District Attorney
DA 1 - Status Report/Updates

Mr. Harrell handed out information regarding the City's discussion regarding the Community Development District Stormwater Fee Rebate 2022 Update. Mr. Harrell explained how the stornwater fees work and how the money is distributed. Mr. Harrell indicated that the City was concerned the districts do not spend the money on stormwater matters, but his experience is that districts spend more than what is given for stormwater. He suggested possibly engaging a consultant to determine how much money is actually spent on stormwater because the City is thinking of reducing the percentage returned to the District from 75% to 25%.

Discussion ensued regarding joining other districts in engaging a consultant because of the similar interests and cost savings.

There was a Board consensus to join other districts to engage a consultant.

District Engineer
DE 1 - Status Report/Updates

Mr. Hayden was not aware of any updates from Mr. Zanganeh.

District Manager Action Items

DM 1 - Consider Agreement with Odyssey Manufacturing Company

Mr. Miller presented the item, indicating that Odyssey Manufacturing Company provides sodium hypochlorite for the Water & Wastewater plants, which is vital in order to keep the treatment plants in compliance with State guidelines. He noted that Odyssey had been providing these services since 2010 and have offered to the District to piggy-back the City of Lake Wales, Bid No. 21-488. The contract would be for a period of twelve (12) months with twelve (12) month renewals thereafter. The cost to deliver the liquid sodium hypochlorite is $1.08 per gallon. Mr. Miller indicated that the current price was $0.762 per gallon, but would be increased by $0.318 per gallon.

A question arose as to how much sodium hypochlorite the District uses over the period of one year to which Mr. Miller indicated approximately 50,000 gallons per year.

There was no further discussion regarding this item.

OM 2 - Other Items

Tiffany Jackson of the St. Lucie West Commercial Association then introduced herself and made a presentation to the Board regarding the request for the District to take over right-of-ways along NW Bethany Drive.

Ms. Jackson went over the history of the road and advised of the City's requirements to take it over. She also presented cost estimates from 2018.

A lengthy discussion ensued regarding the legalities and how to accomplish this turnover. Mr. Hayden indicated he would coordinate a meeting of all those entities who would be involved in this undertaking and would report back to the Board at a future meeting.
