COMMENTS FROM THE PUBLIC

[Recording time: 01:15 – 18:30]
Ms. Holland stated that staff would be starting a three-minute timer for public comment and reviewed the District’s adopted public comment procedures. Ms. Willson clarified that District procedures do not allow for public comment time to be transferred from one person to another, but the Board can decide if they will deviate from policy [on a case-by-case basis]. The Board unanimously agreed that [with regard to today’s request] time could be transferred to allow another person more time to speak.

Tony Tozzi, a resident of Ave Maria, spoke on behalf of himself and his wife. He provided the Board and staff with a memorandum he prepared regarding the Landowner Election and the Latitudes update. Mr. Tozzi summarized his memorandum in detail, and it is included in the minutes herein per the direction of the Board.

Mr. Jeff Plys, a resident of Ave Maria, spoke regarding the special benefits of Ave Maria. He reiterated what Mr. Tozzi previously spoke of and mentioned additional benefits throughout the community.
Mr. Klucik thanked Mr. Tozzi for his time and being diligent. He asked if staff could post the notification of the Landowner Election in the Friday Flash. Ms. Willson confirmed that there was no requirement to go above and beyond statutory requirements, but yes, staff could include the notice in the Friday Flash. Mr. Klucik stated that the legal notice was silly and not effective, and that he believed staff should adopt a policy regarding sending emails to notice residents. Discussion ensued regarding public records laws and District staff sending out mass emails. The Board directed staff to look into additional options to communicate election notices to residents. Mr. Klucik and Mr. Casalanguida discussed Latitude and the need to move forward with a methodology to determine special benefits.

OLD BUSINESS

AMSCD Projects Update

[Recording time: 19:35 – 20:55] Ms. Holland stated that District project updates were provided in the meeting book. Mr. Klucik asked about the entry feature. Ms. Holland stated that staff received pricing for replacing the Ave Maria lettering and for modifying the water feature, but staff was awaiting pricing for removing the water feature pond. Mr. Klucik asked about the Board Seat Turnover Analysis and Ms. Holland confirmed that it was included on today’s agenda.

Board Seat Turnover Analysis Update

[Recording time: 21:10 – 1:12:10] Ms. Holland introduced Ms. Willson and Mr. Tryka to present this item. Ms. Willson explained that she reviewed the information publicly available for similar special districts, all established by Special Act, to compare board seat turnover metrics. Mr. Klucik asked Ms. Willson if any of the districts had undevelopable land included in the district boundary, similar to the Ave Maria Stewardship Community District. Ms. Willson responded that she was not aware of this request while doing her research and advised that she was not sure if this information was available. Discussion between Mr. Klucik and Ms. Willson ensued regarding the last [5th] seat and the qualified elector population, with Ms. Willson confirming that all of the qualified elector numbers were based on projections and that the total anticipated population was not available for each district. Mr. Klucik stated that he believed the turnover method for each district was determined by lobbyists who create the language, in favor of the developer and that he did not see a rational explanation. Mr. Klucik stated that 50% was embedded in the community and Mr. Tryka confirmed that the third seat turns over at 50% based on the urban map method [described in the District Act]. Mr. Casalanguida stated that the developer does not pay lobbyists, and the Board has already agreed that the urban map does not work [will never get to Seats 4 and 5]. He stated that the 60% population calculation made sense because the developer still has a vested interest. Mr. Casalanguida noted that West Villages Improvement District (WVID) also had controversy with the urban map, which is why they converted to the population method, and they use equal increments for determining Board seats, and stated that there was nothing nefarious about even increments. Discussion ensued between Mr. Klucik and Mr. Casalanguida. Mr. Roth suggested that it might be easier to move the population-based method through with even increments, as WVID pursued recently, rather than create something new. Mr. Klucik asked Mr. Tozzi to come to the microphone to repeat his simple suggestion for the Board. Mr. Tozzi suggested that the Board ask the legislature to revise the percentages in the urban map method to get to the third seat faster. Mr. Casalanguida replied that revising the methodology to get to the third seat faster was “cherry picking.” Discussion ensued amongst the Board Members regarding Mr. Tozzi’s suggestion. Mr. Roth asked Ms. Willson to reiterate WVID’s legislative change as the Board was leaning toward transitioning to the population based method based on qualified electors. Ms. Willson reviewed the legislative changes that were recently approved for WVID.

A motion was made by Mr. Casalanguida directing staff to take the information that was provided by District Legal Counsel, look at what WVID did to convert from urban map to population based on qualified electors in even increments, and also look at turning over the last seat faster based on what other recent districts had done, and bring back what that process would look like and outlining the numbers.

Mr. Roth seconded the motion but suggested amending the motion to include the little catch-all that some of the other districts had included [regarding construction completion/buildout and the number of qualified electors]. Mr. Casalanguida agreed with Mr. Roth’s suggested amendment. Mr. Klucik asked that the motion also be amended to include exploring Mr. Tozzi’s suggestion. Mr. Casalanguida did not accept Mr. Klucik’s amendment as he does not believe the urban map is the solution. Mr. Roth asked for discussion. Discussion ensued regarding Mr. Tozzi’s suggestion.

After no further discussion, Mr. Roth called for a vote and the motion, as amended, passed unanimously.

Mr. Klucik suggested language directing staff to look into Mr. Tozzi’s suggestion. Discussion ensued amongst the Board Members regarding changing the percentages in the urban map calculation. Mr. Casalanguida suggested that Mr. Tozzi bring something back to the Board, but not get staff involved. Mr. Tryka explained the challenges of the urban map process. Mr. Klucik explained that he was suggesting changing the percentages for seat turnover based on numbers that made sense, and that he was not suggesting changing the boundary. Ms. Willson asked for clarification on the Board’s direction.

Mr. Casalanguida confirmed that he was requesting staff to bring back the process with equal increments, including a catch-all and faster turnover at the end, and then provide the steps moving forward if the Board agrees to move forward with the legislation. Mr. Roth added that staff should update Mr. Tryka’s table on Page 66 of the meeting book based on the motion to include the catch-all number at the end. Discussion ensued regarding the 50% calculation in the table on Page 66 of the meeting book. Mr. DiFlorio asked if Mr. Tozzi was willing to agree to Mr. Klucik’s direction and Mr. Tozzi agreed.

Special Assessment Analysis Update-Latitude Property
[Recording time: 1:12:15 – 1:50:43] Ms. Holland introduced Ms. Willson to present this item. Ms. Willson provided an overview of the special assessment process and the implementation process. She emphasized that a special assessment was not a tax. She explained the special and peculiar benefits and the focus on the service the District was providing. Discussion ensued about the benefits and value of the parks and Ms. Willson noted that the parks were owned by of the Master Association. Mr. Casalanguida acknowledged that Commissioner Bill McDaniel was present at tonight’s meeting, and that Commissioner McDaniel requested that landowner [Latitude] pay a proportionate share whether or not they stay in the District. All of the Supervisors received an email today from Latitude’s attorney agreeing to include this as a condition of the SRA amendment. Discussion ensued amongst the Board Members regarding how the proportionate share was determined. Mr. Roth asked about the limited functions of the District. Ms. Willson confirmed the District’s functions/roles, and Mr. Roth stated that the District was not responsible for the goods and services. Mr. Casalanguida asked staff to pull up a map of the SRA boundary.

Ten minute break [1:26:24 – 1:35:45]

Mr. Casalanguida provided a brief history of the rural land stewardship program and explained the benefits of the goods and services, located on the periphery of the town, to the general population. He explained that the residents of Latitude would not use District roads to get to the goods and services, and that they will run their trips on the external roads. Latitude will pay their fair share, and he believed that number would be five to fifteen cents on the dollar, but a study would be done by professionals to determine this number. Discussion ensued between Mr. Klucik and Mr. Casalanguida regarding the landowner representatives, and Mr. Roth requested that this item be wrapped up. Ms. Willson summarized the remainder of her memorandum and recommended consideration of engaging a methodology consultant for further review and analysis, at the Board’s discretion.

A motion was made by Mr. Casalanguida to put together and advertise an RFP [Request for Proposal] for a methodology consultant to assess what the special benefit would be, have staff score it and bring it back to the Board with their recommendation; and the Board votes to decide who is selected to perform the methodology. Ms. Willson explained RFPs were not typically used for methodology consultants as this was contractual professional services, and it falls outside the scope of CCNA [Consultants’ Competitive Negotiation Act]. Mr. Roth asked if this could be advertised as an RFQ [Request for Qualifications]. Ms. Willson confirmed that it could; an RFQ could be put together for these services, but this was different than what had been done in the past. Mr. Casalanguida agreed with the RFQ process. Discussion ensued amongst the Board Members and they ultimately agreed that the Board of Supervisors needed to act in the best interest of the District. Ms. Willson confirmed that Board would like staff to reach out to potential entities that perform this service to notify them of the existence of the RFQ. There was no further discussion and the Board unanimously agreed that the direction to staff was clear.

NEW BUSINESS

Consider Resolution No. 2026-13 – Approving Fiscal Year 2026/2027 Proposed Budget, O&M Assessments, and Setting a Public Hearing

[Recording time: 1:50:54 – 2:20:50] Resolution No. 2026-13 was presented, entitled:

RESOLUTION NO. 2026-13
A RESOLUTION OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF THE AVE MARIA STEWARDSHIP COMMUNITY DISTRICT APPROVING PROPOSED BUDGET(S) FOR FY 2026/2027; SETTING A PUBLIC HEARING THEREON AND DIRECTING PUBLICATION; ADDRESSING TRANSMITTAL AND POSTING REQUIREMENTS; ADDRESSING SEVERABILITY AND EFFECTIVE DATE.
Ms. Holland introduced this item. She reminded the Board that the budget was presented in detail at the Budget Workshop on May 15th. She reviewed the items that changed since the Workshop including increasing the vehicle/fuel maintenance line item by $5,000 due to the increase in fuel costs, increasing the font size of the Total Estimated Developer/Builder On Roll Assessment in current year on Page 5 of the budget book, and correcting a formula error to the 2025 master bonds to the developer contribution on the detailed operating page. She explained that the budget included 100% developer contribution currently for the 2025 master bonds, but that would get reduced, and debt assessments would increase as soon as staff gets the first assessment roll of the summer. Ms. Holland indicated that the proposed budget assumes contract renewal/extension with both Davey Tree for Landscape and Maintenance Services and the District Audit. She explained the office space rent line items for both Admin and Maintenance. Ms. Holland reminded the Board that at the Budget Workshop, the Board discussed the option of replacing the entry sign/lettering at the Ave Maria Boulevard entrance this year and removing it from the budget next year. The Board unanimously agreed and directed staff to move forward with the sign replacement this year and remove the $45,000 line item in the proposed budget. Discussion ensued amongst the Board Members and Ms. Holland regarding the proposed budget and the reserves.

Ms. Holland reviewed the proposed operation and maintenance (O&M) assessment, including reserves, and explained that these numbers had not changed since the Budget Workshop. She reviewed the assessment numbers on the television for the audience to view and explained that this was the third and final increase of the previously approved stair-step increase. Ms. Holland reviewed the reserves and explained that it was a fluid document that required continuous updates based on the tax roll. She presented the reserve table for the next five years, but the reserve funding document was projected for the next 30

years. After this year, the assessment is only anticipated to increase by the Consumer Price Index (CPI) in future years. Discussion ensued about the CPI increase and the Board agreed that this may need to be revisited in the future. Mr. Klucik asked about the lake bank repairs and why they was taking so long. Mr. DiFlorio confirmed that he recently received an email with an update regarding the change in the type of liner which resulted in additional time to complete the work.

Mr. DiFlorio reminded staff that when the letter goes out informing residents of the increase, that there will be a lot of questions. He suggested staff inform the residents that this was as a result of the third step of the stair step increase previously approved by the Board. Ms. Holland confirmed that staff would attempt to better inform residents of the increase and potentially include FAQs with the letter.

Mr. DiFlorio asked where the maintenance office space was now and Ms. Holland explained that staff stored some equipment at the Ave Maria Utility Company (AMUC) maintenance building. Discussion ensued regarding the AMUC space and the District’s ownership of the irrigation utility and shared space. Ms. Holland explained that the proposed flex space would store the mini trucks, equipment, spare light poles, and other District maintenance items. AMUC is outgrowing the current space and will have a unit in the flex space as well. Mr. DiFlorio stated that he would like to see additional police/security in Ave Maria and was interested in adding this to the budget. Ms. Willson reviewed the District’s powers relating to enhanced law enforcement services. Mr. Casalanguida suggested a discussion with the Sheriff’s office regarding police presence in Ave Maria. Discussion ensued and the Board unanimously agreed to remove the Administrative line item for Audio Visual Media for $15,000 and replace it with Enhanced Security in the amount of $15,000 in the Maintenance budget. Mr. DiFlorio requested a meeting with CCSO [Collier County Sheriff’s Office] regarding what they can and cannot do.

Ms. Holland recommended setting the Final Budget Hearing for the currently scheduled August 4, 2026, meeting at 6:00 p.m. at Grand Hall at Del Webb. The Board unanimously agreed to the date and time.
A motion was made by Mr. DiFlorio, seconded by Ms. Robertson and passed unanimously adopting Resolution 2026-13 – Adopting Fiscal Year 2026/2027 Proposed Budget, as amended, O&M Assessments, and Setting a Public Hearing for August 4, 2026, at 6:00 p.m. at Grand Hall at Del Webb.

Consider Resolution No. 2026-14 – Approving Fiscal Year 2026/2027 Proposed Budget for the Master Irrigation Utility System
[Recording time: 2:20:52 – 2:22:09] Resolution No. 2026-14 was presented, entitled:
RESOLUTION NO. 2026-14
A RESOLUTION OF THE AVE MARIA STEWARDSHIP COMMUNITY DISTRICT ADOPTING A PROPOSED FISCAL YEAR 2026/2027 BUDGET FOR THE MASTER IRRIGATION UTILITY SYSTEM

Ms. Holland presented the Master Irrigation Utility Budget. She explained that the budget was similar to years past, but this year, the revenue was predicted to be a little higher than the expenditures, resulting in a surplus in the budget. She explained that this was the intent of the rate study and rate increases that began in October 2025. Ms. Holland stated that Jason Vogel was present at the meeting to answer any questions. There were no questions or discussion.

A motion was made by Mr. Casalanguida, seconded by Mr. DiFlorio and passed unanimously adopting Resolution 2026-14 – Adopting Fiscal Year 2026/2027 Proposed Budget for the Master Irrigation Utility System, as presented.

Consider Preliminary Approval of Developer Funding Agreement

[Recording time 2:22:11 – 2:25:50] Ms. Holland presented this item and explained that the proposed FY 2026/2027 Developer Funding Agreement was included in the meeting book. She noted that the Board did not need to approve the agreement until the adoption of the final budget, but it was included with the proposed budget for review and comments. The Developer Funding Agreement addresses the developer funding for the O&M deficit similar to prior years. The Developer Funding Agreement also addresses the Master Irrigation Utility Budget. Mr. Roth asked if there were any changes to the Agreement from previous years. Ms. Willson responded that the Agreement was modified in accordance with the changes to the Master Irrigation Utility Budget. She explained that the Irrigation Budget did not have a line item for developer contribution, so that was removed from the Agreement, but it still included language for deficit funding. Mr. Klucik asked Ms. Willson for clarification on the change, and she clarified the reason for the change in the language. Mr. Klucik noted that this was the preliminary approval of the agreement and asked if this would come back for final approval. Ms. Holland confirmed that it would; the final will be brought back to the Board with the final budget.

A motion was made by Mr. Casalanguida, seconded by Mr. DiFlorio and passed approving the Preliminary Developer Funding Agreement, as presented.

Consider Change Orders for Time Extension Only in Conjunction with the Anthem Parkway Project
Change Order No. 9 to Agreement with Earth Tech Enterprises, Inc. (Anthem Pkwy Ph 5A)
Change Order No. 2 to Agreement with Earth Tech Enterprises, Inc. (Anthem Pkwy Ph 5B)
Change Order No. 2 to Agreement with Douglas N. Higgins, Inc. (Anthem Pkwy Ph 5B)
Change Order No. 2 to Agreement with O’Donnell Landscapes, Inc. (Anthem Pkwy Ph 5B)
[Recording time 2:25:52 – 2:28:15] Ms. Holland presented this item. She explained that Anthem Parkway Phase 5A and 5B construction projects had been ongoing since 2023 and 2025, respectively. The proposed change orders exclusively request to increase the number of days to the contract time and if approved, would formally modify the project’s completion dates in the construction contracts. Staff and engineering consultants underestimated the time it would take to complete all construction activities and omitted adjusting the number of days on previous change orders that were brought before the Board. Ms. Holland confirmed that Anthem Parkway North would be fully open before the Ave Maria Elementary School opens this fall, including acceptance by Collier County. Ms. Holland assured the Board that she would pay closer attention to these contracts moving forward.

A motion was made by Mr. Casalanguida, seconded by Mr. DiFlorio and passed unanimously approving Change Orders for Time Extension Only in Conjunction with the Anthem Parkway Project, as presented above.

Consider Approval of a Pathway Easement from the Ave Maria Master Association to the District for a Sidewalk Along Anthem Parkway Phase 5A

[Recording time 2:28:17 – 2:33:45] Ms. Holland presented this item. She explained that the Anthem Parkway Phase 5A plans included a 12-ft wide asphalt multi-use pathway along the north side of the roadway, similar to the rest of Anthem Parkway from Pope John Paul II Boulevard to Ave Maria Boulevard.

The pathway was constructed and is functioning efficiently. Earlier this year, District staff and Peninsula Engineering met with Collier County Public Schools (CCPS) and the new principal of Ave Maria Elementary School (AME) to discuss transportation logistics well before the school opens in August 2026. CCPS expressed concerns that the existing 5-ft wide concrete sidewalk on the south side of Anthem Parkway terminates at the Water Park. CCPS was concerned that students walking to school may use the sidewalk to get to school and because the sidewalk terminates with no connection to the multi-use path on the north side of the roadway, the pedestrians may choose to cross the road at a location with no designated crosswalk, placing the pedestrians at risk. District staff and Peninsula Engineering further discussed the concerns and recognized the benefit of extending the 5-ft wide concrete sidewalk along the south side of Anthem Parkway North to the dedicated signalized pedestrian crosswalk to AME. Peninsula Engineering conducted due diligence in the design of the sidewalk extension and determined the best location for the sidewalk was just outside the District’s right-of-way, on the Master Association’s (MA) property, and the District will own and maintain the 5-ft wide sidewalk. Peninsula Engineering has submitted plans to Collier County to permit the sidewalk, and they are requesting pricing for construction. District staff hopes to have the sidewalk constructed prior to the first day of school. If the sidewalk construction is not completed in time for school, there is a plan in place to install additional signage to direct pedestrian traffic to safe travel routes. Discussion ensued amongst the Board Members and staff clarified the location of the proposed sidewalk.

A motion was made by Mr. Casalanguida, seconded by Mr. DiFlorio and passed unanimously approving a Pathway Easement from the Ave Maria Master Association to the District for a Sidewalk Along Anthem Parkway Phase 5A, as presented.

Consider Approval of Amendment to District Office Lease Agreement with Ave Maria Development
[Recording time: 2:33:46 – 2:35:15] Ms. Holland presented this item. She explained that the Board of Supervisors approved a lease agreement last year with Ave Maria Development (AMD) for two executive suites in Town Core Building #3 (5072 Annunciation Circle, Suites 218 & 219). The original lease included renewal options of four additional terms of one year, at a maximum annual increase of 3%. The proposed rent for the first renewal is $1,900 per month, for a total of $22,800 annually, which is just under the 3% maximum annual increase rate. Staff has budgeted accordingly in the proposed FY 2026- 2027 budget. She added that staff was planning for the 5-10 year capital improvement projects for the District, which will include the government building.

A motion was made by Mr. Casalanguida, seconded by Mr. DiFlorio and passed unanimously approving the Amendment to District Office Lease Agreement with Ave Maria Development, as presented.

Consider Approval of Partnership Letter with Collier County and Authorizing District Manager to Send to County Manager

[Recording time: 2:35:25 – 2:37:08] Ms. Holland presented this item. She explained that staff prepared a letter summarizing the discussion between the District and Collier County earlier this year, included in the meeting book on Pages 176 and 177. County staff verbally agreed to take over ownership and maintenance of the streetlights on Oil Well Road and to donate the 0.76 -acre parcel of land owned by the County to the District. With the Board’s approval, Ms. Holland explained that she would send the letter to the County Manager and the County Manager would present the letter to the Board of County Commissioners so they can take the necessary action to keep the partnership moving forward. Mr. Casalanguida stated that Commissioner McDaniel was supportive of this request. Mr. DiFlorio asked where the parcel was located. Ms. Holland confirmed the location was to the left [while looking at] of the fire station. Mr. DiFlorio asked

if there was a playground located on the property and Ms. Holland confirmed there was not; the playground is not located on the property.

A motion was made by Mr. Casalanguida, seconded by Mr. DiFlorio and passed unanimously approving the Partnership Letter with Collier County and Authorizing District Manager to Send to County Manager, as presented.

To:	 AMSD Board of Supervisors	Date: June 2, 2026 From:	 Anthony Tozzi, 6415 Rushmore Road, Ave Maria FL 34142 Contact:	609-954-6761 or tonytozzi@comcast.net
Re:	Ave Maria Stewardship District Legislative Amendments
I am submitting this memo in regard to Resolution No. 2026-12 and the Agenda Item dealing with the 2 legal opinion letters that analyze the special benefit standard for the District to impose special assessments.
RESOLUTION NO. 2026-12 establishes the date, time and place for the Landowner Election for November of this year. Last month, I commented on how the Notice to residents about a Landowner Elections is ineffective since the Ave Maria statute only requires a Notice to be published in a County newspaper twice before the election. I also suggested that this Board seek legislative changes regarding Board of Supervisors elections to address the matter.
I am not here to rehash those comments. Rather, I recognize that legislative change on this matter is not possible before the November election, and perhaps not possible for some time or at all. Therefore, even though the statute only requires 2 newspaper notices, that doesn’t mean this Board can’t do more for its constituents. This Board has a good track record of transparency and being open to greater involvement by residents. In furtherance of that record, I ask the Board to adopt a policy that would provide an additional means of notice to District residents. An inexpensive and easy option is to send an email blast to all residents notifying them of the date, time and place of the meeting with a brief description of the Landowner Election process. The weekly Friday Flash issued by the Master Association provides District residents with pertinent information about upcoming community events. A similar email about the Landowner Election would be equally pertinent and would be a far better way of providing notice than a newspaper publication.
As to the 2 legal opinion letters, the one from the attorney representing the Minto developer concluded that the Latitude property would derive no special benefit from the District and consequently this Board would not have the legal

authority to impose O&M Assessments to the Latitude property. That opinion is troubling and I believe flawed for 3 reasons.
It is neither an unbiased nor independent legal opinion upon which this Board should rely. It was commissioned and paid for by the Minto developer that has a vested economic interest in having the Latitude property exempt from paying District O&M Assessments. Is anyone surprised that the Minto legal opinion supports the Minto’s objective.

The Minto opinion cherry picks only a portion of Florida law that sets forth the legal standards on what constitutes a special benefit to a property. In contrast, the legal opinion letter from the Board’s attorney, Ms. Wilson, provides a clear and more extensive discussion of the law and the holdings from several Florida court cases that have examined this issue. Her opinion accurately spells out that a special benefit would exist if the property were affected in any of the following ways:

Increased value or market value of the property
Increased marketability of the property
Enhanced use and enjoyment of the property

As a real estate attorney myself and a former realtor, I believe Latitude clearly and convincingly receives a special benefit from the District under all 3 of those factors. While Latitudes will provide some amenities within its neighborhood, it will not have the myriad of services and facilities that the District provides from which the Latitude property will undoubtedly benefit; namely its parks, restaurants, grocery store, bank, church, gas station, fire and police station and other retail establishments. There is no doubt that these District amenities enhance the value and marketability of the Latitude property and increase the use and enjoyment of the Latitude property. Every SRA within the Collier County Rural Lands Stewardship Area has found that the communities within the various SRAs receive special benefits from being within its SRA. Latitudes would be no different and

Mintos is undoubtedly building the Latitudes project because of the special benefits it will receive by being within the Ave Maria Stewardship District. I recognize that I don’t represent this Board as its attorney and my legal analysis does not hold the same weight as Ms. Wilson. So, while I commend Ms. Wilson’s analysis on the law, I hope this Board will ask Ms. Wilson to expand upon her legal opinion to provide a conclusion (as the Minto legal opinion does) as to whether or not the Latitude property would receive a special benefit based on the factors she outlines in her opinion. An affirmative conclusion would allow the District to be on sound legal ground in imposing a special assessment on the Latitude property.

Instead of addressing the special benefit factors set forth under Florida law, the Minto legal opinion cites the following reasons why Latitudes should be exempted from O&M assessments:
"Latitudes will be served by a self-contained drainage system that does not connect to the District system and will own and maintain its own internal roads, lighting, landscaping and similar facilities." The opinion also cites Latitudes as being disconnected from the District due to its location across Camp Keais Road.

While that all may be true, it is equally true for the Del Webb neighborhood, whose location is as much disconnected from the District as is Latitudes. Likewise, Del Webb owns and maintains its own internal roads, lighting, landscaping and similar facilities. While Del Webb may not own a self-contained drainage system, there is an Agreement between Del Webb and the District which shifts all responsibility and cost to Del Webb for the operation, maintenance, repair, and replacement of the Del Webb drainage system. Accordingly, the Del Webb drainage system functions in the same manner as the Latitudes self-contained drainage system. If the basis which Minto’s cites for its conclusion that it receives no special benefit is correct, Del Webb could make the same assertion and seek to be exempted from O&M assessments. Other District neighborhoods could make similar exemption requests. I don’t believe the Board should be buying what Minto is selling and heading down this slippery slope.

MEMORANDUM

Date:	July 7, 2026
Project:	Arthrex Commerce Park Phase 3
Subject:	Bid Results and Recommendation of Award of Contract
From:	Edward F. Tryka III, PE, District Engineer
To:	Allyson Holland, PE, District Manager

All pre-qualified contractors were contacted with an invitation to bid. Bids for the project were due on June 19, 2026. The bid was split into four categories - Earthwork & Paving, Drainage & Utilities, Conduit & Lighting, and Landscaping. Contractors were allowed to submit a bid for a single category, multiple categories, or the entire project.

The following ten (10) companies submitted a bid:

American Infrastructure Services, Inc.	Conduit & Lighting Capling Leveling, Inc.	Earthwork & Paving
DN Higgins, Inc.	Drainage & Utilities
Earth Tech Enterprises, Inc.	Earthwork & Paving
Haskins, Inc.	Earthwork & Paving and Drainage & Utilities
Irrigation Innovators, LLC	Landscaping
Jensen Underground Utilities	Drainage & Utilities
Land Care	Landscaping
Mitchell & Stark Construction Co.	 Earthwork & Paving and Drainage & Utilities O'Donnell Landscapes, Inc.	Landscaping

The bids were analyzed to determine if the lowest price would be for the individual components or if there was a better price with them combined. For this analysis, if a contractor bid multiple components, the Miscellaneous category was split on a percentage basis across each component to provide a more equal comparison. Also, bids were adjusted to a total of 51,000 CY of import fill on Phase 3A based on Bid Addendum #2. The combined components of both Earthwork & Paving and Drainage & Utilities results were as follows:

Mitchell & Stark Construction Co.	$ 8,859,181.43
Haskins, Inc.	$ 9,222,334.16

The individual Earthwork & Paving results were as follows:

Earth Tech Enterprises, Inc.	$ 3,761,806.45	
Capling Leveling, Inc.	$ 4,119,431.53	
Mitchell & Stark Construction Co.	$ 4,712,185.02	
Haskins, Inc.	$ 5,522,683.03	

The individual Drainage & Utilities results were as follows:

Haskins, Inc.	$ 3,699,651.13	
Mitchell & Stark Construction Co.	$ 4,146,996.41	
Jensen Underground Utilities	$ 4,328,964.20	
DN Higgins, Inc.	$ 5,543,829.00	

Comparing the low bids of the individual components vs. the combined components yielded the following results:
Earth Tech Enterprises, Inc. + Haskins, Inc.	 $ 7,461,457.58 Mitchell and Stark Construction Co. (Both)	$ 8,859,181.43
Using the low bid from two contractors as opposed to the low bid from a single contractor will result in overall cost savings of $1,397,723.85.
For the Conduit & Lighting component of the project a single bid was received from American Infrastructure Services, Inc. for $750,238.00

For the Landscaping portion, three bids were received, but only one bid was deemed responsive from O'Donnell Landscapes, Inc. for $411,441.86. This was lower than the two non-responsive bids.

The bids were checked for mathematical errors, and only one was found on the Earth Tech Enterprises, Inc. bid, which was adjusted and did not affect their status as the low bidder for the Earthwork & Paving portion of the project.

It is our recommendation to the Board to award the bid to the lowest bidder in each of the four individual categories - Earthwork & Paving, Drainage & Utilities, Conduit & Lighting, and Landscaping. Based upon our review of the bids received it is our recommendation to the Board that it finds the following contractors the lowest responsive bid submitted by a responsive bidder:

Earthwork & Paving	Earth Tech Enterprises, Inc. Drainage & Utilities	Haskins, Inc.
Conduit & Lighting	American Infrastructure Services, Inc. Landscaping	 O'Donnell Landscapes, Inc.

In accordance with District Rule of Procedure 3.5, the lowest responsive bid submitted by a responsive and responsible bidder in response to an Invitation to Bid shall be accepted.
We are not aware of any outstanding issues or problems with either Earth Tech Enterprises, Inc., Haskins, Inc., American Infrastructure Services, Inc., or O'Donnell Landscapes, Inc. that would prevent us from recommending their selection as the lowest responsive bids submitted by responsive and responsible bidders.

LJA Engineering, Inc. looks forward to working successfully with the selected bidders on this project.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the recitals, agreements, and mutual covenants contained herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged by the Parties, the Parties agree as follows:

AGREEMENT

INCORPORATION OF RECITALS. The recitals stated above are true and correct and by this reference are incorporated into and form a material part of this Agreement.

ITEMS OF WORK. The Contractor’s proposal describes the scope of the work (the “Total Work”), as included in the Construction Contract. Exhibit A identifies those items that are to be the responsibility of AMUC to fund (the “AMUC Items of Work”). The District and AMUC shall each own, operate and maintain their respective Items of Work.

COST ALLOCATIONS.
Cost Allocation. AMUC shall pay all of the costs of the AMUC Items of Work as identified on Exhibit A. Payment shall be made in accordance with Sections 3 and 4 herein.
Cost Allocation for Services. Payment shall be made in accordance with Section 4 below. Upon Final Completion of the Total Work, the Engineer shall review the portion of construction phase services attributable to the AMUC Items of Work and notify AMUC of any additional amounts to be paid. Any dispute of the Engineer's determination shall be resolved in accordance with Section 3.3, below. Payment shall be made in accordance with Sections 4 and 5 herein.

Dispute of Engineer's Determination. Should the District or AMUC dispute the Engineer's determination of costs attributable to any Party either in accordance with Section 3.1, Section 3.2 or Section 5.4, notice of such dispute and the grounds therefor shall be given from one party to the other within five (5) days, excluding Saturdays, Sundays and federal holidays, of receipt of the Engineer's determination of costs. Thereafter, within seventy two (72) hours, excluding Saturdays, Sundays and federal holidays, after notice of such dispute is given, the Engineer shall request the Florida Board of Engineers select a qualified independent third party engineer to review the Work and the engineer's determination of costs. The independent third

party engineer may, upon the written consent of the District and AMUC, secure its own estimates of costs. The Parties agree to and shall be bound by the determination of costs attributable to the Parties as determined by the independent third party engineer. In such event, the fees and costs of the independent third party engineer shall be equally divided between the Parties hereto. Nothing contained in this Section 3.3 shall give AMUC the right to dispute the cost of the AMUC Items of Work to the extent such costs are determined in accordance with the Construction Contract.

To ensure compliance with Section 218.735, Florida Statutes, the Parties shall follow the procedures described in Section 4, below, with respect to any costs related to a dispute to be resolved pursuant to this Section 3.3. However, should the independent third party engineer determine that all or a portion of the disputed costs were incorrectly allocated, the party determined by the independent third party engineer to have underpaid its share of the costs shall reimburse the other party the amount underpaid.

PAYMENT OF COSTS. Subject to the provisions of Section 5 for any and all invoices related solely to Final Payment, as defined herein, and completion of the Project, the Parties shall pay for the Work in accordance with the following schedule: the Project Manager and Engineer will review invoices and determine which portion is District Items of Work and which portion is AMUC Items of Work; the District will submit a requisition for the District Items of Work and AMUC will pay the vendor directly for AMUC Items of Work. Within three (3) days of receipt of the fully executed requisition, the District Manager or his designee shall transmit the fully executed requisition to the District Trustee for payment. Concurrently with the transmission of the requisition to the District Trustee.
ACCEPTANCE OF WORK

Acceptance of Work. Before the District makes Final Payment as defined below, the District shall provide AMUC with a certificate from the Engineer that, to the best of his knowledge, the AMUC Items of Work have been performed in substantial compliance with the Construction Contract and appropriate final lien waivers and releases have been obtained from all contractors, sub-contractors, materialmen or suppliers and laborers in connections with the Project. Within fifteen (15) calendar days after receipt of said certificate, AMUC shall inspect the Project and provide written notice to the District that the AMUC Items of Work, to the best of AMUC’s knowledge, are or are not in substantial compliance with the Construction Contract. Failure by AMUC to provide such written notice within said timeframe shall cause the District Engineer to transmit a written demand to AMUC that such notice be provided. Should AMUC fail to respond to the District Engineer’s written request within five (5) calendar days of receipt of such request, AMUC is deemed to have determined that the AMUC Items of Work are in substantial compliance with the Construction Contract.

Substantial Compliance. If AMUC’s notice is that the AMUC Items of Work are in substantial compliance (or if AMUC fails to provide notice as provided in subsection 5.1), then AMUC shall be deemed to have accepted the AMUC Items of Work except as to defects not then readily discoverable. AMUC shall then remit its payment to the District within five (5) business days of the notice of substantial compliance. Immediately upon receipt of funds from AMUC, the District shall pay the Contractor. Subsequent to AMUC’s giving such notice of such substantial compliance and the making of Final Payment by the District, AMUC agrees that it shall have no claim against the District with respect to any AMUC Items of Work performed by the Contractor, the only obligation of the District being to enforce the terms of the Construction Contract.

Non-Compliance. In the event AMUC’s notice is that AMUC Items of Work are not in substantial compliance with the Construction Contract, then within ten (10) days of the District's receipt of such notice (provided such notice reasonably identifies the non-complying AMUC Items of Work), the District shall proceed promptly to enforce the terms of the Construction Contract as it applies to completion and correction of the AMUC Items of Work. In the event the District disputes AMUC’s notice of non-compliance, notice of such dispute shall be provided to AMUC by the District within five (5) business days of the District's receipt of such notice of non-compliance. In such event, within five (5) business days, the Engineer shall request the Florida Board of Engineers select a qualified independent third party engineer to review the AMUC Items of Work subject to AMUC’s notice of non-compliance. The Parties agree to and shall be bound by the determination of substantial compliance or non-compliance as determined by the independent third party engineer. The fees and costs of the independent third party engineer shall be equally divided between the requesting Party and the District.
Enforcement Costs. To the extent such costs are not reimbursed by the Contractor, AMUC shall reimburse the District for any costs (as determined by the Engineer) incurred by the District arising out of the District's efforts to enforce the terms of the Construction Contract as it applies to the AMUC Items of Work, provided that the defective AMUC Items of Work that is the subject of enforcement is not caused in whole or in part or contributed to by the actions of the District or its Engineer. Any dispute as to costs to be reimbursed by AMUC pursuant to this subsection 5.4 shall be resolved in accordance with Section 3.3, above.

5.5.  Final Payment. “Final Payment” shall be defined as the final payment made to the Contractor by the District after the Contractor has satisfactorily completed all corrections identified in the Final Inspection, as provided in the Construction Contract.

CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT AND PLANS. The District shall be responsible for ensuring that the improvements to be constructed pursuant to the Construction Contract are constructed in substantial compliance with the plans and specifications set out in the Construction Contract and in a timely manner.

Defective Work. The District shall not accept defective Work pursuant to the provisions of the Construction Contract with respect to the AMUC Items of Work without the written consent of AMUC.

Entitlement to Credits. In the event the AMUC gives written consent in accordance with Section 6.1, AMUC shall be entitled to receive the benefit of any credits with respect to the AMUC Items of Work as determined in accordance with the Construction Contract.

Record Drawings. Upon request, the District shall furnish AMUC, free of charge, one copy of available drawings, plans, specifications, addenda, change orders and other modifications marked currently to record all changes and selections made during construction (the “Record Drawings”). The Record Drawings shall be delivered to AMUC upon Final Completion of the Work.

INSURANCE AND WAIVER OF SUBROGATION.
Insurance. The District shall ensure that the policies of insurance required under the Construction Contract include the interest of AMUC, or its designee, as additional or named insured. To the extent that there is any additional cost associated with listing AMUC as an additional or named insured under the policies of insurance required to be purchased and maintained by the Contractor in accordance with the Construction Contract, AMUC will pay those additional costs. AMUC will make such payment within fifteen (15) days of receiving notice of such additional costs from the District. The District shall ensure that such insurance remains in full force and effect during construction of the Project and thereafter as provided in said policies. The intent is that AMUC, or its designee, be provided the same protections in said policies as that accorded to the District. Adjustment and settlement of any loss with the insurers shall be conducted by the District, as trustee, and the District shall account to AMUC for the proceeds of such insurance that is applicable to the AMUC Items of Work.
7.2.  Waiver of Subrogation. The District and AMUC waive all rights against each other and any of their agents and employees, each of the other, for all losses and damages caused by any of the perils covered by the policies of insurance obtained pursuant to the Construction Contract, except such rights as they have to proceeds of such insurance held by either the District or the Contractor pursuant to the Construction Contract.

LICENSE. AMUC hereby grants the District and the District's agents a temporary license to enter property owned by AMUC, if any, to construct, inspect and administer the improvements required under the Construction Contract. The District's license to enter AMUC’s property, as provided herein, shall expire upon Final Completion of the Work or upon the making of Final Payment to the Contractor, whichever last occurs.

OBLIGATIONS OF AMUC. It is the intent of the Parties that AMUC’s participation in the cost of the Project is not as Owner (as such term is defined in the Construction Contract) or as a party to the Construction Contract and that AMUC shall incur no liability or obligation to third parties, including the Contractor, by entering into this Agreement. AMUC hereby contractually obligate itself to provide any and all notices which may be required of the District pursuant to any applicable permits, obtained by AMUC for the Project, from a governmental entity, whether local, state or federal. The District does hereby agree to provide written notice to AMUC of such notices as the necessity for the notices arises. AMUC agrees to defend and hold harmless the District and its officers and agents from and against all liability, claims, actions, suits or demands by any person, corporation or other entity arising out administration of the AMUC Items of Work portion of the Construction Contract or as are otherwise related to the AMUC Items of Work. At the completion of the Work, AMUC shall own, operate and maintain AMUC Items of Work.

ENGINEER'S DUTIES. The District shall be responsible to ensure that the Engineer performs the duties placed upon it by the terms of this Agreement.
RECOVERY OF COSTS AND FEES. In the event either party is required to enforce this Agreement by court proceedings or otherwise, then the predominantly prevailing party shall be entitled to recover from the other party all fees and costs incurred, including reasonable attorneys' fees and costs.
DEFAULTS. Failure by either party to perform each and every one of its obligations hereunder shall be a default, entitling either party to pursue whatever remedies are available to it under Florida law. Each of the Parties hereto shall give the other party written notice of any defaults hereunder and shall allow the defaulting party not less than five (5) days from the date of receipt of such notice to cure monetary defaults and fifteen (15) days to cure other defaults.

ENTIRE AGREEMENT.

Compensation shall be as provided in the Proposal. Payment shall be made, and invoices shall be rendered in accordance with Florida’s Prompt Payment Act, sections 218.70 through 218.80, Florida Statutes. Any increases in price must be approved in writing by the District.
The Contractor or any subcontractor performing the work described in this Agreement shall maintain throughout the term of this Agreement the following insurance:

The District, its staff, consultants, agents, and supervisors shall be named as additional insureds (for all coverages except workers’ compensation coverage). The Contractor shall furnish the District with the Certificate of Insurance evidencing compliance with this requirement. No certificate shall be acceptable to the District unless it provides that any change or termination within the policy periods of the insurance coverage, as certified, shall not be effective within thirty (30) days of prior written notice to the District. Insurance coverage shall be from a reputable insurance carrier, licensed to conduct business in the State of Florida.

To the extent that the Contractor provides any materials or workmanship under this Agreement to the District, the Contractor warrants to the District that the materials that are furnished under this Agreement shall be new, and that the workmanship and materials shall be of good quality, and free from faults and defects. If any such workmanship or materials are found to be defective, deficient, or not in accordance with the Agreement, and without intending to limit any other remedies, the Contractor shall correct, remove, and replace such workmanship or materials promptly at the Contractor’s expense after receipt of a written notice from the District. To the extent that manufacturers’ warranties are available, such manufacturers’ warranties shall extend for the duration of their respective terms, and the Contractor hereby assigns all manufacturers’ warranties, if any, to the District, and shall provide evidence of the same. None of the warranties set forth herein shall cover abuse or abnormal damage occurring after completion of the services and not as a result of the acts or omissions of Contractor (or manufacturers, as applicable). In addition to all manufacturers’ warranties for materials purchased for purposes of this Agreement, which Contractor shall assign to the District, the Services, all labor, and materials provided by the Contractor pursuant to this Agreement shall be warranted for workmanship for a period of ninety (90) days after final completion and acceptance by the District.

Contractor shall use reasonable care in performing the services and shall be responsible for any harm of any kind to persons or property resulting from Contractor’s actions or inactions. Contractor shall defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the District and the District’s officers, staff, representatives, and agents, from any and all liabilities, damages, claims, losses, costs, or harm of any kind, including, but not limited to, reasonable attorney’s fees, paralegal fees and expert witness fees and costs, to the extent caused, wholly or in part, by any acts or omissions of the Contractor and persons employed or utilized by the Contractor in the performance of the Agreement.

It is understood and agreed that at all times the relationship of Contractor and its employees, agents, successors, assigns or anyone directly or indirectly employed by Contractor to the District is the relationship of an independent contractor and not that of an employee, agent, joint-venturer, or partner of the District.

The Contractor shall not have any authority to assume or create any obligation, express or implied, on behalf of the District and the Contractor shall have no authority to represent the District as an agent, employee, or in any other capacity.

In performing its obligations under the Agreement, Contractor and each of its employees, agents, subcontractors, or anyone directly or indirectly employed by Contractor shall comply with, and all services rendered shall comply with, all applicable laws, ordinances, rules, regulations, and orders of any public or governmental authority having appropriate jurisdiction. Contractor shall initiate, maintain, and supervise all safety precautions and programs in connection with its obligations herein. Contractor shall take all reasonable precautions for the safety of and shall provide all reasonable protection to prevent damage, injury, or loss to all of its employees, agents and subcontractors performing its obligations herein and other persons who may be affected, and any material, equipment, and other property.

Contractor agrees that nothing in the Agreement shall be deemed as a waiver of the District’s sovereign immunity or the District’s limits of liability as set forth in Section 768.28, Florida Statutes or other law, and nothing in this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of any third party for the purpose of allowing any claim which would otherwise be barred under such limitations of liability or by operation of law.

THE DISTRICT MAY TERMINATE THIS AGREEMENT IMMEDIATELY FOR CAUSE IF THERE IS A GOOD FAITH BELIEF THAT THE CONTRACTOR HAS KNOWINGLY VIOLATED SECTION 448.091, FLORIDA STATUTES.

If the Contractor anticipates entering into agreements with a subcontractor for the Work, Contractor will not enter into the subcontractor agreement without first receiving an affidavit from the subcontractor regarding compliance with Section 448.095, Florida Statutes, and stating that the subcontractor does not employ, contract with, or subcontract with an unauthorized alien. Contractor shall maintain a copy of such affidavit for the duration of the agreement and provide a copy to the District upon request.
In the event that the District has a good faith belief that a subcontractor has knowingly violated Section 448.095, Florida Statutes, but the Contractor has otherwise complied with its obligations hereunder, the District shall promptly notify the Contractor. The Contractor agrees to immediately terminate the agreement with the subcontractor upon notice from the District. Further, absent such notification from the District, the Contractor or any subcontractor who has a good faith belief that a person or entity with which it is contracting has knowingly violated s. 448.09(1), Florida Statutes, shall promptly terminate its agreement with such person or entity.

The Contractor agrees to comply with Section 20.055(5), Florida Statutes, to cooperate with the inspector general in any investigation, audit, inspection, review or hearing pursuant such section and to incorporate in all subcontracts the obligation to comply with Section 20.055(5), Florida Statutes.
By entering into this Agreement, the Contractor represents that no public employer has terminated a contract with the Contractor under Section 448.095(2)(c), Florida Statutes, within the year immediately preceding the date of this Agreement.

To the extent any of the provisions of this Addendum are in conflict with the provisions of the Proposal, this Addendum controls.

This Addendum and the Agreement shall be deemed effective as of the date of the full execution of this Addendum.

MEMORANDUM

To:	Board of Supervisors
From: Allyson Holland, P.E., District Manager
Date: June 30, 2026
Board Meeting Date:	July 7, 2026

SUBJECT
Change Orders to Earth Tech Enterprises, Inc. and O’Donnell Landscapes, Inc. in conjunction with the Anthem Parkway Phase 5A project.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends the Board of Supervisors approve Change Orders to Earth Tech Enterprises, Inc. and O’Donnell Landscapes, Inc. in conjunction with the Anthem Parkway Phase 5A project.
GENERAL INFORMATION
In November 2023, the Ave Maria Stewardship Community District (District) contracted with Earth Tech Enterprises, Inc. (Earth Tech) for construction services in conjunction with the Anthem Parkway Phase 5A earthwork, utility, roadway project for an original contract price of
$7,360,163.74. Nine (9) change orders were previously approved by the Board of Supervisors, bringing the current contract price to $11,541,092.45.
Change order #10 for Anthem Parkway Phase 5A includes the sidewalk addition to the south side of Anthem Parkway, to facilitate a pedestrian connection between the Water Park and the crosswalk at the Ave Maria Elementary School. The Board previously approved a Sidewalk Easement for the location of the sidewalk.

The total amount of Change Order #10 is $72,332.00, which will bring the total contract price to
$11,613,424.45. All pricing is consistent with the current bid.

In April 2024, the District contracted O’Donnell Landscapes, Inc. (O’Donnell) for landscape and irrigation services in conjunction with the Anthem Parkway Phase 5A project for an original contract price of $868,655.85. The Board of Supervisors subsequently approved four (4) additional change orders, bringing the current contract amount to $1,062,945.79.

Change order #5 is a deduct in the amount of $25,734.24 for the cost of the Bahia sod that was not required to be installed. The new total contract price for O’Donnell, including the deductive Change Order #5 is calculated as follows:

$1,062,945.79 minus $25,734.24 = $1,037,211.55.

Comcast Access Agreement to Install Fiber in District Right-of-Way

STAFF RECOMMENDATION

Staff recommends approval of the Comcast Access Agreement to install Fiber in the District right-of-way.

GENERAL INFORMATION
Comcast contacted District staff in June regarding the installation of fiber optic cable from an existing vault on Colby St to a tie-point vault on Torino Ave to provide high speed fiber for Publix supermarket. The District Manager reviewed the location of the proposed fiber and confirmed that Comcast is requesting to install the fiber within the District right-of-way (ROW) across and along Colby St, along Pope John Paul II Blvd, and along Torino Ave (reference map on next page, provided by Comcast). The District Manager sent Comcast the District’s Access Agreement, pursuant to Resolution 2024-03, for review and execution prior to authorizing Comcast to install fiber in the District’s ROW. Comcast informed the District Manager that they will not review or execute the District’s Access Agreement. In an effort to keep the project moving, District legal counsel agreed to review Comcast’s Access Agreement. District’s legal counsel provided suggested edits to the Access Agreement, and Comcast’s legal counsel accepted all changes. The agreed upon version of Comcast’s Access Agreement is provided herein for the Board’s consideration.

The agreement ensures that Comcast shall comply with all applicable laws. Comcast shall keep the Facilities in good order and repair and shall promptly repair all damage to the Property caused by Comcast, other than ordinary wear and tear. The Facilities shall belong to Comcast, shall be located at the Property at sole risk of Comcast, and Owner shall not be liable for damage thereto or theft, misappropriation or loss thereof, except to the extent of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Owner, its employees or contractors. Comcast shall be responsible for, and shall also indemnify, hold harmless and defend Owner against, the satisfaction or payment of any liens for any provider of work, labor, material or services claiming by, through or under Comcast.

The license granted hereby may not be revoked during the Term, except as provided in Section 8.
Indemnification. Comcast shall indemnify, hold harmless and defend Owner, its employees, contractors, invitees, officers, directors, affiliates or subsidiaries, from and against any and all claims, actions, damages, liabilities and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and other professional fees, in connection with any property damage or personal injury, arising from or out of the installation, operation, maintenance, or removal by Comcast of the Facilities, except to the extent that any such claims, actions, damages, liabilities, expenses are caused by the Owner, its employees, contractors, invitees, officers, directors, affiliates or subsidiaries.

 Damages. Neither party shall be liable to the other party for any lost profits, special, incidental, punitive, exemplary or consequential damages.

Update District’s Golf Cart Ordinance

STAFF RECOMMENDATION

Staff recommends the Board of Supervisor’s Authorize Staff to Update the District’s Golf Cart Ordinance.

GENERAL INFORMATION
The last amendment to the District’s Golf Cart Ordinance was approved by Collier County in May of 2016. The District has identified additional roadways where a multi-use path suitable for safe operation of golf carts has been (i.e. Peek Way) or may be constructed for golf cart usage adjacent to the roadway. The map attached to this memo identifies the roads with pathways currently designated for golf cart usage in green, and the roads that potentially would be added to the Ordinance to allow golf cart usage on acceptable pathways, rather than driving on the roadway, in red. District staff requests the Board’s authorization to update the District’s Golf Cart Ordinance. This is a process that will take time and require approval from the Collier County Board of County Commissioners. If authorized by the Board, staff will determine the extent of the updates necessary, determine costs related to the update, create a timeline with milestones, and provide updates to the Board.

In addition to the requirements of Florida Statute Section 316.212, which are applicable to the operation of golf carts on the aforementioned designated roads, streets and sidewalks, the following restrictions shall also apply:
All persons operating golf carts subject to this Ordinance must be a minimum of fifteen (I 5) years of age, and hold a valid driver's license or a restricted license issued within the United States (or equivalent foreign driver's license). All persons operating golf carts pursuant to a restricted license (hereinafter referred to as an "unlicensed driver"), must be in possession of a valid restricted license at all times while operating a golf cart on the designated public roads.
The number of occupants in any golf cart operated by an unlicensed driver on the designated streets and roads shall be restricted to the number of seats on the golf cart. No occupants of a golf cart operated by an unlicensed driver shall stand at any time while the golf cart is in motion.
Prior to operation of golf carts under this Ordinance, all golf carts may be registered with the Ave Maria Stewardship Community District (hereinafter referred to as the "District"). With help and cooperation of Collier County Sheriff's Office, the District shall develop and distribute appropriate literature advising safe operation of the golf carts, and organize and conduct voluntary periodic inspections.
All golf carts operated under this Ordinance shall be restricted to a maximum attainable speed of twenty (20) miles per hour. All golf carts operating on sidewalks shall be restricted to a maximum speed of fifteen (15) miles per hour.

Before golf carts may be operated by unlicensed drivers under this section, the owners thereof must purchase and maintain liability insurance insuring against personal injury and damage to property of any nature relative to the operation of golf carts on the designated roadways and sidewalks.
Violations of this section shall constitute a non-criminal infraction enforceable pursuant to the provisions of Florida Statutes, Section 316.212(9).
