FOURTH ORDER OF BUSINESS	Consideration of Proposals from Nation
Security for Amenity Security Patrol Services
Seasonal 16 Hours Per Week Option
Season 7 Days Per Week Option
Ms. Burns reviewed the proposals for amenity security patrol services. Two main options were discussed: Option one involves increased staffing from spring break through Labor Day, providing coverage on weekends and daily during the summer, while option two offers limited summer staffing with no weekend coverage between spring break and Memorial Day. The budget for security is $52,000, and both options fall under budget option one by $13,000 and option two by $24,000. The second amenity facility will not be open this fiscal year, so only one facility is being considered for security coverage.

Field Manager’s Report
Mr. Tindall reviewed the overall maintenance. The current maintenance update indicates a waiting period, with routine trash pickup ongoing and amenities in good condition. The team is closely monitoring plant health, especially as the season changes, to assess which vegetation will recover after recent cold snaps. New park areas and a playground are being integrated into operations and insurance coverage. Proposals for additional common areas are being collected, and preparations are underway to keep the grounds in optimal shape as the weather transitions. He stated the report highlights several maintenance and repair items, including estimates for light facade repairs, sign replacement, and landscaping work. These items have already been submitted to the insurance company; the sign is insured, but landscaping coverage is uncertain and will be verified. Construction continues with new features like a dog park, additional park areas, perimeter improvements, and a playground being added. These updates will be incorporated into the next round of maintenance and included in the Yellowstone contract.

Consideration of Proposals for Entrance Area Repair on Carl Boozer
Mr. Tindall reviewed repair work for the ball or sign facade, which was damaged when a vehicle struck it and displaced stones. It also mentions replacing a cabinet and landscape elements, with Yellowstone handling disposal and replacement. The project is pending suitable weather and may not be covered by insurance.

On MOTION by Ms. Shockley, seconded by Ms. Spencer, with all in favor, the Proposals for Entrance Area Repair on Carl Boozer, was approved.

Consideration of Proposal from Yellowstone for Replacement Landscaping for Grove at Crosswinds Areas
Mr. Tindall reviewed two repair and replacement proposals focused on the growth crosswinds area, particularly the entrance sign and surrounding plantings. The proposals address issues with failing plants, such as jasmine struggling in sandy soil, and recommend replacing them with more resilient species and adding color. There is also a proposal for sod replacement and a magnolia tree near the amenity area, intended to improve curb appeal and fill in bare spots as weather permits. Budget details are included to ensure the projects remain within allocated

landscaping funds. He will send out a budget for this. There’s $32,489 left in the Landscaping budget right now.

On MOTION by Ms. Shockley, seconded by Ms. Spencer, with all in favor, the Proposal from Yellowstone for Replacement Landscaping for Grove at Crosswinds Areas, was approved.

Consideration of Addendum to Landscape Maintenance Services Contract
Mr. Tindall reviewed Yellowstone phase and other related phases that are progressing, using TCID time management. A summary on page 185 and detailed breakdowns on page one of five show that each parcel is handled individually to determine rates. The newly included section is highlighted in yellow, with a total expansion cost of $129,384. The overall maintenance budget is $400,000, but this does not include additional services, which will be approved as needed throughout the year. Maps and subtotals for new and existing services are available, while some upcoming items in gray are still pending and expected to be ready soon. He noted the awarded contracts include two main items: Yellowstone's current contract for $181,980 and a separate line item for $18,000. While the formal offer also covered the yellow area along the boulevard for
$3,000, this section was not ready during the initial contract discussions. Although it was projected as part of the overall plan and included in formal documentation, it was not explicitly written into the contract but was later formally added.

On MOTION by Ms. Shockley, seconded by Ms. Spencer, with all in favor, the Addendum to Landscape Maintenance Services Contract, was approved.
