Another resident was concerned about the cost of Pelican Bay Foundation projects. ADMINISTRATOR'S REPORT OAKMONT LAKE PATH AND LAKE BANK UPDATE Mr. Dorrill reported that the Oakmont lake bank restoration work done by PBSD was completed. The Oakmont lake pathway asphalt overlay is the Foundation's responsibility and this work was completed; however, there are areas of steep drops-offs that need to be addressed. UPDATE ON WATERPARK PLACE/GULF BAY DEVELOPER PLANS Mr. Dorrill reported that PBSD was not given an opportunity to address concerns about median landscaping before the right-of-way (ROW) permit was approved. The County's Growth Management Division had indicated the PBSD would be informed of all proposed projects in Pelican Bay. Dr. Chicurel suggested that a process be instituted whereby the PBSD Board and the residents are approached before these types of projects are approved. GLENVIEW "TURNAROUND/CIRCLE" ISSUE Mr. David Pettler was concerned about cars parking around the cul-de-sac area of the Glenview and requested that the PBSD install "no parking" signs there. 2 Landscape & Safety Committee of the Pelican Bay Services Division August 27, 2015 Meeting Minutes Mr. Cravens motioned, Mr. Dawson seconded to recommend to the full PBSD Board to request a right-of-way permit from the County to install two "no parking" signs in the Glenview cul-de-sac. After discussion, the motion was withdrawn. Mr. Cravens motioned, Mr. Dawson seconded to recommend to the full PBSD Board that PBSD install two "no parking" in the Glenview cul-de-sac in compliance with the Pelican Bay Foundation's covenants. The motion carried unanimously. PHASE III CIP RELANDSCAPING DISCUSSION Phase III re-landscaping goals were proposed and discussed. CHAIRMAN'S REPORT Dr. Chicurel reported the cul-de-sacs are overgrown and tall plants are blocking the line of sight creating safety issues. The sharrow markings have faded and need repainting with longer-lasting paint. The needs for Green Tree Drive pathway resurfacing were discussed, and Dr. Chicurel will work with Mr. Bolick on this issue. COMMITTEE MEMBERS COMMENTS/NEW ISSUES Mr. Cravens motioned to recommend to the full PBSD Board to recommend to the County that the north and southbound lanes at the intersection of Hammock Oak Dr and Vanderbilt Beach Rd be re-striped allowing cars to make left turns or go straight, and the right hand lane be designated as right turn only. After discussion, the motion was withdrawn. Mr. Dorrill recommended that an evaluation be done with the County engineer to determine what the PBSD is eligible to do, and if staggered left turns were possible there. A problem with access into Pelican Bay at the tennis courts parking lot at Naples Grande was noted, and the concrete car stops need to be replaced to prevent this from occurring. Mr. Dorrill will determine ownership of the parking lot after the meeting. ADJOURNMENT Mr. Cravens motioned, Mr. Dawson seconded to adjourn at 3:02 p.m. The motion carried unanimously.
