SEVENTH ORDER OF BUSINESS Adoption of District Goals and Objectives Mr. Showe stated the legislature passed House Bill 7013 that now requires districts to have goals and objectives that are measurable. It went into effect July I st and it is required to be posted on your website by October Ist. Mr. Clark stated one of the big issues in this legislation is that they found that a lot of special districts are on the books and they are inactive and they are trying to weed those out and find out which ones are really needed and which ones are serving a function. In the course ofthat legislation somebody got an idea and said why don't we make all of our special districts have goals and objectives and report on whether they are meeting them. We have this piece of legislation that asks you to do some measure of long-term planning on a very short string and then measure what you are planning. There is no accountability associated with this, there are no consequences, they don't tell you what needs to be in your plan other than very vague language that says the objectives and facilities that you are required to manage. Generally, what we are doing in our districts is not very elaborate, we are a CDD, these are the things that we do, we are going to put a doctrine out there that says this is what we do and suggest a way that we manage whether we accomplish that or not. GMS has put together a set of standards that is adequate for most districts. I think it is adequate for this district, I recommend we approve this. On MOTION by Ms. Clevenger seconded by Mr. Dawson with all in favor the district goals and objectives were adopted. 3 July 15,2024 ChampionsGate CDD EIGHTH ORDER OF BUSINESS Staff Reports A. Attorney Mr. Clark stated we did succeed in getting the Toho Agreement signed. There were a few changes, non-substantive. I don't know when they are going to begin working.

Mr. Clark stated our goal of them getting all the work done during slow season didn't happen. Mr. Reicher asked what is the duration ofthe project? Mr. Fracaso stated 60-90 days. Mr. Clark stated other than that I previously discussed conversations I have had with FDOT regarding the electric at the interchange. We put that on hold because of bigger fish to fry related to the interchange. In discussion maybe you will give us an update at the end of the meeting. B.

Approval of Fiscal Year 2025 Meeting Schedule On MOTION by Mr. Dawson seconded by Ms. Clevenger with all in favor the fiscal year 2025 meeting schedule was approved. 4 July 15,2024 ChampionsGate CDD D. Onsite Manager's Report i, Review of Landscape Proposals Mr. Fracaso stated 1 reported at the last meeting that Weber was discussing some significant price increases to their current maintenance contract. Originally, they came in at 12% and 15%, 1 got them down to 10% and 12% respectively for the next two years. They feel that number gets them more in line with their current costs to operate. 1 reached out to Floralawn to get a proposal. Weber's cost came in at $162,975, Floralawn for the same scope was $189,373 but that should be $183,000 because they included the mulch, which we do separate. Floralawn's number was not enough to cover what we need to mulch. 1 think we continue to move forward with Weber for 202412025 and 2025/2026 fiscal year. 1 do have a cost from Clarke environmental to expand our current services from May through November to March through November that would result in a $2,300 annual increase if we choose to do that. Currently we are at $6,741 and it is $9,000 to start in March instead of May. NINm ORDER OF BUSINESS Other Business Mr. Reicher stated two years ago the Florida budget had excess and the governor gave $4 billion to FDOT to use as they saw fit and the express lanes from 192 all the way to Osceola Parkway were born as a concept in two separate legs and the Poinciana Connector was also in that tranche. They are currently under design from Highway 27 north and we have been working with FDOT to make sure we have appropriate access in and out of those lanes. For all practical purposes, design has started. We are hoping to continue to address the traffic issue on 1-4 and get those express lanes working and get those workers in the morning going all the way through. There is limited access so the express lanes go for some distance, it goes almost all the way to Osceola Parkway. Someone is building the last connector on Westside Boulevard. I'm hoping we will have that done in the next 6-10 months. The last piece of property 1 have left in the Village behind Chili's and Red Robin 1 have submitted along with Osceola County to become one of the federal super charger sites. 1 have been working on this for three years. We did get approval from our partners so we are going to add some retail just beyond the OsceolaIPolk County line, about 25,000 square feet of retail. 5 July 15,2024 ChampionsGate CDD TENTH ORDER OF BUSINESS Supervisor's Requests There being no comments, the next item followed.
