Summary
After discussing relocation proposals for the aeration system in Lake E1‑C, the River Ridge board approved installing a temporary 'zombie box' at the existing location for $3,098. The motion passed 3–2, with Mountford and Blumenthal dissenting.
The River Ridge Community Development District on November 19, 2024 approved installing a temporary "zombie box" aeration device at the existing Lake E1‑C location for $3,098, following discussion of a proposal to relocate the aeration system farther from its originally proposed site.
Operations Manager Shane Willis presented Premier Lakes’ one-time work order and a revised Bentley Electric proposal that would have added about 125 feet of electrical work. The board discussed budget impacts and a suggestion "to revisit the $10,755 in proposals to relocate the aeration box during the proposed Fiscal Year 2026 budget discussions." The motion to install the zombie box passed with Mr. Schultz, Mr. Twombly and Mr. Merrill voting in favor and Mr. Mountford and Mr. Blumenthal dissenting (3–2).
