Summary
After reviewing relocation estimates, the board approved installing a 'zombie box' at the current aerator location for $3,098 and deferred the $10,755 relocation proposals to FY2026 budget discussions. The motion passed 3–2.
District operations staff presented proposals to relocate the aerator in Lake E1‑C, including Premier Lakes’ work order and a revised Bentley Electric estimate that would add roughly 125 feet of electrical work. Staff and board members discussed costs and a lower-cost alternative.

The board agreed to revisit the $10,755 relocation proposals during the proposed FY2026 budget discussions.
