Unapproved

SECOND ORDER OF BUSINESS	Audience Comments
The following comments were made:
Mr. Nicholson addressed the Board regarding the letter Mr. McIntosh sent dated November 25, 2025, regarding his request for replanting along the canal bank between Riverside Elementary School and the abutting houses along 114th Terrace.
He noted privacy is not the only concern and discussed landscaping requirements under the City’s land development code. He stated the District expended funds to remove trees, grind tree stumps, grade and sod the school property. He thinks the District should have the authority to expend funds to replace required landscaping that was removed.
Mr. Kraus asked if Mr. Nicholson is open to compromising on the plantings. Mr. Nicholson responded it is a matter of City ordinance and code.
Mr. Ritter stated Mr. Nicholson should take this up with the City because they approved the permit. With regards to shrubs on school property, they may be able to speak to the school about installing shrubs to comply with City code since it is on their property. If permits were issued to remove trees on school property, it would likely be to allow the District to access the trees on the District right-of-way. The reason why those trees had to be removed was to prevent flooding. He suggested he continue to work with the City on pressing the issues brought up regarding City code.
Mr. Nicholson stated the next step would be to initiate a code enforcement complaint.
Mr. Kraus addressed the Board and noted silence is agreement. He does not agree with Mr. Ritter. He thinks the District did go over on to school property and removing the trees was an improvement to their property by doing the maintenance improvements the school did not do for many years. He feels the Board was elected to serve the financial guidance of the District and also, to represent the constituents. If he was looking across and saw the school, he would feel the Board did not serve him properly. He thinks

Unapproved	2

they should press to have trees installed whether it be done by the School Board or the City. He is open to compromise.
Mr. Tiefenbrun commented on the District going from third party management to in-house management. He thinks it is a great idea considering the personnel the District has. He would like the District and District Counsel to exercise due diligence to ensure the mindset of the current personnel remains the way it is and prevent someone in the future coming in to make financial gains for themselves.

THIRD ORDER OF BUSINESS	Approval	of	the	Minutes	of	the
November 17, 2025 meeting

On Motion by Mr. Groenevelt seconded by Mr. Ritter with all in favor the minutes of the November 17, 2025, meeting were approved as presented.

FOURTH ORDER OF BUSINESS	Financials for November 2025

On Motion by Mr. McEwen seconded by Mr. Ritter with all in favor the financials for November 2025 were accepted as presented.

FIFTH ORDER OF BUSINESS	Consideration of Resolution 2026-01,
Designating Joseph Stephens as Assistant Treasurer and Retaining David McIntosh as Assistant Treasurer
Mr. Ritter asked who the current Assistant Treasurers are. Ms. Ladner responded Mr. Cassel and Mr. McIntosh are the current Assistant Treasurers.
Mr. McEwan asked what the role is of an Assistant Treasurer. Ms. Ladner responded most checks require two signatories and this ensures adequate signatories are available.

On Motion by Mr. Ritter seconded by Mr. McEwen with all in favor Resolution 2026-01, designating Joseph Stephens as Assistant Treasurer and retaining David McIntosh as Assistant Treasurer, was adopted.

Unapproved	3

SIXTH ORDER OF BUSINESS	Staff  Requests  Board Approval  to
Purchase a Ford Explorer Under the Board Approved Piggyback of the Florida Sherriff’s Association Light Vehicle Contract FSA 24-VEL 33.0 Pursuit, Administrative, and Other Vehicles Contract (If approved staff will purchase the Ford Explorer from Duval Ford under this contract for
$39,060)
Mr. McIntosh stated this came up after the budget was approved. With the amount of underground fiberoptic work going on, Mr. Hanks and Mr. Stephens must go on several on-site visits. They have been using their personal vehicles, which is not an ideal situation for the District. Their vehicles are not fitted with the correct safety equipment.
Mr. McShea noted the Water Department lends their trucks at times, so it is good to have this vehicle.

On Motion by Mr. Ritter seconded by Mr. Kraus with all in favor, the purchase of a Ford Explorer piggybacking off the Florida Sherriff’s Association contract at a cost of $39,060, was approved.

SEVENTH ORDER OF BUSINESS	Staff  Requests  Board Approval  to
Piggyback on Sourcewell Contract Number 011723-JDC for Heavy Construction Equipment with Related Attachments and Technology, and John Deere Construction Retail Sales as well as Board Approval to Purchase a Compact Excavator for
$57,247.78, Including any Potential Price Increase from Dobbs Equipment, a John Deere Dealership Using this Contract
Mr. Maloi stated this is for a mini excavator, which they budgeted $60,000 for this fiscal year. This will provide for cleaner and more efficient work, especially in smaller areas.

Unapproved	4

Mr. Ritter asked if the District ever had to rent a compact excavator and if this will save money from expenses incurred. Mr. Selvon responded he had to rent one several times.
Mr. McIntosh noted areas are becoming more congested.
Mr. Stephens stated there was a situation where there was a main break in a driveway. While Mr. Maloi was focusing on the main break, Mr. Stephens was contacting several rental companies, but they were two days out of becoming available. He even reached out to Mr. Olson to see if they had one in the area the District could borrow. The mini excavator will increase safety for staff.
Mr. McEwan asked what the life span is on a mini excavator. Mr. Hanks responded 10 to 20 years if they are maintained.

On Motion by Mr. McEwen seconded by Mr. Kraus with all in favor, piggybacking off the Sourcewell contract for heavy construction equipment with related attachments and technology, and John Deere construction retail sales as well as the purchase of a compact excavator in the amount of
$57,247.78, including any potential price increase from Dobbs Equipment, a John Deere dealership, was approved.

EIGHTH ORDER OF BUSINESS	Consideration of Work Authorization
#248	for	Pretreatment	System Evaluation – Kimley Horn
Mr. Gerszuny reviewed the work associated with Work Authorization #248.

On Motion by Mr. Kraus seconded by Mr. Ritter with all in favor, Work Authorization #248 was approved at a not to exceed amount of $122,120.

NINTH ORDER OF BUSINESS	Discussion	on	Engagement	Letter
with Lewis, Longman and Walker for Legislative Monitoring
Mr. Behn reviewed the engagement letter to monitor special districts and utilities during legislation. There is activity on biosolids this year as well as public records enforcement actions.
Mr. Ritter asked how many months the engagement letter covers. Mr. Behn responded 12 months; however, most of the work is done within the first 6
Unapproved	5

months because of the legislative period. The engagement letter does allow for a 30-day termination with written notice.
Mr. Ritter stated FASD reports on legislation. He asked if this is a replication of what would be reported on by Lewis, Longman and Walker. Mr. Behn responded there may be some duplication, but he would be reporting, and focusing, on legislation more specified for the District.

On Motion by Mr. Ritter seconded by Mr. McEwen with all in favor the engagement letter with Lewis, Longman and Walker for legislative monitoring was approved for a total fee of
$24,000.

TENTH ORDER OF BUSINESS	Engineer’s Report
Globaltech
Mr. Olson reviewed his report; a copy of which is attached hereto as part of the public record. He provided updates on the following:
WA #241 – all sub-contracts have been executed. They released the purchase order for the building fabrication. He will be meeting with the City’s Planning and Zoning Department next month to ensure everything is acceptable to them.
WA #234 – there has been good progress in the last five days. They installed all valves using new technology which is faster and easier. They are preparing a revised piping diagram outside the high service pump building.
WA #235 – they are finishing the cost estimate to revise this project. He will discuss different alternatives with Mr. Hanks. If a change order is necessary, it will be on the January agenda.
WA #236 – the well was re-disinfected for the third time.
WA #238 – all work on the canal bank stabilization is complete. They are finishing the restoration of the staging area. He noted they are spending approximately $50,000 to remove trees, restore the asphalt and restore the trees based on the tree removal permit. This saved the District from spending
$200,000 due to efficiency in how this project was executed. Mr. Stephens helped negotiate the work with Mr. Richard Schnars who is the property

Unapproved	6

manager for 210 North University Drive. Mr. Ritter requested a thank you letter be sent to Mr. Schnars.
WA #239 – the system has been operational for three weeks. They are troubleshooting. The old system is expected to be decommissioned in the next week. The last part of the project is bringing the communication system up from the generator and taking it off the last service panel, which is expected to be done in January.
WA #244 – is in the design phase and they will be submitting for a permit for the electrical modifications in February.
WA #245 – work will be completed next week.
Broward County is considering the final paving on Atlantic Boulevard as a permitted project. The work done to date was considered emergency work, which they approved without a lengthy permit review process. They submitted an MOT plan, which is currently in the review phase. As soon as it is approved, they will be on site to complete the work.
Mr. Olson noted no trees were removed from private property. All trees were on the property line.
Injection Well Pump #404 is having issues. The senior engineer is evaluating other pumps for alternatives. A work authorization may be on the next agenda for this.
The Emergency Response Plan as well as the R and R plan are a State requirement that needs to be done every five years. It is due December of 2026. It will be on the next agenda.

Kimley-Horn
Mr. Gerszuny reviewed his report; a copy of which is attached hereto as part of the public record. He provided updates on the following:
WA #241 – They met December 12, 2025. They have been evaluating capital costs. They are looking at nanofiltration in terms of investment dollars. Maintenance and training are minimal in this type of system. They will have the

Unapproved	7

draft report to staff in January and then they will begin with the pilot testing aspect of the project.
WA #243 – they are finalizing the draft report and will submit it later this week. They are reevaluating different technologies for processing biosolids within the plant compared to connecting to the Broward County initiative. Connecting to the Broward County initiative is considerably lower in terms of capital costs. He expects to have a presentation for the next meeting.

ELEVENTH ORDER OF BUSINESS	Staff Reports
Manager – Lynne Ladner
Ms. Ladner reported she has been working with Mr. McIntosh and Ms. Demarco on transitioning the District records. She thanked the Board for the opportunity to work with them over the past few months.

Utilities Update – Joe Stephens
Mr. Stephens reported the following:
Mr. Mark Darmanin from the regional biosolids group at the County sent an email 30 minutes before the meeting with a draft letter the County put together asking for an extension of time under SB 290. He is asking the other participants to consider sending the letter with their respective letterhead and send it to the State Representatives. He will forward the letter to District Counsel.
He noted Mr. Jared Davis at Duval quoted the Ford Explorer for the northern zone but it needed to be for the southern zone. The actual cost is $200 more, so the total is $39,260. Mr. Behn confirmed Board action is not necessary for the additional $200 because it is under the State contract.

Finance and Accounting – Sue Beyer
Ms. Beyer did not have anything new to report.
Mr. Kraus requested Ms. Beyer prepare a five-to-seven-minute presentation on the current system the District has and what works about it, as well as what does not work about it so the Board can decide whether they need to look further into it.
Mr. Ritter noted it would be to look at the accounting system and whether a software upgrade is needed.
Mr. Kraus explained he wants to know what the District currently has, what is good about it and what is not good about it. Also, what they could have along with what the cost would be. It would not be to vote on it but instead for the Board to decide whether it needs more attention or not.
Mr. McIntosh stated typically, if they want to change something he and the Finance Director can discuss and decide if something needs to be upgraded before coming to the Board. He is not sure why the Board would want to start making those decisions.
Mr. Ritter asked if the District has a unified accounting system with modules, what is being used and whether a new system is being looked at. Mr. McIntosh responded they have been discussing upgrades at the staff level. Mr. Ritter stated it would be more informational for the Board.
Mr. Kraus also brought up discussions about the auditor and how many years the District has had the same auditor.
Mr. McIntosh clarified it is not that he does not have an interest in changing auditors. His point is when they do something, he wants to ensure they do it properly and in accordance with the law. The District did an RFP for auditing services approximately two years ago. Mr. Groenevelt was the only Board member on the Audit Committee; the rest of the Audit Committee were residents including Mr. Ritter who was not on the Board at that time. The Audit

Unapproved	10

before initiating an external search. The process may include résumé review, screening by the Board or a designated consultant, interviews, reference and background checks, and any other evaluation method approved by the Board.
The Executive Director shall be appointed by majority vote at a properly noticed public meeting, and all deliberations shall comply with the Sunshine Law. The Board may appoint an interim Executive Director if necessary and may modify or shorten the recruitment process when warranted by operational needs or the availability of a qualified internal candidate. The Board may, but is not required to, enter into an employment contract with the Executive Director, provided any such contract is consistent with this policy. All recruitment materials and actions shall be maintained as public records in accordance with Florida law.

What are Biosolids?

Biosolids are the nutrient-rich organic byproducts resulting from wastewater treatment.
Wastewater solids, also known as sewage sludge, are an unavoidable byproduct.
In order to be applied to soils as a soil amendment, biosolids have to be treated and tested and meet strict federal and state requirements.
Depending on the treatment, biosolids are classified as AA, A, or B.
Class AA biosolids can be used with minimal restriction in many different kinds of applications.
Whereas Class B biosolids contain some pathogens and may only be used at permitted, restricted sites.

Chapter 62-640, F.A.C. governs biosolids management:

Class B: Minimum quality, land application only with strict site restrictions and Nutrient Management Plan (NMP)
Class A:  Intermediate quality, “Low levels”, pathogen reduction and vector attraction, land application with some setbacks, requires NMP
Class AA: Highest quality, meets Class A pathogen standards plus metal concentration limits; unrestricted, NMP not required

2021 Revision (F.S. 403.0855) tightened land application nutrient management rules to minimize the migration of nutrients, specifically phosphorus, to prevent impairment to waterbodies.

Practical Implications:

Land application for Class B is becoming more difficult, pushing utilities toward regional facilities (public or private) producing Class AA Biosolids for disposal

Federal Biosolids Standards

Agenda Page 46

Regulatory Update

EPA's 40 CFR Part 503 sets pathogen, pollutant, and vector attraction limits with mandatory annual reporting for biosolids management.

Florida State Regulations
Florida enforces stricter land application rules, soil depth restrictions, and mandates Best Management Practices under Chapter 62-640 and Statute 403.0855.

Nutrient Management & Monitoring
House Bill 1309 requires nutrient application limits based on nitrogen or phosphorus and annual nutrient plan reviews with enhanced water quality monitoring.

Emerging Contaminants & Future Impact
PFAS and other emerging contaminants are under review, with potential new federal regulations affecting biosolids programs and technology adoption.
11 States have/are proposing land application limits on PFAS-laden biosolids.

130 in 2021 to ~42 in 2025,

Decline in Land Application Sites

CHANGE ORDER NO. 1 WORK AUTHORIZATION 235 No.	GT-151496

Pursuant to the provisions contained in the "Contract for Professional Engineering Consulting and Design-Build Services on a Continuing Contract Basis " between the CORAL SPRINGS IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT, hereinafter referred to as "OWNER", and  Globaltech, Inc., hereinafter referred to as "FIRM", dated July 1, 2012  (hereinafter referred to as "AGREEMENT"), this Work Authorization, executed this  19th  day of _December 2022, authorizes the FIRM to provide services under the terms and conditions set forth herein and in the AGREEMENT, which is incorporated herein by reference as though set forth in full.

The OWNER desires design-build services related to 6-inch Finished Water Line Isolation, hereinafter referred to as the “Specific Project”.

Section 1 – Terms
No change

Section 2 – Scope of Work

Following the execution of WA-235, CSID Staff conducted flow tests on the fire hydrants located on the 6-inch finished water line. Tests were performed with the valves open and closed simulating the removal (isolation) of the 6-inch line that runs under the Field Maintenance Office. Results of the tests indicated that flow in the pipe (once modified) would be significantly impacted and would not meet fire flow requirements.

Change Order 1 to WA-235 revises the original scope of work. The 6-inch line that runs under the Field Maintenance Office will now be re-routed approximately 40 feet to the north.  This work will be conducted prior to the demolition and

construction of a new field office and will eliminate a potential water line failure under the structure’s slab.

Work outlined in the original WA-235 will be required and performed prior to relocating the 6-inch water main. In summary, the following tasks will be completed:
Install integral collars around the 6-inch water main beyond the existing valves.
Pour concrete thrust restraints over the collars to prevent line movement.
Disconnect 6-inch water line between valves. Abandon water line by filing with concrete.
Complete “loop” of 6-inch water main by installing piping beyond the footprint of the Field Maintenance Office.
Construct new 6-inch ductile iron water main.
A new 2-inch water service will be installed to feed the Field Maintenance Office. The water service will be finished with a 2-inch ball valve and capped above ground surface. CSID Staff will complete the service connection.
All trenches will be backfilled, compacted and graded ready for sod (by others).

Task 1 – Project Coordination/Review
No change

Task 2 – Engineering and Project Management
No change

Task 3 – Construction of Improvements
Relocated 6-inch water line completing the “loop” around the Field Maintenance Office.
