VII. New Business:
A. Pineland Grant Funding: Community and Human Services (CHS) notified CRA staff in late
June that the project had to be constructed and completed by August 31, 2015 in order to utilize
the DRI funds. Based on the project status and timeline, it was determined that staff would not
be able to meet the CHS deadline. Staff worked with CHS staff to move funding sources from
Disaster Recovery Initiative funding to Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds.
However, based on limited CDBG funds, CHS was only able to partially fund Pineland Avenue
for $98,050. Karen Drive will not be funded. There is a $3,560 anticipated shortfall for Pineland
Avenue improvements that will need to be absorbed by the CRA.
Motion to fund the $3,560 shortfall to complete the stormwater project made by: Steve Main. 2nd
by: Karen Beatty. Approved: 6-0.
VIII. Advisory Board General Communications: More information on the roundabouts will be
discussed in tomorrow's MSTU meeting.
Karen Beatty requested we trim down the shrubs in front on the Real Macaw as they are blocking the
sign.
Karen Beatty requested staff contact Naples Bay Resort to advise them that RaceTrac is moving
forward with the project.
Larry Ingram requested staff find out if the land owner of the proposed RaceTrac location is aware of
the project moving forward.
