17.B.2
• Total Budget, Line 39, lists FY-23 M.S.T.U. budgeted funds at $1,984,856.25; with
tabulated Commitments of $77,250.39, Expenditures of $81,819.44, and a Budget

does not change during the fiscal year.
Mr. Schumacher has noted:
FY-23 millage rate of 4.0 is necessary to accumulate funds to fund maintenance of
community assets, such as roadway paving and drainage projects, as identified in the
Capital Asset Plan updated annually.
A budget amendment to finance long-term projects, consistent with the M.S.T.U.
ordinance, may be requested upon recommendation by the Advisory Committee and
approval by the Board of County Commissioners (BCC).
Fund 159 is exclusive to the Forest Lakes M.S.T.U. and cannot be utilized by outside
entities.
The Committee noted:
• The Ad Valorem tax dollar increase for FY-23 over FY-22 of 13.22% translates into tax
revenue.
• For 2022, the maximum increase on the assessed value of a Homestead property in Florida
has been capped at 3% by the Florida Department of Revenue (FDOR).
Mr. Schumacher will.
• Verify the number of taxable units in Forest Lakes, based on data provided by the County
property appraiser, and present his findings at the March meeting.
• Present an updated Asset Management Plan report to identify life expectancies of community
assets and corresponding expenditure projections to fund these maintenance needs at the Marc]
or April 2023 meeting.
B. Lakes Maintenance — Mettauer Environmental
Issuance of a Purchase Order in the amount of $3,000.00 in October 2022 has enabled Mettauer
Environmental to perform routine maintenance.
Mr. Schumacher will issue a bid solicitation for Lakes Maintenance, including both aquatic weed
control and fountain/aerator maintenance, for a quick quote. The Request for Quote (RFQ)
requires bids from three (3) qualified contractors. A Purchase order for one (1) or more years
should be issued by the end of February.
Lakes 15 & 16 Vegetation.
• Hydrilla, an invasive aquatic plant species, will be chemically treated in lakes 15 and 16
by Mettauer during the January maintenance cycle.
• Mettauer anticipates two (2) or three (3) treatments will be required to eradicate the
growth.
2. Alternative Control Method.
Mr. Schumacher reported:

eating carp" into the lakes.
January 10, 2023 Forest Lakes MSTU

MINUTES
17.B.2
• A supplier was contacted to gather information on pricing, transportation, etc.
• The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) requires installation of
"fish gates" at the entrances and exits in the lakes.
• Inquiries were sent to the Road Maintenance Division to determine if the County has
experience with the use of carp fish for weed control.
• The proposal will be researched and evaluated further.
A committee member noted the chemical application appears to have deterred growth of the Hydrilla
in some locations.
VIL ONGOING BUSINESS,
A. Woodshire Fence Damage (Trees)
Mr. Schumacher reported:
• Carter Fence Company, Inc. and Century Fence Co., Inc., both County contractors,
submitted cost proposals to repair three (3) sections of the Woodshire Lane fence, damaged

Sidewalk Repairs
Mr. Fogg reported a sidewalk slab on Woodshire Lane posed a trip hazard. A "trip hazard" is defined
as a variance of three quarter (3�4) inches or more between two slabs.

mark qualifying variances with paint and notify the Road Maintenance Division to schedule grinding
down of slabs.

January 10, 2023 Forest Lakes MSTU
Packet Pg. 295
MINUTES
17.B.2
Drivers violating the "no left turn" sign on Woodshire Lane at the entrance/exit from the Pine Ridge
Crossings shopping center are creating a Safety Hazard.
Mr. Schumacher will consult with Traffic Operations to solicit an opinion on effective enforcement of
the "no left turn" policy on Woodshire Lane.
Woodshire Lane Street Light Outage
Multiple streetlamp outages were reported on Woodshire Lane.
Mr. Schumacher will investigate and take action to remedy the outage.
Roadway Paving
A report highlighting roadway paving conditions in the community was submitted to Mr. Schumacher
based on observations by Mr. Bernal. Mr. Pollock also commented on his findings of roadway sections
in need of repair.
Mr. Schumacher met with Mr. Molloy, Preferred Materials to evaluate the condition of community
paved roads.
• Generally, overall roadways have two (2) to three (3) years useful life.
• The valley gutter/roadway on Woodshire Lane sank because of a large tree route growing
under the pavement.
• Mr. Molloy recommended consulting an agronomist to determine if the above referenced tree
root can be severed without damaging the tree.
• On removal of the tree root, the area would be excavated and repaved.
• Preferred Materials will submit a cost quote to excavate and repave a section of the road
including the area with the tree root.
• The cost of the repairs to the concrete gutters abutting the roadway will be determined and
the work performed by a specialty contractor.
• The Asset Management Plan's original date for selecting segments for roadway paving was
2023.
• A cost proposal prepared by Preferred Materials for roadway repaving will be submitted at
the February 2023 meeting.
IX. PUBLIC COMMENTS
Traffic Calming
A resident expressed concern regarding speed rates of vehicles turning left along Woodshire Lane to
Pine Ridge Road. Calming solutions suggested included:
• Speed bumps

Mr. Schumacher noted calming devices such as Traffic Logix Radar Signs, have not been an effective
solution to speed reduction.
