As anticipated the quantity of plants did not quite finish all of the gaps. I recommend an additional 1,000 plants to complete the west ROW and fill in the few gaps on the south /east ROW behind the shopping center and at Santa Barbara. • CLM is to continue to monitor irrigation coverage and report programming needs or malfunctions to Roger, Harry and WSI. The temporary Hunter irrigation controllers are functioning well and have performed without incident. • Though irrigation has remained uninterrupted, the main water supply valve failed and CLM ordered the new valve and installed a temporary valve while waiting for the part to ship from California. Additionally, CLM and Harry investigated a communication problem with the Scorpio controller to the main water supply valve and determined the controller has an error in communicating to the valve to open it. As a temporary fix, CLM is manually turning on the solenoid valve to supply Devonshire on the watering days. Additionally, Harry ordered a power outlet to be installed at the pump station to supply a new, temporary controller to operate the main water supply valve so CLM won't have to do it manually. This will be a temporary solution until the new operating system is installed in the future following committee review and selection. Windham Studio,Inc.,Landscape Architecture,LC 26000365 P.O. Box 1239,Bonita Springs,Florida 34133 Phone: (239) 390-1936 Fax: (239) 390-1937 Email: scott @windhamstudio.com www.windhamstudio.corn 1 • At the committee's request, Harry and I are continuing discussions with various irrigation manufacturers to evaluate alternative MSTU independent controllers for Devonshire. As discussed in the last meeting, the manufacturers will present their systems to the committee in two meetings over a two month period. • The dead Lantana have been removed and the remaining ones that were cut back have begun to flush back out and flower. • The remaining Lantana that were to be replaced have been removed and the 318 replacement Gold Mound Duranta have been planted. • All ROW Asian Jasmine needs to be top trimmed. • Dollar weed in Asian Jasmine on outside of sidewalk by service pad and utility boxes. • Median 1 —Trim woody twigs out of Lantana • North ROW east of Belville to Santa Barbara —Asian Jasmine needs weeding, heavy infestation of nut sedge. Also, Belville south to service vehicle pad. • Median 6 — Remove one dead Lantana at south side of west tip. • GENERAL— Remove Montgomery Palm seed pods RADIO ROAD: In general the medians look healthy and well maintained with the following action items: • GENERAL: Dianella are in general thin, and inconsistent from plant-to-plant with some dead, some with fungus and generally unhealthy appearance. Most plant groupings need to be filled in with new plants on an ongoing basis. (Medians 5, 6, 19, 18, 29 for example) • GENERAL: Remove Montgomery palm seed pods. • Median 1 — Replace +1- 20 dead Little Red Euphorbia; Remove one random Silhouette still needs to be replaced with Ms. Alice at west tip. • Median 3 —Trim brown foliage out of Juniper (north side) • Median 10 — Remove one dead Silhouette • Median 13—Two Foxtails are still yellow with stunted buds (2nd from the west and 2nd from the east). • Median 23 —Trim dead wood out of Lantana (east tip) and reduce overall height to allow to flush back lower • Median 25, 26, 27 — Helen Johnson Bougs are defoliated. • Median 23 — New replacement Royal is stressed and browned out foliage. It will likely need to be replaced. The following replacements were noted and should be put in the rotation if and when directed and authorized by Pam Lulich: • In general, keep working towards replacement of all Dinnis with Dianella moving forward as they decline Windham Studio,Inc.,Landscape Architecture,LC 26000365 P.O.
