OLD BUSINESS

There were no Old Business items to come before the Board.

NEW BUSINESS
Accept Engineering Snpplemental Report with Proposal Considerations

Mr. Tryka presented a supplemental report outlining the existing conditions and the relationships between the residential lots and lakes. Six remediation options for lake banks were discussed. The Yard Drains Connections to the lake would solve the problem at the source and limit work to those specific areas. The drawback is the difficulty working outside the District right-of-way and easements. Yard Drains Connections Optional would be similar to the above and provide an optional connection for the homeowner. The disadvantages would be relying on the homeowner to properly connect, as well as placement for the yard drains. The grade and the slope conditions within the 20ft easement are not available in all locations. The addition of Swales was considered, the design worked well on lake B-5-2. There does not appear to be sufficient flat area within the 20-ft lake maintenance easement in the majority of lakes to build swales. Rip-Rap is a collection of large rock used to stabilize slopes. South Florida Water Management District does not consider rip-rap and natural material and limits the use to 40% coverage per lake. Geo-Web System is a honeycomb like network that stabilizes the soil; the infill can be rocks and natural so_ils allowing grass and vegetation to grow. This is an expensive option. Littoral Plantings are a natural solution. As the plants grow the root systems help keep the soil in place. The challenges include special consideration for slopes at 4:1, installation can be difficult, until the plants mature the soil is still not contained. This is a high maintenance option as exotic species/weeds will cause overgrowth if not maintained.
A discussion ensued regarding the possibilities of using multiple options and costs. The limitations of being on private property and the HOA were discussed. Ms. Willson will draft an invite for the HOA to have representatives at the next District Workshop to discuss. The easement responsibilities for maintenance were discussed and Ms. Willson will report the covenants and restrictions at the next meeting.

District residents, David Boilce and Kathy Avalone both spoke to express their concerns about the lake banks. Mr. Boilce shared some pictures with the Board to illustrate the problem.
Supervisor Petrovsky left the meeting at 3:00 p.m.

A motion was made by Supervisor Ciriello, seconded by Supervisor Mr. O'Donohue and passed unanimously accepting the Engineering Supplemental Report, as presented.
