The other night I put a motion on the table that was laborious and long, but my reasons for the motion was to lay out the history of what has transpired over the last couple years.

Whereas the board of supervisor of Harbor Bay CDD after months of diligence concluded that area 1 would be appropriately remedied with Option 3 as proposed by Langan engineering.

Whereas the project was not funded at the time however the board proceeded to implement emergency and then interim repairs using settlement funds obtained from prior litigation.

Whereas in the November 2016 meeting the board of Supervisors authorized the implementation of the next interim phase of work as the contractor was completed the prior interim phase.

Whereas after the board reconvened in December having new board members this board of supervisor did not execute the agreement previously authorized.

Whereas the failure to proceed timely endangers the work plan previously outlined and accordingly based on Exhibit A, which is competent and substantial evidence, I motion that the board proceed immediately with the execution of the contract that the board previously approved

This motion was so that we continue forward with the prescribed repairs thus reducing our upland claims, vice kicking the can down the road one more time, it was defeated 3-2, IMO that means that vote result turned a blind eye to the facts as presented in the motion.

I am truly concerned that the over all costs for the rip-rap option has so many unintended consequences thus my paper, Exhibit A,  that was submitted into the minutes for the Jan 12th, 2017 meeting in the first place.

One commonly looks at something from a singular viewpoint. The Engineers are hired just to do that, I am trying to convey that the cost effectiveness must be an overall view.

I am concerned with the long term O&M of this community. My motivation is that no one in this community to have to pay more than we have to, or worse, twice.
