Sunset Pointe (Zone No. 21) Special Districts Budget Summary
Mike Kriste Handed out the Special Districts current budget summary for the advisory committee’s review. The summary was discussed.
Landscape Renovation Project
Rich Meier’s Landscaping is to bid additional planting in the designated areas of Laurelcrest Lane and Dogwood Court. Certain areas of controller #5 still remain to be replanted as part of the renovation project.
It was noted that controller #5 site preparation for replanting will also include some grading and burying of irrigation wire, parallel to the sidewalk, along Sagecrest circle.
As Mike Kriste previously reported at the 12/6/10 meeting, current plans remain to commence work on the areas above in March, 2011. (Note: This item will be revisited at the March meeting since the availability of remaining "renovation funds" has subsequently become questionable.)
Landscape Maintenance
Judy Benevidez and Richard Cambaliza (Maintenance Operations Manager/Rich Meier’s Landscaping, Inc.) were available to answer any landscape maintenance questions the committee might have. Responsibilities of the landscape contractor regarding ongoing tree maintenance were further discussed.
A copy of the approved Landscape and Ground Maintenance Services Contract with Rich Meier’s Landscaping, Inc For Sunset Pointe Area Zones 21 and 63 was made available to the advisory committee.
A quote for extra work to repair severe cracks in certain areas of the concrete drainage system along the slopes was requested from the landscape contractor.
