NINTH ORDER OF BUSINESS Business Items
• Mr. Omland shared with all that the CDD has undertaken in these last months a study and
presentation by the financial markets on taking their three outstanding bonds,consolidating them
2
December 14,2020 Quarry CDD
and refinancing them and are in the final stages of a refinance of all our outstanding debt from
three different bonds to a single bond in the amount of $18 million +/- at 1.94% for 15 years
which will be co-terminus with the longest and largest outstanding bond. This will result in
annual savings to the homeowners, across the board, at an average of $303 per door, some
more some less.
A. Discussion of Refinancing of the CDD Bonds
• Mr. Haber introduced Resolution 2021-02, prepared by Bryant, Miller and Olive who is
serving as Bond Counsel and Resolution 2021-3 is an assessment resolution which
acknowledges the reduction in the assessments for each assessment securing each bond
issuance to reflect the savings that the District will realize as a result of this transaction.
• It was noted on the phone should be MBS Capital Markets — Brett Sealy and Sara Zare,
and Bryant, Miller and Olive—Misty Taylor.
i. Consideration of Resolution 2021-02, Delegated Award Resolution
• Ms. Taylor noted she is an attorney with Bryant, Miller and Olive and representing BBVA
USA in connection with the purchase of the 2020 Bond. She further outlined Resolution
2021-02 the Delegated Award Resolution noting because they are refunding all of the
outstanding debt,they have prepared a Master and Supplemental Trust Indenture,which
they are required to have with the Trustee pursuant to Chapter 190, and are attached to
the resolution, delegated to the Chair and others the authority to execute all the
documents that will be needed to fund or close the bond transaction which is scheduled
for December 21,2020 should they undertake the refinancing and approve this resolution.
Prior to this meeting the Board approved the term sheet and given notice of prepayment
to the other bonds and requested payoff letters from those banks, there is ratification
language in the resolution which approves those actions.
• Mr. Omland asked if there were any questions.
• Mr. Haber addressed the FEMA funds noting when first discussed the expectation and
idea was to maximize flexibility as it relates to the manner in which the FEMA funds would
be able to be spent;meaning if the Board wanted to they had the right,but not necessarily
the obligation, to use FEMA funds to redeem bonds and if they did not use the funds for
that purpose they would have the ability to use them for other purposes. As part of this
3
December 14,2020 Quarry CDD
transaction Bond Counsel, Bryant, Miller and Olive, has tax lawyers and they review the
codes and have concluded that the FEMA funds fall within a category called"Replacement
Proceeds". If the District had not issued bonds and only sought FEMA money to pay for
the project that money must be used for the lakes. Under the IRS regulations Bond
Counsel believes for that reason if FEMA money comes in that money will need to be used
to pay down the bonds. It is still a benefit—it will reduce the assessments for those bonds
but what it means is we will not be able to take that money put it in a separate account
and use it for operation purposes unrelated to the lake. An option, he believes, is the
District could use the FEMA money for another Capital Project. At this time, the District
does not have any Capital Projects identified. To the extent, if and when, FEMA money
came in if there was a Capital Project the Board wanted to look at they would need to run
the project by Bond Counsel to make sure they believe it met the qualifications and still
meet the tax exempt status for the bonds. The indenture document prepared by Bond
Counsel specifies if the FEMA money comes in it will be used for one of two purposes —
to redeem the outstanding bonds or to be used for a separate CDD Capital Project.
• Ms. Taylor noted for clarification as the Indenture exists today it does not contain the
project fund; she thought they were going to seek direction from the Board. The way it
is drafted now they would use it to pay down bonds; it is the cleanest thing to do from a
tax perspective. If they wanted to have a project account they can add it but they would
also need to add a provision that you would seek Bond Counsel opinion with respect to
the tax status of the bonds so they would have an opportunity to review the capital
project chosen and at that time they could advised them on how quickly they must spend
the money on that particular project with those FEMA reimbursements. As it stands now
it is drafted to pay down bonds.
• Mr.Omland asked can the resolution be modified to include that language,or will it delay
closing?
o Ms. Taylor responded part of the delegation in the resolution we are approving
these documents in substantial form; because these types of transactions can be
ever moving and complicated, we do delegate authority to the Chair to accept
changes, insertions and deletions from those documents. If they were to direct
them to add the funding account with those provisions, it would be subject to
4
December 14,2020 Quarry CDD
review by the Chair with District Counsel before signing as a final document.
Nothing in the resolution deals with FEMA.
o Mr. Omland noted this is disappointing, they really wanted the flexibility the
FEMA monies would provide them for purposes like maintenance they have
deferred, but we are only talking about capital improvements so they cannot use
any FEMA proceeds for the things they talked about at the workshop. It is
disappointing but the law is the law. He asked that the Board authorize Ms.Taylor
and Mr. Haber to draft the modifications to the resolution to give them the
flexibility should a capital project arise that would pass the muster of Bond
Counsel in a review.
o Mr. Cantwell noted he was going to make the motion to add that verbiage and
the Chair has the authorization to sign it in its substantial form.
o Mr. Haber noted the resolution does not address FEMA at all so what they will do
is have one motion directing staff to amend the documents to add the account
and then a separate motion approving the resolution which essentially authorizes
the transaction,gives Mr. Omland and others the authority to move forward with
the transaction with the expectation and goal that this will close on December
215t. There will be no further Board action after today as it relates to moving
forward with the refunding of the bonds.
On MOTION by Mr.Cantwell seconded by Mr.Schliep,to redraft the bond
documents to allow for the establishment of a project account utilizing
FEMA funds the motion was approved with votes as follows:
Mr. Flister-Aye
Mr. Schliep—Aye
Mr. Cantwell—Aye
Mr. Omland—Aye

December 14,2020 Quarry CDD
I On MOTION by Mr. Schliep seconded by Mr. Cantwell, Resolution 2021-
02, a resolution of the Board of Supervisors of Quarry Community
Development District(The"District")approving the sale and terms of sale
of the District's Special Assessment Refund Bond,Series 2020(The"2020
Bond"); establishing the interest rate, maturity date, and redemption
provisions thereof; approving a private placement for the 2020 Bond'
approving the form and authorizing the execution and delivery of a
Master Trust Indenture and a First Supplemental Trust Indenture;
authorizing the refunding of the District's outstanding Special
Assessment Refunding Bonds,Series 2015,Special Assessment Refunding
and Improvement Bonds, Series 2018 and Special Assessment Bonds,
Series 2019 (Shoreline Restoration Project) and notices of redemption
with respect thereto; authorizing and ratifying certain actions of the
officials and staff of the District, including the execution and delivery of
all documents, instruments, agreements and certificates necessary in
connection with the issuance,sale and delivery of the 2020 Bond and the
refunding of the refunded bonds; appointing a Trustee; specifying the
application of the proceeds of the 2020 Bond; providing certain other
details with respect to the 2020 Bond; and providing an effective date
was adopted with votes as follows:
Mr. Flister-Aye
Mr. Schliep—Aye
Mr. Cantwell—Aye
Mr. Omland—Aye
ii. Consideration of Resolution 2021-03,Supplemental Assessment
• Mr. Haber outlined Resolution 2021-03 noting it is a supplement to the assessment resolutions
that were adopted when the Board issued the 2015 Bonds, 2018 Bonds and 2019 Bonds. It calls
for a reduction in each of three assessment liens because of the result of the reduction with the
new interest rate on the bonds. In the whereas clauses it gives historically the various resolutions
that have been adopted in the past levying those assessments. It then makes certain findings as
it relates to the benefit of moving forward with this transaction to realize those savings, it
confirms the maximum assessment lien for the bond which is the maximum amount each
landowner would have to pay after the refunding of the bonds, the allocation of assessments, it
is worth noting that there are various exhibits to this resolution, the most meaningful is the
Assessment Methodology Report Supplemental which shows the impact of the refunded bonds
and shows that each bond is impacted differently. It is important because of the distinction that
some properties have certain of these bonds and not others; that the integrity of each individual
assessment lien remains so that the only change that folks will experience is the reduction they
6
December 14,2020 Quarry CDD
should be getting as a result of the reduction in interest rate on that particular bond. The
methodology provides that level of detail and is an exhibit to this resolution. There are tables
which show the interest rate and maturity, which is 1.94% maturing in 2036. It also shows the
debt service payments that are going to be required to be made on the bonds. He would note
that the effective date says the resolution shall become effective upon its adoption and he would
like to add this resolution shall become effective upon its adoption and upon the issuance of the
refunding bonds. If something comes up and the refunding bonds did not get issued this allows
then they need the prior assessment liens to remain in place and obviously they would not be
lowered as they need the higher amounts to continue to pay the bonds that are in place. For
Section 10 of the resolution he would ask when they make a motion on this resolution that it say
resolution shall become effective upon its adoption and upon the issuance of the refunding bonds.
• Mr.Omland noted page ten of the methodology shows every category of home in The Quarry and
the reduction impacts. This will not be on the tax bill until next November.
• Mr.Cantwell addressed collecting taxes in 2020 through Spring 2021 that are at a higher rate and
therefore will have a cash surplus because they have over collected taxes because they are kicking
this in in December. What is the differential? Are they under obligation to hold that cash and
reduce the tax liability to the taxpayers in 2036? Does it sit in escrow?
• Ms. Sara Zare, MBS Capital Markets, discussed the revenues collected in the 2021 assessment
year and indicated this is reflected in the par amount of the 2020 Bonds. The balance has to be
left in the revenue account so that they can actually afford to repay the debt obligation in the
2021 year. All of those revenues have been applied or are in effect reserved for debt service.
• A resident asked where he can find the exact amount due on his property.
o Mr.Cantwell responded you can go to the Collier County Tax Collectors website and enter
the parcel number or home address—it will pull up the tax liability and will break it down
by line item.

** Discussion Concerning an Agreement with the QCA and the Golf Course Concerning Certain
Maintenance Easements and Potential Land Swaps
• Cheryl 011ila thanked the Board for allowing this to be added and for accommodating her
schedule. She noted the QCA and Golf Club are working collaboratively on a cost neutral
agreement on some maintenance issues as well as conveyance of land parcels that the
QCA would need to move forward if they get a positive vote on the renewal project.
Specifically,they are talking about the land the Golf Club owns behind the tee box on the
#1 tee as well as behind the green on #1. She believes there are lake maintenance
easements that come into play on both parcels. They would like to understand what that
means and what they would need to do to be able to build additional parking, possibly a
storage building. Whatever they need to do they need to understand the process for
getting CDD approval for what those lake maintenance easements mean and what they
would need to do move forward with their plans.
• Mr. Omland noted as part of the QCA Master Plan there is a need to use some of the golf
course land in a land swap that implicates our storm water management function and
maintenance responsibilities within the LME. If the community votes to move with the
Master Plan; the CDD's concern is subject to whatever the permitting obligation would
be for that land improvement. He further addressed SFWMD permit noting there have
been 18 modifications. If the work is within the jurisdiction of SFWMD would need a new
ERP and a modification. If those approvals are obtained that would prove there would be
no detrimental effects to the lakes and stormwater management which is the CDD
principal purpose.
8
December 14,2020 Quarry CDD
• Mr. Cantwell noted another possibility depending on how the permit is setup and the
engineering is done it could change that to where the current LME is no longer accessible.
They always have the ability to grant us a new LME based on the new plat. It could
become a different LME being granted by the owner of the property.
• Mr. Omland addressed the LMEs noting they are not mentioned in the permits;the LMEs
followed the permits. He does not see a reason why the CDD would object realizing it is
the will of the community to proceed with the Master Plan should they do so.
• Mr. Haber noted the LMEs are there for the benefit of the CDD to undertake maintenance
on property it does not own. If the changes the QCA is making changes the access the
CDD needs they can work collaboratively so that the new areas that need new easements
and if they do, they can be granted, and the District can record what is called a partial
release of easement. In this way the QCA, Golf Course, or whoever needs it can have
clean title to the property because you may not want a lake maintenance easement
depending on how you are going to use it. The CDD will want to see that the water
management district agrees that whatever project you are undertaking is okay with them.
We would defer to our Engineer to say if we,the CDD, release this easement here but get
a new perpetual maintenance easement here, do we have all the rights we need to be
able to adequately maintain the system.
• Mr. Omland polled the Board on does the concept make sense and does there appear to
be any objection subject to new information being provided that changes the permits. He
asked the Board to raise their hand if the generally support proceeding subject to District
Counsel and Engineer review of permits and so forth. After which he stated it is nothing
more than an indication that we support it, go ahead and do your work and we will
participate and work with you to get a successful outcome.
• Mr. Schliep noted he thinks those on the Board are cognizant that there might be some
minor expenses with legal and engineering review.
SIXTH ORDER OF BUSINESS Engineer's Report

SEVENTH ORDER OF BUSINESS District Manager's Report(continued)
B. Acceptance of the Financial Report, and Approval of the Check Register and Invoices for
November 2020
• Mr. Koncar presented the financial report for November 2020.
• Mr.Omland noted he appreciated the report format,it makes it easy to review. He addressed
following:
o Overage on the Property Appraiser charge. Mr. Koncar noted he will have to check
because it is split between debt service and general fund.
o Insurance is at 91% of the budget and inquired if they are done paying insurance for the
year. Mr. Koncar noted they are.
o Page 31 — he noted the Board decided to go with a third cut of the weeds in the lake.
Discussion continued on the third cut and the funds coming from the surplus funds from
the Property Appraiser's office.
On MOTION by Mr. Schliep seconded by Mr. Cantwell, with all in favor,
to move the$25,000 surplus to lake maintenance was approved. 4-0

financial report for November 2020 was accepted and the check register
i and invoices for November were approved. 4-0
C. Update on Action Items from Meeting Notes
• Mr. Koncar reviewed the FY2021 Action Items list.
• Mr. Flister addressed Item 12 noting the netting was installed to maintain the integrity of the
pond banks and minor erosion is exposing it. It can be cut away but does not end the issues
causing the erosion. He spoke with the Environmental people from CPH and she does not feel
they are going to have any major issues with dredging in the ponds for 20 to 30 years. He further
addressed the erosion issues along the ponds in golf course noting it is an ongoing issue.
• It was noted the netting issue is not isolated to the golf course ponds.
• Mr.Cantwell noted he brought it up as he sees it as a threat to wildlife and saw an alligator under
a net this morning.
10
December 14,2020 Quarry CDD
• Mr.Omland asked if they can agree when the Engineer is doing the annual inspection in the Spring
will address the netting and give his opinion on removal or replacement. The consensus was yes.
• Mr. Schliep requested Mr. Koncar make a correction to Item 16 noting it was not a pond survey,
it was a lake and canal survey. Mr. Cantwell noted specifically for IPW.
• Mr.Omland requested Mr. Koncar date each assignment so they have some context of when they
were noting they should be oldest at the top and newest at the bottom or as long as it is
sequential.
• Mr. Koncar noted this is only November and the sequence is how they appeared in the meeting.
Mr. Omland noted it should say November at the top.
D. Status of Resident Complaints/Inquiry Report
• Mr. Koncar noted this report was updated through December 3rd and all have been completed.
• Mr. Omland noted he has been involved on some and appreciates Inframark's quick response on
some;they have received compliments from some on the timeliness of the response. Thank you
and keep up the good work.
E. Variance Easement Report Update
• Mr. Koncar noted this report was sent under separate cover. It is updated as the requests are
received.
F. Update on Board Seat Vacancy

anybody who is willing to give up their time, please let them know there is an opening. They will
be putting a communication on the success of the bond refinancing,the need for new members
on the Board,the lake quality meeting issues and any other information.
• Mr. Schliep noted in addition to being a property owner they do need to be a Florida resident.
• Mr. Haber noted they also need to be registered to vote in Collier County.
EIGHTH ORDER OF BUSINESS Attorney's Report
A. Attorney's Written Report
• Mr. Haber provided his written report to the Board.
• Mr. Cantwell noted the extension of the Disaster Law Consulting (DLC) contract is not on the
agenda.
11
December 14,2020 Quarry CDD
• Mr. Haber believes it was distributed at the beginning of the meeting noting he will defer to Mr.
Omland, but he thinks they are doing a great job and he would assume Mr. Omland would want
to continue his services.
• Mr. Omland noted Mr. Faircloth found in auditing paperwork that the agreement with DLC
terminated this summer and they continued their work, and they need to execute a continuation
of the contract.
On MOTION by Mr. Cantwell seconded by Mr. Schliep, with all in favor,
to extend the preserve maintenance agreement was approved. 4-0
• Mr. Haber noted he has a meeting in Cape Coral and needs to leave by 3:00 p.m.
• Mr. Omland addressed the QCA lawsuit and the subpoena of documents from the CDD that is
ongoing.
TENTH ORDER OF BUSINESS Old Business Items
A. Update of CD101 Book
• Mr. Omland reported he sent additional changes to Mr. Lopez which he has quickly responded to.
The work on CD101 is ongoing.
B. FEMA Update
• Mr. Omland reported he had a conversation with Tony Ettore (of DLC) today. Heritage Bay CDD
was denied years ago,filed an appeal and were denied again. They have no further redress with
FEMA, the only option is with a Federal court. If Heritage Bay CDD moves forward it could hurt
Quarry CDD who was successful in navigating the public purpose argument. If Heritage Bay CDD
appeals the Quarry CDD case could be revisited. He continued Ernst and Young, auditors for the
Florida Department of Environmental Management, has asked for more information. They
required a lot of documentation from the contractor in Phase I which was administered by a
different engineer,a different District Manager and a different Board so getting information is not
going to be easy. He addressed forgoing $20,000 when they are at $4.8 million and is the fine-
line they have to figure out.
C. Discussion of Weed Harvesting Information Memo for Residents Updates
• Mr. Cantwell noted he had brought forth the idea of putting forth a memo to clarify for the
residents what they can and cannot do, what the limitations are physically, budget-wise, and he
began to craft the memorandum he realized it is a labyrinth that is far to complex for him to do
12
December 14,2020 Quarry CDD
on his own. He thinks the memo needs to be back shelved as they need a plan first. With all of
the social media, direct communication, direct experience in their votes, and Mr. Schliep's direct
experience and report he is providing today. The subject of weed removal and in light of the 11-
page document from Heritage Bay that Mr. Faircloth shared with them this week. As discussed
at the last meeting, it is difficult to discuss what Heritage Bay is doing as they do not have a clear
picture of what they are doing and the 11-page memo made clear what they are doing, which is
very little with exception of addressing navigation. It is not under their purview or interest to
make their lakes totally free of IPW and they [Quarry CDD] need to take it on to their discussion
to look at that. He touched base with Laura Severance to solicit support from the Heritage Bay
umbrella association and she said absolutely. Quarry CDD needs to look at this as a separate
initiative that is distinct from other lake maintenance issues because it relates to safety of
boaters, jet skiers and kayakers and relates to the practical use of these lakes as recreational
lakes.
• Mr. Omland noted at this meeting in contrast to the Quarry's social media conclusions that they
are failing at their job of lake maintenance, they do take it seriously. They have reviewed
documents, undertaken studies, reviewed alternative solutions with our contractor (CES). He
thinks it is essential we treat our lake as a high-level priority. He feels a communication should
go out; it can be an evolution. He wants the community to know —here is what we are doing,
here is what we have assessed — it is a process and one thing they are doing is more cutting,
treating with herbicides and trying different things. He would like to revisit the memo and try to
move it along for Board approval as a policy and process.
• Mr. Cantwell addressed waiting month-to-month to get approvals noting he cannot put it out on
his own and suggested Mr. Koncar or Mr. Faircloth be the final authors of the communication as
they have the ability to send drafts out to the Board to look at, unless the can craft the first
communication in this meeting today, in at least a draft form that Mr. Koncar could finalize.
• Mr. Flister noted the main issue is do they want a pool, or do they want a lake. The CDDs
responsibility is water quality and lake management and there is a balance of how much weeds
you should have versus how much you get out. He further addressed lake maintenance and weed
cutting.
• Mr. Schliep addressed spending the day on the full perimeter of the lake,the canals, Boulder and
Heritage Lake. He noted the contractor has had two machine failures and spent the last weeks
broken down instead of cutting. This should not be an issue other than a few areas to clean up.
• Discussion ensued on the contractor.
13
December 14,2020 Quarry CDD
• A resident noted he looks at this as an environmental problem noting the bass are declining.
• Mr. Omland noted they need to address a plan and formulate a communication. He inquired if
the Board is interested in doing anything different than continuing on the current plan of three
cuttings instead of two and appropriate herbicide treatments. He thinks the plan is established
and they need to communicate that Boulder Lake is not their problem other than the portion
within their boundary. They need to hold Heritage Bay accountable to do the channel cutting that
they are committed to doing.
• Discussion ensued on a communication to the community and a sub-committee with the Lake
Committee of the QCA. Mr. Haber noted a committee appointed by the Board is subject to the
Sunshine Law. If a group of residents voluntarily forms their own group and makes a
recommendation to the Board,they are not subject to the Sunshine Law.
• Mr. Cantwell noted the QCA has a designated Lake Committee.
• Mr. Haber noted they need a Board member who is comfortable with having the final say, but if
the Board wants to appoint a Board member to work with that committee to come up with a
program.
• Mr. Flister addressed deciding what the role of the CDD is going to be in the lake maintenance.
• The Board will review the memo provided by Mr. Cantwell previously and provide input to Mr.
Koncar to summarize for the next meeting.
• A resident raised questions of what residents can do, are there chemicals they can use and how
the weeds are disposed of once moved to the shore.
ELEVENTH ORDER OF BUSINESS New Business Items
