The work will be in accordance with County standards for size of plant and spacing. If the MSTU determines the plantings are not sufficient,the project may be upgraded at MSTU expense. —Staff to determine the County policy for the installations, the proposed palette, any upgrades that may be made and the timeline for the work and report back to the Committee. The Committee noted they would consider assisting in upgrading the plantings in the County medians if necessary. VII. Landscape Maintenance Report—Robert Kindelan, Commercial Land Maintenance Mr. Gordon reported: 1 • A traffic accident damaged the Gold Mound in median#1 on Devonshire and they should be replaced. • Turf areas are receiving pre and post emergent herbicides treatment and any compromised areas will be re-sodded as needed. • Palm frond seed pods being removed weekly. Chairman Lewis moved for Commercial Landscape Maintenance to undertake the necessary measures as directed by Staff to replace the damaged Gold Mounds in the median as identified by Mr. Gordon. Second by Ms. Schoenfelder. Carried unanimously 3—0. Median#3 • Juniper and Gold Mound was damaged as the result of a traffic accident and he recommends re-planting the area with Ixora. • Approximately 35 plants would be required and he can provide a proposal for the work to Staff —35 plants. Ms. Schoenfelder moved to approve an expenditure of$1,500 and allow for 10 percent overrun if necessary to replace the Juniper and Gold Mound with Ixora's as directed by Staff. Commercial Land Care to provide quote to Staff's approval before undertaking the work. Second by Ms. Carella. Carried unanimously 3—0. Flag Pole Mr. Sells noted: • He located the electrical drawings for the area at the intersection of Devonshire Blvd. and Santa Barbra Blvd. and will forward them to the Committee. • The flag pole is the property of Berkshire Lakes HOA and will need to be removed or relocated during the County's reconstruction of the intersection. • The cost to relocate it should be in the range of$1,500. VIII. Project Manager Report a. Budget Report Mr. Sells provided the "Radio Road MSTU Fund 158—3-13-17"budget document for information purposes. He noted: • There is currently$47,000 of funds which are uncommitted/unspent. • With the proposed$24,000 of expenditures anticipated for sod replacement, approximately $23,000 will remain available for use for the remainder of the year which should be adequate given current projections. • Staff will begin developing the Fiscal Year 2018 budget in the near future. b. Status of Irrigation System Mr. Sells reported the irrigation system has been functioning as intended however Berkshire Lakes maintenance staff contacted him on the lack of water pressure for the line serving the roadway area into the community center. Investigation indicates there are potentially too many irrigation heads on the line to achieve adequate pressure for the zone. IX. Old Business 2 Extension of Greenway from Radio Road to Golden Gate Parkway Mr. Sells noted: • The lands required to be improved for the extension of the greenway north from Radio Road to Golden Gate Parkway is privately owned with and partially subject to an FPL easement. • Any improvements would require approval by these parties. • He located the plans for the previously proposed improvements to the area south of Radio Road at the terminus of the existing greenway and will forward them to the Committee -The Committee noted consideration should be given to landscaping the area as there was a design proposed and the MSTU previously determined the project should not be undertaken. Staff reported they would investigate the concept including obtaining price estimates and report back to the Committee. a. Marlene Sherman Request for Turn Control Radio Road and Devonshire Ms. Sherman addressed the Committee on vehicles turning movements onto Devonshire Blvd. and into Countryside at the intersection of Radio Road noting it is a safety concern given the existing sight lines. She contacted representatives of the County Transportation Division and was informed the existing signal is scheduled for replacement in May and the turning will be regulated by a flashing yellow arrow. She expressed concern the flashing yellow arrow will not address the issue and the representatives noted another option is constructing offset turn lanes. They recommended she contact the MSTU to determine if they would fund the project. During Committee discussions, the following was noted: • The MSTU would not be in favor of funding construction of the turning lanes as traffic operations are not in their purview and there would be a concern on setting a precedent by funding County traffic improvements. • They suggested a safer and much less expensive measure would be to "wire"the signal to a green light for turns and when the cycle ends, the light signal red prohibiting turning across traffic. • This would be at the expense of the County and they would support contacting Commissioner Taylor on the concept if they had a viable proposal in hand. They requested Ms. Sherman to gather price estimates for "wiring"the signal for a green turn arrow and a red light after the cycle to prohibit left turns onto the two streets in question and return to the Committee with the information. X. New Business • None XI. Public Comment/Committee Member Comment None There being no further business to come before the Committee, the meeting was adjourned by the Chair at 4:20P.M. 3 NEXT MEETING: APRIL 10,2017 Berkshire Lakes Master Association Clubhouse 495 Belville Boulevard,Naples,FL 34105 RADIO ROAD MSTU ADVISORY COMMITTEE Dale Lewis, Chairman The Minutes were approved by the Committee on , 2017 as presented , or as amended 4 MAINTENANCE REPORT To: Radio Road MSTU Advisory Committee CC Harry Sells, Dave Morgan, Collier County Road Maintenance Robert Kindelan, Commercial Land Maintenance From: Scott Windham Date: April 4, 2017 RE: Radio Road and Devonshire Monthly Maintenance Report MSTU Committee and Staff: The following is a report of the general conditions and recommendations for the maintenance of the Radio Road MSTU areas on Radio Road and Devonshire Blvd. DEVONSHIRE: In general the medians and ROW areas look healthy and well maintained with the following observations, action items: • GENERAL— Remove a few seed pods from Montgomery Palms. • Median 3 (East side towards west end)— Replace 10 ft section of dead Asian Jasmine. • WEST ROW—Remove weeds from Asian Jasmine at solar panel. • Median 6— FUTURE Recommendation — Remove Juniper and replace with Ilex Shillings.
