THIRD ORDER OF BUSINESS                       Acceptance of Greenbriar Plat

            Ms. Patton stated the Greenbriar Plat is a replat of a portion of the Heron Bay Northeast plat, which was brought to you a year ago.  Heron Bay Northeast consists of 313 single-family units and a mixture of product types.  Since that time, we found some opportunity based on another parcel we had.  A sales center was to be constructed in the northern part of the community but after talking it over with the City, we realized having an additional sales center is not necessary. Instead, we decided to add seven lots and some wetland areas to the site.  The District is an owner within this plat because part of the Heron Bay Northeast plat conveyed the lake to the District.

            Mr. Mendolia asked when wlll this section be developed?

            Ms. Patton responded upon getting approval from the City, County and District, we will probably be able to start land development by the end of the year because some lots will need to be platted through Broward County.

            Mr. Lyles stated I reviewed the plat documents in advance of this meeting and talked to Ms. Patton about this.  We incorporated some minor comments to the language of the plat, and we do not have any objections.

            Ms. Early stated Mr. Moore and I have some concerns about the easements.

            Mr. Patton stated the City of Parkland requires a 12’ utility easement, and Mr. Moore has asked for the District to be included in that language.  This is not a problem.

            Mr. Moore stated the plats do not show the 12’ easement in front of the lots.

            Ms. Patton stated we will be happy to accommodate your request to add the easement to the plat.

 

On MOTION by Mr. Miner seconded by Mr. Mendolia with all in favor the Greenbriar Plat was accepted.

 

FOURTH ORDER OF BUSINESS                    Consideration of Work Authorization 122 Heron Bay North Force Main & Lift Station TPC #9 and Funding Agreement for Same

            Ms. Early stated the Heron Bay North plat was approved at the last meeting.  We are doing the design for the force main and lift station to service those areas, which will require a funding agreement with WCI.

            Mr. Mendolia asked does WCI agree?

            Ms. Early responded yes.

            Mr. Mendolia asked are the hourly rates the same as before?

            Ms. Early responded yes.
