602. Community Development Department — Urban Beautification Services Division
Review Of Budget.
Mr. Steven Richart, Urban Beautification Services Division Manager, Community Development
Department introduced this Agenda Item and discussed the Assessments collection within the
District.
With further discussion, Mr. Richart spoke about the fact that we are now provided with an
Annual Report for Oak Forest and stated, "This is something that I am really proud of; our new
company NBS [Government Finance Group] is providing us with this. And this basically is a
recap of everything you need to know that happened with our District for the past year and going
forward."
Mr. Richart added, "When we did meet for the Special meeting last year, we Voted to move
forward with refinancing the remaining debt at a lower interest rate. We have a pay-off date of
June 30�', 2017, so, when that date comes we will be debt free. Our rate of delinquencies is
actually less than Tuscawilla (Lighting And Beautification District). It is good."
REGULAR
603. Community Development Department — Urban Beautification Services Division
Review Of Bud�et.
Mr. Richart presented this Agenda Item and reviewed the Maintenance Items and the Progress
within Oak Forest Subdivision.
With further discussion, Mr. Richart noted "As tight as our budget is, we cannot spend and put in
all the plants that we want to put in every year." Mr. Richart added, "The sprinklers are off now
but I am putting a freeze sensor on the two (2) timers that we have for the wall; if it goes below
thirty-seven degrees (37°) it will shut them off automatically. We need to change out the rain
sensors.
Mr. Richart commented, "We are in Maintenance mode; if you all want to continue to meet
Quarterly, I am great with it. If attendance stays the way it is, we may want to consider having
one (1) annual Meeting a year and have Special Meetings available if we want to call them."
Further discussion resulted in Mr. Richart stating, "Maybe next time we meet, we can Vote on it
to say, the Board is now recommending that we meet once a year because there is not that many
issues; if something comes up we can call a Meeting."
