OLD BUSINESS:

Trustee Terri updated that CertaPro was responsive and will be coming sometime this week (likely Thursday) to powerwash the walls.  Painting will be done in the day that follows, assuming rain doesn’t delay it.  Price for the powerwashing/painting to be $3,500 total, which was approved in the Dec. 2025 monthly meeting.  Trustee Terri makes a motion to approve the bid for a second time, seconded by Trustee Osborne.

The board discussed the next steps after the walls are re-painted, including new plants/vegetation.  Trustee Osborne/Morgado also discussed double checking the irrigation again to make sure it is no longer hitting the walls to prevent further stains.  Trustee Cinquegrano offered to check it tomorrow morning with Trustee Osborne.

Trustee Terri discussed that the trimming of the Robellini trees to reduce blindspots when pulling out of the entrances.  This was thought to have been done by Big League in the last monthly service.  After some discussion, it was unclear if it had actually been done.  This will be communicated to Big League again, if it in fact as not been done.  

NEW BUSINESS:

Trustee Terri confirmed that Certapro has completed work on the entrances/walls by powerwashing & repainting.  Invoice of $3,500 provided and paid.

Trustee Cinquegrano and Osborne performed a walk thru of the irrigation system and confirmed the system was still covering the walls with water.  It was discussed that the system should be retrofitted with drip irrigation to prevent future wall staining.

Trustee Osborne presented quote from S&B Lawn Service for the irrigation work, after meeting with Steven Bye of S&B.  Bid total was for retrofitting of spray heads at all 5 location (2 entrances/5 signs) to drip/low volume irrigation for $3,750.  Also included in the bid was $1,000 for trimming of Robellini palms which were determined to need trimming and clean up.  A new planting bid was $8,100, with new pine bark of $1,430.  Total bid from S&B was $14,280, with 50% or $7,140 due at commencement and remainder at completion.  After some discussion, it was determined that another 1 or 2 bids should be received for comparison purposes.  Also, the board wanted further info on what types of plants S&B was planning on installing.
