VENETIAN PARC COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT
NOTICE OF RULEMAKING FOR THE ESTABLISHMENT OF PARKING RULES ON DISTRICT LANDS WITHIN THE BOUNDARIES OF THE DISTRICT

A public hearing of the Board of Supervisors of the Venetian Parc Community Development District (the "District") to consider proposed rulemaking for the establishment of parking rules on District lands and other related matters, within the boundaries of the District (the "Rule"), will be conducted and held on September 24, 2020, at 6:00 p.m. in the Venetian Parc Community Clubhouse Meeting Room located at 15351 SW 175th Street, Miami, Florida 33187.

In accordance with Chapters 120 and 190, Florida Statutes, the District hereby gives public notice of its intent to adopt its proposed Rule relating to parking rules on District lands within the boundaries of the District.

The Board of Supervisors and public comment received may result in an adjustment to the proposed Rule during the public hearing, pursuant to discussion and after receiving public comment. The purpose and effect of the proposed Rule is to provide for efficient and effective District operations, public safety, applicable administration, preservation of District property (irrigation systems, sod, signage, etc.) and reduce the need to increase maintenance assessments. Prior notice of rule development waspublished in the Miami Daily Business Review newspaper on August 24, 2020.

Specific legal authority for the Rule includes Sections 190.011, 190.012, 190.035, 120.54, and 120.81, Florida Statutes. The proposed Rule provides for a prohibition of on-street parking, prohibition of parking on non-paved District property, towing provisions for violators and procedure for collection of damages caused by violators.

Any person who wishes to provide the District with a proposal for a lower cost regulatory alternative as provided by section 120.541(1), Florida Statutes, must do so in writing within twenty-one (21) days after publication of this notice.

The public hearing on the proposed Rule may be continued to a date, time, and place to be specified on the record at the hearing. One or two Supervisors may participate by telephone; therefore a speaker telephone will be present at the meeting location so that Supervisors may be fully informed of the discussions taking place.

Pursuant to provisions of the Americans with Disabilities Act, any person requiring special accommodations at this hearing because of a disability or physical impairment should contact the District Office at (305)-777-0761 at least forty-eight (48) hours prior to the meeting. If you are hearing or speech impaired, please contact the Florida Relay Service at 1-800-955-8770, for aid in contacting the District Office.

A person who decides to appeal any decision of the Board with respect to any matter considered at the public hearing is advised that this same person will need a record of the proceedings and should accordingly ensure that a verbatim record of the proceedings is made which includes the testimony and evidence upon which such appeal is to be based.

A copy of the proposed Rule may be obtained by contacting the District Manager at 6625 Miami Lakes Drive, Suite 374, Miami Lakes, Florida 33014, and/or by calling 305-777-0761 Ext. 1216.

Ms. Nguyen explained that if approval is received from the County, Caltran would need to provide a detailed survey for the locations that are being impacted by the additional parking project. Ms. Nguyen further explained that Caltran received a proposal for the site plan survey in the amount of $8,000. A discussion ensued, after which, it was the Board’s consensus to have Mr. Collings-Bonfill provide surveyor contacts to Ms. Nguyen to request additional proposals.

NEW BUSINESS
Discussion Regarding Park Tract Landscape Maintenance Contract – Conde Landscaping

Ms. Nguyen advised that the initial proposal received from Trimscape was $470 per cut. District staff requested that the cost be lowered, after which Trimscape proposed $400 per cut. The current contract with Conde Landscaping is $380 per cut. The Board opined that an increase of $20 per cut was acceptable to keep the landscaping throughout the District uniform.

A motion was made by Mr. Valdes, seconded by Mr. Collings-Bonfill and unanimously passed terminating the Landscape Maintenance Service Agreement between the Venetian Parc Community Development District and El Conde Enterprises, Inc.

A motion was then made by Mr. Valdes, seconded by Mr. Collings-Bonfill and unanimously passed accepting the proposal received from Trimscape Corp. in the amount of $12,000 per annum ($400 per cut) for the landscape maintenance of the park tract.

Discussion Regarding Fertilization of Royal Palms

Ms. Nguyen advised that District Staff had noticed that some of the royal palms throughout the District appear desiccated. She further noted that a thorough inspection of the 295 royal palms within the District boundaries had been conducted, which resulted in 182 royal palms being designated as healthy and 113 royal palms that require attention. Ms. Nguyen stated that the fertilization of the royal palms should have be conducted by the Venetian Parc Homeowners’ Association (the “Association”); however, to prevent additional royal palms from being affected due to the lack of fertilization, District staff acquired three (3) proposals for an initial fertilization treatment of the royal palms for the District Board to review. Ms. Nguyen added that proposals for the annual fertilization would be acquired and presented to the Association for approval.

Ms. Nguyen presented the following proposals for consideration:

Plant Health Care: $11,316.75

A discussion ensued after which the Board requested that an arborist be engaged to do an analysis of the palms and suggest a proper initial treatment for the royal palms.

A motion was made by Mr. Valdes, seconded by Mr. Collings-Bonfill and unanimously passed to approve the not to exceed amount of $8,000 to engage an arborist for an analysis of the royal palms and engage a company for the initial fertilization of the royal palms; and further authorizing District Counsel to prepare a Maintenance Agreement between the Venetian Parc Community Development District and the Venetian Parc Homeowners’ Association and authorizing the District Manager to sign on behalf of the District.

Marked law enforcement or other emergency vehicles are exempt from the parking rules prohibiting on-street parking. Owners/residents who are law enforcement or emergency services officials may not leave their law enforcement or other emergency vehicles in District parking areas described in Rules 1.1 to 1.3, unless they are performing official duties at that location.
