The Colonial Country Club Community Development District meeting was called to order and the District Manager called the roll. All Board members were present for today’s meeting. Also in attendance was Christopher Dudak, Assistant to the District Manager, and participating by web conference was Nancy Dudak, PDM.

The Agenda was reviewed.

There being none, the next Order of Business followed.

A. Draft Meeting Minutes from January 25, 2021

The amended Draft Meeting Minutes from January 25, 2021 that were sent out as handouts were reviewed.

A. Aerator Installation Lake 28

The District Manager explained that they were going to upgrade the power from 115 to 240 volts on the aerator on Lake 28, but the Field Manager said that the extra cost for changing the compressors from 115 volt to 240 volt was not worth the extra expense. Solitude concurred and agreed to change the 240-volt compressors to 115-volt at no charge to the CDD. They will be changed out as soon as the order arrives.

The two new proposals from the original Agenda were no longer deemed necessary.

A. fStop & Florida Wildlife Sharing the Landscape Project

The District Manager explained that the fStop & Florida Wildlife Sharing the Landscape Project would like to place wildlife cameras in the Preserve so they can catalog wildlife photos and use them as an educational tool, at no charge to the CDD. Nancy Dudak said that they are working in the State, and are focused on the Corkscrew corridor. She also said that the waiver they would have to sign would release them from any responsibility, plus they would share the photos with the CDD. The District Manager said that the camera would be in the Preserve area, but that residents can request them in their back yards. Ultimately, they want a partnership to see how wildlife exists near a human habitat to use for educational purposes. They would submit a placement plan before they begin.

B. Algae Control Options

The Board discussed a proposal from Sunstate Fence for $6,529.18 to replace 406′ of chain-link fence and posts. They agreed that early April would be a good time for the work to be done and that PDM will send a letter to the General Manager for him to contact the affected residents. The District Manager shared information on a sonic algae control device that was requested. An LG Sonic Brochure was presented that states it is for residential lakes and ponds. The Board would like more information and prices for the next meeting.

C. Simplified Benchmark Lakes Analysis Results

A pass/fail type test result summary was presented reflecting that all lake results are in a “good” category, with the nitrogen levels at the border between good and fair, as the trend has been. The Board would like to have the results of the analysis attached in the future.

A. Financial Statements for January 2021
