Field Manager’s Report
Consideration of Proposals for Pool Shade Structure
ProPlaygrounds
Playworx
Playmore
Mr. Bailey reviewed previously presented proposals for shade structure at the amenity center. The Board discussed installation timing, funding options, vendor experience, warranty considerations, and placement feasibility. It was noted that the project is not included in the current fiscal year budget; however, sufficient prior-year surplus funds are available to fund the installation without increasing assessments.
Mr. Bailey explained that the proposed location was selected based on site constraints and structural considerations, with placement intended to provide shade over seating areas without impacting existing hardscape or landscaping. Color coordination and durability were discussed, with a preference for a blue shade fabric and neutral frame.
Following discussion, the Board reached consensus to proceed with installation during the current fiscal year.

On MOTION by Ms. Roden, seconded by Mr. Shockley, with all in favor, the Playworx Proposal totaling $27,260 and Authorizing Staff to Coordinate Color Selection Consistent with Existing Amenities, was approved.

Mr. Bailey also reported that roadway ruts caused by vehicles turning sharply were filled with gravel to reduce further deterioration. Staff will continue to monitor the area and add material

as needed. Palm tree seed pods were trimmed, and vendors continue to perform routine maintenance satisfactorily. Fence encroachments within drainage swales remain under review to ensure compliance with engineering standards.
A Board member raised concerns regarding the appearance of the right-of-way area between the first and second entrances, noting persistent turf issues. Staff advised that the area is within the City/County right-of-way, limiting the District’s authority to modify it beyond routine maintenance. The Board was advised that visibility concerns caused by overgrowth should be reported to Code Enforcement.
The Board also discussed gravel displacement onto the roadway. Mr. Bailey will explore options to better stabilize the gravel, including potential binding solutions.

Staff clarified that the contractor was scheduled for annual camera maintenance, typically performed once per year, and that the lack of advance notice and access codes appeared to be a coordination issue. Staff will follow up with the security vendor to confirm maintenance
