Tod,  Asl lindicated when we discussed this a while ago, the St. Lucie Village Board of Aldermen has been hesitant to pursue annexations on the wests side of US1, and they have turned down at least one: such request that Ican recall. That being said, there isi no policy, ordinance, or other firm directive that would prohibit such annexations. The best way to get the Board's input on this annexation concept would bei to come to one of our meetings and give a short presentation on your project. We meet thet third Tuesday ofe every month, and the earliest we would be able to put this on: the agenda would bei the October meeting. Please let me know ify you would like to be on the October agenda or al later one to givea  brief presentation of your project.

Realizing the airport is and will continue to be an issue fort the Village, Iwas thinking this would be as solid strategy to better aliow the Village some additional leverage when dealing with noise and other airport operation complaints. The airport's property is directly to the west and north of this site. The only 2 other developments within this vicinity are the old antique mall building and Country Cove Mobile Home park. There is no other development nearby and due to the County owning the property to the west and north, no other development could happen, sO again, ity would seem like an easier annexation piece to consider. The other typical advantages (i.e. - additionaltax revenue, low need fors services duet tot thet type ofuse, etc.) arei included in the attached letter. Please let me know ifit would be helpful to present any oft thei information in person, via zoom or other.

We are exploring the possibility of annexing a property fora a  recreational RVI park located west of. US1.  To provide you with a clearer picture, Ihave attached two exhibits: boundaries, highlighting the location oft the proposed site.  1. Village Boundaries with Aerial View and Subject Property - This exhibit displays the current village 2. Site Plan of the Proposed RV Park -This PDF outlines the layout and design of the proposed recreational vehicle park. It will give you an understanding of the project's scale and the planned amenities and also shows how the stormwater was addressed along with the large preserved area on  the west.  Here are some key reasons why annexing this property could be advantageous for St. Lucie Village:  Low' Traffic Generation: The RVI Park is designed to be a low traffic generator, which means minimal No School Demand: The park does noti include any facilities for school-age children, sO there will be Seasonal Use: The park will operate seasonally, which aligns with the city's goals of managing growth Aesthetic and Environmental Benefits: The development will feature attractive landscaping along US Minimal Service Demands: The park will have its own internal private roadway and will source utilities from either the City of Fort Pierce or St. Lucie County, ensuring no additional demand on the city's  impact on the city's roads and transportation systems. no additional demands on the local schools. and maintaining the quality ofl life for the residents. 1,e enhancing the visual appeal of the area.  services.

Ift the Board is, you will need to submit a petition for annexation, form  attached. Please also provide me a copy of your deed.  Also, be aware that the Board does expect applicants to cover the costs, both of publication and attorney's fees. I've been giving estimates and, if the applicant  agrees and pays that amount, nothing more is required.  Our last experience with an annexation as it relates publication cost suggests thatl need to go a little higher on the estimates than Ih have in the past, and my current estimate is $800.00 which is basically the publication cost plus two hours of my time at the rate I bill the Village. Iwill ask the Board if we can limit the  reimbursement to that amount.  Ift the Board is in agreement, and you are as well, I will then need to prepare an ordinance based on your petition that will have to be approved at two, subsequent  public meetings. Thanks!

Based on myi initial review, the submission was very good and very detailed, however, we will need calcs fori the 10 year- 24 hr, 25 year-72 hour and 100 year- 72 hour using SFWMD methodology and rainfall distribution. It appears the calcs address the FDOT drainage connection pre verses post requirement, using FDOT methodology (this is required to get the required drainage connection permit from FDOT). SLV stormwater criteria is the same as SFWMD. Also, there appears to be no cross section of the planned exfiltration trench system that meets typ standards for SFWMD' WQ1 treatment, we will need that(s specified gravel/specified filter fabric overlapping on top around the trench). The proposed design is not typical oft this area. The SFWMD Exfiltration calculations submitted, appear to use an H2 value that does not match the proposed condition (max H2 would be from the lowest point of discharge (or grate ifr no discharge) to the bottom oft the proposed exfiltration trench. Also for trenches proposed that the width exceeds twice the height, the SFWMD conservative formula is used. The calc also appears to use an unsaturated depth lower than the bottom oft the trench. Would need to revisit these calcs. The provided calcs appear to use storage from 60" pipes within the limits of the trench. SFWMD already assumes 40% voids, so, the added pipe storage does not appear to be appropriate. Finally, the SFWMD exfil formula already accounts fort the 50% credit (SF=2), sO the wq calci is off. The highest predicted wet season water table would be used for the trench design. It appears based on the soil borings We also believe the system should be a retention system with no discharge.

Do not click links or open attachments unless you recognize the  sender and know the content is safe.  Lugey,  Under the current version of the MOU, the Village will be responsible for acquiring the  easements needed.  Ithink that we're set on the easement form that FPUA prefers to use, and we have an updated list of the Phase 1 parcels. lunderstand that legals and sketches will be available for the easement parcels. And, our current plan is that my office will prepare the easements and we  and/or Village staff with address execution of the easements.  The question thatlh have is what standard should we follow to confirm legal ownership (and who should sign the easements)? We could look at the Property Appraiser's records and the most current deed those records link. We could order title commitments (and, theoretically even issue title insurance). We could also just get ownership and encumbrance searches for  the parcels from the title company. What do we need to do on this?  3    (And, ift the title information obtained shows a third partyi interest, such as a mortgage, do we need to get something from thatt third-party? Whaty would FPUA typically require?)  Thanks in advance for your input.  Regards, Richard Richard V.

Neill, Jr. David Whitney; William Thiess; Paulette Burgess RE: Stow & Go - site plan improvements  Brandon and Meghan,  Ihad personally wondered, and was asked at the last board meeting, about the schedule for completing the improvements as per your approved site plan. Aslrecall, the question came up in the context of the screening material for the fence, which was part of the plan for  meeting the Code's buffer requirements.  A logical follow up for me would be to get information and update the Board. Please provide an update on your plan and schedule for completion of the site plan improvements.  Thank you.

We can then easily embed videos on the site in  addition tol having them on' YouTube. Thel level ofe effort is smallt to do this.  Asy yous get the raw video files, send those to me and Ican handle.  Also,i it'sa a good idea tot take one long video (and publishi it) but then also break that video upi into smallervideosand  publish the smaller parts, too.  From: Richard' V. Neill,.

To: Terence Channon tchannon@terencenet.com> Subject: SLV- posting videos on the website  Cc: Paulette Burgess pauete-burgessesticevlagengov; David Whitney <DWhitney@neilgriffin.com>  Terence,  Aquestion came up at the Board's last meeting about posting videos on the website. Idon't know that we have anything that is ready to post, but videos are being recorded with long-time residents about history and recollections of St. Lucie Village, the St. Lucie School, etc. Subject to getting required permissions, the Board might be interested in posting these SO  they are available for the public to see.  understand that the interviews are fairly extensive but might also be broken up into  segments.  Ihave to believe that you would be able to provide for the website to allow viewing of the  videos but I, of course, have no idea what would be involved.  Ifwe're talking about wanting to do that and posting or somehow providing access to hours of  interviews, how would that be done and what might the cost be?  Would appreciate your thoughts and advice.    Thanks. Richard Richard V. Neill, Jr., of Neill Griffin Marquis Osking, PLLC Post Office Box 1270 Ft.
