees. Mr. Dorrill would look into what the County is planning for roadway and pathway maintenance for Fiscal Year 2013 and report back. FAILED MOTION Mr. Gibson made a motion, second by Mr. Levy to proceed with the pathways project, modifying the eight foot width to flex down to six feet minimum with reasonable transitions (along the west side of Pelican Bay Boulevard beginning with the section from The Commons to the North Tram station) and with the following caveats: (and where the engineer and/or landscape architect determines it is feasible) 1) if a tree is taken out, or what is a last ditch effort to do so then the tree would be replaced somewhere in- kind close by; and 2) to address safety issues at driveways, that pathways in no instance be any closer to buildings. Chairman Dallas requested a roll call vote. The Board voted 3 in favor (Mr. Gibson, Chairman Dallas, and Mr. Levy), 5 opposed (Dr. Trecker. Vice Chairman Cravens. Mr. Chandler. Mr. Iaizzo, and Ms. O'Brien) and the motion failed. PASSING MOTION (Pathways failed motion and passing motion transcription pages 85 Mr. Dorrill reported staff had confirmed agency permitting req Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) is requiring a nationwid4"d District (SFWMD) is not requiring a letter of modification Environmental Protection (FDEP) affirmed through a letter 8529 berm restoration project. The South Florida Water Management permit; and Florida Department of within the drainage easement there are no J Pelican Bay Services Division Board Regular Session Minutes February 1, 2012 restrictions to trim or make alterations to mangroves. Wilson Miller - Stantec environmental consultants have suggested exploring amending the site development plan. However, Mr. Dorrill said staff has gone beyond what is reasonable to obtain the required permitting for what is considered a maintenance project. Staff plans to put this project out to bid, so that work can begin this summer. To accommodate equipment and fill, the south berm may need to be partially closed at times for a period of about 3 -4 weeks. Vice Chairman Cravens was concerned about the south berm being inaccessible. Mr. Dorrill assured that staff would work with the Foundation to provide necessary access to residents and trams. Dr. Trecker distributed a legal opinion that he was concerned about stating the Foundation owned the berm and requested clarification because the Pelican Bay Services Division is spending its funds on private property. Mr. Dorrill said there is no question that the land is owned by the Foundation. However the earthen berm was constructed with bond proceeds and therefore is an asset of the Pelican Bay Services Division. Drainage facilities and lakes are also assets of the Services Division because they are part of the master drainage system. The asphalt pathway atop the berm was built by the developer and maintained by the Foundation and owned by the Foundation. Mr. Hoppensteadt said he would provide documentation regarding ownership of the berm and the Board planned to discuss further at the March 7 meeting. MONTHLY FINANCIAL REPORT Mn Chandler made a motion, second by Mr. Levy to accept the financial report into the record. The Board voted unanimously in favor and the motion was passed CHAIRMAN'S REPORT CLAM BAY UPDATE Chairman Dallas reported there is no news regarding Seagate's lawsuit except the FDEP rejected Seagate's request for an administrative hearing; Mr. Feldhaus is still working with the County to develop a mutual agreement to manage Clam Bay; and the Legislature is expected to approve water quality regulations soon. ANNOUNCEMENTS Chairman Dallas announced upcoming meetings: Foundation Board Candidate Forums are February 7 and at 4 p.m.; Coastal Advisory Committee meets February 9 at 1 p.m.; Budget Subcommittee meets February 13 at 3 p.

ADJOURNMENT A motion, second and unanimous vote was made to ad'ourn the meetin at 4 :21 .m. Keith J. Dallas, Chairman Minutes by Lisa Resnick 3/2/2012 11:11:33 AM 8531 PELICAN BAY SERVICES DIVISION BOARD REGULAR SESSION SUPPLEMENTAL TRANSCRIPTION OF THE FEBRUARY 1, 2012 PATHWAYS DISCUSSION MOTIONS, SECONDS, VOTES MR. GIBSON: "I'd like to make a motion. I'd like to propose that this Board proceed with the pathways project, that the eight -foot width issue should be modified to flex [down to] six -feet minimum because I agree, I want the paths to be wider, but do we need eight feet? I don't think so. And I'd also like to put that caveat in because I know we've had a lot of people very sensitive to trees and nature and I'm one of them. If we have to take a tree out, for what is the last ditch effort to do that, that that tree be replaced somewhere in kind close by." DR. TRECKER: "I second the motion." MR. LEVY: "Would you entertain adding to that motion that a pathway in no instance will be any closer to a building driveway ?" MR. GIBSON: "I agree. That's a serious... I do ride bikes and I do walk and I haven't been hit yet, but I'll tell you what, I've almost been guilty of hitting people, but I'm not on the other side of that ... I know how dangerous that is." VICE CHAIRMAN CRAVENS ASKED MR. GIBSON: "So, you will accept the inclusion of that in the motion ?" MR. GIBSON: "Absolutely." MR. IAIZZO: "We have to agree to one more foot which way we are going to go. We are going to go toward the street." CHAIRMAN DALLAS: "We need to leave that up to the engineers to put it where it makes sense. We are not trying to disrupt the current landscaping, sometimes it just depends where we are, some places you can go toward the street, but sometimes there is something in the street, I mean there's trees between the pathway and the street, so you can't go that way." MR. CHANDLER ASKED MR. GIBSON what he meant about "flex down to six feet." MR. GIBSON: "We should proceed and not have the new pathway any narrower than six feet but perhaps there is a caveat to that with an engineering study." CHAIRMAN DALLAS SAID TO MR. GIBSON: "I thought your recommendation was six and eight." V%WM MR. GIBSON: "Yes, in between six and eight. There's areas where... and ur po a very good one because don't we want to encourage more bike riding in this community ?" MR. CHANDLER: "No, not on the pathways." DR. TRECKER: "Not on the sidewalks." 8532 Pelican Bay Services Division Board Regular Session Supplemental Transcription of the February 1, 2012 Pathways Discussion MR. GIBSON: "Okay, then we don't want to encourage it [more bike riding]. Okay. e Pelican Bay Services Division Board Regular Session Supplemental Transcription of the February 1, 2012 Pathways Discussion MR. GIBSON: "It should be very clear, but first we need a second." MR. DORRILL: "Dr. Trecker seconded it." DR. TRECKER: "I'm certainly willing to withdraw the second." CHAIRMAN DALLAS: "Is there another second to it ?" DR. TRECKER: "The motion was made then withdrawn and the second was also withdrawn." MR. CHANDLER: "I thought that Geoff said that he would revise his motion to be a six -foot pathway. Is that correct ?" MR. GIBSON: "Yes, because what I'm visualizing happening here this afternoon is that the whole project be ash - canned for who knows how long." MR. LEVY: "Well, let's first try to get it the way it was conceived to be in the Community Improvement Plan." MR. GIBSON: "You mean, no narrower than six feet and no wider than eight feet, reasonable transitions as verbalized by our [Administrator]." MR. LEVY: "Yeah." CHAIRMAN DALLAS: "So you do it wider where it works and slightly wider where it doesn't." MR. IAIZZO: "That will be crazy wavy." MR. LEVY: "No." CHAIRMAN DALLAS: "I don't think it will be that wavy. Not if you do it gradually." Someone in the audience wanted to make a comment CHAIRMAN DALLAS: "Sorry, we'll never get to a vote if we take too many comments and we've heard comments." MR. CHANDLER: "I joined the CIP committee maybe a third of the way through, maybe half of the way through, just before I was elected to the Board here, and I frankly don't recall any conversation when we were talking about this potential widening about the potential accidents that might happen to bringing more people onto the pathw with a wider pathway and the issues we have at the driveways, so even though maybe people put time into goi a certain way, I think we have to, if we see a problem, someone raises an issue to our attention, `hey there's issue here' I think we have to recognize it. That's why I'm on the thought that eight -foot is too wide. It' o g to encourage more bikes on the pathway, it's going to encourage more accidents, I think six is probably oing to bring people out of the streets onto the path, it's pretty wide. I would support six. CHAIRMAN DALLAS: "What is the motion we have in front of us? Is it eight or is it six ?" MR. GIBSON: "It was eight feet, no narrower than six." CHAIRMAN DALLAS: "Okay, is there a second to that ?" MR. LEVY: "Well, he also said that trees should be repl, buildings and driveways. I just want to get the full motion." CHAIRMAN DALLAS: "Yeah, with replace the trees in t MR. GIBSON: "There's no second." 8534 to the leways. i t � Pelican Bay Services Division Board Regular Session Supplemental Transcription of the February 1, 2012 Pathways Discussion VICE CHAIRMAN CRAVENS: "If there's no second then that's the end of the discussion." MR. LEVY: "I second it." CHAIRMAN DALLAS: "Yeah, there's the three points. Modified eight feet, no less than six feet, nice transitions; replace the trees in the area where we take them out, and again the idea is to minimize the number of trees we have to take out, that's why we're going to six feet in those areas probably; and at driveways, no closer to buildings. MR. LEVY: "And it's a safety issue at entrances and exits. CHAIRMAN DALLAS: "It's in there, that's a good point. Any discussion? I'm going to have a roll call vote just because I know it's going to be split. Start with the guy who did it." MR. GIBSON: "Aye." DR. TRECKER: "No." VICE CHAIRMAN CRAVENS: "No." CHAIRMAN DALLAS: "Yes." MR. CHANDLER: "No." MR. LEVY: "Yes." MR.IAIZZO: "No." MS.O'BRIEN: "No." MR. DORRILL: "Failed 3 -5." Mr. Gibson made a motion, second by Mr. Levy to proceed with the pathways project, modifying the eight foot width to flex down to six feet minimum with reasonable transitions (along the west side of Pelican Bay Boulevard beginning with the section from The Commons to the North Tram station) and with the following caveats: (and where the engineer and/or landscape architect determines it is feasible) 1) if a tree is taken out, for what is a last ditch effort to do so then the tree would be replaced somewhere in- kind close by; and 2) to address safety issues at driveways, that pathways in no instance be any closer to buildings. Chairman Dallas requested a roll call vote. The Board voted 3 in favor (Mr. Gibso Chairman Dallas, and Mr. Levy), S opposed (Dr. Trecker, Vice Chairman Cravens, Mr. Chandler, Iaizzo, and Ms. O'Brien) and the motion failed. CHAIRMAN DALLAS: "Okay, is there another motion ?" VICE CHAIRMAN CRAVENS: "I'll make a motion to make it a six -foot path throughout with were in Geoff s original motion." MR. CHANDLER: "I second." MR. MOFFATT: "What about phasing? Do the worst areas first ?" MR. GIBSON: "Till the whole thing gets done." CHAIRMAN DALLAS: "Yeah. What we're voting on this year is for that 8535 that Pelican Bay Services Division Board Regular Session Supplemental Transcription of the February 1, 2012 Pathways Discussion MR. LEVY: "I think Susan is raising a valid point. We're essentially replacing the pathway. That's essentially what we're doing. MR. GIBSON: "It's a foot wider. That's a big difference." MR. LEVY: "A foot wider. But if that's what we're doing, I think we should do the worst part of the pathways first. Why do this part of the pathways which is probably one of the best parts of the pathways that we have from The Commons down to the North Tram station." DR. TRECKER: "If that's the best then we're in bad shape." MR. LEVY: "The east side of the pathways are probably in worse shape." CHAIRMAN DALLAS: "You think the west is bad because you walked on the east. There are a lot of sections that are in bad shape. Other discussion ?" MR. DORRILL: "On the motion, I have detailed sketches and plans for the west side. If anything other than that requires me to go all the way back and redesign and re- permit and we've accomplished nothing. If we can stick to the project as conceived it is much easier to have the engineer issue an addendum for a width of six feet with some minor design changes. That's what I would recommend." MR. LEVY: "A number of speakers here recommended adding a foot - and - one -half which is six - and - one -half feet." CHAIRMAN DALLAS: "It's interesting. I Googled this when the discussion started coming up. It depends on the use of the pathway, but besides the eight to ten feet multi -use they say well five feet in a walkway, they are talking about pedestrians not bicycles. Five -foot bare minimum, six -foot, six - and - one - half -foot is really recommended..." MR. LEVY: "Well then let's go with six - and - one -half feet." CHAIRMAN DALLAS: "I feel more comfortable with six - and - one -half but there's some places where you probably can't get six - and - one -half in, but I'm having the same problem you are. The idea here was to make them wide enough so they aren't uncomfortable and we're on the bare minimum side of uncomfortable I think." DR. TRECKER: "You have a motion on the table for six feet." CHAIRMAN DALLAS: "That's true. Any more discussion ?" MR. LEVY ASKED VICE CHAIRMAN CRAVENS: "Would you reconsider revising your motion." Someone called out from the audience accusing the Chairman of already making a decision before the CHAIRMAN DALLAS responded he was voicing his opinion and the Board would make a VICE CHAIRMAN CRAVENS: "This is a substantial modification to what was originally proposed. DR TRECKER and MR. GIBSON agreed. MS. O'BRIEN: "So if we would prefer to have six - and - one -half feet, we would There was general agreement that if a member preferred any width other motion. DR. TRECKER: "Call the question."

MS.O'BRIEN: "No." The Board voted 5 in favor, 3 were opposed, and the motion was passed. MR. DORRILL would have the engineer issue the requisite addendum and "you will not see this again until it comes time to award the bid" that he estimated would be in April. Vice Chairman Cravens made a motion, second by Mr. Chandler "to make it a six-foot path throughout (along the west side of Pelican Bay Boulevard beginning with the section from The Commons to the North Tram station) "with the conditions that were in Geoff s [Gibson] original motion" (where the engineer and/or landscape architect determines it is feasible): 1) if a tree is taken out, for what is a last ditch effort to do so then the tree would be replaced somewhere in -kind close by; and 2) to address safety issues at driveways, that pathways in no instance be any closer to buildings.

Roll Call 2. Presentation by Kyle Lukasz on Pelican Bay's Water Management System 3. Discussion on Exotic Invasive Plants 4. Audience Comments 5. Adjournment ROLL CALL All Subcommittee members were present. PRESENTATION BY KYLE LUKASZ ON PELICAN BAY'S WATER MANAGEMENT SYSTEM Mr. Kyle Lukasz made a presentation about Pelican Bay's surface water management system that consists of six basins or drainage systems, forty -four (44) retention lakes that stormwater runoff flows through and is managed by the Pelican Bay Services Division at drainage easements, or at locations where stormwater is Dr. Ted Raia was concerned about contractors not applying fertilizer using best Mr. Lukasz explained the purpose of Tim Hall's ongoing nutrient management s identify areas where there are high nutrient levels and through the Foundation's authority implement landscaping best management practices. DISCUSSION ON EXOTIC INVASIVE PLANTS Chairman Cravens described exotic plants as any plant introduc occurred or roughly the year 1500. Exotic plants are not necessarily bad become invasive. According to the Florida Exotic Pest Plant Cou 11 be Man contact se plants can plants have escaped } f Landscape Water Management Subcommittee of the Pelican Bay Services Division Board Meeting Minutes January 10, 2012 cultivation, invaded natural communities, and disrupted and caused damage to the environment. Category II Exotic Invasive plants have not yet disrupted and caused damage to the environment, but have potential to do so. Coastal Zone Management department received a grant to remove exotics at Clam Pass Park and along the beach in Pelican Bay which are mainly Australian Pines, Brazilian Pepper, and Scaevola. Chairman Cravens is concerned about using exotic invasive plants in landscaping in Pelican Bay and would like to make a recommendation to the full Board that the Services Division stop using exotic invasive plants in landscaping in Pelican Bay and attempt to remove those that are already being used. The Subcommittee directed Mr. Lukasz to develop a landscaping plan to replace exotic invasive plants with non - invasive plants, such as Cocoplum, with a cost estimate that the Subcommittee could recommend to the full Board. ADJOURNMENT There was no further discussion and the meeting was adjourned at 2:30 p.m. Tom Cravens, Chairman 12 Minutes by Lisa Resnick 2/8/2012 11:48:03 AM March 7, 2012 Pelican Bay Services Division Board Regular Session 5ai. Administrator's Report Pathway Walk Notes & Statistics (Chandler) Page 1 of 4 From: John Chandler [mailto:johnchandler219 @gmail.com] Sent: Saturday, February 25, 2012 3:50 PM To: ResnickLisa Subject: PBB Pathway Data Lisa, Please forward this email and its attachments to all PBSD Board members as a one way communication. Since it appears that we will be discussing "Pathway Widening" at our 3/7 Board Meeting, I decided to gather some more facts in order to help us reach an informed decision. The attached "Pathway Walk Notes" detail the results of my walk along Pelican Bay Blvd, today. The "Pathway Walk Statistics" summarize and average observations that Dave Trecker and I have made at different times of the day. You will recall that accident data provided by Lisa last month showed that in the last four years, there were two reported car vs bike accidents on the boulevard and two on the pathway. Both accidents on the pathway occurred when cars exiting an association driveway struck bikes that came from the right (going north) on the pathway. Dave and my observations show about six times more bikes using the boulevard versus the pathway. Thus, the numbers indicate it is six times more dangerous to be riding a bike on the pathway on the west side of PBB than it is to be riding a bike in the boulevard. John Chandler Pelican Bay Boulevard Pathway Walk of 2/25/2012 Notes • Walked from the Commons to the North Tram Station and back, today. Took paper and pen and stopped and made notes along the way. • Started my walk at 10:55 AM and ended it at 11:38 AM • Counted the number of pedestrians that I encountered during this 2.6 mile walk. There were 18. This equals 7 per mile. • Counted the number of bikes that passed me on the pathway. There were 3. This equals roughly one per mile. • Counted the number of bikes that passed going southbound on the boulevard.

Administrator's Report Pathway Walk Notes & Statistics (Chandler) Page 3 of 4 Topic #625- 000 -007 January 1, 2009 Plans Preparation Manual Volume 1 — English Revised — January 1. 2012 8.5 Drainage and Utility Considerations Drainage inlets, grates and utility covers are potential problems for bicyclists. When a new roadway is designed, all such grates and covers should be kept out of the bicyclists' expected path. For RRR projects refer to Chapter 25.4.19.2 of this volume. Refer to Figure 3 -11, Curb Inlet and Gutter Inlet Application Guidelines, and Figure 3 -12, Ditch Bottom and Median Inlet Application Guidelines, of the Drainage Handbook: Storm Drains; and Design Standards for further information in selecting appropriate grates and inlet tops. See Chapter 2 of this volume for horizontal clearances for light poles. 8.6 Shared Use Paths Shared use paths are paved facilities physically separated from motorized vehicular traffic by an open space or barrier and either within the highway right of way or an independent right of way. Shared use paths are used by bicyclists, pedestrians, skaters, runners and others. The bicycle's operating characteristics will govern the design of shared use paths. The term path as used in this section refers to these paved shared use paths. An example typical design is provided for guidance in Volume 2, Exhibit TYP -15. Em Shared use paths adjacent to a roadway may be considered if the following conditions are met: 1. The path will be separated from the roadway. 2. There will be few access points or roadways crossing the path. 3. There will be adequate access to local streets and other facilities along the path. 4. There is a commitment to provide path continuity with other bikeways throughout the corridor. Shared use paths are not replacements for on- street bicycle lanes. Within a roadway right of way, bicycle lanes are the safest, most efficient bicycle facility. When paths are located immediately adjacent to roadways, some operational problems are likely to occur: 1. Paths require one direction of bicycle traffic to ride against motor vehicle traffic, which is contrary to the normal Rules of the Road. Motorists are not in the habit of scanning for traffic from that direction.

Administrator's Report Pathway Walk Notes & Statistics (Chandler) Page 4 of 4 Topic #625- 000 -007 January 1, 2009 Plans Preparation Manual, Volume 1 — English Revised — January 1, 2012 2. At path ends, bicyclists riding against traffic will tend to continue to travel on the wrong side of the street, as do bicyclists getting on to a path. Wrong -way travel by bicyclists is a major cause of bicycle /automobile crashes and should be discouraged. 3. Many bicyclists will use the roadway instead of the path because they have found the roadway to be safer, less congested, more convenient, or better maintained. 8.6.2 Widths The appropriate paved width for a shared use path is dependent upon context, volume and mix of users. Typically, widths range from 10 -14 feet, with the wider values applicable to areas with high use and /or a wider variety of users (bicyclists, pedestrians, joggers, and skaters). The need to provide for larger emergency or maintenance vehicles or manage steep grades can also affect appropriate width. The minimum width for a two- directional shared use path is 10 feet. FHWA's Shared Use Path Level of Service Calculator may be used as a guide in determining when a width greater than the minimum might be needed. At locations where the path narrows from the typical width warning signs or pavement markings in conformance with the MUTCD should be used. 8.6.3 Cross Slopes Since pedestrian use is expected on shared use paths, ADA requirements shall be met. Therefore, the maximum cross -slope shall be 2 %. 8.6.4 Grades To meet ADA the maximum grade is 5 %. Grades greater than 5% should be considered ramps and designed accordingly. Maximum ramp slopes are 8.33% and can have a maximum rise of 30 inches, with a level landing at least 60 inches in length. To accommodate bicycles exclusively, grades should not exceed 5 %, since steeper grades cause difficulties for many bicyclists. If the terrain makes it necessary to use steeper grades on short sections, the following restrictions are recommended: Pedestrian, Bicycle and Public Transit Facilities 8 -25 February 1, 2012 Pelican Bay Services Division Board Regular Session 5c. Pathways. J. Chandler's Pathway Walk Comments (by J. Chandler) and (by D. Trecker) Page 1 of 2 From: John Chandler [ mailto :johnchandler219 @gmail.com] Sent: Wednesday, January 25, 2012 11:42 AM To: ResnickLisa Subject: PBB Pathway Walk Notes Lisa, Please forward this email to all Board members as a one way communication. I think it would be useful if other Board members took the same walk, at a different time, and took similar notes. The more data that we have, the better decision that we will make. John Chandler Pelican Bay Boulevard Pathway Walk Notes • Walked from the Commons to the North Tram Station and back. Took paper and pen and stopped and made notes along the way. • Started my walk at 8:30 AM on Wednesday, January 25 and ended it at 9:21 AM • Counted the number of pedestrians that I encountered during this 2.6 mile walk. There were 16. This equals six per mile. • Counted the number of bikes that passed me on the pathway. There were three. This equals a little over one per mile. • Although I did not make an exact count of the number of bikes on Pelican Bay Blvd, I would estimate that about three dozen passed by on the west side of the boulevard. About eight of these were in a pack. • 1 encountered no baby strollers or rollerbladers • 1 encountered congestion just once. A walker and a jogger were headed toward me and I could see that all three of us were going to arrive at the same spot at the same time. I paused on the pathway for about five seconds. Problem solved. • Pavement quality is good, overall, although there is some root upheaval in those few areas where there are trees • Several cars went in or out of the driveways that I crossed during my walk. Only one car had to wait for me to cross in front of it. • Observed one traffic infraction. An SUV exited the main entrance of Montenero and did not obey the STOP sign. The driver looked only to the left as she approached and crossed the pathway. February 1, 2012 Pelican Bay Services Division Board Regular Session 5c. Pathways. J. Chandler's Pathway Walk Comments (by J. Chandler) and (by D. Trecker) Page 2 of 2 From: david trecker [mailto:djtrecker @yahoo.com] Sent: Saturday, January 28, 2012 4:52 PM To: ResnickLisa Subject: Sidewalks Lisa - Please distribute this to the other directors as a one -way communication. John Chandler suggested we walk the sidewalk on the west side of Pelican Bay Blvd. between the Commons and the North Tram Station so we have some feel for the sidewalk - widening issue. I did so -- up and back -- on Saturday, January 28 between 3:30 and 4:20 p.m. Here are my observations. There are cracks and upheavals along much of the sidewalk. I passed only 12 walkers -- no joggers, skaters or carriages. I passed 8 bikers (5 in one group) on the sidewalk -- tight quarters. During the walk, I counted 25 bikers on the street. No problems. Cars slowed and passed them. Car traffic was light, but steady. No problems with cars turning onto or off of PB Blvd. Good behavior all around. Maybe this is atypical. Anyway, that's what I saw. Dave L Pelican Bay Foundation, Inc. February 23, 2012 Mr. Keith Dallas Chair Pelican Bay Services Division Board Re: Pathway Widening Dear Chairman Dallas, The Pelican Bay Foundation (PBF) Board respectfully requests that the Pelican Bay Services Division (PBSD) Board reconsider its decision from its February 1, 2012 meeting to reduce the previously recommended widening of the pathway along the west side of Pelican Bay Blvd. from eight (8) feet to six (6) feet. An extensive process has been utilized to properly inform the decision to widen the pathway from five (5) feet to eight (8) feet (please see the included "Background Addendum" below). The PBSD Board directed its administrator, and its engineer to pursue the development of plans to effect the widening on the path to eight (8) feet, and the Chair stated in an article In the Pelican Bay Post that the PBSD Board would discuss this issue at both the February and March PBSD Board meetings. The purpose of the Strategic Master Plan and the CIP was to ensure that all projects in Pelican Bay fit into a long -term vision of keeping Pelican Bay competitive for the next 30 years and do not fall victim to the vagaries of individual personal preferences and shorter -term considerations. Unfortunately, by reversing its decision on this project prior to the previously reported timeframe, the PBSD Board has inadvertently disenfranchised those members who have a legitimate expectation of the pathway along the west side of Pelican Bay Blvd. from the Commons to the North Tram Station to be widened to eight (8) feet. At the February PBSD Board meeting, Mr. Geoff Gibson made a recommendation that the PBSD Board move ahead with the expansion of the pathway to 8 (eight) feet with three caveats: 1) that when necessary and appropriate, the pathway width be allowed to be modified down to a minimum of 6 (six) feet to save desirably kept trees; 2) that at the driveways, the pathway be positioned as close to Pelican Bay Blvd. as possible so as to improve lines of sight between vehicular, and pathway users; and 3) that the removal of any trees due to unavoidable pathway design or because of the health of the tree be compensated for by planting replacement native species trees at appropriate locations along Pelican Bay Blvd. as identified by the PBSD retained landscape architect. The PBF Board believes that Mr. Gibson's recommendation is a thoughtful and reasonable alternative and compromise. The PBF Board respectfully requests, and urges, the PBSD Board to please reconsider its action of February 1, 2012, and Instead to pursue either the previously disclosed, and fully vetted CIP widening of the pathway along the west side of Pelican Bay Blvd from the Commons to the North Tram Station to eight (8) feet, or Mr. Gibson's reasoned compromise proposal.

At one time, there was talk that the path would be 12 feet wide, which is the state guideline." The article also stated that Casalanguida said the state allows communities, in certain conditions, to construct paths that are 8 feet wide, instead of the 12 feet, which is what will be done along Vanderbilt Drive. Both Wood & Partners and WilsonMiller emphasized that an improved pathway system was a key component of any strategic or community improvement plan and an item that was not only prioritized by members, but also an area that was specifically identified as an "under met need." Attached is a recent Pelican Bay Pathway Report that reinforces the viewpoint that multi -use pathways were always considered an integral part of Pelican Bay's lifestyle allure, and in fact were marketed as "bicycle and jogging paths ". .lames F.

(Womble) Page 1 of 1 What is Riprap? Riprap lining a lake shore Riprap Concrete rubble used as riprap along the San Francisco Bay shoreline tkiprap Sufrsv.ly *ia 1 i Riprap Stairway Riprap also known as rip rap, rubble, shot rock or rock armour or Rip -rap — is rock or other material used to armor shorelines, streambeds, bridge abutments, pilings and other shoreline structures against scour, water or ice erosion. It is made from a variety of rock types, commonly rg_anite or limestone, and occasionally concrete rubble from building and paving demolition. It can be used on any waterways or water containment where there is potential for water erosion. Protection mechanism Riprap works by absorbing and deflecting the energy of waves before they reach the defended structure. The size and mass of the riprap material absorbs the impact energy of waves, while the gaps between the rocks trap and slow the flow of water, lessening its ability to erode soil or structures on the coast. The mass of riprap also provides protection against impact damage by ice or debris, which is particularly desirable for bridge supports and pilings. It is frequently used to protect the base of old Edwardian and Victorian sea walls, which being vertical are often undermined. The riprap absorbs the impact of the waves as they shoot up the wall and then fall back down.

In the absence of an agreement to the contrary, Collier County would be the owner of the improvements constructed within its drainage easement by the County with public funds for the Pelican Bay water management system maintained and operated by the Pelican Bay Services Division, a department of Collier County, as successor to the Pelican Bay Improvement District (PBID). The County will have the burden of proving that the improvements that were installed were in fact part of the Pelican Bay water management system. Please note that I have not reviewed the drainage easements conveyed to the PBID or to Collier County. If you would like me to review them, please let me know and have them sent to me. Please note also that I have no recollection of a conversation with Mr. Jim Carroll in 2003 and that I do not issue oral opinions, except during publicly noticed meetings.

Administrator's Report Ownership of Berm and Water Management Easement Improvements Page 3 of 6 PELICAN BAY FOUNDATION TO: Board of Directors FROM: Dave Trecker DATE: October 30, 2003 SUBJECT: Berm Ownership Jim Carroll, Chairman of the PBSD, called Heidi Ashton, the county attorney with whom Lisa Barnett has been working in an effort to resolve the berm ownership question. Jim reported that Heidi said unequivocally that the Foundation owns the berm. Jim queried Heidi about the argument put forth by Jim Ward that, because the dyke was built with public funds, the dyke/berm is owned by the county.: According to Jim, Heidi said that that had no bearing on berm ownership and that, as far as she was concerned, the Foundation owns the berm. Jim then reportedly contacted Jim Ward, told him of Heidi's position and urged Ward to accept that decision, which is in the best interests of the community. Ward apparently agreed. I feel it is unlikely that we will get any of this in writing. But with the position of a county attorney communicated to a community leader not affiliated with the Foundation, we probably have the next best thing. We owe Jim Carroll a debt of gratitude. I have prepared an article for the PB Post indicating that the Foundation, not the county, owns the berm. :f J.

CHEFFY BOARD CERnFIED REAL ESTATE ATTORNEY USA H. BARNETT BOARD CERTIFIED REAL ESTATE ATTORNEY ANDREW H. REISS WILLIAM J. DEMPSEY STANLEY A. GUNNER, JR. FRANK J. CAMPOAMOR OF COUNSEL_ R. SCOTT PRICE .; You have asked that we review the ownership of the Pelican Bay berm, Oakmont Park, Ridgewood Park and Hammock Oak Park, and determine what rights the Pelican Bay Services District has in said properties, if any. In reaching the following opinions, we relied on ownership and encumbrance searches performed by Attorneys Title Insurance Fund. The legal descriptions searched were provided to us by the Foundation and we did not independently verify the completeness of the legal descriptions. The documents disclosed by the searches were voluminous, and in an effort to provide you with a coherent opinion, the statements of law and fact contained in this memorandum are summary in nature. Upon request, we will gladly provide you with a more detailed analysis. Ownership. We reviewed title to the south berm, the north berm, the berm west of St. Lucia, Hamock Oak Park, Ridgewood Park, Oakmont Park (the "Properties ") and the portion of the berm owned by Gulf Bay Land Investments, Inc., and Parcel J -1 Development, Inc. (the "Gulf Bay Property "). Title to the Properties was conveyed by several quit claim deeds from WCI Communities (and its predecessors in interest) to the Pelican Bay Foundation, Inc., and title to the Properties appears to be vested in the Pelican Bay Foundation, Inc. The Properties are subject to various easements in favor of the Pelican Bay Services District (formerly the Pelican Bay Improvement District) (the "PBSD "). Although the easements are not all identical, all of the easements specifically provide that March 7, 2012 Pelican Bay Services Division Board Regular Session 5ci. Administrator's Report Ownership of Berm and Water Management Easement Improvements Page 5 of 6 the easements are for drainage purposes. This includes construction and maintenance of drainage facilities. Additionally, all of the easements provide that the Grantee (i.e., PBSD) is responsible for the maintenance of the easements and, in maintaining the easements, will not interfere with the Grantor's right of ingress and egress (or the rights of ingress and egress of its successors and assigns). The easements further provide that if the Grantees or their successors fail to use the easements for the purpose intended, then the Grantee, its successors or assigns, will vacate the easement or relevant portion thereof. Some of the easements specifically provide that they are private easements between Grantors and Grantee and specifically state "neither the general public nor any purchaser of property encumbered by this easement shall acquire any right, title or interest in or to the easement area." Finally, it is worth noting that some of the easements state that the Grantor (i.e., WCI Communities or their predecessors in interest) agrees for itself and its successors and assigns that it will be responsible for any and all repairs, replacements and maintenance or restoration of improvements and landscaping, including sodding over the easement area, except for repairs and replacements required by the grantees activities. As part of our review, we also reviewed the relevant plats. Again, although the dedications in each plat differ, none of the plats contain language which would have the effect of dedicating any of the PBSD drainage easements to the public. In fact, several of the plats specifically provide: "Easements to the Pelican Bay Improvement District shown in the plat are shown merely for informational purposes and are not dedicated hereby... Neither the public nor any purchaser shall acquire any right, title or interest in or to the PBID easement areas by virtue of this plat." Based on the above, it is our opinion that title to the Properties is vested in the Pelican Bay Foundation, Inc., subject to the drainage easements in favor of the PBSD, which are private easements and confer no rights on the public. H. Anal,. A general principle governing all easements is that the burden upon the servient estate must not be increased to any greater extent than reasonably necessary and contemplated at the time the easement was created. Walters v. McCall, 450 So.2d 1139 (Fla. l" DCA 1984). Where an easement specifically states the uses or purposes for which it was created, the use of the easement must be strictly confined those purposes and cannot be enlarged by any change in the use or character of the dominant estate. Id. Further, although the courts recognize that. easements carry with. them an implied right to do what is necessary for the full enjoyment of the easement, that ri ght is liited and must be exercised in a reasonable manner so as not to injuriously increase the burden on the servient estate. Id. Thus, where, as here, the easements specifically state that they are for drainage purposes and maintenance of drainage facilities, the PBSD does not have right to expand the scope of the easements. Another principle of law governing easements is that an easement is distinct from the right to occupy and enjoy the land itself. It gives no title to the land on which it is imposed and is not a possessory interest. Platt v. Pietras, 382 So.2d 414 (Fla. 5'b DCA 1980). Although the PBSD may 2 March 7, 2012 Pelican Bay Services Division Board Regular Session 5ci. Administrator's Report Ownership of Berm and Water Management Easement Improvements Page 6 of 6 own the actual utility facilities placed within the easement areas, the PBSD does not have any claim to ownership of the land and cannot claim a possessory interest in the land encumbered by the easements. Also, the easements specifically prohibit the PBSD from interfering with the rights of ingress or egress of Grantor and its successors and assigns. Finally, it is our understanding that the PBSD has taken the position that it is not required to comply with the Declaration and General Protective Covenants for Pelican Bay (the 'Declaration "). Somd of the easements in favor of the PBSD were recorded prior to the Declaration (copies of those easements are enclosed). The subsequent recording of the Declaration did not bind the PBSD since the PBSD does not appear to have joined in and consented to the Declaration. However, there are also easements in favor of the PBSD that were recorded subsequent to the Declaration. The Declaration contains covenants that run with the land. This means that any person or entity with any right, title or interest in the land, takes that interest subject to the Declaration once it is recorded. Although there is case law in Florida which provides that a governmental entity which takes title to real property by eminent domain is not subject to restrictive covenants, we were not able to locate case law which exempts a governmental entity with only easement rights from complying with use restrictions governing the use of real property. Based on the above, it is our opinion that the Declaration is binding on the PBSD only with regard to its rights to use the easements that were recorded subsequent to Declaration. However, regardless of whetherthe PBSD must comply with the Declaration, the PBSD does not have the right to expand the scope of the easements granted and any signage or improvements made by the PBSD that are not reasonably related to the use of the easements for drainage and maintenance purposes would be prohibited without the consent of the Foundation. , , F:\ wpdocslREXPe &anBayFoucdatiodSoard of Dascton-- benn&Oak=nt wpd 3 March 7, 2012 Pelican Bay Services Division Board Regular Session 5cii. Administrator's Report South Berm Restoration Engineering Plans to date (O'Brien) Page 1 of 7 WilSoo7MVIOr MEMORANDUM TO: Frank Laney, Pelican Bay Foundation, Inc, FROM: Dan Waters, PE DATE: November 24, 2010 SUBJECT: Pelican Bay South Berm Erosion Considerations / Side Slope Restoration Permitting_ History The 1,200 acre Pelican Bay subdivision was originally permitted by the SFWMD as Permit No. 04178 -C in August 1978 and by the US Army Corps of Engineers. The original permit approvals authorized the construction of a 50 foot wide berm and spreader swale from Seagate Drive along the western boundary of the developed areas of Pelican Bay northward to what is now the Montenero condominium. The berm was designed to serve both as a recreational facility and as part of the infrastructure of the Pelican Bay surface water management system. The berm was permitted to have a ten foot asphalt path on its top; the asphalt path remains in place and serves as a shared -use pedestrian trail as well as the travel way for trams conveying residents and visitors to the beaches, The berm also acts as the perimeter containment that allows for stormwater to be stored within the detention areas on the east side of the berm while stormwater control structures that are placed intermittently along the berm's length discharge the runoff from the developed areas west to the existing wetland areas adjacent to Clam Bay at a controlled rate. The permitted berm cross section consisted of a four foot high berm with four to one side slopes, a ten foot wide asphalt path on top of the berm, and an eight foot wide spreader Swale on the western side of the berm. A copy of the permitted berm section is shown in the center of sheet 41 of the Water Management Plan attached to this memorandum as Attachment A. The permitted section consists of a 50 foot wide envelope (a 42 foot wide berm and an eight foot spreader swale). Current Permitting Requirements / Design Standards The Collier County Land Development Code (LDC) contains standards for berm and embankment slopes and the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) Plans Preparation Manual provides standards for sideslopes for pedestrian facilities. LDC Section 4.06.05.J provides for the required treatment of slopes (a copy of the LDC Section has been included as Attachment B). For slopes of four to one (horizontal to vertical) or flatter, grass groundcover may be used as stabilization. Embankments with slopes no steeper than three to one (horizontal to vertical) may utilize trees, groundcover (pinestraw, mulch, etc.), ornamental grasses, and shrubs as stabilization. Embankment slopes that are not steeper than two to one (horizontal to vertical) may utilize rip -rap or other forms of scour protection. Section 8.6 of the FDOT Plans Preparation Manual provides the criteria for Shared Use Paths (a copy of Section 8.6 has been provided as Attachment C). Section 8.6.5 of the FDOT standards suggests that a two foot wide flat area be provided adjacent to paths that are typically 7/51:1Do7, 190613 Vac 011 UvATERS +.0 05335{ {M2 ECOA -;290% March 7, 2012 Pelican Bay Services Division Board Regular Session 5cii. Administrator's Report South Berm Restoration Engineering Plans to date (O'Brien) Page 2 of 7 Pelican Bay South Berm Page 2 of 4 Side Slope Erosion Evaluation utilized by pedestrians, joggers, in -line, skaters, and bicyclists. The intent of this two foot wide flat area is to provide an area of relief and recovery outside of the pathway for pedestrian users prior to the steeper side slope back to existing grade. This two foot flat area for recovery was not proposed as part of the original design of the berm / pathway system, however we recommend that it be added as a part of the improvements to bring the path to the current required standards. Problem Statement / Existino Condition Based on several site reviews and the compilation of survey information for the berm, the most significant maintenance problem on the south berm is the erosion of the sideslopes on the western side of the berm adjacent to the preserved wetland areas. As a part of this evaluation, WilsonMiller Stantec performed topographic survey cross sections of the berm at 200 foot intervals; the existing- condition survey information was then interpolated to create cross sections at 50 foot intervals for use in evaluating the current condition of the berm. The plan containing the existing condition survey information is included with this memorandum. A review of the existing- condition survey indicates that severe erosion of the side slopes has occurred along the western side of the berm. In contrast, the eastern side of the berm has not experienced significant erosion from the original design standard. It appears that the erosion has occurred from the toe of slope of the berm and proceeded up the slope toward the pathway. In this case, the erosion appears to have potentially been caused by either storm surge or grass die off / lack of slope stabilization instead of wash outs from stormwater runoff. Some of the concerns created by the eroded condition of the berm are as follows: • Drop Off Hazard: As stated above, the design plan and existing condition do not provide any flat area for relief from the side of the path to the bottom of the berm. This could potentially create an unsafe condition for tram operation, bikers, in -line skaters, or pedestrians. The lack of the flat area to provide relief for someone that inadvertently leaves the path is exacerbated by the fact that the eroded slopes are extremely steep in some areas and make recovery difficult. • Maintenance Difficulties: Generally, a four to one (horizontal to vertical) side slope or flatter is required to allow for the use of riding mowers for maintenance. Based on conversation with Pelican Bay Foundation staff and Pelican Bay Services Division staff, the deficient portions of the berm are currently too steep to be cut with a mower and t 113,7010 , 220471 - Vw: / • VWATEPS WMI -M.M ECOR A3313 March 7, 2012 Pelican Bay Services Division Board Regular Session 5cii. Administrator's Report South Berm Restoration Engineering Plans to date (O'Brien) Page 3 of 7 Pelican Bay South Berm Page 3 of 4 Side Slope Erosion Evaluation maintenance is currently performed with weed whackers. • Aesthetics: As stated above, the severe erosion makes maintenance of the grass difficult and therefore creates aesthetic issues. • Berm Stability: The continued erosion of the berm side slopes is likely to con inue and could eventually undermine the integrity of the berm and pathway. Proposed Remedies The correction of the erosion obviously requires that the berm sidesiopes be restored and that the appropriate slope coverage be provided to provide stabilization and prevent future erosion. Potential stabilization options that have been investigated include the following: Option 1 - Rip Rap at Toe -of- Slope: An on -site investigation indicated that the vast majority of the erosion occurred at the toe of slope of the berm along the western side. This erosion at the toe of slope may be caused either by the movement of the tidal waters within the wetland areas or could be a result of the die -off of grasses at the toe of slope that are not tolerant of water with high salinity. The placement of rip rap at the base of the restored slope would provide a maintenance free solution and provide the stability for the portions of the slope above the mean high water levels. Reference sheet two of the plans for two typical cross sections depicting the restored berm with rip rap protection at the toe of slope. The two sections evaluated for Option 1 are as follows: o Restoration of the berm to its original cross section with four feet of rip rap at the toe of slope on the western side and a sodded four to one slopes to the top of berm. This alternative would include placing additional along the west side of the berm to "reclaim" the original berm footprint and would include trimming of vegetation to allow for the construction to occur. a Restoration of the berm within its existing footprint with eight feet of rip -rap at a two to one slope from the existing toe of slope to the top of the berm. This alternative would either eliminate the need to trim the existing vegetation or require only minimal trimming. It would also preserve the low areas that currently hold water adjacent to the existing toe of slope at their existing elevation. Option 2 - Slope Stabilization Product at Toe -of- Slope; There are a wide variety of slope stabilization products available for use in this type of application. These systems are typically high strength cellular confinement systems that can be filled with soil material and planted with sod to provide stable slope protection from concentrated flows and long term erosion. If, as suspected, the high salinity levels in the brackish water within the preserved wetlands are responsible for the die -off of the grasses at the toe -of- slope, the grasses would continue to die -off if planted on the cellular confinement system and periodic replacement of the sod would be required. A picture of a typical cellular confinement system is provided below. 11127ROIO - 3804;1 - VW. 1 - CWATERS N010?066 =010 - ECOR .00?t5 March 7, 2012 Pelican Bay Services Division Board Regular Session 5cii. Administrator's Report South Berm Restoration Engineering Plans to date (O'Brien) Page 4 of 7 Pelican Bay South Berm Page 4 of 4 Side Slope Erosion Evaluation Option 3 - Different Sod Varieties: If neither of the above two methods are utilized for the slope restoration, it would be advisable to test and observe the performance of a variety of sod types in small areas prior to installing the best sold alternative along the entire length of the restored berm. Typically a berm of this type, where irrigation is not available, would have been planted with bahia sod. Bahia has poor tolerance to shade and saltwater, and in light of the fact that the erosion has generally occurred on the western side of the berm, the influence of the brackish water in Clam Bay and the lack of sunlight due to the shading provided by the encroachment of vegetation on the western side of the berm, have likely been detrimental to the bahia sod planted on the western side of the berm. The ideal sod to be planted along the western side of the berm should have a combination of good drought tolerance (because no irrigation its available), good shade tolerance (because the vegetation along the western side of the berm blocks sunlight), and a high tolerance to salinity. Due to the uncertainties associated with the survivability of grasses in options two and three, it is our suggestion that one of the alternatives shown on sheet two the plan for Option 1 be pursued. Construction Considerations As a part of this evaluation, we conducted a site visit to review the existing berm with an earthwork contractor to receive an evaluation of the existing conditions and considerations related to access and staging of materials. It is anticipated that two weeks will be required to complete the construction of the berm restoration. The two week timeframe assumes that the work could be completed in the end of the dry season (April or May) to avoid delays as a result of washouts caused by heavy rains during the construction. To ensure safety during construction, access to the berm by pedestrians and tram traffic would have to be eliminated or restricted to early morning and evening hours (periods during which work is not occurring). The construction work could be completed using small rubber -tired vehicles that would not damage the existing asphalt path and require repairs. An Opinion of Probable Cost has been prepared for the two alternative cross sections for Option 1 (shown on sheet two of the plans). The unit costs included in the attached Opinion of Probable Cost (Reference Attachment D) assume the following: • The parking lot at the Pelican Bay Foundation can be used for storage and staging of materials (rip -rap, filter fabric, fill material, vehicles, etc.); • The turnarounds on the berm, specifically adjacent to Heron Point, the Glenview, and the boardwalk, can be utilized for staging of materials; • Construction traffic traveling along the berm will be able to drop off material at locations along the berm and exit at the southern end of the berm through the county park (instead of having to turn around and travel back north to the Pelican Bay Foundation site); 11:23:2010.22047! .

However, our PBSD Board Chairman recently sent a letter to Commissioner Hiller, pointing out the deteriorated condition of PBB and our sidewalks and asking that she and the other commissioners work together to see that the County's road and sidewalk maintenance budget is significantly increased. Please advise other interested parties of our position. John Chandler On Thu, Mar 1, 2012 at 7:15 AM, ChesneyBarbara <BarbaraChesney(dcollier og v.net> wrote: Mr. Chandler: Good morning.

Hiller Commissioner, District 2 Collier County Board of County Commissioners 3299 Tamiami Trail East, Suite 303 Naples, FL 34112 -5746 Dear Commissioner Hiller, The Pelican Bay Services Division (PBSD) is studying ways to maintain the Pelican Bay community and keep it appealing to current and future residents. In this process, we have looked at the current condition of our roadways and pathways. As you are well aware, Collier County is responsible for maintaining both. In 2006, Pelican Bay Boulevard was unfortunately resurfaced using an experimental and low cost method called Micro - Surfacing, a mixture of slurry seal and emulsified aggregate of asphalt, water and mineral fillers or "gravel' applied overtop of the existing roadway surface and intended to preserve and extend the life of the pavement an additional 5 - 8 years. However this process was unsuccessful and within a year the new surface revealed significant wear. The attached photograph shows the current condition of a section of Pelican Bay Blvd, in front of the Philharmonic. We have been told that the County is scheduled to repave Pelican Bay Blvd. no sooner than 2016. Similarly, the County is deficient in maintaining Pelican Bay's pathways. The County uses the "patch" method to repair our pathways. However many of our pathways have been patched to the extent that they are now hazardous for walling, particularly by some of our older residents. The attached photos illustrate the problem. We have been told there is no money in the County budget to rebuild the pathways in the foreseeable future. Hence, the PBSD Board is faced with the dilemma of either waiting indeterminately for the County to make repairs or use our Municipal Service Taxing & Benefit Unit ( MSTBU) monies collected for other purposes. It is difficult to explain to residents the current conditions of the roadways and pathways, but it is even more challenging to rationalize using MSTBU monies for maintenance items that we have already paid through our County property taxes. Also, we understand that to the extent MSTBU monies are used for these items, we would have to defer other projects for which the monies were originally intended. Clearly, staff can only provide as much maintenance work as has been funded, and the County has experienced a significant decline in revenue. Nonetheless, the County should recognize its responsibility to maintain its essential infrastructure, On behalf of the PBSD Board, we implore you advocate strongly to provide adequate countywide funds to maintain roadways and pathways.
