Discussion Regarding Stormwater Management System
As per the Board’s request, District Staff sought a proposal for the cleaning of the community’s stormwater management system. Mr. Silva presented one proposal from Raptor Vac Systems which outlined the following information:

PROJECT OVERVIEW
Project has been reviewed and a total of 81 catch basin structures and 131 French drains have been identified within the development. The French drains have an average of 30LF of pipe.

Due to the layout and type of the drainage system and the landscape throughout the development and particularly the large trees on top of the French drains, it is very likely that roots have gradually invaded the system over the years. We will remove all sediment from the pipelines and basins and remove the majority of the roots if not all, our trucks' jetline tools will conduct this root clearing within the

standard cleaning. Some roots may remain but the vast majority will be extracted. Removal of sediment and roots will restore exfiltration capabilities and which results in better performance during rain events.

Baffle removal and reinstall is included, any broken baffles (fiberglass are very weak and over the years will exhibit damage) will be disposed of.

PRICING
Removal of sediment from 88 catch basin structures @ $115.00 per unit. SubTotal $10,120.00
Pipeline jetlining and desilting for 131 French drains @ $109.00 per unit. SubTotal $14,279.00 Grand Total $24,399.00
SCHEDULE
We are on a two week lead time but could possibly commence a few days earlier if needed. We would allocate two trucks for this project and expect to complete the project in 5 to 7 days.

DELIVERABLES
Disposal manifest and report with images and detailing project would be provided.

INSURANCE AND LICENSES
Raptor Vac is fully licensed and insured.
A discussion ensued in which the Board instructed District staff to seek two more proposals to be presented at the next Board meeting.
ADMINISTRATIVE & OPERATIONAL MATTERS

1.  Reminder: Ethics Training

Mr. Jerez reminded the Board that their ethics training was due December 31, 2025, and Mr. Silva would send reminders about the submittal.

BOARD MEMBER & STAFF CLOSING COMMENTS
There were no closing comments at this time.
ADJOURNMENT
There being no further business to come before the Board, a motion was made by Ms. Maseda, seconded by Mr. Cuenca and unanimously passed adjourning the Regular Board Meeting at 7:53 p.m.
