Commissioner Davis asked staff what could be done to help the residents of Citrus Springs <br />deal with their issues. Administrator Baird suggested we could have our Lobbyist aggressively <br />introduce this issue in Tallahassee. <br />Commissioner Davis thought it would be appropriate to ask our Lobbyist to approach this <br />issue immediately during its Special Session. <br />Mike Sento discussed problems he experienced, and the lack of cooperation from the <br />builder/developer. He suggested the Board apply pressure until developers fulfill their obligations. <br />Commissioner Davis wondered who would be hurt if the County holds up building <br />permits for the developer. <br />In response to Chairman Wheeler's inquiry of what their options were, Director <br />Keating said they were still holding some Maintenance Bonds on some of the Phases, so they <br />could look at those and make sure the Maintenance Bonds are drawn on if there were problems. He <br />also stated that if it was required landscaping, Code Enforcement would become involved, but for <br />amenity landscaping, the County has no control and could not require specific performance. <br />Board members and staff further discussed Maintenance Bonds, and how to remedy <br />the situations between now and June 25, 2007, in the Phases involved. Staff offered to contact St. <br />Johns and to go out together and see what they could do for the residents of Citrus Springs. <br />Ann Genie, Citrus Springs, Village G, had called St. Johns and was told they would <br />not do anything on their side of the Street (Villages A, B & C) until they were finished on Village <br />C. She wanted the record to reflect that coming into Village E, there was a "piece of grass" that <br />has never been mowed, and said piece of land is listed as a Park on the Plan. <br />29 <br />June 5, 2007 <br />
