MINUTES OF MEETING BELLA COLLINA COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT The regular meeting of the Board of Supervisors of the Bella Collina Community Development District was held Thursday, December 12, 2024 at 10:00 a.m. at the Bella Collina Clubhouse, 16350 Vetta Drive, Montverde, Florida. Present and constituting a quorum were: Randal Greene Chairman David Burman Vice Chairman Duane Owen Assistant Secretary Andy Gorrill Assistant Secretary Rick Scharich Assistant Secretary Also present were: George Flint District Manager Jay Lazarovich District Counsel Robert Szozda Field Manager Steve Boyd District Engineer FIRST ORDER OF BUSINESS Roll Call Mr. Flint called the meeting to order. Five Board members were present in person constituting a quorum. SECOND ORDER OF BUSINESS Public Comment Period Mr. Flint: Next is public comment period and we don’t have any members of the public here. THIRD ORDER OF BUSINESS Organizational Matters A. Appointment of Individuals to Fulfill the Vacancies in Seat #2 & Seat #5 Mr. Flint: We will move on to organizational Matters. We added this to the agenda from what was emailed out. As the Board recalls, Seat #2 and Seat #5, we’ve triggered the two criteria that start the process of the Board changing from a Landowner Elected Board to a General Election Board. That is six years in existence and 250 registered voters. This year, the first two seats transition to general election. That was Seat #2 and Seat #5. Seat #2 is occupied by Rocky and Docusign Envelope ID: 70057F71-F19C-4E9C-87A3-E10349590A83 December 12, 2024 Bella Collina CDD 2 Seat #5 by Rick. No one qualified in June to run for those seats through the Supervisor of Elections office and you all adopted a resolution declaring these seats vacant as of November 19, which is the second Tuesday after election. The resolution indicates that the incumbents will carry over in those seats until such time as the Board appoints a general elector, but you have a duty to put general electors in the seats. I think what the Board may want to consider today because, Rick, as a general elector, you reside within the District and you register to vote with that address? Mr. Scharich: Yes. Mr. Flint: Okay. I think he can resign and then the Board can reappoint him as a general elector. Mr. Scharich: Yes. Mr. Flint: I think that would be step one. It would be for Rick to resign on the record. The Board would make a motion to accept the resignation and then you could consider an appointment to that seat. If the Board wants to appoint Rick to the seat, you could reappoint him as a general elector. We have to go through the process. Mr. Scharich: With great regret, I am going to resign. Mr. Flint: For the record, Rick has resigned Seat #5. Is there a motion to accept his resignation? Mr. Greene: I make a motion. On MOTION by Mr. Greene, seconded by Mr. Burman, with all in favor, Accepting Resignation from Rick Scharich, was approved 4- 0. Mr. Flint: Are there any nominations to fill that vacant seat? Mr. Burman: I nominate Rick Scharich. On MOTION by Mr. Burman, seconded by Mr. Greene, with all in favor, Appointing Rick Scharich to Seat #5 of the Board of Supervisors, was approved 4-0. Mr. Flint: As a citizen of the State of Florida and of the United States of America, and as an officer of the Bella Collina Community Development District, and a recipient of public funds, do you hereby solemnly swear or affirm that you will support the constitution of the United States and of the State of Florida. Docusign Envelope ID: 70057F71-F19C-4E9C-87A3-E10349590A83 December 12, 2024 Bella Collina CDD 3 Mr. Scharich: I do. Mr. Flint: If you wouldn’t mind signing where it says Board Supervisor. Now, the other seat is occupied by Rocky. What we’ll need to do here is Rocky will need to resign and then if the desire is to appoint Mr. Greene into that seat because Mr. Greene is a general elector, then Mr. Greene can resign. You are down to three Board members. Those three Board members can appoint Mr. Greene to Rocky’s vacated seat. Then, if Rocky wants to remain on the Board, you can appoint him to Randal’s seat. Mr. Greene: I resign. Mr. Flint: Mr. Greene and Rocky, do you both resign? Mr. Owen: Yes. Mr. Flint: Is there a motion to accept those resignations? Mr. Burman: So moved. On MOTION by Mr. Burman, seconded by Mr. Gorrill, with all in favor, Accepting Resignations from Mr. Randall Greene and Mr. Duane Owen, was approved 3-0. Mr. Flint: Now we’ve got two vacancies. One of the seats is a general elector seat. Are there any nominations for that seat? Mr. Gorrill: Randall Greene. Mr. Burman: Second. On MOTION by Mr. Gorrill, seconded by Mr. Burman, with all in favor, Appointing Randall Greene to Seat #2 of the Board of Supervisors, was approved 3-0. Mr. Flint: Randall, as a citizen of the State of Florida and of the United States of America, and as an officer of the Bella Collina Community Development District, and a recipient of public funds as such officer, do you hereby solemnly swear or affirm that you will support the constitution of the United States and of the State of Florida. Mr. Greene: I do. Mr. Flint: Sign where it says Board Supervisor and I can notarize it for you. Alright. That was appointing Randall Greene to Seat #2. Randall’s former Seat #3 is vacant. Are there any nominations to fill that vacancy? Docusign Envelope ID: 70057F71-F19C-4E9C-87A3-E10349590A83 December 12, 2024 Bella Collina CDD 4 Mr. Greene: I nominate Rocky.

Mr. Flint: Rocky, as a citizen of the State of Florida and of the United States of America, and as an officer of the Bella Collina Community Development District, and a recipient of public funds as such officer, do you hereby solemnly swear or affirm that you will support the constitution of the United States and of the State of Florida. Mr. Owen: I do. Mr. Flint: Alright. Now we are back to five Board members. B. Administration of Oaths of Office to Newly Elected Board Members Mr. Flint administered the oath to the newly elected Board members. C. Resolution 2025-07 Electing Officers Mr. Lazarovich: I don’t see that we have a resolution where it should be appointing officers. Mr. Flint: Yes.

You have currently Randall as Chair, David as Vice Chair, the other three Board members Assistant Secretaries, Jill Burns in my office as Treasurer, I’m secretary and Darrin Mossing, Sr. is Assistant Treasurer. You could make a motion to keep the same officers, or you could change those if you choose to. Mr. Greene: I make a motion to keep it the same. On MOTION by Mr. Greene, seconded by Mr. Scharich, with all in favor, Resolution 2025-07 Electing Officers as slated above, was approved. FOURTH ORDER OF BUSINESS Approval of Minutes of the November 14, 2024 Board of Supervisors Meeting and Acceptance of the November 14, 2024 Landowners Meeting Minutes Mr. Flint: Item four is approval of the minutes from the November 14th Board meeting and acceptance of the minutes from the November 14th Landowner meeting. Were there any comments Docusign Envelope ID: 70057F71-F19C-4E9C-87A3-E10349590A83 December 12, 2024 Bella Collina CDD 5 or questions to either of those? Is there a motion to approve the Board minutes and accept the Landowner minutes? Mr. Gorrill: I make a motion to approve the minutes. On MOTION by Mr. Gorrill, seconded by Mr. Burman, with all in favor, the Minutes of the November 14, 2024 Board of Supervisors Meeting were approved, and the minutes of the November 14, 2024 Landowners Meeting Minutes, were accepted. FIFTH ORDER OF BUSINESS Ratification of Series 2024 Requisitions #6 - #10 – Modified Mr. Flint: Item five, we added ratification of the Series 2024 Requisitions #6 through #10. These are requisitions associated with the irrigation bond issue that you all recently issued. They’ve been reviewed and approved by Jim Boyd as Consulting Engineer. They’ve also been reviewed and signed off by Steve Boyd who is your District Engineer. Then, they were signed by an authorized officer of the District submitted to the Trustee for payment. We’re just including them in the agenda for ratification. Board approval is not required to process these, but we like to put them in the agenda to get them into the record. Are there any questions on any of the requisitions? Is there a motion to ratify requisition #6 through #10? Mr. Greene: I make a motion to approve. On MOTION by Mr. Greene, seconded by Mr. Owen, with all in favor, the Series 2024 Requisitions #6 - #10, were ratified. SIXTH ORDER OF BUSINESS Acceptance of Audit Committee Recommendation and Selection of an Auditor Mr. Flint: The Board met as the Audit Committee just prior to the Board meeting. You as the Audit Committee reviewed and ranked two responses. They ranked DiBartolomeo, McBee, Hartley & Barnes #1 with 98 points and Grau & Associates #2 with 90. The main difference in those being the price. A motion would be in order for the Board to accept the Audit Committee’s recommendations rank the responses one and two, and authorize staff to negotiate with DiBartolomeo, McBee, Hartley & Barnes. In the event that they are not able to negotiate, they could move to #2, which would be Grau & Associates. Is there a motion to that effect? Mr. Greene: I make that motion. Mr. Scharich: Second. Docusign Envelope ID: 70057F71-F19C-4E9C-87A3-E10349590A83 December 12, 2024 Bella Collina CDD 6 On MOTION by Mr. Greene, seconded by Mr. Scharich, with all in favor, Accepting the Audit Committee’s Recommendations Rank the Responses One and Two and Authorize Staff to Negotiate with DiBartolomeo, McBee, Hartley & Barnes, was approved. SEVENTH ORDER OF BUSINESS Consideration of Resolution 2025-05 Approving the Conveyance of Property from the POA to CDD Mr. Flint: Item seven is Resolution 2025-05. I’ll turn the next two over to you, Jay. Mr. Lazarovich: Yes. Resolution 2025-05 is accepting the conveyance from the POA to the CDD for stormwater ponds. There has been some discussion on these to turn them over and we prepared our standard conveyance documents that includes a special warranty deed to transfer the real property or the bill of sale to transfer the improvements as well as an owners affidavit, which is just a contract with a POA that there is no title encumbrances on the property as well as an agreement regarding taxes and a certificate of District Engineer. We are looking for a motion to approve subject to title review. We are just waiting on that order back. So, we’ll just look for a motion subject to title review. Mr. Flint: Any questions on the resolution? Mr. Greene: I make a motion to approve. On MOTION by Mr. Greene, seconded by Mr. Owen, with all in favor, Resolution 2025-05 Approving the Conveyance of Property from the POA to CDD, was approved subject to title review. EIGHTH ORDER OF BUSINESS Consideration of Resolution 2025-06 Approving the Conveyance of Property from the Developer to CDD Mr. Lazarovich: Resolution 2025-06 is a similar resolution. This is transferring two ponds from the developer to the CDD. It’s the same form documents and also subject to title review. Mr. Greene: Is that the south pond? Mr. Lazarovich: It is. I believe so yes. Cavallo Drive. Mr. Greene: Cavallo. That’s the south pond. What’s the other pond? Just to confirm. Mr. Scharich: It’s on the right-hand side that connects with Bridgewood. Mr. Lazarovich: So, there is one more on the north? Mr. Scharich: Yes. Docusign Envelope ID: 70057F71-F19C-4E9C-87A3-E10349590A83 December 12, 2024 Bella Collina CDD 7 Mr. Lazarovich: Ok. I will look for a motion subject to title review and potentially adding an additional pond to this one. Mr. Flint: Steve, are you on? Mr. Boyd: I am on. I am having a little bit of trouble hearing. Mr. Flint: Okay. We were just discussing what ponds were included. Mr. Boyd: Yes. It’s the pond as you come in to Pine Island through the gate. Not Pine Island, but you come in to the roundabout and it’s on your right. There is a pond immediately on the right. That is one of the ponds that is being transferred. The other two or other three on Bolsena Drive. There is two lines in a single tract on north of Bolsena Drive. Then there is a small pond on the west side of Bolsena Drive just as you come in on the County Road 455, just to the left, that entrance. This is a pond being transferred right now. There are no remaining ponds that need to be transferred. Mr. Lazarovich: So that one should have been covered in the POA pond. Mr. Boyd: There is three tracts essentially, but four ponds. Two of the ponds are on the same tract. Mr. Flint: The motion would be to approve it in substantial form and subject to verification. Mr. Lazarovich: And title review, yes. Mr. Flint: And title review. Mr. Gorrill: I make that motion. On MOTION by Mr. Gorrill seconded by Mr. Greene, with all in favor, Resolution 2025-06 Approving the Conveyance of Property from the Developer to CDD, was approved in substantial form subject to verification and title review. NINTH ORDER OF BUSINESS Staff Reports A. Attorney Mr. Flint: Staff reports. Jay, anything else? Mr. Lazarovich: I have no other updates for the Board this month. Thanks. B. Engineer Mr. Flint: Steve, any report for the Board? Docusign Envelope ID: 70057F71-F19C-4E9C-87A3-E10349590A83 December 12, 2024 Bella Collina CDD 8 Mr. Boyd: Just the status of permitting for the irrigation system in wells and ponds. We are currently responding to comments from Lake County and Water Management District, so we should have those resubmitted next week. Mr. Flint: Okay. C. District Manager’s Report i. Approval of Check Register Mr. Flint: You have the approval of the check register that is in your agenda for the month of November for the general fund, water and sewer fund, water and sewer reserve fund, and then the Board compensation totaling $1,683,306.67. Any questions on this? One of the checks you’ll see, there is a check to DCS Real Estate Investments for $1,378,206. For the record, what that is there is a Developer Agreement that obligated the developer to there was a takedown schedule and capital charges that were pledged to pay debt service. If the homes were constructed, the capital fees weren’t paid in accordance with the take down schedule, the developer had to advance those funds to be able to pay the debt service and then they were entitled to be reimbursed those prepayments. We’ve been tracking that because obviously the real estate market took a significant downturn and Gan was required to advance significant funds to keep the debt service in good standing. When DCS Investments purchased the project, part of the deal was they would be entitled to the reimbursement that Gan prepaid and there was no amendment to the Developer Agreement that recognized that now DCS stood in the shoes of Gan previously on that agreement. The debt has been paid off and we’ve been tracking the payment of those connections fees for purposes of reimbursing the developer under those advance payments. This amount represents the amount from FY 2023 that the DCS is entitled to be reimbursed. There is an amount calculated for 2024. We haven’t made that payment yet because we’re still closing out FY 2024. Once the audit is complete, we will make that payment. They’ll be entitled to be reimbursed up to the amount of the advance that was originally paid. Mr. Scharich: Is there any amount due? Do we know the difference between the developers contributions and the developers loan balance total? Because I’m assuming there is no contribution left to the developer. Mr. Flint: No. That debt has been paid off that that agreement applied to. The debt has been retired, but the advances were being carried as a liability. Then, once the debt was paid off, we continue to collect connection fees until all the 800 and something homes, it’s more than that, 860, Docusign Envelope ID: 70057F71-F19C-4E9C-87A3-E10349590A83 December 12, 2024 Bella Collina CDD 9 are completed. We’ll continue to collect those connection fees even though there is no debt. What will end up happening is those will go to reimburse DCS until their fully reimbursed for their original advance. Mr. Greene: Do we know what the balance is in total? Mr. Flint: We have a schedule. I can get it for you. I don’t off the top of my head. But there will be fees. And the other caveat to that is when that Developer Agreement was amended, it required that a capital reserve be established prior to the developer being reimbursed. Because what we didn’t want was the developer getting every penny out of these capital charges and then District being in the position where they had no capital reserve for renewal and replacement. They approved a capital reserve study, if you remember. What was it, $2,300,000? Mr. Owen: $2,600,000. Mr. Flint: $2,600,000. The capital reserve study indicated that we needed $2,600,000 in the capital reserve. That capital reserve was fully funded before this payment was made. Mr. Scharich: Do you know what our interest rate is to the developer? Mr. Flint: We’re not paying interest. Mr. Scharich: Oh. He doesn’t charge interest. Mr. Flint: The agreement doesn’t contemplate interest. Mr. Scharich: Ok. Mr. Flint: It could be forever, but no, the amount doesn’t continue to grow with interest. It’s just being repaid at the original amount that was paid. I feel like you were negotiating that agreement. Mr. Scharich: I’ve been in the developers shoes on several projects. Mr. Flint: Well, this was in advance, I guess. Mr. Scharich: It’s nice that we got that from Gan. Mr. Scharich: Well, it’s part of the deal. Mr. Flint: Yes. I don’t know any of the details about their negotiation on the acquisition of the project. Mr. Scharich: Right. Mr. Flint: But their agreement was amended and put them in the shoes of Gan. Mr. Scharich: Right. Mr. Burman: Is it on our balance sheet? Has it been all along? Docusign Envelope ID: 70057F71-F19C-4E9C-87A3-E10349590A83 December 12, 2024 Bella Collina CDD 10 Mr. Flint: Yes. Mr. Burman: Ok. Mr. Flint: Yes. We’ve been tracking this. There is an agreement between the District and the developer. There was original between the District and Gan and then it was amended as DCS is a party to that agreement. The good thing is we were able to fund the capital reserve before we had to make any repayments, so it didn’t create a situation where every bit of cash that was generated from those capital payments was paid out and then the District was in a situation where they didn’t have any ability to repair the plans or replace anything. I just wanted to put that on the record because that is a large amount. Are there any questions on the check register? If not, is there a motion to approve it? Mr. Greene: I make a motion to approve. Mr. Scharich: Second. On MOTION by Mr. Greene, seconded by Mr. Scharich, with all in favor, the Check Register, was approved. ii. Balance Sheet and Income Statement Mr. Flint: We have the balance sheet and income statement as well. This is through November 30th, so this is the first two months of FY 25. There’s no action required. If the Board has any questions, we can discuss those. iii. SBA Florida PRIME Monthly Summary Report Mr. Flint: We also have the monthly summary report for the SBA, which is the state investment pool that we use for investment purposes. D. Field Managers Report Mr. Flint: Field Manager’s report, Rob? Mr. Szozda: Ok. I have a few items. We’re 100% complete with getting the stickers on the grinder station control panels. So, you go there, it’s got a number to call and give you directions. People are following that because when they are calling out, they are like, “I can’t take a shower, can you hurry up and get out here.” So, they are paying attention to that. Also, I think we at least have some evidence that getting the information out on what you can put down your drains is working as well because we’ve had a few alarms and we’ve questioned the people afterwards and Docusign Envelope ID: 70057F71-F19C-4E9C-87A3-E10349590A83 December 12, 2024 Bella Collina CDD 11 they are like, “Hey, I am following the rules you gave me.” Hopefully we’re a little bit more down to just the systems we have as the flows and sensors kind of get clogged due to several others. I think there is some good news there. Overall, I am going to say the water and sewer systems are operating. We’re still rebuilding a few pumps for Pine Island, but everything seems to be functioning well. Generators are all in service and working well as well. November was consumed with mostly with flushing. We got some feedback from the system saying, “Hey, you probably need to be running at a higher pressure than we want you to.” We did some flushing; we saw some results that the system dropped about ten pounds. I believe we are seeing good feedback from that, that the grinder station arms are not related to those kind of things at this point. I think for 2025 we need to continue the flushing campaigns. We’re working on getting a system in place that could do that cost effectively. As George mentioned, it’s a costly effort to do, but now that we know we’ll be doing this on a regular basis, we’re going to put a system together. We can operate and probably either monthly or quarterly go target some area to get it flushed. If there is no questions on anything else. Mr. Scharich: I have a question. I had a couple of owners complain about sediment in their water. In fact, the plumber even excused why his, what was it, they had a water heater problem, and they drained it, and they said there was way more sediment in here than what we normally see. Just some complaints from a couple of owners. Mr. Szozda: What I could probably say to that is one is that they miss it the way the waters come in. From day 1, it’s pumped into a big tank, we chlorinate it, and it’s pumped out through the system. So, there is going to be some inherent dissolve solvents or solvents that are kind of carrying through. We may need to do flushing campaigns. I think we got a call this morning about someone saying, “Hey, my water smells bad.” People go away for weeks or months from their house. If you do that, go flush your water because things will settle out. Mr. Flint: Yes. Everything from the street and then these are big houses. You could have a significant amount of water sitting in those lines. Mr. Scharich: Well, they said, “Ask about if there is any chance of improvement going forward.” Mr. Flint: In general, the water quality is very high right out of the ground here and we haven’t had any testing that’s indicated we’ve got any issues. Part of a community like this that is still under construction and sat for a long time, there may be some of that. Like Rob said, we can Docusign Envelope ID: 70057F71-F19C-4E9C-87A3-E10349590A83 December 12, 2024 Bella Collina CDD 12 look at potentially flushing the system we have in situations where there is a dead end line. We’ve had situations where you had one house, a long row of undeveloped lots and then one house. In those situations, we may have some of that. Mr. Szozda: Yes. If there are ever any situations, call us, call the 877 number or call the water number and tell us and then we’ll, like this morning, we’ll be flushing these lines to make it clear them up. Mr. Greene: Who does the after-hours? Mr. Flint: The phones after 6:00 p.m., I think go to RCM. We do have our main lift station over here by the tennis courts, I think we talked about this at a prior meeting, does not have a generator. It’s set up to have a generator. It’s actually set up for a portable generator, I guess. During one of the storms, we had power out on this side of the community for an extended period of time, which created some issues where we had to deal with that lift station pumping it out. We’ve gotten three quotes. It’s not cheap. That is one of the projects we’re working on is getting a permanent generator at that facility because we always kind of cross our fingers. That’s one area that we have some exposure, but the way it’s addressed is you get a pump truck in there and you pump it out as needed. If need be, we can get a temporary generator there as well, but ideally we would have a permanent generator located there that would automatically turn on in the event that there is a loss of power. We have that coming forward at some point. Mr. Greene: Any idea how much one of those cost? Mr. Flint: Was it $250? Mr. Szozda: Well, the bids were, I think, $80,000 to $100,000. I think, the low bid was missing a few components. I have to go through and evaluate all the bids and see which ones kind of work best. Mr. Flint: Yes. Jim Boyd provided $110 or $115 and then we went out and got bids directly. Mr. Szozda: Yes. The company that services our generators now provided a bid, Jim Boyd provided a bid, and Ring Power provided a bid. Mr. Flint: Yes. On the flushing, you’re doing a visit. Mr. Szozda: Yes. I am going to go to Southern Utility. My background is really nuclear materials development and operations like that, so I am going to go there and see what their common practices are and what they’re doing to be successful. Docusign Envelope ID: 70057F71-F19C-4E9C-87A3-E10349590A83 December 12, 2024 Bella Collina CDD 13 Mr. Flint: The design of the system is a little unusual, you know, the low pressure collection system with the individual grinder stations at each home. Typically, you have gravity systems, and you have lift stations, but not at every house. This is a little bit of a different animal and we’re going to another community that has the same design that is more mature and we’re working with RCM, we’re working with Jim Boyd, we’re working with Tom Felton. But this system because you have two inch lines in part of it, it goes all the way up to six, I guess, in part of it. And we’ve had a long period of no development going on or we may have one house at the end of a long two inch line. There is really no flushing affect or scouring affect because you don’t have the volume going through it. Mr. Scharich: And the reclaimed water, the original project was designed for reclaimed going back to irrigation throughout the project. Mr. Flint: Yes. That was the bond issue we just did. The reclaimed water that is generated from the homes that are in existence goes to the golf course. Then, surface water will be used to charge the reclaimed, the irrigation line. We did a rate study to develop an irrigation rate to reflect the fact that now we’re going to have the surface water system. That rate study will come back to the Board. Because that irrigation system won’t be operating until January of 2026, it’s premature to bring the rate study now and adopt revised rates, but between doing the budget process for FY 2026, we’ll be talking about how the rates will be adjusted. Likely what’s going to happen is the irrigation rates will go down, but the potable is going to go up because you’ve got revenue needs and those don’t go away even though it’s going to be cheaper to produce irrigation potentially through the surface water system than potable water and now you’ve got a reduction in potable water revenue that has to be made up with a rate increase. I don’t know that we’re going to see much savings to the residents, but we will bring that rate study back as part of the budget process. Mr. Owen: George, I have a pretty hard question. On the proposed generator, what will the KW be? Mr. Flint: It’s diesel, right. Mr. Owen: Diesel. Mr. Flint: Yes. Mr. Szozda: We have one propane and three diesels right now. We’ll look at the proposals and see what they offer. The propane system we had a few leaks. Mr. Owen: Because diesel doesn’t inherit a problem with longevity of the fuel. Docusign Envelope ID: 70057F71-F19C-4E9C-87A3-E10349590A83 December 12, 2024 Bella Collina CDD 14 Mr. Szozda: Yes. Mr. Owen: The third part is will they be installed in time for the hurricane season. Mr. Flint: For next year? Mr. Owen: Yes. Mr. Szozda: I think if we can get it approved here. Mr. Flint: Yes. It’s an 80 KW based on the demands. There is two pumps. Mr. Szozda: For the diesel concern, talking APS and double generators most of my life and fuel testing and things of that nature, there is a way they run it, so we are turning over some of the fuel. But for what it’s worth, we are going long periods of time without refueling. A couple of years in some cases, but now they say let’s top this thing off ever year to keep a little bit of fresh fuel in there. If we have to we can empty the fuel tank. Mr. Owen: Or stabilize it. Mr. Szozda: Or stabilize it. Yes. Mr. Flint: You also have to be able to get it after storm event too. I don’t know if that is a consideration with the propane suppliers versus diesel suppliers, but if we have a storm event, those are only going to run for a certain number of hours. Mr. Owen: That was my thought on questioning the size of the tank is. Mr. Szozda: Yes. I want to say a three days capacity and then that would give us that much time to get another load in here. That is one of our concerns about the lift station is that one, we’ve found out, is when you lose power in east not in the west, the lift station is fed from the west but powered by the east, so that was an issue in itself. Mr. Flint: Yes. Mr. Szozda: Secondly, quite a few houses have generators, so they’re going to just keep going like normal, so they are not going to stop feeding the lift stations as far as that goes. The way we’re staffed, it’s going to be better for our own comfort to have a generator in place versus we’ve got people that are here part time of the day trying to pull the generator up, push it, and get it in service. We need a better long term solution, so let’s get a generator there. Mr. Flint: Ok. Any other discussion or questions?
