THIRD ORDER OF BUSINESS	Approval of Minutes of the February 4,
2026, Board of Supervisors Meeting
Mr. Flint: Next is the approval of the minutes from the February 4, 2026 meeting. Did the Board have any comments or corrections?
Mr. Qureshi: No.
Mr. Bailey: No.
Mr. Flint: Is there a motion to approve them?

FOURTH ORDER OF BUSINESS	Consideration	of	Resolution	2026-05
Certifying Series 2022, Phase 3/6 Project Complete
Mr. Flint: Item four is a resolution certifying the Series 2022 Phase 3/6 project complete. The Trust Indenture for the bond issue requires that once the project is complete, the Board adopt a resolution certifying that, which District Counsel prepared in conjunction with this. There's also a debt service reserve that is set up when the bonds are issued. The debt service reserve is intended to protect the bondholders in the event that there is a default. Those funds can be used to pay principal and interest, operating costs, other things. There is a release condition in the indenture, that once certain thresholds are met, a portion of the reserve is released and transferred into the Construction Fund. There will be a requisition prepared to requisition the released reserve funds. Those funds are there, because the developer, in this case, Lennar, constructed the project and contributed significant funds toward the project. The bonds only funded a portion of the construction cost. They incurred costs that were not requisitioned once the bonds were paid out. So now that the reserve funds have been released, there are funds that the engineer is putting together to requisition the remaining funds. But that's a side note.
Mr. Flint: Kristin, do you want to present the resolution?
Ms. Trucco: Sure. As George mentioned, there is a requirement in the Trust Indenture for the Series 2022 bonds for the Board to declare the Phase 3/6 project, which was financed with the 2022 bonds, complete. To do that, the Board relies on the engineer’s certificate, which is attached to the resolution, certifying that the project that was financed by the bonds is indeed
March 4, 2026	Tohoqua CDD

complete. There's an additional requirement in the indenture that the engineer’s certificate provide an assertion that the final cost to complete the project, exceeded the amount of assessments that were levied by the CDD, in order to repay that bond. You'll see that the Engineer's Report determined approximately $4.5 million was required to complete the Phase 3/6 project. We issued the bond and levied assessments for approximately $2.1 million. So that assertion is also made there. This will be subject to the engineer signing this certification, certifying that the project is complete. So today we're looking for a motion approving Resolution 2026-05, subject to the engineers sign off on that. Do you have any questions? If not, I need a motion.

FIFTH ORDER OF BUSINESS	Discussion of Street Parking
Mr. Flint: Next is Item 5, which was an issue that was brought up during public comment at the last meeting. We indicated that we would put the item on the agenda today. It's really a discussion item, as there were some concerns raised about street parking. There had been some communication, not from the CDD, but either from residents or members of the HOA Board with the city on the issue, subsequent to the last meeting. I think the concerns were probably community wide, but I think Phase 2 was raised as being a concern. We pulled the construction plans for Phase 2. There is a Parking Plan, which we verified. The city is the one responsible for making sure that what's constructed is consistent with the construction drawings. There is a Parking Plan that was part of the construction plans when Phase 2, for example, was constructed. There's also a regulatory Signage Plan. We haven't pulled it for the other phases, but we verified that the parking spots that are in place, are consistent with the Parking Plan. We also verified that the signage is consistent with the Signage Plan. I think the issue may be that there's a feeling that the signage is inadequate to delineate areas of No Parking. That is a separate issue from whether it was constructed properly and the proper signage was put in place. According to the plans, the signage that was required was installed. If there's a desire to install additional signage, to delineate areas of No Parking, I think that's probably the question that we're dealing with. Because the roads are owned by the City of St. Cloud, it's really a City of St. Cloud issue.
March 4, 2026	Tohoqua CDD

They're the ones that also enforce the No Parking. They have the police powers to enforce traffic regulations. The CDD doesn't have the power to install regulatory signage without the approval of the city. We also don't have the ability to enforce parking, speeding, stop signs, those sorts of things. If there's a desire for additional signage, I think our thought is that that would require the city's approval because they are regulatory signs. Kristin, you can also provide your input. I assume the CDD as another government entity, could either enter into an agreement or with the consent of the city, could install the signage. That would be a decision by the Board and also with the consent of the city or I assume the Master Association could volunteer to pay for that signage if it was an issue that the Master Association felt was important. I would say that the long-term ownership of the signage needs to be with the city. We can't have some signs owned and maintained by the city, some by the CDD, some by the HOA. That would make no sense. It's not that we're creating additional No Parking areas, we're just delineating the existing areas. So there really shouldn't be any additional enforcement required, because they already are obligated to enforce the No Parking areas. On that issue, if they are going to require some sort of additional agreement with somebody to enforce, my thought on that, is we're not adding any additional No Parking areas. We're just asking them to enforce the existing No Parking areas. Why would there be a need for an agreement? What they're getting at with that agreement, is an enhanced enforcement type of agreement. Typically, with enhanced enforcement, comes a fee for the enhanced enforcement. That's another issue, I guess. If the community felt strongly enough that they wanted enhanced enforcement on parking, you could enter into an agreement. They would likely want you to pay for that enhanced enforcement. My thought would be that they should enforce the No Parking that's on the existing construction drawings that the city approved, that they're obligated to enforce. It's their roads. It's not HOA roads or private roads. The entity that owns the private roads is asking them to come in and enforce something. So that's a lot, but anyway.
Ms. Trucco: You touched on the most important parts there. I know that from the residents, Mr. Buback, hopefully I'm pronouncing that correctly, he had forwarded us an email that he had with a representative at public works for the city. It looks like the city already has a plan for it, that’s set forth. If the HOA wants to request additional signage, then the city requires the HOA to enter into an agreement for the purchase, installation, and ongoing maintenance of that signage in the future. Then that email corresponds with the Public Works Department and
March 4, 2026	Tohoqua CDD

also indicated that the HOA may be required to enter into a separate agreement with the Police Department for that enhanced enforcement that George was mentioning. If you look at the Statute section for those types of agreements, there is the option for the city or county to request payment for those services. There have been some CDDs that entered into those types of agreements. The CDDs that I represent, we stay away from that. We've always argued that the residents here are already paying taxes for those basic traffic enforcement services. So that should be included. We were not asking for anything additional above and beyond what was already required by the Parking Plans that George mentioned. It really comes down to whether the CDD has an interest in approaching the city for feedback on potentially financing the purchase and installation of No Parking signs. Then we'll have to get their feedback on whether they require the CDD to enter into that ongoing maintenance agreement, which it sounds like to me from the email, is that they're requiring that of HOAs. We can go get additional feedback or if you want to wait on that, there may be an update on whether the HOA would be interested in it or not.
Mr. Flint: I'm sorry to interrupt, but what they're probably used to in regards to HOA's, is private roads. In that case, you would typically need to enter into an agreement and pay for any sort of enforcement within the community if the roads are private. But anyway, I'm sorry.
Ms. Trucco: If the roads were owned by the CDD, there is a process that's set forth in Chapter 190 of the Florida Statutes, that govern CDDs, that allow the CDD, if they own property, to go through a hearing process, adopt Parking and Towing Rules and contract with a towing vendor to enforce those. The issue that we have, is that the CDD doesn't own the roads.
Mr. Flint: There's a benefit to us not owning it. There's also a benefit to us owning it. The good thing for the community about the CDD not owning, is you're not basically paying taxes for roads and then having the CDD own the roads and then you're having to pay assessments. So that's a good part of it. The bad part is you're subject to the city's level of service on maintenance and you're also handicapped somewhat on your ability to enforce parking and those sorts of things.
Mr. Qureshi: Kristen, I have two follow up questions for you. One, you mentioned HOA's. In this area of Tohoqua, not Phase 5A, we have two HOAs plus a Master Association. Am I correct, Alan?
Ms. Calleja: You have five HOAs.
March 4, 2026	Tohoqua CDD

Mr. Qureshi: Five HOAs.
Mr. Flint: The townhomes each have a separate HOA. Then you have the Master Association.
Mr. Qureshi: The first thing is that the Master Association should work with the four HOAs first, to get their consent, before bringing the CDD into it. Because right now, if one HOA said, “Well, we don't want to do this,” then we are back to square one, at that point. So what enforcement are we talking about? This is only my opinion. I think the groundwork has to be done by the Master Association first, where they need to bring all four of those HOAs into a room and sit down and talk about this parking issue. They all have to agree before I think we bring the CDD into it. That's just my opinion. The two other Board Members might have a different opinion than that. That's just my opinion, but I am all for supporting that we need to enforce parking. Yes, but I think we need to get the initial work done first before we get the CDD into this.
Mr. Bailey: Just a clarification, you said regulatory signs is all that showed on the drawings. But is there a sign for the No Parking areas?
Mr. Flint: There's a Parking Plan. It's a separate sheet in the construction drawings that shows the parking areas.
Mr. Bailey: Is there some kind of designation sign that said No Parking. Mr. Flint: Well, you would think the Signage Plan would show one.
Mr. Bailey: Before we pay for parking.
Ms. Trucco: Yeah, I don’t think the city required it. It sounds to me like the city did not require No Parking signage from the developer.
Mr. Flint: They didn’t.
Mr. Bailey: There are No Parking signs in Phases 2 and 3 or any phases that I looked at.
Mr. Flint: We've had the same situation, like in the City of Orlando in another community. But in that case, the signage was consistent with the Sign Plan and the CDD owned the roads. In Storey Park, we installed No Parking signs with arrows to clearly define that you couldn't park in certain areas. Then we had an agreement with the towing company to enforce it.
Mr. Bailey: There's a separate sheet that shows No Parking and there's no designated wayfinding signage that says that. How is a person supposed to know you're not supposed to park? Yeah, the same way that Crossbury has nothing to do with the Board either, but everybody
March 4, 2026	Tohoqua CDD

I see gripes about the commercial vehicles along the road. Well, there's no signage that says you can't park here. So yeah, the whole area is lacking.
Ms. Trucco: We're preempted. We don't have police power. We have no traffic enforcement powers. If the CDD owned the roads, then we could adopt Parking and Towing Rules.
Mr. Flint: There’s a line between sign pollution and adequate signage. So where do you define that line? We're not in the middle of that. We're closer to where we don't have enough signs.
Mr. Bailey: No, I understand.
Mr. Flint: Yeah. The HOA process would be a good way to solicit community input. There's no action required by the CDD at this point. Really it's a discussion item and a direction to staff. There's a feeling like maybe the Master Association could take on the solicitation of community input via the four other associations and then at some point either come back to the CDD or the Master Association on its own could take it on and deal with the city directly.
Resident (Jerard Bubeck): Can I say something? Ms. Trucco: It's up to the Board.
Mr. Bailey: Go for it.
Ms. Trucco: Please state your name and address for the record.
Resident (Jerard Bubeck, Spring Shower Circle): My name is Mr. Jerard Buback and I live at 1997 Spring Shower Circle. We're trying to get a meeting with the city to see what their opinion is of us. I understand what you guys are doing. Basically, we just want signs up to distinguish No Parking areas and stuff. As far as enforcement, that would be something to see how the signs are effective. We're going to try to pursue the city and then we'll work with the Master Association. We do have contacts with them.
Mr. Flint: When you say we, it's you as a resident. Resident (Jerard Bubeck, Spring Shower Circle): Yes. Mr. Flint: Okay.
Resident (Jerard Bubeck, Spring Shower Circle): There is a group of three or four residents who initiated that email. He's been very involved in that and trying to arrange a meeting with the city. We'll clarify that with the city and then pursue that with the Master Association. We appreciate your consideration.
March 4, 2026	Tohoqua CDD

Mr. Qureshi: Just to answer, Jerard, if you're going to have the meeting with the city, what you need to really take with you, is Signage Plan, where the city should be putting up the signage first, before we can even go any further. I think you need to press the city from the resident point of view, that they need to put that signage up first. Am I right, George?
Ms. Trucco: I think Alan will say that there's no required signage, but there is a Parking Plan. I think they mentioned that there was a Parking Plan that was included as part of the Site Development Plan. Right?
Mr. Flint: Yes and there's a Signage Plan.
Ms. Trucco: Oh, and there's a signage plan, but the Signage Plan doesn't include No Parking signs.
Resident (Jerard Bubeck, Spring Shower Circle): Correct. Ms. Trucco: Alan, do you have a copy of the Parking Plan?
Mr. Scheerer: Yeah, I took it right out of the civil drawings, that basically outlines everything in Phase 2. How many parking spaces are supposed to be included. I was checking signs this morning.
Resident (Jerard Bubeck, Spring Shower Circle): That's an issue. You have to determine where the signs would go, how many there would be, that type of thing, which was not included in the plans, which we understand.
Mr. Scheerer: Yes, sir.
Mr. Flint: Okay. Well, any further discussion on that at this point? Mr. Scheerer: I have an electronic one too, if I need to email it.
Mr. Qureshi: If you could.
Mr. Flint: That's just Phase 2. Each phase was separately permitted, so there would be a separate set of drawings. They're not necessarily consistent from phase to phase, but we reviewed that phase.
Mr. Scheerer: You have to eliminate Cross Prairie Parkway, because they have designated parallel parking and there is designated parallel parking throughout the community. Some of the internal roads, you'll see, for example, they're identifying maybe 17 or 18 spaces. But again, there's no Sign Plan to delineate the No Parking from where parking is allowed. As George said, arrowhead in arrowhead, double arrow in the middle is required. But none of that exists. There is a Parking Plan, but there's No Parking Plan.
March 4, 2026	Tohoqua CDD

Mr. Qureshi: Drawings were passed or approved based upon no signage?
Mr. Scheerer: All I can tell you is I have a set of civil drawings. Those drawings were approved and they did not include No Parking signs.
Mr. Qureshi: Wow.
Mr. Scheerer: But as George alluded to, we have a District in Orlando where they had the same thing, the same document that you looked at. But we own the road. We had a company come in and design the No Parking signs.
Mr. Flint: Actually, I think we had the District Engineer do it.
Mr. Scheerer: We had Fausnight Stripe & Line come out and take a look at it. The District Engineer approved all of the other parking and No Parking. But we had a company come in, based on this type of a plan and tell us how much it's going to cost to install the No Parking signs.
Mr. Qureshi: The difference from that community to this one, was that CDD owned the roads there?
Mr. Scheerer: We own the roads there. We don't own the roads here Mr. Flint: But the plans are approved.
Mr. Scheerer: Yeah.
Mr. Flint: In that case, it was the City of Orlando. Mr. Scheerer: Okay.
Mr. Flint: Is there any other discussion from the Board or action at this time? Mr. Qureshi: No.
Mr. Flint: Okay.

SIXTH ORDER OF BUSINESS	Approval	of	Landscape	Maintenance
Request for Proposal Manual
Mr. Flint: Item six, I believe we mentioned at the last meeting that we would be coming back to the Board with a Request for Proposal (RFP) for landscape maintenance. Typically, as communities like this develop out, as a new phase comes on, you typically do a Change Order, a new agreement with your existing provider. There's a need, usually at a minimum at the end, to make sure that the pricing that's in those contracts is competitive, because it becomes additive over time. For budget purposes, we believe it's prudent to go ahead and issue the RFP. We're
March 4, 2026	Tohoqua CDD

trying to do it so that we have the results of the bidding in time to prepare the Proposed Budget for next fiscal year. I do have maps here. Alan, do you want to present the RFP to the Board?
Mr. Scheerer: As George said, there is a timeline for the RFP to be issued. On March 13th, the RFP will be available to the general public. We'll have a list of vendors that we will notify, letting them know that the RFP is available and they can call our office and get a downloaded version of the RFP. That begins on March 13th. From March 13th through April 27th, anybody requesting a site visit can contact me and I'll meet them onsite. We can drive the property if they have just some generic questions, because I'm not allowed to answer any specific questions. That would need to be done in writing. As you'll see, on April 15, 2026, the deadline for questions in writing only expires. So that means anytime between the 13th and the 27th, they can come up and submit questions in writing to the office. Then an addendum will be provided to all proposers that requested the RFP. The bid opening is set for April 27th at 11:00 a.m. That will be in our office and they'll open all of the bids and tally up the cost for the project. There is a one-year contract that will be issued with an option for four additional extensions in this RFP. It could be up to a five-year agreement, so you won't have to do it again for five more years. Then the evaluation process is scheduled for May 6th.
Mr. Flint: If you look at Page 12 of the RFP or Page 36 of the PDF on your iPad, the RFP also includes evaluation criteria. What we try to avoid, is a situation where you're required to select a low bidder. You don't always want to have to select the low-cost bid. What this evaluation criteria allows you to do, is to pick the bid that's in the best interest of the District. These criteria and the points that are assigned, can be modified by the Board if you believe that one might be more important than how we've weighted it. But the five factors that we've included, the first one's completeness of the proposal, that's five points. The second one is the contractor's experience, which is 25 points. Item 3 is the qualifications of the key personnel that are indicated as being involved in the project. Item 4 has to do with the machinery, equipment and manpower, their ability to provide the service. Then Item 5 is cost, which is 25 points. Those all add up to 100 points. In this scenario, the cost is only 25% of the total evaluation criteria. This makes sure that you're selecting the most qualified competitive bid.
Mr. Scheerer: Also included of course, is the scope of services, what we expect them to perform, how many cuts and your fertile pest application timeframes throughout the course of the year. There will also be a mulch component to that. Probably the biggest thing to look at
March 4, 2026	Tohoqua CDD

when you look at the map, is there is a futures area, which basically covers Phase 8. As you know, there are portions of Phase 8 that are going to be coming online at some point. That includes the big Pond 27, which is the main outfall for all of the stormwater on this side of the community. There are some common areas and there are some rights-of-way (ROW) between the sidewalk and curb. Southbury will eventually connect all the way from that big Pond 27 to Macy Island Road, right over here. There will be some city owned, CDD maintained ROWs and maybe some medians. I think somebody had said maybe it was county, not city, but the engineer had mentioned something like that. But we'll have to look at that. We've provided in the fee summary schedule, a place where they can total up everything they fill for the future. Those areas are highlighted on the map. It's like a lavender and a purple color on the map. They will be asked to do that, based on a link that will be provided to them that have the landscape and irrigation drawings for Phases 8A and 8B, since that area is not quite complete.
Mr. Knight: Southbury is county, not city. Mr. Scheerer: Oh, it is county.
Mr. Knight: Yes.
Mr. Scheerer: Okay.
Mr. Knight: I don't know that it matters for this discussion, but it is the county.
Mr. Flint: Okay. Are there any questions or comments from the Board on the RFP or the map or the evaluation criteria? Okay. We always like to get the Board to approve the form of the RFP, if possible, before we issue it. That gives us more standing when those bids are received and evaluated, because you have approved the evaluation criteria and the form of the RFP. If there are no questions or discussion on the RFP, is there a motion to approve it?

Field Manager’s Report
Review of Phase 5 Pond Analysis Report
Mr. Flint: Field Manager's Report. Alan, I know that we have a guest here today.
Mr. Scheerer: Yeah, we do. Over the past year we've been battling the chemical imbalance in the Phase 5 Tohoqua Reserve pond. We switched vendors from Sunshine Land and brought in Applied Aquatic. With me today is Mr. Telly Smith with Applied Aquatic. Included in your agenda package is chemical analysis from SePRO. Telly is going to walk you through what was determined to be the conditions of the water at the time that this report was done. I know the date was I think in December, but we didn't get the results for a little while, which was why there's a delay in presenting this to the Board.
Mr. Smith: Good morning. Everybody has a copy of this. Mr. Scheerer: It should be in your agenda.
Mr. Smith: We did a Water Quality Analysis on the Phase 5 pond. Typically, it does two things. It tests for phosphates, nitrogen, pH, all of the normal stuff that you would test in the water and also Algae IV. Originally, when we started working on this pond, we had a blue green algae bloom, which is not good. It took us a while to get that under control. We were able to do that within, I'd say, four to six weeks. We got it to a manageable level. We are still fighting some filamentous algae in that pond and that will be most likely, just because it's a stormwater pond and stormwater ponds have algae. This Water Quality Analysis Report was done by SePRO. They're a company that we work hand in hand with. They essentially are the only company in our industry that does this type of Water Quality Analysis and algae ID. It's very, we're very fortunate to have them to do this. I'll go over really quick what our findings were. The only algae that we identified at the time, was in October. We actually started working on the pond, I believe in August. We pulled the samples in October. The algae, I believe, was for filamentous algae, which is mat forming algae. That's not alarming. It's a little unsightly. It's not aesthetically pleasing, but it's not harmful or toxic in any way, so that was good actually. The next thing that we looked at, was the pH of the water, which was neutral. It was good. The conductivity was
March 4, 2026	Tohoqua CDD

good. Alkalinity was good. Hardness was fair, moderate and that's fine. The turbidity was moderate and that's normal. These are all normal numbers for stormwater ponds. The nutrients results is where it gets kind of bad. I don't have any other way to put it. The first test was the total phosphorus. That came back as 355 parts per million, which is very, very high. That's where that really bad algae was coming from and that's what was creating this continuous filamentous algae problem. The free reactive phosphorus was high, but not anything crazy high. That's normal for these ponds. The nitrogen was actually moderate, which surprised me. The nitrates were low, which also surprised me. Total nitrogen was moderate, which is good. That's a good thing. The only thing we're battling here, the main thing that we're battling in this pond, is the total phosphorus levels. That's the main driver for algae blooms in these ponds. Chlorophyll was, was very high. I apologize; I didn't do my research on the Chlorophyll. I don't think that has any bearing on the algal bloom that we're fighting. I'll look into that, but I don't believe that's a huge problem or anything to worry about in this pond. Like I said, the main thing that we need to worry about, are the total phosphorus levels. Alan, do you want me to go over what my recommendations are?
Mr. Scheerer: Yeah, because there is a proposal following this report that we can discuss with the Board and see if they want to move forward with the additional work to try to get this under control.
Mr. Smith: We've determined that there is a very high phosphorus level in the pond and there are ways to mitigate that. There are products available in our industry to mitigate phosphorus or basically bind the phosphorus that's currently in the water. We would use a product named EutroSORB-WC. It's a liquid product that has a Lanthanum active ingredient in it that binds phosphorous in the water. It binds it and makes it unavailable for the algae to utilize for food to grow. It does bind it forever in the water, but it does not prevent any new phosphorus from coming in, whatever the source may be, whether it's rainfall, runoff from the roads, fertilizer, which I don't think you guys use fertilizers near the ponds here anyways. There are certain areas of the state where these ponds are just super high in phosphorus and their basically geographical location is what it boils down to. Some are higher than others. This obviously has a high influx of phosphorus. In order for us to mitigate that, we would do a continuous maintenance of this pond with another product called SeClear-G, that helps us find phosphorus. We have done this in other areas that we work with, like Remington for instance, We've done the
March 4, 2026	Tohoqua CDD

SeClear-G prescription and it worked very well. We had some really bad ponds in that area in that CDD as well, that we were able to manage and it turned around 180 degrees. It was very impressive. So that's the plan, to do an initial treatment with EutroSORB to reduce the phosphorus and bind it. There would also be ongoing maintenance with Chelated Coppers for the algae blooms and filamentous algae that will continue to happen. Then doing the SeClear-G, which reduces the phosphorus levels in the ponds long term. That's how we continue to keep that phosphorus level down. With that being said, I believe that's it. Oh, the frequency of maintenance is something that we probably need to talk about too. We have been in this pond a lot over the last course of six months or so and we hope to reduce that number of visits. We were there weekly for a while, back and forth with Chelated Coppers and Hydrogen Dioxide, Parasitic Acid, which is basically peroxide, every week in this pond, just to keep it under control. We finally got it down to a swimming pool level. We back our treatments off every two weeks and hopefully in the future, if this goes smoothly, we can reduce those visits to monthly, because there is a lot of traffic in that pond, over a course of short period of time. So that would be the plan. Are there any other things that you think I can discuss or do you guys have any questions?
Mr. Qureshi: Telly, a quick question for you. What is the reason that we are having so much issue with that pond? Is that because of how the water is flowing or it is because something is getting into the pond? What is the reason? You mentioned that you are coming every two weeks or so because there's an issue there. So, what is the major cause?
Mr. Smith: That's the million-dollar question. That's the question that I can’t answer. I'm the guy that deals with the problem once it happens and try to mitigate it and maintain it. In these stormwater ponds, there are so many different variables. As far as phosphorous getting into the pond, there are so many sources. It could just be the natural soil that the pond was dug in, before, this land was used for other things back before this development was created. Who knows? It's so funny how these ponds work. We can have two ponds identical in size within a quarter or a third of a mile from each other. One is a horrible problem child that we're always fighting, while the pond right across the street is beautiful and doesn't have the same amount of phosphorus in it that Pond A does. It's very hard to say. I would say the soil that was there when it was dug, was just phosphorous rich. Also, stormwater runoff probably. So that's just my guess. I don't have an exact answer.
Mr. Qureshi: I do believe this pond is connected to other ponds. Correct?
March 4, 2026	Tohoqua CDD

Mr. Smith: It may be connected. Mr. Scheerer: Yes.
Mr. Qureshi: Do you maintain the other ponds also? Mr. Smith: No, sir.
Mr. Qureshi: Okay.
Mr. Scheerer: You don’t have that issue. Your pond connects across Cross Prairie Parkway to the 25B pond. Then there's the 25A pond, which discharges into Pond 27, which is the long pond on Southbury Drive. They're all interconnected, but they don't have the same type of issue that the Tohoqua Reserve pond has. Pond 25A has been sprayed, so the cattails are dying. Pond 25B was harvested and hand removed and that's pretty clean. Like Telly says, we'll get occasional filamentous algae on that pond, the floating algae, but that's nothing like the blue green algae that was experienced in Tohoqua Reserve.
Mr. Flint: We had the same company, Sunshine Land Management, maintaining all of the ponds. The reason we brought in Applied Aquatic, is that Sunshine Land Management wasn't addressing the problems in your Phase 5 pond. It's not something that they're doing that's causing that pond to be worse than the other ponds. We brought them in to figure out a solution to deal with the problem that was already there.
Mr. Scheerer: Correct.
Mr. Flint: I guess a question that I would have, is if we're using this chemical that's binding that phosphorus, is it possible in the future, that the phosphorus issue will go away or diminish and we don't have to do that ongoing treatment? You probably don't know the answer. But that would be the question. Then would we continue to sample and analyze the water to make sure that we're not continuing to do an expensive treatment when the problem is no longer there?
Mr. Smith: That's a really good question. I can't give you a definitive answer on that, but I can tell you from 25 years of experience, the phosphorus is always going to be there. We treat thousands of ponds throughout the State of Florida and I can put all of the problem child ponds in one hand and they have been problem child for 25 years and we've tried to fix them. The only thing that we can do, I'm not going to say this is a band-aid by any means, but this is the only tool that we have in our toolbox to mitigate this phosphorus. Phosphorus is the number one problem and these are the only two tools that we have, to help mitigate that phosphorus level and
March 4, 2026	Tohoqua CDD

to reduce the phosphorus level, which in turn reduces that toxic or blue green algae bloom that we have. I feel it is going to be a long-term issue. Now could there be a product or something comes out in the future, to help with this issue even further? Maybe, possibly. But this product has been around a long time. It's just formulated in different ways. Lanthanum has been around a long time. The ongoing maintenance is actually pretty affordable compared to that initial startup. The initial startup is a little pricey. But that ongoing maintenance is relatively cheap and the SeClear-G product that I was speaking of, is not that expensive at all. It's pretty affordable. It doesn't really change the cost and the maintenance drastically. It just turns it into a normal stormwater pond.
Mr. Qureshi: Telly, one thing that I'm going to ask you. Alan has my email. Can you send me actually that what you have found so far in the pond. I will most probably call you later on, to invite you to maybe talk to the residents who live around the pond, to explain exactly what is going on there. Because that pond has been very much, just like you said, it's a problem child for you.
Mr. Smith: Yes.
Mr. Qureshi: It's also a problem child for us, because I actually live there. Mr. Smith: Okay.
Mr. Qureshi: Telly actually lives on the pond. Mr. Smith: It's impressive.
Mr. Flint: The reports are in the agenda.
Mr. Smith: Yes, we do have the results. I believe you have them and Alan can share those with you. What I would like to do, is if we do end up doing this for you guys, we'll pull more water quality analysis samples maybe later this year, in July or August, somewhere in that timeframe.
Mr. Qureshi: On a positive note, though, from three years from now, the pond quality, in my opinion, has improved quite a bit. Whatever you guys are doing, keep doing it. Hopefully it will get where we need to be. Three years ago, it was really bad, especially in certain times of the year.
Mr. Smith: It's not been easy to keep up with it. I actually just went and did a site visit right before I came here. We treated it a week and a half ago. It's due for another treatment next
March 4, 2026	Tohoqua CDD

week. We're happy to treat this pond every two weeks. That's really the only magic we have, this frequency of maintenance. You have to stay on them or they'll just get away from you.
Mr. Flint: Is anything you're seeing in the Water Quality Analysis, something that would be addressed by aeration?
Mr. Smith: No sir. Aeration is in my opinion and of course I'm not an aeration professional, this is my opinion from 25 years of experience in the business, aeration is utilized when you're having dissolved oxygen problems. If you're having chronic fish kills and your aquatic control company is taking samples of this water, saying that your nutrient level is really low and they need to put some aeration to increase the dissolved oxygen levels or even fountains, fountains don't really do much for these ponds either. They're aesthetically pleasing and they do aerate the area right around the fountain. The water goes up and falls back down. I am a proponent of aeration. I just don't feel like it's needed in this pond. Honestly in some cases, when I've seen these ponds where aeration's been installed, the algae actually get worse. I would not recommend that, personally.
Mr. Qureshi: Thank you.

Consideration of Aquatic Plant Agreement with Applied Aquatic
Mr. Scheerer: There's a follow up proposal with Applied Aquatic. The biggest hit on this is the initial startup charge. The initial startup charge is $5,985, at the start of the work and then after that it just becomes a regular maintenance fee of $895 per month. Telly can explain what's involved with the startup charge.
Mr. Smith: Yeah. On the proposal and for us to continue maintenance, this is a full scope proposal, as far as the scope of work. It is shoreline, grass and brush control. It is immersed vegetation control. That's your cattails, your lily pads, things of that nature, floating vegetation, all sorts of floating vegetation, filamentous algae control, submerged vegetation control and phosphorus reduction, are also included. The phosphorus reduction is the main portion of that initial startup. That's what you're paying for, that Nutrasorb product that will be applied. It is just an expensive product. That cost is 90% product, to get it started. Now the maintenance, I would say is a little elevated for a stormwater pond of that size. But it's due to the fact of frequency of maintenance that we're going to have to be in there. We're going to have to be in there quite often
March 4, 2026	Tohoqua CDD

to keep this thing under control. But product is your main cost, because the labor and the time is not that big of a deal in this situation. It's product. But it does work. Is that clear enough now?
Mr. Scheerer: Yeah, I think so. But we're trying to get a handle on this and based on the results that SePRO provided, they gave him some direction as to how they need to approach this pond in order to get this phosphorus under control. This is an Applied Aquatics proposal to go ahead and start that and then continue to do the ongoing maintenance. I think Telly's approach with doing another sample in July, is somewhere in there, because that's our hot months and we'll see if there's a chemical change in that come June and July.
Mr. Smith: Yeah, I think once we get started, give it some time, then we can do a side-by-side comparison and see if we need to increase the rates of the SeClear-G that we're applying on the monthly basis. SePRO is a really good company about backing up their prescriptions. This is a detailed prescription from SePRO. I can put this prescription together myself just as easily. But I like using SePRO’s prescriptions, because if we have an issue and if we do that sampling and then the phosphorus levels didn't reduce the way we want them to, then I can go back to SePRO and say, “Hey, this treatment didn't do exactly what we were hoping to do.” A lot of times they will help us out with some product to retreat or do another application.
Mr. Flint: Are there any questions on the proposal? Is there a motion to approve it?

Mr. Flint: Anything else, Alan?
Mr. Scheerer: Yeah, just a couple things to follow up. As you know, we had a nice freeze here recently. You're seeing a lot of brown plants. I'm working with United Land currently. They've given me a plant replacement budget per section, which we're working through. The hardest hit plants are the Dwarf Firebush, Dwarf Ixora and maybe some Arboricola Trinettes. We're going to be looking at that after next week. We want to give it four to six weeks from the last time we talked. You'll probably see some of this plant material start to disappear. They wanted to start on it this week and I asked them, “Please don't do that.” I want to make sure that I had a chance to discuss that with the Board and the residents at the meeting and let you know what our plan of attack is going to be. You'll probably see some bare spots. We're going to try to
March 4, 2026	Tohoqua CDD

focus on those bare spots and see what we can go ahead and immediately replace, once we pull them out, the high-profile areas. I'm not saying that everything isn't important, but if you're coming in off of Tohoqua Boulevard or Cross Prairie Parkway or something like that, we want to make sure that whatever we pull out, we can go ahead and fill with a colder tolerant plant going forward. Everybody that isn't installing landscaping right now, are using the Arboricola Trinettes, the Dward Ixoras, the Dwarf Firebush, which is one of my favorite plants, because it's beautiful, it doesn't get too big, but it was hit hard by this freeze. We're going to look at a long-term solution to this. You can see what survived out here, so we may try to emulate that. One of the things that you'll probably notice, is our perennial peanut in the parking lot, which was pretty amazing. It looked really good. It took a hard hit as well. We'll be looking at some of that ground cover replacement that survive anything in the near future, that we might have for a long-term frost. I know we're getting ready to hopefully open the new 4C amenity. There's been a lot of work going on with that, since we met with Pulte and I’m sure that Marcia has got something to add to that and where we stand.
Ms. Calleja: We're much closer now. Right now, we're working on the Internet. Spectrum did come last week and they finally finished installing it. This week we're working on connecting the two buildings for the access cards to work. That's really the last piece of the puzzle. We're really a lot closer. We also have some signage that's going to go in this week with the Tohoqua logo, with some of the rules, the gym rules, the gate rules. The insurance is done. Our pool permit is done. We're real close. I would say probably in the coming days, pending the result today, because we actually have a vendor here today trying to connect the two buildings. So hopefully by the next meeting.
Mr. Qureshi: Marcia, will the access card for this work also on that? Ms. Calleja: Yes.
Mr. Scheerer: Yeah, we don't want to issue you two or three just to try to get in here. Mr. Qureshi: I don’t need any. I can just jump the fence.
Mr. Scheerer: You can only jump the playground fence, because it's only 3 feet. I want to see that, by the way.
Mr. Qureshi: You got it.

Amenity Manager’s Report
March 4, 2026	Tohoqua CDD

Mr. Calleja: I’ll go right into the Amenity Report, which is the next item on the agenda. We do have the events and the usage report. We had another successful Zumba session out here in the parking lot. We're planning to bring that back more often. We also had a beer, wine and cheese event. It didn't make it to the agenda, because we sent the report prior to the event. But that was on Friday. That was another nice event.

Consideration of Agreement for Polling Place
Mr. Calleja: The other item that you'll see, is the agreement to use the Clubhouse as a polling place. The Supervisor of Elections came to meet with Joanna and I. They would like to use this as a polling place for the primary election and general election. One of their goals is to use this only for the Tohoqua community, just because of the size, which I thought was really nice. They're working towards that goal right now. I believe it would be here, but their goal is to just support the Tohoqua community, which I thought was really nice. They did include the agreement in there. They would also provide their certificate of insurance, adding the District as an additional insurer. They're also going to pay the rental fee for the Clubhouse, just as other people would be required to. We have done that at other Districts. It is pretty successful and it's very convenient for the members of the community.
Mr. Flint: Are there any questions on that? I think it's a convenience for the community. Mr. Qureshi: Oh, I think it's a great idea. An excellent idea.
Mr. Flint: Is there a motion to approve the agreement with the Supervisor of Elections?

Mr. Flint: Anything else, Marcia? Ms. Calleja: That's all I have.

District Manager’s Report
Approval of Check Register
Mr. Flint: Under the District Manager’s Report, you have approval of the Check Register, which is in your agenda. This is for the General Fund and the Board compensation from January 26th through February 23rd, in the amount of $299,699.33. Anywhere you see Tohoqua CDD,
March 4, 2026	Tohoqua CDD

care of US Bank, are transfers of the debt service assessment revenue that we receive from the Tax Collector to the Trustee. You can see a significant amount of the Check Register is the movement of the debt service assessment revenue. Are there any questions on the Check Register?
Mr. Qureshi: No.
Mr. Flint: Is there a motion to approve it?

Balance Sheet and Income Statement
Mr. Flint: You also have the Unaudited Financials through January 31, 2025. You have the Combined Balance Sheet with the General Fund, Debt Service Funds, Capital Project Funds and capital reserve. Then you have the Statements of Revenue and Expenditures for each fund. No action is required by the Board on these, but if you have any questions, we can discuss them.
Mr. Qureshi: No.
Mr. Flint: Okay. Hearing none.

Report on the Audit of the Financial Statements
Opinions
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the governmental activities and each major fund of Tohoqua Community Development District, City of St. Cloud, Florida (“District”) as of and for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2025, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the District’s basic financial statements as listed in the table of contents.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the respective financial position of the governmental activities, and each major fund of the District as of September 30, 2025, and the respective changes in financial position, thereof for the fiscal year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinions
We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAS) and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are required to be independent of the District and to meet our other ethical responsibilities, in accordance with the relevant ethical requirements relating to our audit. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinions.
Responsibilities of Management for the Financial Statements
The District’s management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; and for the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, management is required to evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the District’s ability to continue as a going concern for twelve months beyond the financial statement date, including any currently known information that may raise substantial doubt shortly thereafter.
Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinions. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not absolute assurance and therefore is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with GAAS will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Misstatements are considered material if there is a substantial likelihood that, individually or in the aggregate, they would influence the judgment made by a reasonable user based on the financial statements.
In performing an audit in accordance with GAAS, we:
Exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit.
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, and design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks. Such procedures include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.
Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the District’s internal control. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed.
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluate the overall presentation of the financial statements.
Conclude whether, in our judgment, there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the District’s ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.
We are required to communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit, significant audit findings, and certain internal control–related matters that we identified during the audit.
Required Supplementary Information
Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that the management’s discussion and analysis be presented to supplement the basic financial statements. Such information is the responsibility of management and, although not a part of the basic financial statements, is required by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board, who considers it to be an essential part of financial reporting for placing the basic financial statements in an appropriate operational, economic, or historical context. We have applied certain limited procedures to the required supplementary information in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, which consisted of inquiries of management about the methods of preparing the information and comparing the information for consistency with management’s responses to our inquiries, the basic financial statements, and other knowledge we obtained during our audit of the basic financial statements. We do not express an opinion or provide any assurance on the information because the limited procedures do not provide us with sufficient evidence to express an opinion or provide any assurance.
Other Information Included in the Financial Report
Management is responsible for the other information included in the financial report. The other information comprises the information for compliance with Section 218.39(3)(c), Florida Statutes but does not include the financial statements and our auditor's report thereon. Our opinions on the financial statements do not cover the other information, and we do not express an opinion or any form of assurance thereon. In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and consider whether a material inconsistency exists between the other information and the financial statements, or the other information otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work performed, we conclude that an uncorrected material misstatement of the other information exists, we are required to describe it in our report.
Other Reporting Required by Government Auditing Standards
In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated March 6, 2026, on our consideration of the District’s internal control over financial reporting and on our tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, grant agreements and other matters. The purpose of that report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over financial reporting and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the effectiveness of the District’s internal control over financial reporting or on compliance. That report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering the District’s internal control over financial reporting and compliance.

March 6, 2026

OVERVIEW OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

This discussion and analysis are intended to serve as the introduction to the District’s financial statements. The District’s basic financial statements are comprised of three components: 1) government-wide financial statements, 2) fund financial statements, and 3) notes to the financial statements. This report also contains other supplementary information in addition to the basic financial statements themselves.

Government-Wide Financial Statements
The government-wide financial statements are designed to provide readers with a broad overview of the District’s finances, in a manner similar to a private-sector business.

The statement of net position presents information on all the District’s assets, deferred outflows of resources, liabilities, and deferred inflows of resources with the residual amount being reported as net position. Over time, increases or decreases in net position may serve as a useful indicator of whether the financial position of the District is improving or deteriorating.

The statement of activities presents information showing how the government’s net position changed during the most recent fiscal year. All changes in net position are reported as soon as the underlying event giving rise to the change occurs, regardless of the timing of related cash flows. Thus, revenues and expenses are reported in this statement for some items that will only result in cash flows in future fiscal periods.

The government-wide financial statements include all governmental activities that are principally supported by assessments. The District does not have any business-type activities. The governmental activities of the District include the general government (management) maintenance and recreation functions.

Fund Financial Statements
A fund is a grouping of related accounts that is used to maintain control over resources that have been segregated for specific activities or objectives. The District, like other state and local governments, uses fund accounting to ensure and demonstrate compliance with finance-related legal requirements. The District has one fund category: governmental funds.
OVERVIEW OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

Governmental Funds
Governmental funds are used to account for essentially the same functions reported as governmental activities in the government-wide financial statements. However, unlike the government-wide financial statements, governmental fund financial statements focus on near-term inflows and outflows of spendable resources, as well as on balances of spendable resources available at the end of the fiscal year. Such information may be useful in evaluating a District’s near-term financing requirements.

Because the focus of governmental funds is narrower than that of the government-wide financial statements, it is useful to compare the information presented for governmental funds with similar information presented for governmental activities in the government-wide financial statements. By doing so, readers may better understand the long-term impact of the District’s near-term financing decisions. Both the governmental fund balance sheet and the governmental fund statement of revenues, expenditures, and changes in fund balance provide a reconciliation to facilitate this comparison between governmental funds and governmental activities.

The District maintains three governmental funds for external reporting. Information is presented separately in the governmental fund balance sheet and the governmental fund statement of revenues, expenditures, and changes in fund balances for the general fund, debt service fund and capital projects fund, all of which are considered major funds.

The District adopts an annual appropriated budget for its general fund. A budgetary comparison schedule has been provided for the general fund to demonstrate compliance with the budget.

Notes to the Financial Statements
The notes provide additional information that is essential to a full understanding of the data provided in the basic financial statements.

GOVERNMENT-WIDE FINANCIAL ANALYSIS
As noted earlier, net position may serve over time as a useful indicator of an entity’s financial position. In the case of the District, assets exceeded liabilities at the close of the fiscal year ended September 30, 2025.

Key components of the District’s net position are reflected in the following table:
NET POSITION SEPTEMBER 30,
	2025	2024	
Current and other assets	$	2,090,186	$	7,418,232	
Capital assets, net of depreciation	18,553,920	12,031,268	
Total assets	20,644,106	19,449,500	
Current liabilities	447,843	359,118	
Long-term liabilities	17,553,828	17,874,997	
Total liabilities	18,001,671	18,234,115	
Net position			

Net investment in capital assets	1,052,097	(115,769)	
Restricted	861,791	789,295	
Unrestricted	728,547	541,859	
Total net position	
$	2,642,435	$	1,215,385	
The District’s net position reflects its investment in	capital assets (e.g. land, land improvements, and	
infrastructure) less any related debt used to acquire those assets that is still outstanding. These assets are used to provide services to residents; consequently, these assets are not available for future spending. Although the District’s investment in capital assets is reported net of related debt, it should be noted that the resources needed to repay this debt must be provided from other sources, since the capital assets themselves cannot be used to liquidate these liabilities.
GOVERNMENT-WIDE FINANCIAL ANALYSIS (Continued)

The restricted portion of the District’s net position represents resources that are subject to external restrictions on how they may be used. The remaining balance of unrestricted net position may be used to meet the District’s other obligations.

The District’s net position increased during the most recent fiscal year. The majority of the increase represents the extent to which ongoing program revenues exceeded the cost of operations.

Key elements of the change in net position are reflected in the following table:
CHANGES IN NET POSITION

Revenues:

Net position - beginning	1,215,385	1,192,590	
Net position - ending	$	2,642,435	$	1,215,385	
As noted above and in the statement of activities, the cost of all governmental activities during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2025, was $2,552,393. The costs of the District’s activities were primarily funded by program revenues. Program revenues of the District are comprised of assessments, Developer contributions, investment income, and miscellaneous revenue in the current fiscal year. The increase in revenues is due to an increase in assessments, Developer contributions, and interest income. The increase in expenses is due to the increase in maintenance and operations costs.

GENERAL BUDGETING HIGHLIGHTS

An operating budget was adopted and maintained by the governing board for the District pursuant to the requirements of Florida Statutes. The budget is adopted using the same basis of accounting that is used in preparation of the fund financial statements. The legal level of budgetary control, the level at which expenditures may not exceed budget, is in the aggregate. Any budget amendments that increase the aggregate budgeted appropriations must be approved by the Board of Supervisors. Actual general fund expenditures did not exceed appropriations for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2025.
CAPITAL ASSETS AND DEBT ADMINISTRATION

Capital Assets
At September 30, 2025, the District had $18,553,920 invested in capital assets for its governmental activities. No depreciation has been taken as the infrastructure improvements are under construction. More detailed information about the District’s capital assets is presented in the notes of the financial statements.

Capital Debt
At September 30, 2025, the District had $17,525,000 in Bonds outstanding for its governmental activities. More detailed information about the District’s capital debt is presented in the notes of the financial statements.

ECONOMIC FACTORS AND NEXT YEAR’S BUDGETS AND OTHER EVENTS

It is anticipated that the general operations of the District will continue to increase as the District is built out.

Subsequent to fiscal year end, the District issued $3,880,000 of Special Assessment Revenue Bonds, Series 2025, consisting of multiple term bonds with due dates ranging from May 1, 2030 - May 1, 2055 and fixed interest rates ranging from 4% to 5.5%.The Bonds were issued to finance the acquisition and construction of certain improvements for the benefit of the District.

TOHOQUA COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT CITY OF ST. CLOUD, FLORIDA
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 – NATURE OF ORGANIZATION AND REPORTING ENTITY

Tohoqua Community Development District ("the District") was created on August 14, 2017 pursuant to the Uniform Community Development District Act of 1980, otherwise known as Chapter 190, Florida Statutes, by Osceola County Ordinance 2017-57, subsequently annexed into the City of St. Cloud on May 24, 2018 by Ordinance 2017-53, and expanded and contracted by Ordinance 2024-15 on February 19, 2024. The Act provides among other things, the power to manage basic services for community development, power to borrow money and issue bonds, and to levy and assess non-ad valorem assessments for the financing and delivery of capital infrastructure.
The District was established for the purposes of financing and managing the acquisition, construction, maintenance and operation of a portion of the infrastructure necessary for community development within the District.

The District is governed by the Board of Supervisors ("the District") which is composed of five members. The Supervisors are elected by landowners of the District. The Board of Supervisors of the District exercise all powers granted to the District pursuant to Chapter 190, Florida Statutes. Two Board members are affiliated with Tohoqua Development Group, LLC and one board member is affiliated with Pulte Homes, (together, the “Developers”) as of September 30, 2025.

The District has the final responsibility for:
Assessing and levying maintenance taxes and special assessments.
Approving budgets.
Exercising control over facilities and properties.
Controlling the use of funds generated by the District.
Approving the hiring and firing of key personnel.
Financing improvements.
The financial statements were prepared in accordance with Governmental Accounting Standards Board (“GASB”) Statements. Under the provisions of those standards, the financial reporting entity consists of the primary government, organizations for which the Board of Supervisors is considered to be financially accountable and other organizations for which the nature and significance of their relationship with the District are such that, if excluded, the financial statements of the District would be considered incomplete or misleading. There are no entities considered to be component units of the District; therefore, the financial statements include only the operations of the District.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Government-Wide and Fund Financial Statements
The basic financial statements include both government-wide and fund financial statements.
The government-wide financial statements (i.e., the statement of net position and the statement of activities) report information on all of the non-fiduciary activities of the primary government. For the most part, the effect of interfund activity has been removed from these statements.
The statement of activities demonstrates the degree to which the direct expenses of a given function or segment is offset by program revenues. Direct expenses are those that are clearly identifiable with a specific function or segment. Program revenues include: 1) charges to customers who purchase, use, or directly benefit from goods, services, or privileges provided by a given function or segment; operating-type special assessments for maintenance and debt service are treated as charges for services and 2) grants and contributions that are restricted to meeting the operational or capital requirements of a particular function or segment. Other items not included among program revenues are reported instead as general revenues.
NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

Measurement Focus, Basis of Accounting and Financial Statement Presentation
The government-wide financial statements are reported using the economic resources measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are recorded when earned and expenses are recorded when a liability is incurred, regardless of the timing of related cash flows. Assessments are recognized as revenues in the year for which they are levied. Grants and similar items are to be recognized as revenue as soon as all eligibility requirements imposed by the provider have been met.

Governmental fund financial statements are reported using the current financial resources measurement focus and the modified accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are recognized as soon as they are both measurable and available. Revenues are considered to be available when they are collectible within the current period or soon enough thereafter to pay liabilities of the current period. For this purpose, the government considers revenues to be available if they are collected within 60 days of the end of the current fiscal period. Expenditures are recorded when a liability is incurred, as under accrual accounting. However, debt service expenditures are recorded only when payment is due.
Assessments
Assessments are non-ad valorem assessments on benefitted property within the District. Operating and Maintenance Assessments are based upon adopted budget and levied annually at a public hearing of the District. Debt Service Assessments are levied when Bonds are issued and assessed and collected on an annual basis. The District may collect assessments directly or utilize the uniform method of collection (Chapter 197.3632, Florida Statutes). Direct collected assessments are due as determined by annual assessment resolution adopted by the Board of Supervisors. Assessments collected under the uniform method are mailed by County Tax Collector on November 1 and due on or before May 31 of each year. Property owners may prepay a portion or all of the Debt Service Assessments on their property subject to various provisions in the Bond documents.

Assessments and interest associated with the current fiscal period are considered to be susceptible to accrual and so have been recognized as revenues of the current fiscal period. The portion of assessments receivable due within the current fiscal period is considered to be susceptible to accrual as revenue of the current period.

The District reports the following major governmental funds:

General Fund
The general fund is the general operating fund of the District. It is used to account for all financial resources except those required to be accounted for in another fund.
Debt Service Fund
The debt service fund is used to account for the accumulation of resources for the annual payment of principal and interest on long-term debt.

Capital Projects Fund
This fund accounts for the financial resources to be used for the acquisition or construction of major infrastructure and repairs and maintenance within the District.
As a general rule, the effect of interfund activity has been eliminated from the government-wide financial statements.

When both restricted and unrestricted resources are available for use, it is the government’s policy to use restricted resources first for qualifying expenditures, then unrestricted resources as they are needed.
NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

Assets, Liabilities and Net Position or Equity

Restricted Assets
These assets represent cash and investments set aside pursuant to Bond covenants or other contractual restrictions.
Deposits and Investments
The government’s cash and cash equivalents are considered to be cash on hand and demand deposits (interest and non-interest bearing).

The District has elected to proceed under the Alternative Investment Guidelines as set forth in Section
218.415 (17) Florida Statutes. The District may invest any surplus public funds in the following:

The Local Government Surplus Trust Funds, or any intergovernmental investment pool authorized pursuant to the Florida Interlocal Cooperation Act;
Securities and Exchange Commission registered money market funds with the highest credit quality rating from a nationally recognized rating agency;
Interest bearing time deposits or savings accounts in qualified public depositories;
Direct obligations of the U.S. Treasury.

The State Board of Administration’s (“SBA”) Local Government Surplus Funds Trust Fund (“Florida PRIME”) is a“2a-7 like” pool. A “2a-7 like” pool is an external investment pool that is not registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) as an investment company, but nevertheless has a policy that it will, and does, operate in a manner consistent with the SEC’s Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act of 1940, which comprises the rules governing money market funds. Thus, the pool operates essentially as a money market fund. The District has reported its investment in Florida PRIME at amortized cost for financial reporting purposes
Securities listed in paragraph c and d shall be invested to provide sufficient liquidity to pay obligations as they come due.

The District records all interest revenue related to investment activities in the respective funds. Investments are measured at amortized cost or reported at fair value as required by generally accepted accounting principles.

Prepaid Items
Certain payments to vendors reflect costs applicable to future accounting periods and are recorded as prepaid items.
Capital Assets
Capital assets which include property, plant and equipment, and infrastructure assets (e.g., roads, sidewalks and similar items) are reported in the government activities columns in the government-wide financial statements. Capital assets are defined by the government as assets with an initial, individual cost of more than $5,000 (amount not rounded) and an estimated useful life in excess of two years. Such assets are recorded at historical cost or estimated historical cost if purchased or constructed. Donated capital assets are recorded at acquisition value at the date of donation.

The costs of normal maintenance and repairs that do not add to the value of the asset or materially extend assets lives are not capitalized. Major outlays for capital assets and improvements are capitalized as projects are constructed.

No depreciation has been taken in the current fiscal year as the District’s infrastructure and other capital assets are under construction.

Unearned Revenue
Governmental funds report unearned revenue in connection with resources that have been received, but not yet earned.
NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

Assets, Liabilities and Net Position or Equity (Continued)

Long-Term Obligations
In the basic financial statements, long-term debt and other long-term obligations are reported as liabilities in the statement of net position. Bond premiums and discounts are deferred and amortized ratably over the life of the Bonds. Bonds payable are reported net of the applicable premiums or discounts. Bond issuance costs are expensed when incurred.

In the fund financial statements, governmental fund types recognize premiums and discounts, as well as issuance costs, during the current period. The face amount of debt issued is reported as other financing sources. Premiums received on debt issuances are reported as other financing sources while discounts on debt issuances are reported as other financing uses. Issuance costs, whether or not withheld from the actual debt proceeds received, are reported as debt service expenditures.

Deferred Outflows/Inflows of Resources
In addition to assets, the statement of financial position will sometimes report a separate section for deferred outflows of resources. This separate financial statement element, deferred outflows of resources, represents a consumption of net position that applies to a future period(s) and so will not be recognized as an outflow of resources (expense/expenditure) until then.

In addition to liabilities, the statement of financial position will sometimes report a separate section for deferred inflows of resources. This separate financial statement element, deferred inflows of resources, represents an acquisition of net position that applies to a future period(s) and so will not be recognized as an inflow of resources (revenue) until that time

Fund Equity/Net Position
In the fund financial statements, governmental funds report non spendable and restricted fund balance for amounts that are not available for appropriation or are legally restricted by outside parties for use for a specific purpose. Assignments of fund balance represent tentative management plans that are subject to change.

The District can establish limitations on the use of fund balance as follows:

Committed fund balance – Amounts that can be used only for the specific purposes determined by a formal action (resolution) of the Board of Supervisors. Commitments may be changed or lifted only by the Board of Supervisors taking the same formal action (resolution) that imposed the constraint originally. Resources accumulated pursuant to stabilization arrangements sometimes are reported in this category.
Assigned fund balance – Includes spendable fund balance amounts established by the Board of Supervisors that are intended to be used for specific purposes that are neither considered restricted nor committed. The Board may also assign fund balance as it does when appropriating fund balance to cover differences in estimated revenue and appropriations in the subsequent year’s appropriated budget. Assignments are generally temporary and normally the same formal action need not be taken to remove the assignment.

The District first uses committed fund balance, followed by assigned fund balance and then unassigned fund balance when expenditures are incurred for purposes for which amounts in any of the unrestricted fund balance classifications could be used.

Net position is the difference between assets and deferred outflows of resources less liabilities and deferred inflows of resources. Net position in the government-wide financial statements are categorized as net investment in capital assets, restricted or unrestricted.

Unrestricted net position consists of the net position not meeting the definition of either of the other two components.
Other Disclosures

Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenditures during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

NOTE 3 – BUDGETARY INFORMATION

The District is required to establish a budgetary system and an approved Annual Budget. Annual Budgets are adopted on a basis consistent with generally accepted accounting principles for the general fund. All annual appropriations lapse at fiscal year-end.

The District follows these procedures in establishing the budgetary data reflected in the financial statements.

Each year the District Manager submits to the District Board a proposed operating budget for the fiscal year commencing the following October 1.
Public hearings are conducted to obtain public comments.
Prior to October 1, the budget is legally adopted by the District Board.
All budget changes must be approved by the District Board.
The budgets are adopted on a basis consistent with generally accepted accounting principles.
Unused appropriation for annually budgeted funds lapse at the end of the year.

NOTE 4 – DEPOSITS AND INVESTMENTS

Deposits
The District’s cash balances were entirely covered by federal depository insurance or by a collateral pool pledged to the State Treasurer. "Florida Security for Public Deposits Act" its compliance with Chapter 280, Florida Statutes, requires all qualified depositories to deposit with the Treasurer or another banking institution eligible collateral equal to various percentages of the average daily balance for each month of all public deposits in excess of any applicable deposit insurance held. The percentage of eligible collateral (generally, U.S. Governmental and agency securities, state or local government debt, or corporate bonds) to public deposits is dependent upon the depository's financial history and its compliance with Chapter 280. In the event of a failure of a qualified public depository, the remaining public depositories would be responsible for covering any resulting losses.
NOTE 4 – DEPOSITS AND INVESTMENTS (Continued)

Investments
The District’s investments were held as follows at September 30, 2025:

	Amortized Cost	Credit Risk	Maturities	
US Bank Money Market	$	1,272,640	N/A	N/A	
SBA	312,790	S&P AAAm	47 Days	
Total Investments	$	1,585,430			
Concentration risk – The District places no limit on the amount the District may invest in any one issuer.

Credit risk – For investments, credit risk is generally the risk that an issuer of an investment will not fulfill its obligation to the holder of the investment. This is measured by the assignment of a rating by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization. Investment ratings by investment type are included in the preceding summary of investments.

Interest rate risk – The District does not have a formal policy that limits investment maturities as a means of managing exposure to fair value losses arising from increasing interest rates.

However, the Bond Indenture limits the type of investments held using unspent proceeds.
Fair Value Measurement – When applicable, the District measures and records its investments using fair value measurement guidelines established in accordance with GASB Statements. The framework for measuring fair value provides a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques.

These guidelines recognize a three-tiered fair value hierarchy, in order of highest priority, as follows:
Level 1: Investments whose values are based on unadjusted quoted prices for identical investments in active markets that the District has the ability to access;
Level 2: Investments whose inputs - other than quoted market prices - are observable either directly or indirectly; and,
Level 3: Investments whose inputs are unobservable.
The fair value measurement level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the entire fair value measurement. Valuation techniques used should maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.

Money market investments that have a maturity at the time of purchase of one year or less and are held by governments other than external investment pools should be measured at amortized cost. For external investment pools that qualify to be measured at amortized cost, the pool’s participants should also measure their investments in that external investment pool at amortized cost for financial reporting purposes. Accordingly, the District’s investments have been reported at amortized cost above.
NOTE 4 – DEPOSITS AND INVESTMENTS (Continued)

Investments (Continued)
External Investment Pool – With regard to redemption gates, Chapter 218.409(8)(a), Florida Statutes, states that “The principal, and any part thereof, of each account constituting the trust fund is subject to payment at any time from the moneys in the trust fund. However, the Executive Director may, in good faith, on the occurrence of an event that has a material impact on liquidity or operations of the trust fund, for 48 hours limit contributions to or withdrawals from the trust fund to ensure that the Board can invest moneys entrusted to it in exercising its fiduciary responsibility. Such action must be immediately disclosed to all participants, the Trustees, the Joint Legislative Auditing Committee, the Investment Advisory Council, and the Participant Local Government Advisory Council. The Trustees shall convene an emergency meeting as soon as practicable from the time the Executive Director has instituted such measures and review the necessity of those measures. If the Trustees are unable to convene an emergency meeting before the expiration of the 48-hour moratorium on contributions and withdrawals, the moratorium may be extended by the Executive Director until the Trustees are able to meet to review the necessity for the moratorium. If the Trustees agree with such measures, the Trustees shall vote to continue the measures for up to an additional 15 days. The Trustees must convene and vote to continue any such measures before the expiration of the time limit set, but in no case may the time limit set by the Trustees exceed 15 days.” With regard to liquidity fees, Florida Statute 218.409(4) provides authority for the SBA to impose penalties for early withdrawal, subject to disclosure in the enrollment materials of the amount and purpose of such fees. At present, no such disclosure has been made.
As of September 30, 2025, there were no redemption fees or maximum transaction amounts, or any other requirements that serve to limit a participant’s daily access to 100% of their account value.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING AND ON COMPLIANCE AND OTHER MATTERS BASED ON AN AUDIT OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS PERFORMED IN ACCORDANCE WITH GOVERNMENT AUDITING STANDARDS
To the Board of Supervisors
Tohoqua Community Development District City of St. Cloud, Florida
We have audited, in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards issued by the Comptroller General of the United States, the financial statements of the governmental activities and each major fund of Tohoqua Community Development District, City of St. Cloud, Florida (“District”) as of and for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2025, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the District’s basic financial statements, and have issued our opinion thereon dated March 6, 2026.
Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements, we considered the District’s internal control over financial reporting (internal control) to determine the audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances for the purpose of expressing our opinions on the financial statements, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the District’s internal control. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the District’s internal control.
A deficiency in internal control exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent, or detect and correct misstatements on a timely basis. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the entity’s financial statements will not be prevented, or detected and corrected on a timely basis. A significant deficiency is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control that is less severe than a material weakness, yet important enough to merit attention by those charged with governance.
Our consideration of internal control was for the limited purpose described in the first paragraph of this section and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control that might be material weaknesses or, significant deficiencies. Given these limitations, during our audit we did not identify any deficiencies in internal control that we consider to be material weaknesses. However, material weaknesses or significant deficiencies may exist that were not identified.
Report on Compliance and Other Matters
As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the District’s financial statements are free from material misstatement, we performed tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and agreements, noncompliance with which could have a direct and material effect on the determination of financial statement amounts. However, providing an opinion on compliance with those provisions was not an objective of our audit, and accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. The results of our tests disclosed no instances of noncompliance or other matters that are required to be reported under Government Auditing Standards.

Re:	$2,230,000 Tohoqua Community Development District (City of St. Cloud, Florida),
Special Assessment Revenue Bonds, Series 2023 (Phase 4B/5B Project)	

Dear Ms. Costa:
AMTEC has prepared certain computations relating to the above referenced bond issue (the “Bonds”) at the request of the Tohoqua Community Development District (the “District”).
The scope of our engagement consisted of preparing the computations shown in the attached schedules to determine the Rebatable Arbitrage as described in Section 103 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1954, Section 148(f) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), and all applicable Regulations issued thereunder. The methodology used is consistent with current tax law and regulations and may be relied upon in determining the rebate liability. Certain computational methods used in the preparation of the schedules are described in the Summary of Computational Information and Definitions.

Our engagement was limited to the computation of Rebatable Arbitrage based upon the information furnished to us by the District. In accordance with the terms of our engagement, we did not audit the information provided to us, and we express no opinion as to the completeness, accuracy or suitability of such information for purposes of calculating the Rebatable Arbitrage.

We have scheduled our next Report as of February 28, 2027. Thank you and should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Very truly yours,

Michael J. Scarfo
Senior Vice President	Trong M. Tran
Assistant Vice President

SUMMARY OF COMPUTATIONAL INFORMATION AND DEFINITIONS
COMPUTATIONAL INFORMATION

For purposes of computing Rebatable Arbitrage, investment activity is reflected from March 15, 2023, the date of the closing, to February 28, 2026, the Computation Period. All nonpurpose payments and receipts are future valued to the Computation Date of June 15, 2027.

Computations of yield are based on a 360-day year and semiannual compounding on the last day of each compounding interval. Compounding intervals end on a day in the calendar year corresponding to Bond maturity dates or six months prior.

For investment cash flow, debt service and yield computation purposes, all payments and receipts are assumed to be paid or received respectively, as shown on the attached schedules.
Purchase prices on investments are assumed to be at fair market value, representing an arm's length transaction.
During the period between March 15, 2023 and February 28, 2026, the District made periodic payments into the Debt Service Fund that were used, along with the interest earned, to provide the required debt service payments.
Under Section 148(f)(4)(A), the rebate requirement does not apply to amounts in certain bona fide debt service funds. The Regulations define a bona fide debt service fund as one that is used primarily to achieve a proper matching of revenues with principal and interest payments within each bond year. The fund must be depleted at least once each bond year, except for a reasonable carryover amount not to exceed the greater of the earnings on the fund for the immediately preceding bond year or 1/12th of the principal and interest payments on the issue for the immediately preceding bond year.
We have reviewed the Debt Service Fund and have determined that the funds deposited have functioned as a bona fide debt service fund and are not subject to the rebate requirement.

DEFINITIONS

Computation Date
June 15, 2027.

Computation Period
The period beginning on March 15, 2023, the date of the closing, and ending on February 28, 2026.

Bond Year
Each one-year period (or shorter period from the date of issue) that ends at the close of business on June 15th, the day in the calendar year that was selected by the Issuer, or the final redemption date of the Bonds.
Bond Yield
The discount rate that, when used in computing the present value of all the unconditionally payable payments of principal and interest with respect to the Bonds, produces an amount equal to the present value of the issue price of the Bonds. Present value is computed as of the date of issue of the Bonds.

Taxable Investment Yield
The discount rate that, when used in computing the present value of all receipts of principal and interest to be received on an investment during the Computation Period, produces an amount equal to the fair market value of the investment at the time it became a nonpurpose investment.

Issue Price
The price determined on the basis of the initial offering price at which price a substantial amount of the Bonds was sold.

Rebatable Arbitrage
The Code defines the required rebate as the excess of the amount earned on all nonpurpose investments over the amount that would have been earned if such nonpurpose investments were invested at the Bond Yield, plus any income attributable to the excess. Accordingly, the Regulations require that this amount be computed as the excess of the future value of all the nonpurpose receipts over the future value of all the nonpurpose payments. The future value is computed as of the Computation Date using the Bond Yield.

Funds and Accounts
The Funds and Accounts activity used in the compilation of this Report was received from the District and US Bank, Trustee, as follows:

Fund	Account Number	
Revenue	278961000	
Interest	278961001	
Principal	278961002	
Prepayment	278961003	
Reserve	278961004	
Project	278961005	
Capitalized Interest	278961006	
Costs of Issuance	278961007	
METHODOLOGY
Bond Yield
The methodology used to calculate the bond yield was to determine the discount rate that produces the present value of all payments of principal and interest through the maturity date of the Bonds.

Investment Yield and Rebate Amount
The methodology used to calculate the Rebatable Arbitrage, as of February 28, 2026, was to calculate the future value of the disbursements from all funds, subject to rebate, and the value of the remaining bond proceeds, at the yield on the Bonds, to June 15, 2027. This figure was then compared to the future value of the deposit of bond proceeds into the various investment accounts at the same yield. The difference between the future values of the two cash flows, on June 15, 2027, is the Rebatable Arbitrage.

Arbitrage Rebate Computation Proposal For
Tohoqua Community Development District
(City of St. Cloud, Florida)
$3,880,000 Special Assessment Revenue Bonds, Series 2025 (Phase 8 Project)

April 27, 2026

Tohoqua Community Development District c/o Ms. Katie Costa
Director of Accounting Services
Government Management Services – CF, LLC 6200 Lee Vista Boulevard
Suite 300
Orlando, FL 32822

Re:	$3,880,000 Tohoqua Community Development District (City of St. Cloud, Florida), Special Assessment Revenue Bonds, Series 2025 (Phase 8 Project)

Dear Ms. Costa:

AMTEC is an independent consulting firm that specializes in arbitrage rebate calculations. We have the ability to complete rebate computations for the above-referenced Tohoqua Community Development District (the “District”) Series 2025 (Phase 8 Project) bond issue (the “Bonds”). We do not sell investments or seek an underwriting role. As a result of our specialization, we offer very competitive pricing for rebate computations. Our typical fee averages less than $1,000 per year, per issue and includes up to five years of annual rebate liability reporting.
Firm History

AMTEC was incorporated in 1990 and maintains a prominent client base of colleges and universities, school districts, hospitals, cities, state agencies and small-town bond issuers throughout the United States. We currently compute rebate for more than 7,800 bond issues and have delivered thousands of rebate reports. The IRS has never challenged our findings.

Southeast Client Base
We provide arbitrage rebate services to over 350 bond issues aggregating more than $9.1 billion of tax-exempt debt in the southeastern United States. We have recently performed computations for the Magnolia West, East Park, Palm Coast Park, Windward and Town Center at Palm Coast Park Community Development Districts. Additionally, we are exclusive rebate consultant to Broward County and the Town of Palm Beach in Florida. Nationally, we are rebate consultants for the City of Tulsa (OK), the City of Lubbock (TX) and the States of Connecticut, Montana, Mississippi, West Virginia, Vermont and Alaska.

We have prepared a Proposal for the computation of arbitrage for the District’s Bonds. We have established a "bond year end" of November 12th, based upon the anniversary of the closing date of the Bonds in November 2025.
Proposal

We are proposing rebate computation services based on the following:

$3,880,000 Series 2025 (Phase 8 Project) Special Assessment Revenue Bonds
Fixed Rate Debt
Acquisition & Construction, Debt Service Reserve, Cost of Issuance & Debt Service Accounts.

Should the Tax Agreement require rebate computations for any other accounts, computations will be extended to include those accounts at no additional cost to the District.

Our guaranteed fee for rebate computations for the Series 2025 Bonds is $450 per year and will encompass all activity from November 12, 2025, the date of the closing, through November 12, 2030, the end of the 5th Bond Year and initial Computation Date. The fee is based upon the size as well as the complexity. Our fee is payable upon your acceptance of our rebate reports, which will be delivered shortly after the report dates specified in the following table.

AMTEC's Professional Fee – $3,880,000 Series 2025 Special Assessment Revenue Bonds

Report Date	Type of Report	Period Covered	Fee	
November 30, 2026	Rebate and Opinion	Closing – November 30, 2026	$ 450	
November 30, 2027	Rebate and Opinion	Closing – November 30, 2027	$ 450	
November 30, 2028	Rebate and Opinion	Closing – November 30, 2028	$ 450	
November 30, 2029	Rebate and Opinion	Closing – November 30, 2029	$ 450	
November 12, 2030	Rebate and Opinion	Closing – November 12, 2030	$ 450	
In order to begin, we are requesting copies of the following documentation:

Arbitrage Certificate or Tax Regulatory Agreement
IRS Form 8038-G
Closing Memorandum
US Bank statements for all accounts from November 12, 2025, the date of the closing, through each report date

AMTEC's Scope of Services

Our standard engagement includes the following services:
Review of all bond documents and account statements for possible rebate exceptions;
Computation of the rebate liability and/or the yield restricted amount, in accordance with Section 148 of the Internal Revenue Code, commencing with the date of the closing through required reporting date of the Bonds;
Independent calculation of the yield on the Bonds to ensure the correct basis for any rebate liability. This effort provides the basis for our unqualified opinion;
Reconciliation of the sources and uses of funds from the bond documentation;
Calculation and analysis of the yield on all investments, subject to the Regulations, for each computation period;
Production of rebate reports, indicating the above stated information, and the issuance of the AMTEC Opinion;
Recommendations for proactive rebate management;
Commingled funds, transferred proceeds and yield restriction analyses, if necessary;
Preparation of IRS Form 8038-T and any accompanying documentation, should a rebate payment be required;
We will discuss the results of our Reports with you, your auditors, and our continued support in the event of an IRS inquiry; and
We guarantee the completeness and accuracy of our work.

The District agrees to furnish AMTEC with the required documentation necessary to fulfill its obligation under the scope of services. The District will make available staff knowledgeable about the bond transactions, investments and disbursements of bond proceeds.

The District agrees to pay AMTEC its fee after it has been satisfied that the scope of services, as outlined under the Proposal, has been fulfilled. AMTEC agrees that its fee is all-inclusive and that it will not charge the District for any expenses connected with this engagement.

The parties have executed this Agreement on 	, 2025.

Section XIII

Section A
Request received on April 9th:

Hi Jan and Kristen – Hope you are both doing well.
We working with Neptune and its affiliates in connection with the preparation of governing documents for a commercial property owners association (“POA”). The POA will include parcels within the “Neptune Property,” which is subject to the attached Cost Sharing Agreement with the Tohoqua CDD (the “CSA”). I understand you represent the Tohoqua CDD.
In working on the POA structure, it became apparent Lot 3 in the Tohoqua Mixed Use Plat (attached) does not need to be - and arguably should not be - a part of the POA. Lot 3 is effectively a “stand alone parcel” and will not share in any POA-owned/controlled infrastructure. It would complicate the POA documents and governance of the POA if we include Lot 3 as part of the POA, especially since Lot 3 would not have any easements or use rights in other POA property. As such, we are looking for an alternative that takes Lot 3 out of the POA, while still making the POA responsible to pay the CDD the full “Neptune Fair Share” under the CSA, including Lot 3’s respective allocation.
The CSA references the creation of POA to govern all of the Neptune Property and does not address a situation where some of the Neptune Property would be governed outside of the POA. As such and to facilitate taking Lot 3 out of the POA, we prepared an amendment allowing Lot 3 to be excluded from the POA, but still having the POA responsible for payment of the “Neptune Fair Share,” including the portion of payment that would have been allocated to Lot 3 if Lot 3 had remained in the POA. Under our proposed amendment, the POA will be responsible for collecting the Neptune Fair Share from all parcels within the Neptune Property and remitting same to the CDD, and the POA will be responsible for payment of the 7.37%, regardless of whether certain parcels (e.g. Lot 3) are excluded from the POA.
We are requesting your review on behalf of the CDD of the attached amendment to the CSA. Please let us know if you have any questions or comments.

Thank you in advance.

The District and Neptune entered into the Cost Sharing Agreement for Operation and Maintenance of Shared Infrastructure dated May 1, 2024, and recorded in Book 6593, Page 1201 as CFN# 2024057418 of the Public Records of Osceola County, Florida (the “Agreement”). All capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Agreement.

Neptune is the current record title owner of all of the Neptune Property.

Pursuant to Section 19 of the Agreement, the Agreement may be modified and amended by a written instrument signed by the Parties.

The Parties enter into this Amendment to memorialize their agreements regarding modifications and amendments to the Agreement as provided herein.

NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt, adequacy, and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties intending to be legally bound, covenant and agree as follows:

Recitals. The foregoing recitals are true and correct and are incorporated herein.

Amendment to Section 3 of Agreement. The first paragraph of Section 3 of the Agreement is amended as follows [text to be deleted is indicated by strikethrough (strikethrough) and text to be added is indicated by a double underline (underline)]:

Cost Sharing; Neptune Fair Share; District Fair Share. Prior to any sale from Neptune to another owner, Neptune may assign its obligations hereunder, after written notice to the District, to a commercial property owners’ association, or to any other assignee in accordance with Section 9. For any parcels within the Neptune Property for which a certificate of occupancy has not yet been issued for by the applicable governmental authority Neptune agrees to pay to the District
such parcel’s proportionate share of the Administrative Fee of One Hundred and Twenty Dollars ($120.00) per gross acre (the “Administrative Fee”). Commencing on the date a certificate of occupancy has been issued by the applicable governmental authority for improvements constructed on a parcel of the Neptune Property, and so long as the District is performing the Shared Services, Neptune agrees to pay to the District such parcel’s Proportionate Share, as defined below, of an amount equal to seven and thirty-seven one hundredths percent (7.37%) share (the “Neptune Fair Share”) of the District’s annual budget for operation and maintenance, including any contingency items and reserves established by the District and included in the District’s annual budget for operation and maintenance, provided that the Neptune Fair Share shall not exceed the Cap each fiscal year. Until a parcel is issued a certificate of occupancy, Neptune shall pay the Administrative Fee for such parcel. As detailed in Section 9 below, unless context otherwise requires, references to “Neptune” mean Neptune or its assignee(s), including without limitation, any Association (as defined below).
Amendment to Section 5 of Agreement. The last paragraph of Section 5 of the Agreement is amended as follows [text to be deleted is indicated by strikethrough (strikethrough) and text to be added is indicated by a double underline (underline)]:

Neptune may impose and collect the Neptune Fair Share payments for all or a portion of the Neptune Property through property owners’ association (the “Association” (as defined below) assessments and/or other charges (backed by lien rights) levied against the Neptune Property or applicable portions thereof. In the event of such delegation to an Association, such Association shall be responsible for collection and remittance of the applicable Proportionate Share of the Neptune Fair Share allocated to all parcels within the Neptune Property, regardless of whether all parcels within the Neptune Property are subject to such Association. In the event that Neptune imposes and collects the Neptune Fair Share through Association assessments and/or other charges (backed by lien rights), then thereafter the District shall not file a notice of lien upon the entire Neptune Property upon failure of Neptune such Association to pay the Neptune Fair Share, but rather in the event that the Association fails to pay the Neptune Fair Share within such one hundred twenty (120) day period after the Second Notice, the District may file a notice of lien against the portion of the Neptune Property which has not paid to the Association the Proportionate Share of the Neptune Fair Share. Notwithstanding any method Neptune may utilize to generate the funds necessary to pay the Neptune Fair Share, if Neptune shall not have created a separately incorporated owners’ association to be responsible for the Neptune Fair Share, then Neptune shall remain liable for the timely payment of the Neptune Fair Share.

Amendment to Section 9 of Agreement. Section 9 of the Agreement is amended and restated in its entirety and replaced with the following as Section 9:

9.	Covenants Running With the Land; Successors and Assigns. The covenants, terms, and conditions set forth in the Agreement shall attach to and run with the properties described herein. The covenants, terms, and conditions set forth in the Agreement are binding on the Parties, their successors, and assigns. The District may not assign the Agreement or any of its rights or obligations hereunder without first obtaining the written consent of all record title owners of all parcels within the Neptune Property. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, Neptune may not assign the Agreement or any of its rights or obligations hereunder without first obtaining the District’s written consent to the assignment, which consent may not be unreasonably withheld. For purpose of the Agreement, the term “Neptune” shall mean and refer to (i) its applicable successors and/or assignees, or (ii) as context requires, an Association (as defined below) so long as the Association is obligated to collect the Neptune Fair Share from all parcels within the Neptune Property. Further, the “Parties” to the Agreement shall include the District’s and Neptune’s applicable successors and assigns, including any applicable Association (as applicable), and any reference in the Agreement to the phrase “either Party” or “other Party” shall means and refer to each of the Parties, as applicable, as context requires. Each record title owner of property within
the Neptune Property shall be obligated for paying its Proportionate Share of the Neptune Fair Share and otherwise complying with the Agreement, and each record title owner of property within the Neptune Property shall have the right to enforce the Agreement.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Neptune may, upon written notice to the District (and without any further consent of the District), assign all or a portion of its obligations hereunder to one or more of the following (i) a duly formed and validly existing property owners’ association with jurisdiction over all or a portion of the Neptune Property (“Association”); (ii) a parent, subsidiary or affiliated entity of Neptune; and/or (iii) a purchaser of all or portions of the Neptune Property. Provided, however, in the event of an assignment to an Association, Neptune may assign its rights and obligations to other persons or entities meeting the requirements under (ii) and (iii) above so long as the Association is obligated to collect the Neptune Fair Share from all record title owners of all parcels within the Neptune Property, regardless of whether such parcels are subject to such Association. In the event of an assignment or transfer applicable to only a portion of the Neptune Property, Neptune (or its applicable successor and/or assignee) shall provide written notice to the District specifying the approximate acreage and the applicable Proportionate Share of the Neptune Fair Share with respect to such portion of the Neptune Property, which shall be based upon the proportionate acreage of such property relative to the total acreage of the Neptune Property. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, upon compliance with the requirements of this section regarding assignment, the assignor shall not have any further liability under the Agreement.

No assignment pursuant to the Agreement shall release the Neptune Property or any portion thereof from the covenants, terms, and conditions herein contained.

Amendment to Section 11 of Agreement. Section 11 of the Agreement is amended and restated in its entirety and replaced with the following as Section 11:

11.  Notices. All notices, requests, or other communications to a Party required or permitted by the Agreement shall be in writing and may be delivered in person (by hand delivery or professional messenger service) or may be sent by registered or certified mail, with postage prepaid, return receipt requested or delivered by Express Mail of the U.S. Postal Service or Federal Express or any other courier service guaranteeing overnight delivery, charges prepaid. A Party may change its address for purposes of this section by giving notice to the other Parties. Until any such change,
(i) notices to any record title owner of the Neptune Property shall be delivered to the address shown on the Osceola County Property Appraiser’s website applicable to such owner’s portion of the Neptune Property, (ii) notices to an Association (as applicable) shall be delivered to the Association’s registered agent, and (iii) notices to the District shall be addressed as follows:

Amendment to Section 19 of Agreement. Section 19 of the Agreement is amended as follows [text to be deleted is indicated by strikethrough (strikethrough) and text to be added is indicated by a double underline (underline)]:
19.  Entire Agreement, Amendments. This Agreement (together with all exhibits attached hereto) contains all of the agreements of the Parties with respect to the matters contained herein and no prior or contemporaneous agreement or understanding, oral or written, pertaining to any such matters shall be effective for any purpose. No provision of this Agreement may be modified, amended or waived except by a written instrument signed by the District and the record title owner(s) of the Neptune Property both Parties, unless specifically provided for herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, as to any parcel within the Neptune Property that is subject to the jurisdiction of an Association responsible for collection and remittance of the Neptune Fair Share, the “record title owner” of such parcel for purposes of consent to an amendment of this Agreement shall be the Association, and only the Association’s written consent (and not the written consent of the individual owner of such parcel) is required with respect to such parcel for any amendment of this Agreement. Further notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event a proposed amendment impacts only some, but not all, of the Neptune Property and/or owners thereof, then such amendment may be effectuated by a written instrument signed by the District and the affected owners of such impacted portions of the Neptune Property.

Should any clause or provision of this Amendment be determined to be illegal, invalid, or unenforceable under any present or future law by final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction, the remainder of this Amendment will not be affected thereby. It is the intention of the parties that if any such provision is held to be illegal, invalid, or unenforceable, there will be added in lieu thereof a legal, valid, and enforceable provision that is as similar as possible in terms to the illegal, invalid, or unenforceable provision.

Entire Agreement. The Agreement, as modified by this Amendment, contains the entire agreement of the parties pertaining to the subject matter hereof and there are no representations, promises or agreements, oral or otherwise, not embodied herein or in writing. Should the terms of the Agreement and this Amendment be found to conflict, the terms of this Amendment shall control. This instrument is given to amend the Agreement as set forth herein, and except as expressly modified herein, the Agreement shall continue in full force and effect after the date hereof.

Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts, any one and all of which shall constitute the agreement of the parties and each of which shall be deemed an original.

Familiarity with the Project. The Proposer, by and through the submission of the Proposal, agrees that he shall be held responsible for having heretofore examined the project site, the location of all proposed work and for having satisfied himself from his own personal knowledge and experience or professional advice as to the character, conditions, and location of the site, the nature of the turf, shrubs, trees, palms, vegetation, weeds, sprinklers and irrigation systems, roads, sidewalks and paved paths, ground, surface and subsurface, and any other

The Proposer, in preparing the Proposal, shall take into consideration that work by other contractors may be in progress at or near the site and that the Proposer shall not interfere with work done by such other contractors.

PROJECT MANUAL. The “Project Manual” and any addenda thereto, will be available by request from Brittany Brookes at bbrookes@gmscfl.com.

Qualifications	of	Proposer;	Mandatory	and	Permissive
Requirements. The contract, if awarded, will only be awarded to a responsible Proposer who is qualified by experience to do the work specified herein at the sole and absolute discretion of the District. The Proposer shall submit with its Proposal satisfactory evidence of experience in similar work and show that it is fully prepared with the necessary organization, capital, and equipment to complete the work to the satisfaction of the District.

All other requirements set forth in the Project Manual shall be deemed “permissive,” in that a Proposer’s failure to meet any requirement described in mandatory terms such as “shall,” “will,” “mandatory,” or similar language does not automatically disqualify the Proposer’s Proposal, but instead in the Board’s discretion may result in the disqualification of a Proposal or alternatively may be taken into account in the evaluation and scoring of the Proposal.

Collusion Prohibited. Proposers shall be disqualified and their proposals rejected if the District has reason to believe that collusion may exist among the Proposers, the Proposer has defaulted on any previous contract or is in arrears on any previous or existing contract, or for failure to demonstrate proper licensure and business organization.

By submitting a Proposal, the Proposer is assumed to be familiar with all federal, state, and local laws, ordinances, rules and regulations that in any manner affect the work as well as the District’s operating rules and procedures.

During this black out period, and except as otherwise expressly authorized herein, any attempt to communicate either directly or indirectly with District staff or officials related to this solicitation for goods or services, in person, by mail, by facsimile, by telephone, by electronic mail, or by any other means of communication, will result in disqualification of their award and/or contract.

SWORN STATEMENT UNDER SECTION 287.133(3)(A),
FLORIDA STATUTES, REGARDING PUBLIC ENTITY CRIMES

THIS FORM MUST BE SIGNED AND SWORN TO IN THE PRESENCE OF A NOTARY PUBLIC OR OTHER OFFICIAL AUTHORIZED TO ADMINISTER OATHS.

This sworn statement is submitted to Tohoqua Development District.

I am over eighteen (18) years of age and competent to testify as to the matters contained
herein. I serve in the capacity of
BD Manager
for
Duval Landscape Maintenance LLC.

(“Proposer”), and am authorized to make this Sworn Statement on behalf of Proposer.

Proposer’s business address is

Proposer’s Federal Employer Identification Number (FEIN) is
FEIN 27 0877531

(If the Proposer has no FEIN, include the Social Security Number of the individual signing this sworn statement: 	.)
I understand that a "public entity crime" as defined in Section 287.133(1)(g), Florida Statutes, means a violation of any state or federal law by a person with respect to and directly related to the transaction of business with any public entity or with an agency or political subdivision of any other state or with the United States, including, but not limited to, any proposal or contract for goods or services to be provided to any public entity or an agency or political subdivision of any other state or of the United States and involving antitrust, fraud, theft, bribery, collusion, racketeering, conspiracy, or material misrepresentation.
I understand that "convicted" or "conviction" as defined in Section 287.133(1)(b), Florida Statutes, means a finding of guilt or a conviction of a public entity crime, with or without an adjudication of guilt, in any federal or state trial court of record relating to charges brought by indictment or information after July 1, 1989, as a result of jury verdict, nonjury trial, or entry of a plea of guilty or nolo contendere.

I understand that an "affiliate" as defined in Section 287.133(1)(a), Florida Statutes, means:
A predecessor or successor of a person convicted of a public entity crime; or,

An entity under the control of any natural person who is active in the management of the entity and who has been convicted of a public entity crime. The term "affiliate" includes those officers, directors, executives, partners, shareholders, employees, members, and agents who are active in the management of an affiliate. The ownership by one person of shares constituting a controlling interest in another person, or a pooling of equipment or income among persons when not for fair market value under an arm's length agreement, shall be a prima facie case that one person controls another
person. A person who knowingly enters into a joint venture with a person who has been convicted of a public entity crime in Florida during the preceding 36 months shall be considered an affiliate.

I understand that a "person" as defined in Section 287.133(1)(e), Florida Statutes, means any natural person or entity organized under the laws of any state or of the United States with the legal power to enter into a binding contract and which proposals or applies to proposal on contracts for the provision of goods or services let by a public entity, or which otherwise transacts or applies to transact business with a public entity. The term "person" includes those officers, directors, executives, partners, shareholders, employees, members, and agents who are active in management of an entity.

Based on information and belief, the statement which I have marked below is true in relation to the Proposer submitting this sworn statement. (Please indicate which statement applies.)
	 Neither the entity submitting this sworn statement, nor any officers, directors, executives, partners, shareholders, employees, members, or agents who are active in management of the entity, nor any affiliate of the entity, have been charged with and convicted of a public entity crime subsequent to July 1, 1989.

	 The entity submitting this sworn statement, or one or more of the officers, directors, executives, partners, shareholders, employees, members or agents who are active in management of the entity or an affiliate of the entity, has been charged with and convicted of a public entity crime subsequent to July 1, 1989, AND (please indicate which additional statement applies):

	 There has been a proceeding concerning the conviction before an Administrative Law Judge of the State of Florida, Division of Administrative Hearings. The final order entered by the Administrative Law Judge did not place the person or affiliate on the convicted vendor list. (Please attach a copy of the final order.)
	 The person or affiliate was placed on the convicted vendor list. There has been a subsequent proceeding before an Administrative Law Judge of the State of Florida, Division of Administrative Hearings. The final order entered by the Administrative Law Judge determined that it was in the public interest to remove the person or affiliate from the convicted vendor list. (Please attach a copy of the final order.)

	 The person or affiliate has not been placed on the convicted vendor list. (Please describe any action taken by or pending with the Florida Department of Management Services.)
Under penalties of perjury under the laws of the State of Florida, I declare that I have read the foregoing Sworn Statement under Section 287.133(3)(a), Florida Statutes, Regarding Public Entity Crimes and all of the information provided is true and correct.

SWORN STATEMENT UNDER SECTION 287.133(3)(A),
FLORIDA STATUTES, REGARDING PUBLIC ENTITY CRIMES

THIS FORM MUST BE SIGNED AND SWORN TO IN THE PRESENCE OF A NOTARY PUBLIC OR OTHER OFFICIAL AUTHORIZED TO ADMINISTER OATHS.

I.	This sworn statement is submitted to Tohoqua Development District.

I am over eighteen ( 18) years of age and competent to testify as to the matters contained herein. I serve in the capacity of Estimating Manager	for _F_lo_ra_la_w_n_l_nc_.	 ("Proposer"), and am authorized to make this Sworn Statement on behalf of Proposer.
Proposer's business address is 734 S Combee Road, Lakeland Florida 33801

Proposer's Federal Employer Identification Number (FEIN) is _5_9-_36_5_3_2_4 6	_

(If the Proposer has no FEIN, include the Social Security Number of the individual signing this sworn statement: 	.)

I understand that a "public entity crime" as defined in Section 287.133(1)(g), Florida Statutes, means a violation of any state or federal law by a person with respect to and directly related to the transaction of business with any public entity or with an agency or political subdivision of any other state or with the United States, including, but not limited to, any proposal or contract for goods or services to be provided to any public entity or an agency or political subdivision of any other state or of the United States and involving antitrust, fraud, theft, bribery, collusion, racketeering, conspiracy, or material misrepresentation.

I understand that "convicted" or "conviction" as defined in Section 287.133(1)(b), Florida Statutes, means a finding of guilt or a conviction of a public entity crime, with or without an adjudication of guilt, in any federal or state trial court of record relating to charges brought by indictment or information after July 1, 1989, as a result of jury verdict, nonjury trial, or entry of a plea of guilty or nolo contendere.

I understand that an "affiliate" as defined in Section 287.133(1)(a), Florida Statutes,
means:

A predecessor or successor of a person convicted of a public entity crime; or,

An entity under the control of any natural person who is active in the management of the entity and who has been convicted of a public entity crime. The term "affiliate" includes those officers, directors, executives, partners, shareholders, employees, members, and agents who are active in the management of an affiliate. The ownership by one person of shares constituting a controlling interest in another person, or a pooling of equipment or income among persons when not for fair market value under an arm's length agreement, shall be a prima facie case that one person controls another
r

person. A person who knowingly enters into a joint venture with a person who has been convicted of a public entity crime in Florida during the preceding 36 months shall be considered an affiliate.

I understand that a "person" as defined in Section 287.133(l)(e), Florida Statutes, means any natural person or entity organized under the laws of any state or of the United States with the legal power to enter into a binding contract and which proposals or applies to proposal on contracts for the provision of goods or services let by a public entity, or which otherwise transacts or applies to transact business with a public entity. The term "person" includes those officers, directors, executives, partners, shareholders, employees, members, and agents who are active in management of an entity.

Brandon Duke
Chief Executive Officer
Brandon Duke is Juniper's Chief Executive Officer and has been in the landscape industry for almost 15 years. He purchased the company from his father in 2016 after working with the family business since 2008. Under his leadership, Juniper has become the 17th largest landscaping company in the nation.
Brandon has since worked tirelessly to make Juniper not only have an impressive reputation for 9uality of work, but also for a positive culture. Since Brandon became CEO, Juniper has grown from one location with 20 employees to 19 locations with nearly 2,000 employees, all of which he oversees.
Brandon has been recognized as one of Lawn and Landscape's Top 100 Landscapers consecutively for the past 7 years. Most recently, he was named 2022 Entrepreneur of the Year by Business Observer after growing company revenue by an impressive 38.6% during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Dan DeMont
Chief Revenue Officer
Dan deMont joined the Juniper team in 2011 at a time when Juniper was just one branch. As the company's first business developer, he focused on diversification in three categories. First, service offering. Second, client base. Third, footprint.
Dan and Brandon were the architects of Juniper's Design, Build and Maintain strategy. This caught like wildfire by 2012 as clients saw overwhelming value in having a sole source provider with full accountab:!ity. This value fueled rapid	expansion of market share with existing clients and set Juniper up for an influx of new clients.
Under Dan's leadership and in significant organic fashion, Juniper expanded into new geographic markets. Juniper's footprint covers the entire southern half of Florida and services their clients from 9 branches and counting. Juniper is solicited to new markets for the largest and highest profile jobs in the state.

Jake Rubin
Chief Operations Officer
Jake Rubin is Juniper's Chief Operating Officer. He works to establish peak operational performance through the creation and implementation of best practices at all levels of the company.
By engaging with branch teams across the organization, Jake has delivered improvements to operating margins and established processes focused on increased efficiency and 9uality. He also partners with Juniper's HR team to develop and deliver operational improvement training programs to all branch operations teams.
Jake has a background of over 15 years in leadership roles managing large-scale, privat e9uity-backed, multi-state operations in the transportation, construction, landscape, and commercial services industries. He is very experienced in areas such as margin

April 17, 2026

Tohoqua COD Kissimmee, FL

RE: Tohoqua COD Letter of Assurance Dear Board of Directors,
Juniper Landscaping of Florida, LLC is pleased to submit our proposal for the landscape maintenance services for Tohoqua COD.

Juniper Landscaping currently maintains multiple communities just like Tohoqua and is very familiar with the property procedures and protocols. Since managing these properties, I am confident you will find that we have made improvements and built relationships with those communities. We feel confident we can make the same improvements at Keen's Pointe if given the opportunity.

Josh Burton and Matt Dean have both worked for National and/or Regional landscape firms and in their role, personally managed large communities similar to Tohoqua COD. Our collective experience spans over 40 years of professional landscape maintenance and construction management. More importantly, we have the passion and determination to grow our firm on a foundation of quality workmanship that our client's demand.

Our approach to managing Tohoqua COD is based on the demands as the project manual describes. Our approach is to have a team led by both a Branch Manager and Account Manager who will coordinate the workflow with a team consisting of 13 staff members. The primary staff will report to the community 4 days per week. If the weather causes a delay in performing our duties, we will complete our tasks on Friday if necessary. In addition to the overseeing Branch Manager, the team will include the following:

(1) Account Manager who will:
Assist the Branch Manager in managing the crews, ensuring they are meeting schedules.
Care for any special maintenance request.
Provide follow-up treatments to turf and ornamental weed, insect, and disease pressures.
Provide Weekly Reports
Juniper

(13) Landscape Maintenance Professionals who will:
Be divided into (2) teams. The crew breakdown consists of one (5) man mow, one (4) man detail team, one (2) man agronomy team, and one (2) man irrigation team.
The mow team of (5 men) are dedicated to Tohoqua CDD Monday thru Wednesday. This team will reduce to (4 men) during the off-peak season.
The Detail team of (4 men) will be onsite once per week.
Each team will be led by a Team Supervisor who will manage experienced Gardeners.
One mow team of (5) will manage all community grounds maintenance which will be done in a uniform approach. This team will start and finish each area in 1 day to keep the neat appearance of that area.
One detail team of (4) will manage all the pruning and bed maintenance on the property. The property will be divided into 4 sections. Each week the team is scheduled they will complete one of these sections. This will keep all the grounds looking great year-round.
One agronomy team of (2) will assist with fertilizing and pest control services.
One irrigation team of {2) will assist with inspections and repairs throughout the property.

Fertilization and Pest Control of turf, trees, and shrubs will be performed by our trained professional staff of (2) pest control operators under the Supervision of Certified Pest Control Operators license-holders.
Irrigation inspections and repairs will be performed by (2) trained professional irrigation technicians. An additional (1) Irrigation Specialist will be available as needed for diagnosing and troubleshooting. The irrigation team will create zone maps for reporting and efficiency.

Thank you again for allowing Juniper Landscaping the opportunity to submit our proposal for the landscape maintenance and irrigation maintenance services at Tohoqua CDD. We urge you to call on our references to hear the difference our service has made. We look forward to working with you and are confident in our approach and the services we provide. If given the opportunity, we will make you proud that you chose the team of Juniper Landscaping to manage your community's landscape.

Board of Managers
Juniper Group Acquisition LLC (A Limited Liability Company)

Opinion
We have audited the consolidated financial statements of Juniper Group Acquisition LLC and Subsidiaries (the Company), which comprise the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in member's equity, and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements (collectively, the financial statements).

In our opinion, the accompanying financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAS). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are required to be independent of the Company and to meet our other ethical responsibilities, in accordance with the relevant ethical requirements relating to our audits. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Responsibilities of Management for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and for the design, implementation and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation ?nd fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, management is required to evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued or available to be issued.

Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not absolute assurance and therefore is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with GAAS will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations or the override of internal control. Misstatements are considered material if there is a substantial likelihood that, individually or in the aggregate, they would influence the judgment made by a reasonable user based on the financial statements.

THE POWER OF BEING UNDERSTOOD
ASSURANCE i TAX CONSULTING	1

In performing an audit in accordance with GAAS, we:

Exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit.

Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, and design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks. Such procedures include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.

Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed.

Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluate the overall presentation of the financial statements.

Conclude whether, in our judgment, there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.

We are required to communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit, significant audit findings, and certain internal control-related matters that we identified during the audit.

SWORN STATEMENT UNDER SECTION 287.133(3){A},
FLORIDA STATUTES, REGARDING PUBLIC ENTITY CRlMES
THIS FORM MUST BE SIGNED AND SWORN TO IN THE PRESENCE OF A NOTARY PUBUC OR OTHER OFFICIAL AUTHORIZED TO ADMINISTER OATHS.

This sworn statement is submitted to Tohoqua Development District.

I am over eighteen (18) years of age and competent to testify as to the matters contained herein. I serve in the capacity of CRM	for Juniper Landscaping of Florida LLC ("Proposer"), and am authorized to make this Sworn Statement on behalf of Proposer.
Proposer's business address is _4_4_1S_M_et_ro_P_a_rkw_a_y_S_u_it_e_3_o_o 	 _ Ft. Myers, Florida 33916

Proposer's Federal Employer Ident.ificat.ion Number (FEIN) .1s
LO9000012442 _

(If the Proposer has no FEIN, include the Social Security Number of the individual signing this sworn statement: 	.)

I understand that a "public entity crime" as defined in Section 287.133(1)(g), Florida Statutes, means a violation of any state or federal law by a person with respect to and directly related to the transaction of business with any public entity or with an agency or political subdivision of any other state or with the United States, including, but not limited to, any proposal or contract for goods or services to be provided to any public entity or an agency or political subdivision of any other state or of the United States and involving antitrust, fraud, theft, bribery, collusion, racketeering, conspiracy, or material misrepresentation.

I understand that "convicted" or "conviction" as defined in Section 287.133(1)(b), Florida Statutes, means a finding of guilt or a conviction of a public entity crime, with or without an adjudication of guilt, in any federal or state trial court of record relating to charges brought by indictment or information after July 1, 1989, as a result of jury verdict, nonjury trial, or entry of a plea of guilty or nolo contendere.

I understand that an "affiliate" as defined in Section 287.133(l)(a), Florida Statutes,
means:

A predecessor or successor of a person convicted of a public entity crime; or,

An entity under the control of any natural person who is active in the management of the entity and who has been convicted of a public entity crime. The term "affiliate" includes those officers, directors, executives, partners, shareholders, employees, members, and agents who are active in the management of an affiliate. The ownership by one person of shares constituting a controlling interest in another person, or a pooling of equipment or income among persons when not for fair market value under an arm's length agreement, shall be a prima facie case that one person controls another
person. A person who knowingly enters into a joint venture with a person who has been convicted of a public entity crime in Florida during the preceding 36 months shall be considered an affiliate.

I understand that a "person" as defined in Section 287.133(1)(e), Florida Statutes, means any natural person or entity organized under the laws of any state or of the United States with the legal power to enter into a binding contract and which proposals or applies to proposal on contracts for the provision of goods or services let by a public entity, or which otherwise transacts or applies to transact business with a public entity. The term "person" includes those officers, directors, executives, partners, shareholders, employees, members, and agents who are active in management of an entity.

Attn: Brittany Brookes

Subject:	Landscape Management Proposal

OmegaScapes, Inc sincerely appreciates the opportunity to present this proposal for landscape maintenance services at Tohoqua Community Development District.
OmegaScapes is a premier full-service provider of commercial grounds maintenance services in the Central Florida area. As a respected local industry professional, we have the good fortune of providing our services for some very prestigious customers in a variety of markets. It would be our pleasure to serve you as well.

We truly hope this information affords OmegaScapes your favorable consideration. Please feel free to review the enclosed proposal package and contact me should you have any questions, require additional information, or would like to schedule a meeting to review our submittal in more detail.

Our team of professionals are ready to begin our partnership with you and to exceed your expectations. The entire OmegaScapes team is looking forward to working with you.

Sincerely,

Jared Berryman VP of Operations

Imagine Landscaping Simplified

Who are we?
Omegascapes, Inc. is a full service, commercial landscape management company headquartered in Orlando, FL. We currently service all of Central Florida and are working our way into the East Coast/Melbourne and Tampa markets. Our services include landscape maintenance, irrigation services, fertilization and pest control, arbor care, and landscape improvements. Our focus is on properties with extensive landscapes that require a high level of detail and attention. Our promise is proactive landscape management with the highest level of customer service in the industry at the best value.

Where did we come from?
Our entire management team and ownership have all worked for the largest companies in our industry, and we feel that Omegascapes has blended the best qualities of a large operation with the benefits of a smaller, family owned business. It is becoming more and more evident that “bigger” isn’t necessarily better in a landscape maintenance company. What really matters is “are you big enough”. Our sister company, Lake Conway Landscaping, specializes in large scale commercial landscape development which is a nice compliment to Omegascapes’ ability to manage those same types of landscapes. With both companies available to you, we have plenty of resources and “muscle” for whatever your needs may be.

What makes Omegascapes different?
The biggest difference is simple: We do what we promise… and we manage ourselves.
Seems too simple, right? Well, what we have discovered by listening to prospective clients for the last five years is that this concept is sorely lacking in the industry. To be successful at this puts a lot of responsibility on us, though. It is much easier to over promise to make a sale… and then under deliver while having lots of excuses. I’m sure many of you have experienced this with other contractors. If we deal with the reality of the challenges and create and execute a plan of success based on achievable goals, we now become your partner and not just another contractor. Why? Because we have helped you and your property achieve the curb appeal that everyone said they could provide but didn’t.

Why should you choose us?

The short answer is… because you are tired of the empty promises and failed executions. Omegascapes is fully committed to raising the bar in our industry one client at a time, one property at a time. We refuse to under bid a property like many of our competitors do just to close a sale. To properly manage a landscape on any given property takes the man-hours it takes every single visit. No company can magically do this consistently for less hours with a smaller crew at a cheaper price. We will dedicate the staff, equipment, and resources to your property to meet the expectations that were agreed upon. We will offer you proactive solutions, and a plan to get it done, and you won’t have to chase us down and beg us to do it. If we discover that budgets are not ideal, we will offer the best plan possible that focuses on the priority areas first so your team, guests, and residents can see the improvements. Omegascapes will bring the right vision, the right plan, the right resources, and the right management to be successful.

We are different. We do what we promise. We make landscaping simplified.

Overview of Tohoqua CDD approach
Omegascapes, Inc. has reviewed the RFP documents, understands the scope of work outlined, and has visited the site to do a full inspection of current conditions. Our approach to the services as described in the scope of services provided is to have an average full-time staff of 6 team members to service the property Monday through Thursday during the peak growing season. We will perform the regular mowing events on all areas during this time, and then detail 1/3 of the shrub beds entirely to meet the RFP scope of 17 times annually. Our team will be policing the entire property each week as well to inspect all areas.

In addition, we will have an irrigation technician on-site an average of 5 days each month to inspect the system as specified. Incidental repairs will be made during this time, while larger repairs will be estimated, approved, and scheduled to be completed within the district’s timeframe. Fertilization and Pest Control services will be handled with monthly visits and applications to fulfill the specifications of the RFP. Reports for both services will be provided to the district as required.

Palm services will be performed twice per year excluding Sabal palms (1x) and mulch once per year as requested. Regular site inspections and walkthrough meetings with client will also occur as requested. Coordination with Irrigation Manager for regular inspections and for any landscape enhancements will be performed as specified to ensure plant material always has the proper water it needs to flourish.

The overall approach taken by Omegascapes is focused on a level of quality that will ensure the
district’s landscape is consistently healthy and aesthetic.

Site Inspection
Current landscape seems to be in reasonable to good health. We observed some malnutrition in shrubs and palms as well as minor weed infestation in certain areas. Some turf areas have common “hot spots” that are wilting due to seasonal temperatures. Mulch looks ok currently and turf appears mostly in good health.

Exclusions
Omegascapes is excluding “maintenance of hardscape – flatwork, columns, fences, and monuments” except for regular inspections, removal of debris created from our landscape services, and management of crack weeds. All other routine, structural, and chemical maintenance of these to be done by others. Omegascapes is also excluding all hardwood tree trimming above 12’, however this can be provided on a proposal basis.

Imagine Landscaping Simplified
2026

Approach to Pruning
Omegascapes uses best management practices for all pruning. This ensures that each plant species or cultivar is specifically cared for by its own individual needs. For shrubs, we will round edges as specified in scope. For palms, we will trim at 10 and 2 o’clock as specified. Tree trimming will be performed as specified as well. Ornamental grasses will be cut back each year in early spring.

Approach to Pest, Weed, and Disease
Control Turf and shrub applications will be on a rotating bi-monthly basis. This means we will be on-site each month inspecting the entire landscape and applying scheduled services. If we identify other issues, they will be addressed while on-site. This is a high level of attention we feel the property is needing. Herbicide in turf and shrub beds will be applied on regular intervals to promote minimal weed presence.

Approach to Maintenance of Hardscape
As mentioned above, Omegascapes is excluding all “maintenance of hardscape – flatwork, columns, fences, and monuments” beyond regular inspections, removal of debris created from our landscape services, and management of crack weeds. Structural and chemical maintenance of these to be done by others. However, the “doggie stations” are included in this bid to be changed once a week, as needed.

Irrigation System
Omegascapes will work closely with the District Irrigation Manager, carefully following the scope specified in the RFP. We have included one Irrigation tech, for 5 days each month for inspections of the district’s irrigation system. Upon our initial property audit, and continuing each inspection, we will submit a written report clearly communicating the status and any concerns we have with the system, as well as a plan to correct if needed.

Staff Levels

An average of a 6-man crew for 42 weeks per year for mowing, and a partial crew 52 weeks for detail services, one irrigation tech, monthly pest control and fertilizer application cycles. Dedicated Account Manager available as needed in addition to regular managing of crew and support staff. Office management and administrative staff available as needed. Owner of company available as needed. Furthermore, our sister company Lake Conway Landscaping and all its staff, equipment, and resources are available as needed as well for larger installation projects.

To Whom it May Concern:

I am writing to wholeheartedly recommend United Land Services for any landscaping projects you may be considering. As the Property Manager for Waterleigh Phase 4 Single Family & Townhome HOA's, I have had the pleasure of working closely with United Land Services on multiple occasions, and I can confidently attest to their exceptional professionalism, expertise, and commitment to excellence.

One example of their commitment to excellence is, when a homeowner called at 7AM on a non-maintenance day with a broken mail line, United's Team displayed remarkable efficiency and professionalism. Within just two hours of the call, they were onsite and swiftly completed the necessary repairs. Their prompt response not only prevented further damage but also minimized inconvenience for the homeowner. Such dedication and commitment to customer service are truly commendable and reflect positively on United's reputation.

Moreover, United Land Services consistently demonstrates a genuine passion for their craft, evident in every aspect of their work. Their dedication to customer satisfaction is unparalleled, and they go above and beyond to ensure that their clients' visions are not only realized but exceeded.

In addition to their technical skills the team at United Land Services is a pleasure to work with. They are approachable, responsive, and collaborative, making the entire process smooth from start to finish.

Based on my experiences, I have complete confidence in United Land Services' ability to deliver outstanding results on any landscaping project they undertake. Their professionalism, creativity, and commitment to excellence make them a truly exceptional partner.

If you have any further questions or require additional information, please do not hesitate to contact me. I am more than happy to provide any assistance I can.

I am certain that you will be as impressed with their work as I have been. Sincerely,

To Whom It May Concern:

I am pleased to offer the following comments regarding United Land Services. United Land Services is contracted to provide lawn and landscape services for the Longleaf Homeowners Association located in Gainesville, Florida.

Company services were initiated on January 1, 2024, and services continue to the present time. The transition to United Land Services from our former provider was better than anticipated. Such transitions may be a challenge however United Land Services' direct communications made the process easier.

United Land Services' management team continues to meet with the HOA Board President and myself monthly to ensure the proper delivery of landscape services as well as special projects. The company implemented an on-line work order system known as issuetrak. I am optimistic this work order system will provide direct communications between the company and HOA owners.

Please do not hesitate to contact me should you require additional information regarding United Land Services' performance.

Scope of Services Summary
and Site Maps
EXHIBIT 1 TOHOQUA SCOPE OF WORK

The work for the exterior landscape maintenance is to include the furnishing of all labor, materials, equipment, accessories and services necessary or incidental to sustain all turf and plant materials in a healthy, vigorous growing condition, free from weeds, diseases, insects, and nutritional deficiencies as well as a completely operational irrigation system. All associated planted areas are to be kept in a continuous healthy, neat, clean and debris free condition for the entire life of the contract.

SCHEDULE "A" - GENERAL SERVICES

Turf Maintenance
Turf maintenance is defined as all mowing, edging, trimming and cleanup of lawn areas. Turf maintenance operations are to be completed the same day they are begun. High traffic and high profile areas such as front doors and amenity areas will be completely mowed, edged, trimmed and cleaned up prior to normal business hours of operation. In the event it becomes necessary to make a change in the mowing schedule for any reason, the owner or owner's representative must be notified prior to adjustment of schedule. Mowing during inclement weather will not alleviate the contractor of responsibility for damage caused by the mowing of wet areas.

Mowing

Prior to mowing, remove and dispose of normal litter and debris from all landscape areas.

Zoysia, St. Agustine and Bahia turf shall be mowed weekly during the growing season from March 15th through October 15th and bi-weekly during the non-growing season from October 15th through March 15th. Based on the schedule,, it is estimated that the contractor will be perfoming and estimated 40/42 mowing cycles per 12 month period.

Zoysia, St. Augustine and Bahia turf shall be cut with rotary mower to maintain a uniform height. Mowing blades shall be kept sufficiently sharp and properly adjusted to provide a cleanly cut grass blade. Mowing pattern shall be varied where feasible to prevent rutting and minimize compaction.

Mowing heights will be set at 1½" to 2½" for Zoysia turf and at 3½" to 4½" for St. Augustine and Bahia turf. At no time will mowing height be reduced so that more than 1/3 of the grass blade is removed at any cutting. Due to irrigation regulations and periods of drought, with approval from owner or owner's representative, heights may be increased to decrease turf damage.
Visible clippings that may be left following mowing operations shall be removed from the turf each visit. Discharging grass clippings into beds, tree rings or maintenance strips is unacceptable and any visible clippings discharged into these areas shall be removed prior to the end of each service day.

Contractor will take special care to prevent damage to plant material as a result of the mowing operations. Any damage caused by contractors mowing equipment may result in the replacement of damaged material at the contractor's cost. Determination as to replacement will be at the sole discretion of the owner or owner's representative. Replacement material will be similar size to the material being replaced.
Edging
Sidewalks, curbs, concrete slabs and other paved surfaces will be edged in conjunction with mowing operations. Edging is defined as removal of unwanted turf from the above mentioned borders by use of a mechanical edger. String trimmers will not be used for this function.
String Trimming
String Trimming shall be performed around road signs, guard posts, trees, shrubs, utility poles, and other obstacles where mowers cannot reach. Grass shall be trimmed to the same desired height as determined by the mowing operation. Trimming shall be completed in conjunction with each mowing operation.
Under no circumstance will it be an acceptable practice to string trim bed edges or small turf areas that may be cut utilizing a small walk behind mower.
Maintaining grass-free areas by use of chemicals may be the preferred method in certain applications. Such use will only be done with prior approval of the owner or the owner's representative.
Turf around the edge of all waterways shall be mowed or string trimmed to the natural water's edge during each mowing cycle.
Blowing
When using forced air machinery to clean curbs, sidewalks and other paved surfaces, care must be taken to prevent blowing grass clippings into beds, onto vehicles or onto other hardscape surfaces.
Detail
Detailing of planted areas will be performed weekly in a sectional method, with each section representing one-third of the entire property. Based on three sections that encompass all planted areas throughout property, the contractor will completely detail the entire property once every three weeks. The exception will be amenity or high profile areas. These are high traffic and focal areas and as such will be included in each detail section to provide weekly attention. The detailing process will include trimming, pruning and shaping of all shrubbery, ornamental trees and groundcover, removal of tree suckers, structural pruning or cutbacks of select varieties of plant material as directed, as well as the defining of bed lines, tree saucers and the removal of all unwanted vegetation.

Pruning
Prune trees, shrubs and groundcovers to encourage healthy growth and create a natural appearance. Prune to control the new plant growth, maintain the desired plant shape and remove dead, damaged, or diseased portions of the plant. Provide remedial attention and repair to plant material as appropriate to season or in response to incidental damage.
Only Contractor's staff that have been trained and demonstrate competency in proper pruning techniques shall perform pruning. Use only hand pruners or loppers on trees and shrubs, particularly groundcover Juniper varieties. Hand shears or Topiary shears will be the preferred method of trimming most formal shrubs. Only use power shears on formal hedges where previous practice was to shear, or as directed by owner or owner's representative.
Pruning of trees up to a height of 12 feet is included in the scope of the work. If pruning is required above the height of 12 feet contractor shall propose an extra service to the owner's representative and acquire approval prior to performing the work. The branching height of trees shall be raised only for the following reasons:
Provide clearance for pedestrians, vehicles, mowers and buildings.
Maintain clearance from shrubs in bed areas.
Improve visibility in parking lots and around entries.
Prune trees to remove weak branching patterns and provide corrective pruning for proper development. Cut back to branch collar without leaving stubs. Provide clean and flush cut with no tearing of the tree bark.
Prune all shrubbery in accordance with the architectural intent as it relates to adjacent plantings and intended function.
Prune to contain perimeter growth within intended bed areas. Established groundcover shall be maintained 4" to 6" away from adjacent hardscape and turf. Bevel or roll leading edges to avoid creating a harsh boxed look. Mature groundcover shall be maintained at a consistent, level height to provide a smooth and even appearance and separation from adjacent plant material.
Structural pruning may be required for several varieties of plants annually or semi-annually to maintain their scale and performance within the landscape. The methodology employed is to structurally prune one plant group throughout the entire property during the sectional detail rotation. Following this schedule, all structural pruning should be completed within a six week cycle each time it is performed. Ornamental grasses are to be haystack cut one time per year.
Crape Myrtles are to be trimmed once per year in the winter months. Trimming should include removal of old blooms, sucker growth and any cross branching. Trimming should be done in such a way that cuts are no less than 12" away from previous year's cuts. "Hat Racking" will not be permitted unless directed otherwise by the owner or owner's representative.
Pruning of all palms less than 12' CT in height will be included in the sectional rotation. Pruning consists of removal of all dead fronds, seedpods and any loose boots.
Edging
Edging is defined as removal of unwanted vegetation along beds and tree saucers. Edges are to be perpendicular to the ground.
Only mechanical edgers will be used for this function. Use of string trimmers or non selective herbicides will not be allowed.
Care will be taken to maintain bed edges as designed in either straight or curvilinear lines.
Weed Control
Bed areas are to be left in a weed free condition after each detail service. While pre and post-emergent chemicals are acceptable means of control, weeds in bed areas larger than 3" shall be pulled by hand.
Hardscape cracks and expansion joints are to be sprayed in conjunction with the detail cycle to control weeds. Chemical practices shall not be a substitute for hand weeding where the latter is required for complete removal.
General

Policing
Contractor will police the grounds daily or on each service visit to remove trash, debris and fallen tree litter less than 2" in diameter. Contractor is not responsible for removal of excessive storm debris which would be performed with prior approval at the labor rates specified in "Exhibit - 3 Extra Services Pricing Summary".

All litter shall be removed from the property and disposed of off site.

Communication

Daily, the contractor will communicate with the owner or the owner's representative for any landscape issues requiring immediate attention.

Communication is of the utmost importance. Contractor will provide a weekly written report in a form approved by the owner or owner's representative which details all aspects of the previous week's maintenance activities.

Contractor will provide a Monthly Irrigation Maintenance report and Lawn and Ornamental report.

Contractor agrees to take part in property inspections with the COD field manager to insure their performance of this agreement meets the standards required herein and protects the overall well being of the property's landscape. Contractor also agrees to complete any work that appears on punch lists resulting from inspections or reviews within three weeks of receiving them. Contractor will have their Account Manager participate on its behalf and have their Lawn and Ornamental and Irrigation Managers or Technicians available for a minimum of the pre inspection meeting.

Staffing

Contractor is expected to staff the property with properly trained personnel, five days per week, Monday through Friday. Holidays observed that do not require staffing include New Year's Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day. Normal working hours are from 7:00 AM until 6:00 PM, with no power equipment operating around residences before 8:30 AM.

Consistent with Florida's Prompt Payment Act, section 218.70, et seq., Florida Statutes, these monthly invoices are due and payable within forty-five (45) days of receipt by the District.
Payments by Contractor. Subject to the terms herein, Contractor will promptly pay in cash for all costs of labor, materials, services and equipment used in the performance of the Work, and upon the request of the District, Contractor will provide proof of such payment. Contractor agrees that it shall comply with Section 218.735(6), Florida Statutes, requiring payments to subcontractors, material men, suppliers or laborers be made within ten (10) days of receipt of payment from the District. The District may require, as a condition precedent to making any payment to Contractor, that all subcontractors, material men, suppliers or laborers be paid and require evidence, in the form of Lien Releases or partial Waivers of Lien, to be submitted to the District by those

The District shall provide thirty (30) days' written notice of termination without cause. Any termination by the District shall not result in liability for consequential damages, lost profits, or any other damages or liability. However, upon any termination of this Agreement by the District, the Contractor shall be entitled to payment for all Work and/or services rendered up until the effective termination of this Agreement, subject to whatever claims or off-sets the District may have against the Contractor. In the event of a default by Contractor, the District may elect not to terminate the Agreement, and instead to demand that Contractor cure any failure constituting default and make appropriate deduction or revision to the payment to become due to Contractor. Furthermore, the District reserves the right to pursue any and all available remedies under the law, including but not limited to equitable and legal remedies and withhold payment pending outcome of such dispute.

INSURANCE.
Insurance Required. Before commencing any Work, the Contractor shall furnish the District with a Certificate of Insurance evidencing compliance with the requirements of this section.

Insurance coverage shall be primary and written on forms acceptable to the District. Additionally, insurance coverage shall be from a reputable insurance carrier, licensed to conduct business in the State of Florida, and such carrier shall have a Best's Insurance Reports rating of A-VII.

Insurer(s), with the exception of Workers' Compensation on non-leased employees, shall agree to waive all rights of subrogation against the District and its supervisors, officers, staff, agents, employees, and representatives.

Payment of Premiums. The Contractor shall be solely responsible for payment of all premiums for insurance contributing to the satisfaction of this Agreement and shall be solely responsible for the payment of all deductibles and retentions to which such policies are subject, whether or not the District is an insured under the policy.

the insured.
Failure to Provide Insurance. The District shall retain the right to review, at any time, coverage, form, and amount of insurance. If the Contractor fails to have secured and maintained the required insurance, the District has the right (without any obligation to do so, however), to secure such required insurance in which event, the Contractor shall pay the cost for that required insurance to the District and shall furnish, upon demand, all information that may be required in connection with the District's obtaining the required insurance. If Contractor fails to pay such cost to the District, the District may deduct such amount from any payment due the Contractor.
INDEMNIFICATION.

The Contractor shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless, the District, the District's Board of Supervisors, District staff and the District's agents, officers, employees, contractors, and representatives from and against any and all liability, actions, claims, demands, loss, damage, injury, or harm of any nature whatsoever, arising from the acts or omissions of Contractor, or the Contractor's officers, directors, agents, assigns, employees, subcontractors, or representatives.

The Contractor agrees that nothing in this Agreement shall serve as or be construed as a waiver of the District's or its staff, supervisors or consultant's limitations on liability contained in section 768.28, Florida Statutes, or other law. Any subcontractor retained by the Contractor shall acknowledge the same in writing, and it shall be Contractor's responsibility to secure such acknowledgments. Further, nothing herein shall be construed to limit or restrict the District's rights against the Contractor under applicable law.
It is understood and agreed that this Agreement is not a construction contract as that term is referenced in Section 725.06, Florida Statutes, and that said statutory provision does not govern, restrict or control this Agreement

Since 2008, we’ve been linked by a common goal to better serve our clients, sharing decades of experience in landscape design and installation, tree care services, snow removal services and landscape maintenance. As one of the landscape industry’s fastest growing and most respected commercial landscaping companies, we proudly serve more than 8000 clients from 69 local branch operations facilities in 18 states across the United States.

Landscape Maintenance

Landscape Maintenance is all about the details. We’re committed to getting the details right, so you can enjoy your landscape and take pride in its appearance.
From week to week, month to month, and year to year, there are hundreds of details that need to be coordinated for your landscape to looks its best. Assuring that none of those details are overlooked requires a professionally administered, integrated Landscape Maintenance program.
Synchronizing routine maintenance activities like mowing, edging, weeding, trimming and clean-up, with fertilization and pest management
applications, and your irrigation system’s schedule and maintenance is no easy task.
That’s why we incorporate all the details of our landscape services into your Plan for SuccessTM.
Our Landscape Maintenance teams are trained in our industry’s Best Practices. They behave as if they were a part of your staff and work
hard to solve problems while they’re still called opportunities. If the unexpected happens, our teams respond to correct the problem, quickly and professionally.
Your dedicated Account Manager will provide regular updates about what we’re doing to maintain your landscape. Our goal is to provide you with all the information you need about your landscape, when you need it.

As a leader in the landscaping industry we have an added responsibility to be good stewards of our natural resources. We also understand that many clients have become keenly aware of the need to reduce their environmental impact.
Our initiatives toward responsible environmental stewardship include:

Our Technology at Work for You

Technology in the landscape industry is rapidly evolving. Yellowstone Landscape is taking advantage of this innovation to improve our communication, tracking, and billing systems, allowing us to offer more efficient service visits and faster response times for our clients.
Over a decade ago, we began issuing smart phones to all our field service supervisors and technical specialists, but as new products have come to market, Yellowstone has continued to improve our technological capabilities.
All Yellowstone Landscape fleet vehicles are equipped with GPS tracking devices, enabling us to see where our vehicles are at any given time,
and how long our service crews spend at each property. GPS tracking also enables our Safety teams to make sure our drivers are obeying speed limits and traffic laws.
In addition to field level improvements, Yellowstone continues to lead the industry with real time reporting on costs and labor utilization, enabling us to produce monthly service billings at greater than 99% accuracy. We even integrate with most major accounting systems, to help you automate your procurement system’s payment processes.
We will remain technological leaders in our industry and as technology improves, so will we.

Safety Training Policies

Onboarding
At the time of onboarding the employee is required to read the safety guide to become familiar with our safety policies and protocols which includes proper use of equipment, general safety rules and disciplinary actions regarding safety violations. Upon completion the employee is required to complete a safety quiz to determine comprehension of the information. Any questions answered incorrectly are then discussed with the employee to better explain and educate them on the safety requirements. PPE is given to each new employee and their proper use covered.

Equipment Training and Competency
Before an employee is given a piece of equipment to operate, they are assessed by their immediate supervisor or the shop manager as to their level of competency. If they do not show the level of competency required to operate the equipment, they are then trained on the operation and safety features of the equipment. No employee is allowed to operate equipment if they do not display full competency.

Weekly Safety Training
Branches are required to hold a weekly tailgate safety talk. Meetings are to be scheduled in advance and topics approved by the Branch Manager. Branches are also allowed to hold bi-weekly meetings on two topics per training with the approval of the Field Support Office Safety Team. A total of four topics per
month are required. Mandatory topics are rolled out monthly for the upcoming month’s trainings. Content is provided in both English and Spanish. Documentation of each safety training is uploaded into our cloud files.

Monthly Safety Training
Branches are required to hold a monthly safety meeting for all management level personnel including mechanics. Safety reports pertinent to incidents for the month and covering DART and TRIR are provided. Management and crew trainings for the upcoming month are rolled out during these meetings.
Semi-Annually or Annually – Safety Rodeos are held at each branch every 6-12 months. Equipment use and safety features, first aid, PPE use, truck and trailer safety, Defensive Parking, and chemical safety are some of the required topics. Branches also provide additional training on areas pertinent to their branch operations.

Follow Up Training
In the case of an incident the branch is required to share the incident with the crews and cover what happened and how it could have been prevented. Employees are reminded of our PPE requirements and retrained on the topic relative to the incident.

Form W•9
(Rev. March 2024)
Department of the Treasury Internal Revenue Service
Request for Taxpayer Identification Number and Certification
Go to www.irs.gov/FormW9 for instructions and the latest information.

Give form to the requester. Do not send to the IRS.
Before you begin. For guidance related to the purpose of Form W-9, see Purpose of Form, below.

Enter your TIN in the appropriate box. The TIN provided must match the name given on line 1 to avoid backup withholding. For individuals, this is generally your social security number (SSN). However, for a resident alien, sole proprietor, or disregarded entity, see the instructions for Part I, later. For other entities, it is your employer identification number (EIN). If you do not have a number, see How to get a TIN, later.
[Il]-ITJ-11111

Under penalties of perjury, I certify that:
The number shown on this form is my correct taxpayer identification number (or I am waiting for a number to be issued to me); and
I am not subject to backup withholding because (a) I am exempt from backup withholding, or (b) I have not been notified by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) that I am subject to backup withholding as a result of a failure to report all interest or dividends, or (c) the IRS has notified me that I am no longer subject to backup withholding; and
I am a U.S. citizen or other U.S. person (defined below); and
The FATCA code(s) entered on this form (if any) indicating that I am exempt from FATCA reporting is correct.
Certification instructions. You must cross out item 2 above if you have been notified by the IRS that you are currently subject to backup withholding because you have failed to report all interest and dividends on your tax return. For real estate transactions, item 2 does not apply. For mortgage interest paid, acquisition or abandonment of secured property, cancellation of debt, contributions to an individual retirement arrangement (IRA), and, generally, payments other than interest and dividends, you are not required to sign the certification, but you must provide your correct TIN. See the instructions for Part 11, later.

General Instructions
Section references are to the Internal Revenue Code unless otherwise noted.
Future developments. For the latest information about developments related to Form W-9 and its instructions, such as legislation enacted after they were published, go to www.irs.gov/FormW9.
What's New
Line 3a has been modified to clarify how a disregarded entity completes this line. An LLC that is a disregarded entity should check the appropriate box for the tax classification of its owner. Otherwise, it should check the "LLC" box and enter its appropriate tax classification.

Cat. No. 10231X
New line 3b has been added to this form.

Services for Public Sector Clients

We are proud to serve Public Sector clients across the South, and to be a part of some tremendously successful projects beautifying our local communities. We understand the challenges that local governments and agencies face in managing their public green spaces.
Public parks, trails, and streetscapes create unique opportunities to enrich the lives of your community’s residents. Investing in professional landscape services delivers a consistently high-quality appearance, and does so at a lower cost than in-house grounds maintenance services.

Landscape Design and Installation teams, ready to deliver beautiful landscape enhancements and installations. When we continue to maintain the project for you, we can even extend our normal warranty on installed plant materials.
We’ll also work with you to identify any possible liabilities or hazards in your community’s public spaces. With services like raising tree canopies and making sure drains are kept clear of debris, our Landscape Professionals partner with you
to keep your residents safe from hazards. And, in case of a natural disaster or extreme weather event, our crews will be there to assist with clean up after the storms have passed.

Re: Approach to Landscape Maintenance Services for Tohoqua Community Development District

Dear Mr. Flint and Board,

In the following document we will break down our landscape approach to services for Tohoqua CDD.

Project Approach Breakdown

Crew size could vary to balance workload depending on the season and status of installation for future areas. At the end of the day, we are a quality-based company and will always do what is right to create a successful partnership with your team.
