River Ridge CDD approves $2.5 million term note after monument cost jump
Summary
The Board approved a $2.5 million tax‑exempt term note to finance district projects while agreeing to delay monument work after bids for four monuments rose from $250,000 to $631,000; the financing is subject to amending the note's acceleration clause and finalizing documents.
The River Ridge Community Development District Board voted May 26 to authorize a Gulf Coast Business Bank tax‑exempt term note financing $2,500,000, subject to final document revisions and amending the note's acceleration clause. The motion was made by Supervisor Kurt Blumenthal, seconded by Chair Bob Schultz and approved unanimously.
Eric Long told the Board the bid for four entrance monuments had increased substantially "from $250,000 to $631,000," a change that made the originally proposed term note insufficient. Long said the district would proceed with permitting and defer the monument construction until the financing and value‑engineering numbers are clarified.
The Board's approval authorizes the Chair to execute the finalized financing documents after staff and counsel adjust the acceleration provision. No individual vote tallies were recorded beyond the meeting note that the motion passed "with all in favor."
