AUDIENCE COMMENTS
Ms. Diane Lustig and Mr. Robert Naegele supported the Waldorf-Astoria and the
proposed Clam Pass Park improvements.
Mr. Dick Fite,President, San Marino,presented a petition to request flashing lights and
additional warning signs be placed at the pedestrian crosswalk at San Marino and Pelican Bay
Blvd. The Board agreed that the Safety Committee would address this matter.
Mr. Ken Dawson,Mr. Gary Ventress, President of HOA, and Mr. Dennis Coyle, (Oak
Lake Sanctuary)requested help from the Services Division to repair the erosion in the lake with
rip-rap and a broken pipe.
Mr. Dorrill explained that the Services Division does have a lake bank restoration
program that uses geo-textile tubing to repair erosion;however,he did not believe geo-textile
tubing would work in this extreme case. As this is part of the Services Division's lake
maintenance easement, Mr. Dorrill would engage the services of the civil engineer to look into
whether it is possible to repair the erosion using rip-rap and the pipe by installing a mitered edge
that matches the current side slope; however the determination will be made by other regulatory
agencies as to the method used. Because Oak Lake Sanctuary owns the pipe which is on a private
drainage easement, Oak Lake Sanctuary should bear those costs.

Mr. Dickson motioned,Mr. Iaizzo seconded, to authorize the administrator, to the
extent practicable, work with the civil engineer and incur some minor costs to explore
the possibilities for repairing erosion along the lake bank of Oak Lake Sanctuary.
This lake bank is within the Services Division's easement. [Oak Lake Sanctuary
would bear any additional costs to pursue riprap and explore a mitered edge to repair
the broken pipe]and to work with the Pelican Bay Foundation to resolve this
problem. The motion carried unanimously.
Mr. Henry Bachman asked for the status of installing speed monitoring signs; however,
the Board agreed that due to aesthetic reasons,these were no longer being considered.
Mr. Gerald Moffat asked for the status of the bromeliad removal.
Mr. Dorrill explained the landscape architect and Mr. Lukasz would meet Monday to
determine removal locations and replacement plantings.
Mr. Fred Luconi (Pinecrest)requested the fountain in the lake be repaired
Mr. Dorrill explained the Services Division has been maintaining two fountains and this
is one of them. The architectural fountain work will cost about$3,700 and there will be
additional costs for electrical work. The Board does not have a policy for these fountains because
aside from aesthetic value,they do not enhance water quality, and asked the Board to authorize
the expenditure.
Original Motion: Mr. Hanson motioned Mr. Dickson seconded to recommend
spending$5,000 to repair the fountain[between Pinecrest and Georgetown].
First amendment:Mr. Streckenbein amended the original motion, Vice Chairman
Trecker seconded the amendment that this is the last time the Services Division
repairs/replaces both fountains that are not in the Services Division's jurisdiction.
The motion to amend the original motion carried 7-3. (In favor:Levy, Chicurel,
Iaizzo, Cravens, Trecker, O'Brien, Streckenbein. Opposed:Domenie,Hanson,
Dickson).

Chairman Trecker seconded the amendment not to exceed$5,000 to repair/replace
the inherited fountain between Pinecrest and Georgetown. The motion carried 9-1.
(In favor:Streckenbein,Dickson,Hansen, Cravens, Trecker,Domenie,Iaizzo,Levy.

PELICAN BAY BEACH RENOURISHMENT UPDATE
Mr. Cravens motioned, Chairman Trecker seconded to authorize the$8,400
expenditure. The motion carried 9-1. Vice Chairman O'Brien opposed.
DISCUSSION ON OPERATION'S MANAGER'S SUCCESSOR
Mr. Dorrill reported the County audited the Operations Manager's position description
and pay range and the job is expected to be posted no later than Friday. The final decision for
who is hired into this position rests with the Administrator in accordance with the County
Manager's Ordinance and Human Resources Department.
NORTH BERM RESTORATION PERMITTING UPDATE
Mr. Dorrill reported that one of two permits was received. The work would have to be
coordinated with the Foundation and their north beach facility construction.
L'AMBIANCE LAKE BANK UPDATE
Mr. Dorrill reported the Services Division has a substantial lake bank easement at the
L'Ambiance lake and the Services Division would pay L'Ambiance for the fill within this lake
bank easement.
MONTHLY FINANCIAL REPORT
Mr. Cravens motioned,Mr. Levy seconded to accept the monthly financial report. The
motion carried unanimously.
UPDATE ON WATER MANAGEMENT RESPONSIBILITIES
Mr. Dorrill explained there are two issues:
In the first issue,the civil engineer is evaluating the proposed Commons plans to
determine 1)whether this is a substantial change to the existing Commons site development plan
or SDP, and 2)whether the proposed plans exceed the impervious area basin allocation that is
part of the Services Division's South Florida Water Management permit.
The second issue pertains to the Foundation's deed restrictions. There is no process for
this currently, but there is no question that this would require the Services Division's written
approval if it affects a platted or recorded property interest. The platting or subdivision process is
involved and ultimately requires the Board of County Commissioners approval to accept and
8683

sign off on the plat. However, condominiums do not have to go through this platting process—
condominiums are recorded,but are not platted—and there are condominiums adjacent to the
Commons site. Thus, in this case,the civil engineer is performing a title search to find out
whether there are any platted designations or reservations that are in favor of the Services
Division or the Board of County Commissioners adjacent to the current sites and parcels.
The civil engineer would present his findings at the May meeting.
