Preparing this month, the Christmas decoration plans and GFI's for 2024 adding
to what was done this year. Once approved select a new vendor.
Adding lighted holiday decor between the banners instead of additional banners.
(Current banner count is 97.) You would get a visual during the day as well as at
night.
VIII. Community/Business Presentations
IX. Old Business:
a. 17 Acre Boardwalk Update — Tami Scott discussed timelines and updates.
Part 1: Site Development Plan (current phase; in third review)
Part 2: Procurement; then goes out to bid
Part 3: Select contractor
Part 4: Ribbon cutting/opening; expectation is December 2025
Stantec is on hold; one or two parking lots are not a requirement and are on hold.
The Sudgen Park Connection is a separate application to this project. The CRA is
paying for it and the MSTU will take it over once it is complete. Parks and Rec is
excited to be a part of this as well.
b. Priorities List — Tami Scott presented a priority list, life -safety issues first; in
particular the electrical panel on Bayview Dr the attached list highlights items for
life -safety or aesthetics. The life cycle of pavers, sidewalks, painting, trees, etc.
needs to be addressed. It may be beneficial if we had a neighborhood meeting so
you could see the condition and specifically where all these things come together
— the canopy trees, the pavers, the two -foot median strip of land and determine
where the property lines are for each parcel of land. Irrigation pumps and
controllers need replaced. New higher light poles with LED.
c. The Real Macaw — Maurice Gutierrez noted that Jeanne Harvey who was a
pioneer on Bayshore whose daughter wants to commemorate her mother by
installing the Macaw public art dedicated to Ms. Harvey. What do we need to do
to get that gifted to us and the MSTU will pay for the installation and
maintenance? This would be something that will shine on Bayshore and is art and
reflects a bit of history of those that took a chance back when we had county
roads.
Dan Rodriguez — Deputy County Manager noted he would speak with
Commissioner Kowal to see if he will champion this for us; also he will speak
with our county manager to see if she is ready to move this along. The sculpture is
made of stainless steel and maintenance is minimal it would be like waxing a car.
