OLD BUSINESS:
1. Committee approved the minutes for the 3-3-08 Regular Meeting,recognizing the need to
remove Duke Vasey from the"Absent"list and add him to the"Meeting Attendance"list.
2. Develop an Educational Video for the County TV channel -The Committee agrees that"This
Old Pond"video should be Collierized. The video should focus on the Golden Gate Estates
area,include local people discussing flooding issues so new residents can be fully educated.
Once complete this video should be presented on the Government Channel,have a link on
the County's web-page and can be seen on a mobile system(Blackberry) during the entire
rainy season. It was suggested that instead of starting new, start with the existing video on
maintaining a storm water system(designed for home owners)and building on it.
Travis also noted that the telephone number that should be called if there is a flooding or
drainage complaint is 252-8924.
The Committee agreed that there was not much time left to develop this video and to post the
listed telephone number. This should be considered as a priority.
3. Action Items Update(see attached spreadsheet)

sub-committees will e-mail Robert Wiley the status of their Action Item including any Due Date
changes. These e-mail responses should be compiled for the next FPMC Meeting. Committee
members also recommended that as this list is worked on,three lists should develop;
