Attorney

CDD Ethics Training Requirements

Mr. Lazarovich: As you are aware there was a new requirement from the legislature that now all CDD Board members are required to complete four hours of ethics training annually. It does not need to be reported on the 2024 Form 1, it will be on the 2025 Form 1, but you can complete the training this year.
Engineer
Discussion of Ownership and Maintenance Map
Mr. Prowell: We are trying to get the map done. It is just for Phase 1A and the rights of ways at this point that have been conveyed to the CDD and we can do the future phases as well.
Mr. Forbes: We definitely need to move on 1B as well.
Mr. Register: What might be helpful is to prepare an ERP map, for example the Phase 1A ERP presumably includes all the stuff outside 1A, 1B for sure includes digging ponds. Try to create what is issued and what is planned to be issued to create an all-encompassing map of all ERPs. That would be helpful to include in these permit transfers.

Mr. Prowell: Phase by phase we can close these out and transfer permits. I’m not aware of any that need to be transferred at this point.
