District Manager Action Items

DM 1 - Status Report/Updates

Mr. Pickle advised that he had received a phone call from a potential buyer for the property on California. He indicated they were interested in 3+ acres and would be responsible for all zoning changes, permit applications and site plan and the corresponding fees involved, whereas the other 2 potential buyers wanted to purchase the property "site ready."

The Board asked Mr. Pickle to extend an invitation to the newest potential buyer to attend next month's meeting to make a formal presentation.

Mr. Pickle advised of bringing an amendment to the Infrastructure Solution Services' (ISS) contract to the March meeting regarding stormwater management. Mr. Pickle indicated ISS would be taking over when Mr. Lawson retires in the next 5 to 6 months. Mr. Pickle noted ISS would have a representative for the District's monthly meetings.   Mr. Pickle noted that the plan was to get the person from ISS on board now so that they can learn from Mr. Lawson in the coming months. It was noted that an RFQ was not required since the District has a current contract with ISS.

Mr. Pickle indicated that although there was no uptick in Covid cases, he asked the Board if they would consider extending the FFCRA (Families First Coronavirus Response Act) policy for an additional month.

Discussion ensued regarding the potential to re-open the District's offices to the public.

Mr. Pickle advised that he had issued irrigation restrictions due to the drought conditions.

That concluded Mr. Pickle's updates.
