33 Ms. Blandon opened the floor to audience comments. 34
35 Mr. Kleinglass provided an update to the Board regarding the River Club renovation. He 36 advised there are struggles related to sound attenuation; he advised Noller has a sound attenuation 37
company that has provided a price that is quite expensive. Mr. Kleinglass advised other options and 38 pricing are being obtained based on calculations obtained for the needed sound attenuation. He 39 advised of a visit to Lakewood Ranch where this other company was used and the outcome was 40 favorable. Mr. Kleinglass advised this other vendor will be attending the Committee meeting being 41
held tomorrow. Mr. Orenstein asked if Noller is willing to work this other vendor. Mr. Kleinglass 42 advised he believes they will. Mr. Kleinglass advised two contracts may be required; one for the 43 renovation and a separate one for sound attenuation. Ms. Lentile inquired regarding the difference 44 between the two companies. Mr. Kleinglass advised the difference is $75,000.00 to $80,000.00. Mr. 45 Bracco inquired regarding the timing of the two separate contacts. Mr. Kleinglass advised the two 46 contracts may be phased. Mr. Jasper inquired regarding coordination of the two contracts. Mr. 47 Kleinglass advised the relationship with Noller is good though they are getting frustrated with the 48 Committee regarding pricing. He advised he believes Noller wants the community to be happy with 49

the outcome and his preference is to have Noller involved with the sound attenuation contractor. Mr. 50 Jasper suggested possibly offering Noller a small management fee to manage the contract with the 51 other sound attenuation company. Mr. Kleinglass advised that at this point, the design and renovation 52
is coming in under budget. Mr. Kissell provided positive input regarding Noller and the processes 53 related to the renovation. Mr. Lusty stated he had hoped to have a contract ready for this meeting; but 54 $70,000.00 to $80,000.00 is too much to ignore; he advised this additional company has a good 55 reputation with everyone he has spoken with, they have a nice product which is the same as the sound 56 attenuation product as Noller’s vendor. Mr. Cohen advised Noller provided a contract which he has 57 reviewed and provided comments to Noller. Mr. Orenstein advised Noller may not want to be held 58
responsible for the separate vendor and so for the sound attenuation Noller may require a hold 59 harmless agreement in order to manage to the outside vendor. Discussion ensued. Mr. Kissell clarified 60 that the company Noller has issue with is out of Miami and the Committee is currently dealing with 61
the Tampa branch; same company but different branch. Mr. Lusty inquired with the Board as to 62 whether they expect the Committee to see the project though to the end or would the Committee be 63 disbanded after execution of the contract. Mr. Kleinglass advised the Committee would like to see it 64
through. Mr. Orenstein asked Mr. Kissell if he thinks the Committee should stay in place throughout 65 the duration of the contract. Mr. Kissell confirmed. 66
67 A resident of 301 Cipriani thanked the Board for having Brightview review the oak tree 68 located in front of her property. She advised that the tree has roots that are heading toward her 69
foundation. She advised that Brightview has advised her that the tree could be removed; she advised 70 the City has advised that a permit can be issued to remove the two oak trees and be replaced with hard 71
wood trees. The resident asked that the trees be removed in order to protect her foundation. Mr. Jasper 72 inquired as to whether Brightview did the trimming of the trees on behalf of the CDD. The resident 73
advised she paid for the trimming; she provided information related to pick up of the limbs. Mr. Jasper 74 advised the Board will need time to review the request as historically the procedure has been to allow 75 the resident to trim the limbs and roots encroaching onto their property. Mr. Orenstein inquired with 76
Counsel regarding liability should the tree roots damage the foundation. Discussion ensued. Mr. Lusty 77 inquired regarding the length of the residents’ property. Mr. Jasper advised the standard is 130 feet. 78
Mr. Lusty advised the root barrier would be $2,000.00. Discussion ensued. Mr. Lusty advised it may 79 be more cost effective to install a barrier rather than removing the trees. He asked if the root barrier 80 would be acceptable to the homeowner. She confirmed and advised the root barrier is guaranteed for 81
ten years. Discussion ensued. Mr. Bracco advised he would like the Board to look into this request. 82 Mr. Cohen asked if the Board would like him to do any research regarding this matter. The Board 83 advised they would like a legal opinion in order to make an informed decision. Mr. Lusty asked that 84 Ms. Richard obtain a quote for the root barrier and a quote for removal and replacement. 85 86
A resident of 118 Savona Way inquired regarding the lack of plantings and landscaping at the 87 Costello entrance as well as broken tiles. She asked if there is a schedule for irrigation and landscape 88 improvements at this location. Ms. Lentile inquired with the remainder of the Board as to whether or 89 not they have seen the pictures. The resident provided the pictures for Board review. Mr. Jasper asked 90
that Ms. Richard address the tiles. Ms. Richard advised she will have John make repairs to the tiles, 91 the landscaping is being replaced, and the irrigation has been repaired but has broken again. Ms. 92 Richard advised she will have Brightview review the irrigation again. Mr. Jasper advised the CDD 93 cannot maintain the irrigation at private residences and he reviewed the wet check process. 94 95 A resident of 166 Portofino inquired regarding the entrance of her community being inspected 96 for aesthetics. She reviewed photos of landscaping throughout the community. Mr. Bracco addressed 97
the resident advising that a new landscaping company has been hired to replace the landscape vendor 98

Mr. Lusty advised that if FWC is called they will trap and destroy the alligators; 106 he suggested that residents leave the alligators alone. 107
108 Mr. Lusty addressed the Board and audience regarding the budget line item for annuals; he 109 advised that if the community is willing, the Board can reallocate some of the budget line item for 110
annuals to permanent landscaping. 111 112 The President of Tisiano I thanked Mr. Lusty for meeting with him to discuss the feral pigs. 113
He advised the Tisiano I Board voted to remove the pigs and they would like the District to assist with 114 the efforts. Mr. Lusty advised a contract has been received to put out traps on CDD property. Mr. 115
Jasper confirmed the contract has been executed. 116 117 THIRD ORDER OF BUSINESS District Engineer Staff Report 118
119 Mr. Schappacher advised the asphalt restoration technology proposal is forthcoming. He 120

of those lakes. Mr. Schappacher advised that common area 6 in phase 5 is where WCI/Lennar is 123 planning to plant trees; this area has not been taken over by the CDD and he has been working 124 with Lennar on the plantings and he is trying to get the trees planted close to the preserve in order 125
to reduce maintenance activities by the CDD. Mr. Schappacher advised that regarding the lake 126 bank repairs, there was one area added that was not completed by the contractor but they are still 127

Mr. Lusty clarified that 161 if the District is to take up trapping expenses then the trapping must occur on District property. A 162
resident addressed the Board regarding individual home owners paying for trapping on their 163 property. Mr. Jasper advised of his concerns regarding the District incurring the costs for the 164
trapping. Ms. Blandon advised that Mr. Jasper wanted to move forward with trapping efforts in an 165 attempt to reduce damage to CDD property. Mr. Lusty advised the trapping is not a permanent 166 solution and the costs should be shared amongst the various entities; he further suggested the CDD 167
Board budget for trapping efforts. Mr. Cohen suggested that each entity pay for trapping conducted 168 on its property. Mr. Lusty advised the District does not own the pigs and the pigs merely cross 169
District property. Ms. Blandon cautioned the Board that Animal Activists could be within the 170 community and could possibly damage the traps or set the trapped pigs free. Mr. Orenstein inquired 171
regarding action taken by other communities. Mr. Cohen advised some Districts do not take on 172 trapping efforts and some do. Mr. Jasper suggested moving forward with the two-week contract to 173 see what effects are noticed. Ms. Blandon suggested Mr. Schappacher assist in determining the 174

SEVENTH ORDER OF BUSINESS Update Regarding Lennar Proposed 195 Landscape Drawings for Palazzo and 196 Palermo Neighborhoods 197
198 Mr. Jasper provided background to the landscaping regarding the problem between Lennar 199 and the City; he advised the quantity of hard wood trees has become an issue. He advised 346 trees 200
have not been planted as required by the City, so Lennar is resubmitting to the City to have 322 201 trees installed on CDD property. Mr. Jasper advised the CDD’s involvement is that the CDD has 202 to provide the okay to plant the trees on CDD property; he advised there are additional costs to the 203
CDD to maintain the trees in a natural state. He advised that the first year the trees would need 204 irrigation and after that they would not be formally maintained within mulch beds as that would 205 be more expensive. Mr. Jasper advised each homeowner would have to pay to maintain the trees 206
on CDD property; the alternative is for Lennar to plant these trees on individual homeowners’ 207 property. Mr. Jasper suggested that Lennar inquire with the City regarding whether or not the trees 208
must be placed within Venetian or could a mitigation area be created. Mr. Jasper advised he has 209 concerns with crowding around the wetlands and a lot of the areas where they want to put the trees 210 already have vegetation. Mr. Jasper advised he would like direction from the Board for 211
Wednesdays’ meeting. He advised this is a community issue and he would suggest the trees be 212 maintained in a natural state with Lennar paying for the maintenance for the first year. Mr. 213
Orenstein suggested reaching middle ground so that it is not an all or nothing situation; putting 214 some on CDD property and some on POA property. He suggested everyone getting together to 215
come to a mutually beneficial solution. Discussion ensued. Mr. Orenstein suggested going back to 216 Lennar to identify rules for planting in the community. Mr. Cohen clarified; he advised for example 217 go back to Lennar and advise that the CDD would take 100 trees and Lennar would then need to 218
find an additional location for the remaining 200. Mr. Bracco asked for clarification regarding 219 placement of the trees. Mr. Cohen advised Lennar cannot simply place the trees on CDD property 220
but they are asking. Mr. Jasper reminded the Board that the property in Palermo is not owned by 221 the CDD at this time. Mr. Lusty asked for clarification regarding the $9,000.00 maintenance fee 222 for the first year. Mr. Jasper advised that the $9,000.00 is a maintenance quote received from 223
Brightview. Mr. Lusty inquired regarding ongoing maintenance. Mr. Jasper advised Brightview is 224 reluctant to provide pricing at this time. Discussion ensued regarding maintenance of the various 225 types of trees. Mr. Lusty suggested having a conversation with Lennar regarding the option 226 available. Mr. Jasper advised the City is being very particular regarding the planting of the trees. 227 Mr. Jasper asked if there is consensus that the CDD is receptive to the CDD receiving some of the 228
trees on CDD property subject to mitigating conditions. Mr. Cohen inquired regarding Lennar’s 229 timing. Mr. Jasper advised discussions get more difficult after Lennar leaves the community. The 230 President of the Palermo Association advised her residents are not happy about having the trees 231 and they would like to limit the number of trees being placed in Palermo. Mr. Jasper discussed the 232
difference between the bald cypress, holly, and magnolia trees. The president advised the Palermo 233 residents would also like to attend a meeting with the City and Lennar to hear the discussion 234 regarding the trees and to discuss options. A Valenza Loop resident spoke regarding their position 235 on the issue; he advised the residents are not happy. Discussion ensued regarding possible 236 placement of some of the trees within the various communities. 237 238 239

FACILITIES ADVISORY COMMITTEE (FAC)
March 5, 2018
Attending Members: Carl Chorba, John Dabney, Scott Kissell, David Lusty (VCDD Liaison), Jim Allen, Jerry Flood
Resident Guests: Steven Kleinglass
Absent: Debbie Gericke, Boris Yoffe
Discussion Topics:
A. Call to Order: Chairman Mr. Dabney called the meeting to order at 9:00 A.M. He declared that a quorum was present. All parties
introduced themselves.
B. Additions or Deletions to the Agenda: Carl Chorba presented the following additions:
1. Overhead Fans in the Fitness Center
2. Outside Lighting at eastern corner of Fitness Center for nighttime use.
3. Replacement of water coolers in the Fitness Center with moving and installation of the regulation height water
fountain inside the center (a cost saving feature).
4. Landscaping at the River Club (See management report)
C. Approval of minutes from prior meetings: Carl Chorba, acting as Secretary for Boris Yoffe, asked if there were any changes to the
February 5, 2018 meeting minutes. There were none. The committee approved these minutes.
D. Old Business: Old Business:
1. Interior Design: Steve Kleinglass provided the following updates:
i. Two presentations by the bidders were made to the community on February 22nd. Ninety per cent of the
community comments were favorable on the overall project; ten per cent were unfavorable.
ii. The committee presented its recommendation for the Noller group bid to the VCCD at its February 26th
meeting.
iii. The committee’s work is 95 per cent complete but work is still needed to bring the overall project within the
budget guidelines. There are some outstanding issues on sound abatement, lighting, accessories and art work.
iv. On March 12th the committee will meet with Noller’s sound attenuation engineer
v. The Noller group will provide its final package within budget guidelines to the design committee which will be
sent to the VCDD for approval of the contract.
2. Outside signage updates: Scott indicated additional stand-alone signs with contact information for residents to register
complaints/concerns about resident and guest non-compliance of the rules are in place (see Pool Monitor).
3. Hiring of Pool Monitor: Scott indicated a person was hired and quit within a day to address non-compliance issues on
weekends. The most significant infractions are:
i. Beverage and food usage inside the four foot perimeter of the pool; and
ii. Reserving of chairs and chaises lounges with towels when no one is using them.
iii. Scott has considered one of the food runners serving this function but is exploring other options.
1. His goal is to have someone in place no later than the Spring Break.
iv. The committee felt that a large part of the problem was attributable to guests and part-time renters. The last
is particularly a concern with properties in foreclosure with constant turnover with renters of the individual
property. Scott was directed to ask the VCCD attorney whether there was any recourse by turning off the card
access privileges in these instances.
1. The new entry system (RFID vs. clickers now in place) is believed to also, partially, address this issue
as these renters will have to enter the community via the guest lane at the gate. Because they must
sign in we will have a record of who these renters are.
4. Fitness Center:
i. Overhead Fans: Scott reported an electrician is coming out to assess placement. Overhead fans will not work
because of the A/C operates in the facility. Two wall mounted 30” oscillating fans have been ordered and
should be in shortly. These fans will be mounted in opposite corners.
ii. Outside Lighting at Far Corner of Fitness Center: This area has no lighting when it is dark and people are exiting
the bath facilities or enjoying events. Scott has not had an opportunity to research this and will follow up.
iii. Move and Installation of Regulation Height Water Fountain to inside the Fitness Center: Scott said he needs to
follow up on progress. NOTE: After the meeting a work crew was in the process of moving the water cooler
from its current location outside the fitness center to inside the facility.
E. Management Report:
1. Landscaping at the River Club: Scott said there were many dead plants around the circle by the River Club. He is waiting
for the freezing weather period to be over and will attend to this by the end of March
F. VCDD Report: David echoed comments by Steve on the Interiors Committee work. No further updates were made.
G. New Business:
1. Paver Project Proposal for Outside Event Area: Scott presented two RFQ’s for consideration of this project by our
committee. This is a 40’ X 24’ area which abuts, outside, the smaller dining room (where we meet) and the main dining
room on the lawn where outdoor events such as weddings is held. He said this would provide additional outside seating
for tables and seats for up to 40 people. It would include a grill set up for food and a temporary bar location. Currently
the Club has 300+ reservations for outdoor events.
i. Scott recommended Paver Mac as the low bidder at $7,265 for the project.
ii. Not quoted – some landscape softening on side nearest to main dining room.
iii. The committee approved Scott to bring this proposal to the VCDD board.
iv. Scott was requested to provide a background report on the vendor as to quality and reputation.
2. Pool Patio Furniture: Steve indicated there were several lounge chairs in the back of the pool area where the fabric was
ripped along the rails as well as some of the fabric on chairs having darkened areas. Scott said four chairs were redone
this season and he will conduct another inventory on condition of the pool chairs.
3. River Walk: Jim said the steps to the deck area overlooking the Myakka had a sign posted “This area closed, Do not
proceed” nailed to the walkway which has been up for two weeks.
i. Jerry and Carl inspected the area, found the sign and called the number posted on the sign. It was the POA
office. They were informed the issue is with the railing surrounding deck (which used to be a kayak area) and
work is to be done either this week or the week of March 12th to fix the issue. Their inspection found that front
part of the deck was also lower than the back half.
4. Power Wash: Jim asked that the tower (main pool side) be power washed as it appears dirty. David indicted the
underside of the front portico also required cleaning. Scott will address these two areas.
H. Next meeting and Adjournment:
1. Next meeting April 2, 2018.
2. Adjourn @ 09:45 a.m.
Respectfully submitted by Carl Chorba acting for Boris Yoffe, Secretary

c. Committee welcomed new member Boris Yoffe
2. Additions and Adjustments to Agenda
a. No changes to the meeting agenda.
3. Resident Input
No residents were present.
4. VCDD Board Update / Harry Orenstein
a. Community members have requested that the VCDD Board consider building a pickleball court at the
VGRC due to the popularity of the sport. Initial proposal is to place the courts on the golf course
property at the corner of Veneto Dr. and Pesaro Dr. Some residents express concern about the noise
level if built at this location. Mgr. Kissell presented an alternative location for two pickleball courts near
the tennis courts at the River Club. VCDD Board directed Mgr. Kissell to review options for locations near
the River Club. Pickleball can not be played on the existing clay tennis courts. Existing budget does not
include funds for this project.
b. Implementation of the new gate entry system is moving forward. Next major step is to place stickers
(tags) on bottom edge of passenger side mirror. Residents will be asked to park their vehicle(s) in their
driveway at a designated date and time, and VCDD representatives will place he stickers (tags) at that
time.
c. There are two proposed plans for renovation of the River Club. Meetings on February 22 will discuss the
two proposals and residents will be able to ask questions. Also, the concept drawings will be displayed
at the Community Association Annual Meeting on February 26.
d. As follow-up to committee’s request, Harry reported that the only way to terminate the Fitness on
Demand (FOD) contract is to pay all the remaining monthly fees. The FOD system was originally
purchased to provide free fitness class when the $4 fee for instructor-led fitness classes was
implemented in 2016. Some residents are using fitness DVD’s in the system. However, this does not take
full advantage of the FOD subscription-based classes. Currently, staff members must initiate the FOD
classes at the kiosk. Committee would like to have a “self-service” process for residents to select a FOD
class from a list of available classes. Mgr. Kissell and Mgr. Sandomenico agreed to arrange a conference
call with the FOD customer experience manager, Beth Kahny, at the March 19 committee meeting to
discuss options to simplify use of the system and for selection of classes appropriate for our residents.

was full; some people could not fully participate because it was too crowded.
Mgr. Sandomenico said the first class was full at 16 participants. However, there were several
“walk-ins” and the instructor allowed them to observe the class, which is why everyone could not
fully participate.
Due to interest in the class, committee recommended that classes be scheduled more than just
once a month. Mgr. Sandomenico will look into scheduling the class once a week.
The goal of the class is to introduce residents to the basics of yoga to prepare them for the other
yoga classes currently on the schedule. Residents should not expect to continue participating in
the Introduction to Yoga class on an ongoing basis.
Committee recommended that Mgr. Sandomenico explain the goal of this class in emails and in
the fitness calendar. Also, instructors should explain the goal at the beginning of each class.
Mgr. Sandomenico will talk with instructors about the maximum number of “Intro” yoga classes
before residents move to the “regular” yoga classes.

“Provide a sports class (golf, tennis, etc.)” Response: This is under consideration; see 5d above.

“New equipment requested: barbells, weighted plates, and squat rack.” Response: These are not
in the master plan for the exercise room and not appropriate for most residents.

Equipment layout is best for space available. No further action.
“New benches are too hard and too narrow.” Response: These are standard size benches
currently available. No further action.
