Re: 2019 Lake Frances CDD Report

Dear Mr. Kalin:

The intent of this report is fourfold: 1) To inform as to the status of ownership of the infrastructure that was financed or constructed by the District; 2) To describe the state, working order and condition of the infrastructure still owned by the District; 3) To give recommendations as to the funds estimated necessary for the proper maintenance, repair and operation of the District’s infrastructure and; 4) To review the insurance carried by the District and amounts set aside for the purpose of paying their premiums.

The District is located in Section 2, Township 57S, Range 39E, in Miami-Dade County, Florida. It is bounded by SW 132 Avenue (Pine Island Drive) on the west, SW 280 Street (Waldin Drive) on the north, theoretical SW 128 Avenue on the east and SW 284 Street on the south. The Development is located within Postal Zip Code 33033. See Exhibit 1 for a graphical representation.

Infrastructure Ownership
Roads
All avenues, lanes, terraces, places, courts, paths and streets have been dedicated to Miami-Dade County for the perpetual use of the public. This was accomplished by the recording of the following plat:

“Lake Frances Subdivision” recorded on August 4, 2006 in Miami-Dade County Plat Book 165, Page 39.

Stormwater Management System
The road drainage systems within the right-of-way of all the avenues, lanes, terraces, places, courts, paths and streets have been dedicated to Miami-Dade County for the perpetual use of the public by the recording of the plat described above.

On December 16, 2013 Tract “A” (the “Lake Tract”) was granted to the CDD for ownership and maintenance. The Special Warranty Deed was recorded at Miami- Dade County Official Records Book 28964 on Page 4846.

On January 7, 2014 Tract “B” (the “Lake Access Tract”) was granted to Miami- Dade County for ownership. The Special Warranty Deed was recorded at ORBK 28993, PG 3418.

Prior to the granting of Tract “B” to the County on January 7, 2014, the CDD had been granted a permanent easement over Tract “B” to access the Lake Tract. The permanent access easement was granted to the CDD on March 9, 2007 and was recorded at ORBK 25445, PG 2020.

Water and Sewer Systems
The water and sewer systems were conveyed to Miami-Dade County Water and Sewer Department (WASD) for ownership and maintenance. Issues may be reported to the County at either of the following numbers: 305-274-9272 (Emergencies) or 305-665- 7477 (Customer Service).

State, Working Order and Condition of the Infrastructure Currently Owned by the District
Roads
The County roads were completed in 2007 and are in fair condition, with some deterioration at the edges of the pavement at some intersections where larger vehicles get off the road as they turn around corners. Also, the pavement markings are fading and there is a guardrail missing at Tract B. Since the County is the owner of the roads, they have been notified formally of these deficiencies by Alvarez Engineers. Upon filing the complaints, the County assigned cases number 18-10439879 and 17- 10228760 to address the reported items.

The County was notified at: http://www.miamdade.gov/publicworks/report-problems.asp

Stormwater Management System
The stormwater management system, lake and drains, are complete and in good working order and condition. For informational purposes, drainage complaints may be reported online to the Miami-Dade County Department of Public Works and Waste Management by filing the following form:

Lake Tract “A”

Water and Sewer Systems
The water and sewer systems were conveyed to Miami-Dade County Water and Sewer Department (WASD) for ownership and maintenance. Issues may be reported to the County at either of the following numbers: 305-274-9272 (Emergencies) or 305-665- 7477 (Customer Service).

Estimated Maintenance Costs for District Owned Infrastructure
General
The CDD 2018-2019 Fiscal Year budget has the following amounts for maintenance expenditures:

Alvarez Engineers finds the District’s final maintenance budget for Fiscal Year 2018/2019 adequate and sufficient.

Roads
The County maintains the County-owned roads within the District and therefore no maintenance cost estimates are given for such purpose in this report.

Water and Sewer Systems
The water and sewer systems are maintained, operated and funded by WASD and therefore no maintenance cost estimates are given for such purpose in this report.

Insurance
Alvarez Engineers has reviewed the District’s general liability, hired non-owned auto, employment practices liability and public officials liability coverage provided by Florida Insurance Alliance under Agreement No. 100118046 for the period between October 1, 2018 and October 1, 2019. The District has budgeted sufficient funds to cover the $5,000 insurance policy premium.

Description of Public Facilities the District is Building, Improving or Expanding
The District is not currently considering construction, proving or expanding Public Facilities.

This report was prepared to the best of my knowledge and belief and is based on field observations conducted by Alvarez Engineers personnel, the District Engineer’s Report and public documents available.
