SECOND ORDER OF BUSINESS Approval of Minutes of the April 28, 2017 Meeting Mr. Luis Hernandez: The next item that we have is Approval of Minutes of the April 28, 2017 Meeting. This would be the time to make any changes, corrections, additions, or deletions. If there are none, a motion to approve them would be in order.

THIRD ORDER OF BUSINESS Consideration of Resolution #2017-04 Approving the Proposed Fiscal Year 2018 Budget and Setting the Public Hearing Mr. Luis Hernandez: The next item that we have on the agenda is Consideration of Resolution #2017-04 Approving the Proposed Fiscal Year 2018 Budget and Setting the
May 26, 2017 South Kendall CDD Public Hearing. As you probably know from seeing this, it just means the District is going to be starting the budget process for the coming year. Before we go to the resolution itself, management has included a copy of the proposed budget. We have gone through the basic process and based on the prior year s expenditures and how the District has been operating for the last year and estimate what will be those costs, the part I want to report because I think it would be appropriate for the Supervisors to know is that for the general fund the District will be able to maintain the same level of assessments even after undertaking some estimated increases with no changes to what was levied last year. It is important to highlight that the budget itself shows that there is an increase, but it is just to formalize that when we adopted the budget there was savings coming off the debt and at that point it wasn t measured, but right now the way the budget is being presented, it takes into consideration that increase. The part that needs to be said is that the total amount is not changing whatsoever. With that being said, does anyone have any questions? Keep in mind, this is just the proposed budget. It will take at least 60 days before we can adopt the final budget and within that timeframe, Supervisors will have further opportunities to ask as many questions as you would like. The only important steps we are undertaking today is that it is the public hearing date is being set and no increases will be made in the levies to the homeowners. Not hearing any questions, next we need to determine when to set the public hearing. The earliest we could do it would be July 28 th. The latest would be August 25 th. The importance is to know that we will have a quorum and I want the Supervisors to keep in mind a special advertisement is required for the adoption of this budget and it is crucial to know we will have a quorum. Typically July is a month that people take vacations and that is the reason why I suggest August, but it is really up to the Board. Mr. Valdes: August is good. Mr. Luis Hernandez: Okay so August 25 th? Ms. Fayad: Yes. Mr. Luis Hernandez: So with that being said, there are no increases and the resolution is going to be reading that the meeting will be on August 25, 2017, which is 2

Corp. for Annual Tree Trimming Mr. Luis Hernandez: Under Manager, just taking advantage that we were having the meeting, I have reminded Supervisors and included this proposal. The District has an agreement where we combine efforts with the HOA and at this point you are seeing a proposal from Tony s Nursery & Garden Svc. Corp. for tree trimming. That is a regular expense that we have in our budget. The total amount is $31,520.00 and the arrangement is that the CDD pays for half of it and the HOA pays for the other half. So I am just presenting it as part of a formality that I like to do, especially when that information is being given at the time of a meeting. For that matter, a motion to ratify the expense of the $15,760 for the tree trimming would be in order. 3
