The River Ridge CDD on Oct. 22 authorized Bowman Consulting to retain RG Architects, P.A. as a subconsultant to redesign two gatehouses and related guardhouse elements. Eric Long presented RG's fee proposal and the Board discussed project scope, zoning, potential need for a new elevation certificate and the plan to book the $62,500 design fee as a reimbursable deferred cost to be invoiced when construction financing is issued (design and permitting expected to take 12 to 18 months).
The Board also approved a Bowman Consulting Group proposal to replace monuments and update Pelican Sound's master signage program; neighborhood monument replacements, design and permitting costs will be charged to Pelican Sound replacement reserves.
For storm cleanup after recent hurricanes, the Board authorized Precision Cleaning, Inc. to perform emergency street sweeping. Staff reported eight loads of debris and eight passes through the district; the Board approved a one-time payment of $1,475 and gave staff authority to add week-to-week cleanings for the next month if necessary.
The Chair authorized staff to proceed with contracting steps after counsel and manager review; Mr. Long and Mr. Blumenthal will serve as leads on communications and monthly updates related to the gatehouse project.
