River Ridge details drainage work in four neighborhoods, targets end‑of‑July completion
Summary
District engineer reported all four drainage sites are under construction with pipe and grading work underway; staff expect completion by the end of July and will track contingency costs from unexpected repairs.
Charlie Krebs, the District Engineer, briefed the Board that "all four sites are under construction," with clearing and silt fences in place, fill staged at Turnberry, pipe installation in Oak Run planned the week of June 29, and sod installation in Turnberry and Palmetto Dunes the week of July 2. He told the Board that Palmetto Dunes will require removal and replacement of a total of twelve trees (mostly slash pines and two red maples) and that declining Royal Poinciana trees will be replaced.
Krebs and staff described schedule and cost‑tracking procedures: Clarke Construction is the on‑site contractor and crews are working evenings and Saturdays; a log of additional costs (including environmental review fees required by the South Florida Water Management District and an accidental A/C coolant line break) will be provided to the Board at the next agenda. Staff said some irrigation and cart path repairs will be funded from Contingency.
