NEW COMMITTEE MEMBER INTRODUCTION Dr. Chicurel welcomed new committee members Mr. Brad Hildebrandt and Mr. Greg Stone, Ms. Hamilton motioned, Mr. Griffith seconded to approve the agenda as presented. The motion carried unanimously. Ms. Hamilton motioned, Mr. Griffith seconded to approve the 3/25/24 meeting minutes as Dresented. The motion carried unanimouslv. AUDIENCE COMMENTS None ADMINISTRATOR'S REPORT SIDEWALK PROJECT AND RESTORATION UPDATE Mr. Dorrill reported that our sidewalk project is at 99.55% completion. The contractor is currently working on the last 200 linear feet of sidewalk, and reworking a curb area adjacent to the Crescent Association. He commented that we have partially processed the most recent pay request, which is in dispute with the contractor. We are disputing Quality Enterprise's request for overtime pay reimbursement for contracted irrigation and restoration work. Mr. Dorrill noted that all other pay application requests have been paid and that 145 days remain on the contract. He commented that County final inspections have not yet been completed. Mr. Coleman commented that QE is currently redoing several sidewalk areas for aesthetic reasons and slope issues. Dr. Chicurel expressed his appreciation for the County's participation in the project and Mr. Dorrill's efforts in obtaining their contribution. EXTRA CCSO PATROLS DISCUSSION Mr. Dorrill provided a historical perspective on this agenda item. He explained that a number of years ago, our enabling ordinance, which sets out the powers, duties and responsibilities of the PBSD taxing district, was amended to include contracting for extraordinary road patrols from the Sheriff's Dept. This service was provided for many years until the Parkland School shooting in Broward County, at which time the state mandated the presence of uniformed law enforcement in every school. Mr. Dorrill reported that the Sheriffs Dept. has informed us that we are now eligible to contract for these extra patrols, which would only be available after school hours, for minimum 4-hour shifts. He noted that the Sheriff s Dept. has data on "geo-cells" which are historical areas of higher crime. Mr. Coleman commented that historically the PBSD budgeted $30,000/year for this service. He suggested that we request uniformed Sheriffs deputies at a cost of approximately $78/hour. Pelican Bay Services Division Landscape & Safety Committee Meeting June 26, 2024 Mr. Griffith commented on recent reports of check thefts (via the mail service). He noted that he has discussed this issue with the Sheriff's Dept and has learned that (1) this is a county- wide issue, (2) these incidents have been turned over to the U.S. Postal Service, and (3) it is believed that the thefts are occurring at an internal sorting facility and not locally. Mr. Griffith also commented on the projected increase in traffic over the next 10 years and suggested that we need a larger plan to address this. He suggested that we look into the possibility of installing speed bumps, slow bumps, or gates in our community. Mr. Hildebrandt commented that we may expect pushback by PB residents on any installation of speed bumps or slow bumps. Mr. Dorr•ill commented that staff will explore speed bumps and slow bumps. Dr. Chicurel commented that the Sheriffs Dept. has indicated that we may request a maximum of two details/week, after 4 p.m. When school is session, details will only be available on weekends; when school is not in session, details will be available seven days a week. Mr. Weir commented that school will be in session beginning in August, and therefore patrols would only be available to us on weekend evenings, which would not be very cost effective and would not do much good. Mr. Griffith commented that any additional policing would be a positive to our community. Ms. Hamilton motioned, At Griffith seconded to take up the Sheriff s Dept. on their offer to give us this extra patrol coverage. The motion carried 4.0, with Mr. Weir abstaining. Dr. Chicurel commented that he will bring this recommendation to the board, and that he will work with the Sheriff s deputies on the timing of the extra patrols. Mr. Coleman reported that the Sheriff's Dept. is available for safety meetings. ALL -WAY STOPS Dr. Chicurel commented (and Mr. Coleman confirmed) that we will request traffic studies, during season, of four intersections including (1) PB Blvd. & North Pointe Dr., (2) PB Blvd. & Hammock Oak Dr., (3) Gulf Park Dr. & Ridgewood Dr., and (4) Gulf Park Dr. & Green Tree Dr. Dr. Chicurel noted that in the recent past, the County indicated that although a traffic study indicated that 3-way stops were not necessary at the North Pointe Dr./Pelican Bay Blvd. intersection, we would be able to install these stop signs, provided the PBSD paid for the signage. Dr. Chicurel asked staff to look into whether this option would still be available to us. Dr. Chicurel commented on an e-mail sent to Commissioner Hall by a Cresent resident regarding safety at the intersection of Hammock Oak Dr. and PB Blvd. (included in the agenda packet). Mr. Coleman commented that if a traffic study determined that stop signs were not appropriate for this intersection, then the next step would be for us to hire a consultant to complete a study to look at the possibility/need for a "flashing light crosswalk" at this intersection. Mr. Weir suggested that 3-way stop signs are not necessary at the two intersections with Gulf Park Dr. He noted that he frequently drives on Gulf Park Dr. and has not observed any traffic issues. Dr. Chicurel commented that he is in favor of traffic studies of all four intersections, and that he will report back to the board, our intent to ask for these studies to be performed during season. L&S COMMITTEE MEMBER QUESTIONNAIRE DISCUSSION FORM 3 Pelican Bay Services Division Landscape & Safety Committee Meeting June 26, 2024 Dr. Chicurel thanked committee members for their input via a questionnaire. (Responses from Mr. Cullen and Mr. Griffith were included in the agenda packet.) He noted that issues discussed on Mr. Cullen's questionnaire are being addressed as we continue to restore and maintain our landscaping throughout the community. Dr. Chicurel thanked Mr. Greenfield and his staff for all of the recent improvements to our landscaping, addressing both aesthetics as well as line -of - sight issues. Dr. Chicurel summarized the three issues provided on Mr. Griffith's questionnaire submittal as (1) restoring the treescape, (2) installing a tree canopy, and (3) developing a four-year plan. Mr. Griffith commented that we have no discreet policies or a plan in place for tree -planting. His thoughts/ideas/suggestions on trees included the following. • The City of Naples recently implemented an aggressive program of planting trees in right- of-way areas. The PBSD should implement a similar program. • More shade trees would benefit our residents, many of whom are unable to enjoy our new sidewalks, due to the lack of shade. • Pelican Bay has lost many trees to storms as well as removal by homeowners which have never been replaced. • PBF covenants include tree requirements; resident non-compliance should be addressed by the PBF. • The PBSD has the power to install and maintain trees in the right-of-way. Mr. Hildebrandt commented that the PBF's Strategic Planning Committee has been discussing an overall vegetation plan which he expects will be shared with the PBSD very soon. Dr. Chicurel commented that we cannot force homeowners to accept new trees onto their private property and that we must be cognizant of diverse opinions. He noted that there are also many areas with utility conflicts, which prevent new tree plantings in these areas. Dr. Chicurel commented that during the sidewalk project, staff has looked at Ridgewood Dr. and Green Tree Dr. and put together a presentation of possible locations to install new trees. RIDGEWOOD &GREEN TREE POSSIBLE PLANTING SITES Mr. Coleman provided the results of a feasibility study of potential tree planting sites on Ridgewood Dr. and Green Tree Dr., prepared by LJA Engineers (the new owner of Agnoli, Barber, & Brundage). Diagrams of the areas along these streets, with potential tree -planting sites identified, were reviewed by the committee. Mr. Coleman commented that the PBSD does not own any land. He also noted that many of the potential sites are located in the right-of-way on private property. Several committee members noted that if trees were planted in many of these sites, they would create line -of -sight issues. Dr. Chicurel commented that representatives of the Waterford Assoc. have expressed that they do not want any new trees planted on their property or adjacent to their property. Mr. Dorrill commented that we could maintain any newly planted trees on private property in the right-of-way, but that we would require a willing homeowner to provide the necessary irrigation for the tree. He noted that board approval would not be required to purchase new trees, but that we would want the board to weigh in on installing trees in single family neighborhoods. Mr. Fogg commented that the board should approve any new tree planting policy. Dr. Chicurel concluded that 2 trees can be planted in sites identified by LJA Engineers, and that additional analysis and conversations with homeowners are needed in order to add more sites in which to install new trees (as identified by LJA). 4 Pelican Bay Services Division Landscape & Safety Committee Meeting June 26, 2024 PAVER CROSSWALKS Dr. Chicurel reported on problems associated with pavers in PB crosswalks which include (1) injuries (documentation of a recent reported injury was included in the agenda packet) and (2) the high cost of maintaining the pavers. He commented that the lateral pressure from turning cars dislodges pavers. Mr. Coleman recommended implementing a pilot project to replace the pavers in one crosswalk with concrete pavers (which resemble pavers and can be purchased in any color) and review their durability over time. He noted that we would need to obtain an approval from Traffic Ops. before implementing such a pilot project. Mr. Dorrill suggested that committee members look at the bomanite-stamped concrete which was installed by the County (approximately 25 years ago) at the intersection of Golden Gate Pkwy., and Goodlette Rd., adjacent to Naples High School and the Coastland Mall, to see how this concrete has withstood the test of time or whether it has been removed. Mr. Dorrill noted that our existing PB pavers are clay -fired brick which was selected by the PBF because this material does not fade and does not require pressure -washing. Mr. Trent Waterhouse suggested that we monitor any additional noise which may result fi•om the installation of concrete pavers in our pilot project. OTHER COMMENTS Mr. Stone asked whether there was any update on the possibility of a median modification on US41 at the intersection of US41 and Gulf Park Dr. Mr. Coleman responded that the state is not motivated to make any median modifications. Mr. Weir commented that there is a sign, facing outbound traffic on Gulf Park Dr., which states, "in this lane, right turn only" which may imply that vehicles may turn left from the other lane. He suggested that it may be helpful to change the wording on this sign to reinforce that all traffic may only make a right turn. Mr. Coleman thanked the PBF for the new Oakmont fountain. Mr. Trent Waterhouse asked for an update on plans by the Naples Grande Hotel to close off the parking lot at the south end of Crayton Rd. or any other plans for modifications to their property adjacent to this intersection. Mr. Coleman responded that he has had no updates from the Naples Grande Hotel. Mr. Waterhouse asked whether new sharrows on Myra Janco Daniels Blvd. will be included in the PBSD summer sharrow re -painting project. Mr. Dorrill replied that we will need a right-of-way permit to allow us to paint any new sharrows. By consensus, the committee agreed that new sharrows on Myra Janco Daniels Blvd. should be included in our summer sharrow project. Mr. Coleman commented that staff will pursue the necessary County permit. The meeting was adjourned at 3:00 Joe Chicurel, Chairman Minutes approved LI as presented OR L� as amended ON � 1 date Agenda Item #7 Page 1 of 4 PBSD Landscape & Safety Committee Meeting Pelican Bay Foundation Landscaping Related Strategic Plan Update 9/23/24 To: PBSD Landscape &SafetyCommlttee From: Tony D'Errico, Marian Jacobson The purpose of this note is to provide an update on worl<underway bythe Foundation as it pursues: Strategic Plan Goal6. Maintain and enhance Pelican Bay's infrastructure, visual appeal, and ambiance of quiet beauty. Objective 2. Create a Master Landscape Plan covering standards, jurisdiction, and enforcementthat applies to all property owners and maintenance within Pelican Bay. The Foundation Board approved athree-year strategic plan in March 2024. The plan has seven goals and multiple objectives. Tactic teams comprised of one Foundation staff member and one Strategic Planning Committee (SPC) member have been designated as co -leads responsible for developing and implementing a tactical plan to achieve the objectives. Tony D'Errico and SPC member Marian Jacobson are the co -leads responsible for Goal 6, Objective 2. They have hired consultant Susan Watts (land planner, landscape architect and planned community development manager) to assist them. In July, Tony, Mike Buffalo, Marian and Susan metwith Michael Fogg and Neil Dorrill. Later in the month Tony, Marian, and Susan met with Dr. Joe Chicurel. The purpose of both meetings was to share the Foundation's tactical approach to its landscaping related strategic plan objective. Below is a summary of whatwas discussed atthe July meetings with updates since July noted in red. 1. The Foundation has hired Felipe Lemus of Florida GIS Solutions to create a GIS map of the PUD that identifies ownership and various Jurisdictions. PBSD already has a GIS map of its areas of responsibilities, and the Foundation will benefit from having a similar information tool. (Mapping project completed 8/30) 2. The Foundation plans to hire a registered landscape architect with experience in Florida coastal planned communities to assist it in developing a landscape vision statement and general set of master landscape guidelines for Pelican Bay. The Foundation recognizes that PBSD has landscape guidelines in place that are being followed successfully and which deliverwell on safety, line of sight, efficiency of maintenance, and general beautification. However, Pelican Bay is one of the oldest planned communities in Collier Agenda Item #7 Page 2 of 4 County, and the Foundation's Strategic Marinas Identified thatthere is a need and an opportunity to enhance the role of landscaping as a source of member satisfaction and branding competitive advantage for Pelican Bay. Furthermore, it is a best practice for a communitythe size of Pelican Bayto have an articulated landscape vision and set of master landscape principles in place to ensure consistency of design and execution over time no matter who is In leadership. • Tony emphasized that, ultimately, the Foundation would like development and support of master landscape guidelines be a joint Foundation/PBSD effort, because It is important both entities speak as one voice since they both represent Pelican Bay residents. In the initial stages, the Foundation willtake the lead on this initiative, but it is understood that PBSD leadership is critical to implementation. • Update: based on outreach and discussion with four potential landscape architect firms and on the advice of our consultant Susan Watts, the Foundation has determined that at this stage putting out an RFP is not possible. Several qualified firms we contacted do not care to work with an HOA or they simply declined to bid. We also think it would be helpfulto define more clearly and focus the project scope. We have found a firm that we think has the right expertise to help us go from concept to project plan and have asked for a proposal for those services. Naturally, any related work resulting from the plan will be placed out forbid. • Joe shared historical context about his experience implementing the Community Improvement Plan (CIP) when he joined the PBSD board in 2013. The CIP was Jointly developed by the Foundation and PBSD during 2009-2010. Joe explained that the plan, while good intentioned, had some unintentional consequences such as increased maintenance costs and line of sight complications. Update: That learning is noted, and the Foundation will seek PBSD's input as it pursues its work. 3. We discussed the idea of a joint pilot project between the Foundation and PBSD Landscape &Safety (L&S) Committee to maximize opportunities to replant trees adjacent to the new sidewalk. • Joe agreed that Foundation involvement with outreach to single family homeowners and HOA's would be essential in developing additional options to plant trees. • Ownership of the real estate underneath the Right of Way and the resultant implications for planting, maintenance and easements must be identified and understood better before a tree planting plan can be fully developed. It is anticipated that this ROW ownership will be discussed at the next Landscape & Safety Committee meeting agenda. Agenda Item #7 Page 3 of 4 PBSD Board Functions, Powers, and Duties The Collier County Board of County Commissioners created the Pelican Bay Municipal Services Taxing and Benefit Unit, and the Pelican Bay Services Division Board to advise the Commissioners on important issues that pertain to Pelican Bay residents by enacting Ordinances 2002_27, 2006-05, 2013.19, and 2013-61 as amended. "The Unit is formed for the purpose of providing street lighting, water management, beach renourishment, ambient noise management, extraordinary law enforcement service and beautification, including but not limited fo beautification of recreation facilities, sidewalk, street and median areas, identification markers, the maintenance of conservation or preserve areas including the restoration of the mangrove forest preserve and fo finance the landscaping beautification of only that portion of U.S. 41 from Pine Ridge Road to Vanderbilt Beach Road in the above- described taxing and benefit unit and to that end shall possess all the powers to do all things reasonably necessary to provide such services. The Unit will be solely responsible for advising the County on dredging and maintaining Clam Pass for the purpose of enhancing the health of the affected mangrove forest, and will manage such activities for the County."

The ,easement is itself a real property interest, but legal title to the underlying land is retained by the original owner for all other purposes. Typical easements are for :access to another property (often redundantly stated "access and egress," since :entry and exit are over the same path), for utility or sewer lines both under and ..above ground, use of spring water, entry to make repairs on a fence or slide area, drive cattle across and other uses. Easements can be created by a deed ;to be recorded just like any real property interest, by continuous and open use by the non -owner against the rights of the property owner for a statutory number of years, typically five ("prescriptive easement'), or to do equity (fairness), 'including giving access to a "land -locked" piece of property (sometimes called an "easement of necessity"), Easements may be specifically described by boundaries ("24 feet wide along the northern line for a distance of 180 feet'), somewhat indefinite ("along the trail to the northern boundary") or just for a purpose ("to provide access to the Jones property" or "access to the spring") sometimes called a "floating easement." There is also a "negative easement' such as a prohibition against building a structure which blocks a view. Title reports and title abstracts will usually describe all existing easements upon a parcel of real property. Issues of maintenance, joint use, locking gates, damage to easement and other conflicts clog the judicial system, mostly due to Agenda Item #7a Page 2 of 5 IR Categories: Code Enforcement Transportation Engineering Permitting, Planning. & Zoning Transportation Planning The Right -of -Way is land dedicated, deeded, used, or to be used for a street, alley, walkway, boulevard, drainage facility, access for ingress and egress, or other purpose by the public, certain designated individuals, or governing bodies.

At the June 26th L&S Cte. meeting, Chad Coleman presented an engineering/arborists' determination of sites on Green Tree Drive and Ridgewood Drive that trees could be planted. As each site was evaluated and considered, conflicts and site realities were discussed. This discussion led to the enumerating of factors that negated certain sites from consideration. The Landscape &Safety Report to the full board on July 10th 2024 listed these factors as "Criteria and Considerations". Agenda Item#8 Page 2 of 2 CRITERIA &CONSIDERATIONS TO DETERMINE IF AN AREA IS SUITABLE FOR TREE PLANTING AND/OR TO ESTABLISH A TREE CANOPY (1) A "willing resident" and/or association buy in (signed County Landscape Maintenance Agreement) (2) No utility conflicts (3) No vehicular and/or pedestrian Line of Sight blockage (4) No sidewalk maintenance problems and/or future structural damage (5) PBSD Landscape Dept. recommendations as to which trees would be "clean"trees; sidewalk friendly; and reasonably easy to maintain (6) Sites where shade trees would create slick slippery sidewalks (mold and algae) when repeated drenching with water (Le. irrigation water) would be contraindicated `�. �'an�o Q�� c��i�au�� �. �� G71©RJJf�� ���� 9119���3 � �®@d�CfirSl��f� ��I�� �. �a���c�Ya��o � 6��61/d � � 1�61�. ar�d � ��11� d �� �� Q� G��^�.D Agenda Item #10 Page 1 of 1 NO i LEFT I TURK, No Left Turn Sign h1UTCD R3-2A Awa lable
