Lake Talia - Playground

All,

The following is an update from a recent email thread based on a community project to develop a playground and public area for Lake Talia Residents.

The project will include 1/2 sportcourt, large play set, swings, large pavilion, grilles, benches, signs, landscaping, etc.

Next Steps and Timeline:
1) Lennar will cut the check for the initial $25,000 which will be deposited in our HOA money market account.

2) Michael Cachon (Lennar) will start the bid solicitation process within two weeks. We provided names & contact numbers along with our pricing however contractors will be selected from a Lennar "pre-approved bidders" list.

3) Expect vendor pricing by mid-April and contracts in place around May 1.

4) Though Michael will be cutting the checks, he is not on site so has asked that I fill the role of PM on behalf of the HOA and will have this written into the sub-contracts with each vendor.

5) Vendors will handle permitting - so we shouldn't expect any action back there until the county does their thing. I would like to think we can have this completed by the end of the summer.
