FOURTH ORDER OF BUSINESS	Public	Hearing	for	the	Purpose	of
Adopting the Fiscal Year 2026 Budget; Consideration of Resolution 2025-03, Relating to Annual Appropriations and Adopting the Budget for Fiscal Year 2026
Mr. Eckert stated that the Board has two resolutions in the agenda package which are similar to what you have seen in prior years. Resolution 2025-03 actually adopts the budget that you are considering and then appropriates money to specific budget funds. The second resolution you will be considering is Resolution 2025-04 which imposes your operations and maintenance assessments and levies those, and it also certifies for collection those operating and maintenance assessments as well as the previously levied debt service assessments. Our office did prepare these resolutions and would recommend approval after a public hearing.
Ms. Giles asked for a motion to open the public hearing.

On MOTION by Chairperson Nelsen seconded by Vice Chair Horton with all in favor, Opening the Public Hearing, was approved.

Ms. Giles stated there are no members of the public present at this time. She asked for a motion to close the public hearing.

On MOTION by Chairperson Nelsen seconded by Ms. Ambrosio with all in favor, Closing the Public Hearing, was approved.

Ms. Giles stated this Board has been through many of these budget adoptions. At your June 9th meeting, the Board approved the FY26 budget. Assessments stay the same for multifamily and have a slight decrease for single family and commercial. Some of these lines went up and some went down but for the most part it is pretty similar to what you had in FY25.
Vice Chair Horton stated what was the slight decrease, what caused that?
Ms. Giles stated just different line items. The accountant puts together the budget. Jay and I review it and then we have a conference call with the accountant and just question why she put a number in there. She sees all the invoices historically for the past year and previous years. When we get together as staff we look at each one of the line items and make recommendations to the accountant. She will either agree or disagree. Some go up and some go down as we do that.
Mr. Soriano stated the methodology on the billing too for your single-family homes and then your multifamily homes, they are billed a little different. One thing we looked at was we didn’t want anybody to go up, they had to stay flat. The way we were working it the first time the multifamily went up a dollar or two while we were talking about it so we brought it back down. It is a small amount, but it is mostly because of the way we build the methodology and then trying to keep all of those lines so the overall budget is flat but it just changed how we bill each one.
Ms. Giles stated thanks Jay. This is the Board’s opportunity to discuss the budget. Jay, before they jump into discussion, are there any lines that you want to point out or anything that you want to introduce them too.

Mr. Soriano stated no. The last couple of months, we have gone through it and there wasn’t anything specific that I had concern with. I know we've talked about things over the last year or two, changing or increasing staffing to make sure we could pay our District employees a little more. We have to do that increase every year. We still have another year we have to do that. But I was able to take away from those areas where we see savings every year. So, there wasn't anything new and nothing that was a drastic change or anything that I needed. In the last couple meetings, there wasn't anything you guys requested other than we're still moving forward on increasing the capital purchases and projects. We are doing a lot more than we did in the past, but it's still following our capital plan. Outside of that, there wasn't anything special with this budget.
Ms. Giles stated if you are looking at the hard copies, on page 13 is a chart that has a comparison of FY26 to FY25. That is it from staff about the budget so it is open for Board discussion. If there is no discussion, we would just look for a motion to adopt Resolution 2025- 03.

On MOTION by Vice Chair Horton seconded by Chairperson Nelsen with all in favor, Resolution 2025-03, Relating to Annual Appropriations and Adopting the Budget for Fiscal Year 2026, was approved.

FIFTH ORDER OF BUSINESS	Public	Hearing	for	the	Purpose	of
Imposing Special Assessments for Fiscal Year 2026; Consideration of Resolution 2025-04, Imposing Special Assessments and Certifying an Assessment Roll for Fiscal Year 2026
Ms. Giles stated next is Resolution 2025-04 imposing special assessments. That is what Mike went over earlier. Just a shorter version of that, this is a resolution that allows the county to place the assessments on the tax roll and to be collected on the annual property tax bills. Unless there are any comments or questions, I would just look for a motion to adopt Resolution 2025- 04.

On MOTION by Mr. Lanier seconded by Chairperson Nelsen with all in favor, Resolution 2025-04, Imposing Special Assessments and Certifying an Assessment Roll for Fiscal Year 2026, was approved.

SIXTH ORDER OF BUSINESS	Staff Reports
District Counsel
Mr. Eckert stated in between the meetings, our office prepared two agreements for sign installation at the waterfall and the amenity center entrances that were approved at the July meeting. Other than that, it has been relatively quiet for us. I am happy to answer any questions.

District Engineer
There being nothing to report, the next item followed.

District Manager
Discussion of the Fiscal Year 2026 Goals and Objectives
Ms. Giles stated on page 189 are proposed FY26 goals and objectives. Just as a reminder, this became a requirement during the 2024 legislative session and it requires special Districts to establish goals, objectives, performance measures and standards. This must be established before October 1st of each year. At your October meeting, we will go over your FY25 goals and objectives and post that to the Districts website. We have kept these goals and objectives pretty basic. Florida Statutes doesn’t require anything specific so these are the same goals and objectives we had last year. It is up to the Board if there is something specific you want to change, add or remove but for now, I think staff would recommend just to keep it simple until something more comes out from the state.
Vice Chair Horton stated I looked over it. We meet or exceed all of them if you ask me. I don’t see a problem with this. They look good. I don’t know what we would add to it.
Mr. Thomas asked do other communities put future events, like say, library or our historical marker? Is that included in this, or is there no reason to put that in there?
Chairperson Nelsen stated I think if we put that in as an objective and something happened and you don't want to have a failed objective on things that aren't in our control, right?
Ms. Giles stated yes. I would limit it to things that we can control. I don't know what a failure will look like. We are only going into the second year of this being a requirement. Unless

there's anything the Board would like to see changed on this; I'm just looking for a motion to approve the FY26 goals and objectives.

On MOTION by Vice Chair Horton seconded by Chairperson Nelsen with all in favor, the Fiscal Year 2026 Goals & Objectives, were approved.

Consideration of Designating a Regular Meeting Schedule for Fiscal Year 2026
Ms. Giles stated on page 192 is the FY26 meeting schedule. I did look over these dates. I didn’t see any conflicts with any holidays at all.
Mr. Lanier asked is the 13th Columbus Day or National Indigenous Day? October?
Ms. Giles stated it is Columbus Day. Will that be a problem for the Board to meet on Columbus Day?
Mr. Lanier stated I know we haven’t in the past and I don’t think it’s much heartache, but I just wanted to make sure.
Ms. Giles stated I know this Board has met on some other holidays like Valentines Day, things like that. I didn’t see Columbus Day as a big deal, but we can certainly look at changing that if we need to.
Mr. Thomas stated I don’t think the school system gets out. Chairperson Nelsen stated no, they don’t.
Ms. Giles asked for a motion to approve the FY26 meeting schedule.

On MOTION by Mr. Lanier seconded by Vice Chair Horton with all in favor, the FY2026 Meeting Schedule, was approved.

Operations Manager - Memorandum
Ms. Giles stated the Operations Report starts on page 194.
Mr. Soriano stated we have just had a couple more community events. We had our last dive in movie on this side this last month since I saw you guys last. Now we'll be transitioning back to doing the movies on the green down there at the multi-use fields. We've also just had our back-to-school events and this one is always a little smaller. There are some of our winners here, our middle school. We were able to make sure our high school are there and our elementary. We were able to make sure we gave everything away. We did get rained out for the last hour, but the

one thing I didn't want was supplies left over like we had last year. I asked the DJ to stay undercover at both sides and they played games under there. The families hung out. We ended up cutting short about 20 minutes. But the back-to-school event is always a little bit smaller because we do have a lot of people that are still doing their last-minute vacations the week before. Today you really noticed it, the place was dead. Everybody's out on that school road all day long. Nobody is at the facility, so it was a little bit slower, but everybody still had fun. I believe this side was a little more packed down, a little busier than you guys are all the time. There was about 100 or so people over here. You guys only had about 50 or 60 participants over at your place. But still everybody enjoyed and like I said, we were able to give everything away. We do have a couple of events coming up. We go back to the movies in the park pretty much every month until we get to December and then we end at the holidays to take the coldest months off. We will have another poolside event. It is over here at your sister District. It's live music and it is a five-piece band, so a little more spread of music if anybody wants to come over here. We did two events for the kids and the families because we didn't want the kids out on the pool deck. We wanted this to be more adult oriented like the other one, a chance for the adults to enjoy themselves at the pool. We do have another paint program that's going to be up here in this room for the younger kids and then the older kids. We have a game truck that's going to be downstairs. The biggest thing is getting pre-registrations though some of these things or even the painting program can be kind of expensive to buy all the supplies for the kids. I need to make sure I have enough of those families signed up. Last time it worked out really well, so I'm hoping that's what we see this time also. We haven't released an update for the lap pool on this side yet. I'm hoping to have a timeline available for the residents this week. We are getting some of our equipment back and as soon as I get it in hand, I'll be able to estimate a week to put this in and get the pool clean and high schoolers back here type of thing. But I just don't want to give a timeline until I get those parts in hand. But knowing that the high school is still practicing at your facility. They started afternoons this week. They're there every day. They're there 2:30, 3 o' clock they start practicing and they're there until 5:30. They keep two lanes open for our residents to swim. We do have a few lap swimmers and then of course the other pools are open, the slide and the families to play. Even though it is a little bit busier, it is something we're able to squeeze the high school in. We did not bring Ridgeview back this year because of the fact that we had to squeeze everybody in. I don't think they wanted to be here either. They talked to me, but they kind of went their own way. I

will let them know when we get this pool back up if it saves them money. We do have a lot of families, especially now with the rezoning. Last year we had a lot of families that are Oakleaf families, I don't mind trying to get them in if we can share the space. But until we have this big pool and deck back, it's just too hard and couldn't do it at either facility. But we'll continue to try to get Oakleaf in. Once I have a timeline, hopefully just another couple of weeks here, we'll have everybody back over on the side.
Vice Chair Horton stated you mentioned adjustments for a year-round swim team.
Mr. Soriano stated last year was the first year they did this. They came to Middle Village and asked to use the heated pool for limited practice and they practiced. They started off three days a week. This was a small group. They were really looking forward to and I think trying to sell the Board that we have such a big summer program that there would be lots of kids. I knew that wasn't going to be the case because I've been swimming since I was little, I did a lot of swimming. It's hard to do a year-round team. We ended up with about 18 kids each month, which was enough to pay the coaches. So as long as they were self-sufficient, the Board on this side was pretty happy. It didn't bother the residents and they took the coldest months where we had an issue with heating the pools anyway for the residents for January and February, so we kind of shut down. They took those off because those kids didn't want to be out there anyway. So, they kind of fit in. They are planning to do that again. So, they'll take a little time off. They just ended a few weeks ago for the recreational team. Now, coach Powers is kind of focused on the high school team. But usually right about October, that's when those parents for the year- round program are asking to get back into practice.
Vice Chair Horton stated you are talking about the swim team of the residents here, not the high school.
Mr. Soriano stated right. It's basically an extension of that summer program and they do one or two meets, but it's more for practice and improving to get ready for the next summer. The families pay month to month. That is how we kind of set it up. They can come in, they can swim for just October and November if they want, or they have someone that will actually kind of go through the whole thing and be there ready for next summer and do four or five months of the off season. It will eventually build bigger. We do have a good group of swimmers here. The Oakleaf the team is much larger because of everything that's built up over the years. But I think it'll still be a few years before that year-round team is really truly self-sufficient. You see our numbers

last month I mentioned it kind of peaked really early because it was so hot here. I think everybody was really happy to get back to the pools. We saw everything kind of slowed back down. This is still probably the highest numbers. I've looked through past years that we've seen for a July recording, but not by much. We've had an 8,000 earmark before, so this wasn't too high. 250 different people throughout the days is about average for us when we're really busy. The rentals are staying pretty busy with parties. We will start slowing down now that everybody's back in school. It is not listed on here, but I did want to update you on soccer. I am working on their agreements next with Mike's office and it's no longer elite. I let them know they're called Sporting Jax. They changed their name and a bit of the company has changed around. This is also the team, the ownership, I guess group that owns the girl’s professional team that's in Jacksonville now, Sporting Jax. They do have different facets; they do different things. They still have the travel teams here with us and the recreational program. It is pretty much the same people there. I have one person that I'm working with, Kate Moles is still here. So, a lot of the same names and fixes. Chris Brenner's who works on the agreement with me and also sends our check. He did let me know he mailed out a $7,300 check for this last year and that they are behind in seasons. I did go over some of the things that are going to be in a new agreement. Even mentioning I worked out with Mike how we can do it. Things like potential fines or penalties for not paying in time and giving them a timeline after each season to pay us so that we're not waiting three seasons behind just to collect money. And then also the things that we've always asked for them to do, things like bathroom monitoring, picking up trash, that's going to be a little more important. In the same way, I'm trying to figure out wording for potential penalty if our janitorial service has to go out and we're spending our money to clean up after them constantly. They will end up reimbursing for that somehow. So, I'd rather them pick it up whether it's volunteer coaches or the paid part of the program because they are a bigger company. They do have a staff for Sporting Jax now. So that is what I'm working on next for them.
Vice Chair Horton stated that's Sporting Jax. Mr. Soriano stated Jax, yes.
Vice Chair Horton stated the reason I ask that is because in the minutes, whoever did the minutes, they put Jacks in there.
Mr. Soriano stated sorry. We can change that.
Vice Chair Horton stated I wasn’t sure which one it was supposed to be.

Mr. Soriano stated yeah, it's Jax. And they actually have; you will see it here in a second. But I'm going to get on them about putting signs out in our nice new little area. That one right there. I can't see what it says. It actually has Sporting Jax on there. I'm going to get them to pull all of those and I will put signs in. Other than on the weekends when they're trying to advertise and the kids and the families are up there running around; I'm fine with it. But they put it out after school and they kind of walk through and trample. This is our brand-new landscaping here. We did get a lot of plants. We will trim them so they stay inside the sidewalk. But to keep people from trying to come up here, I might even add some height over here someplace because we just put one on each corner. They are good size but it'll take a while for them to grow. We also had some extra plants. Not only do we have extra plants to put in, over on this right-hand side here is where our water fountain is going in this week we have to do concrete. We have extra plants that they are still holding for us that need to go in there. But we had extra plants that we were able to bring back the front walkway. So as you walk up to the building, you can kind of see them here. This tree right here and then on the other side, there's an entry on the other side of the sidewalk. Those that are on the left side up here, those we had originally taken the plants out of, we put them back in. It was the first picture, on the left and right of this sidewalk. We were able to load all of these up. Chalon's group is working on adjusting any irrigation for me to make sure everything is watered really well and these things live. I did talk to Pat and you have a one-year warranty as long as everything is watered correctly that they're willing to stand by. They've worked with VerdeGo before, so they're not too worried about them not taking care of the area. They did drop brand new mulch and fertilizer to last until November. So hopefully all of these plants will take off pretty well.
Mr. Lanier asked where is the water fountain going to be?
Mr. Soriano stated this is the front side as we come up from the parking lot. The water fountain is on the backside as you go around to the field.
Mr. Thomas asked is it going to be outside here? Is it going to be within the confines of the mulch and the plants?
Mr. Soriano stated yes, we will have a concrete walkway that's going to come up. You're not going to walk in the mud or the mulch or anything. We are forming a small, curved sidewalk and it sits on a square pad. We'll try to sit it just a little bit higher than the mulch because it's got a dog bowl on it. If you guys remember, there's going to be a little button so you can fill up the

water fountain for your doggies. We have to sit a little higher so that the water can drain off and doesn't get caught by the mulch. Our form sits above the mulch but right now it doesn't. Everything's kind of dug in, but we've set it so it's a little higher so everything can drain off so this thing doesn't sit in water all the time. It will eventually rust. It's a big chunk of steel, but we don't want it to. We see a lot of our other items are 20 years old and they're rusting and things like that. We want to try to make it last as long as possible. This is going around the back side of the building here where you walk up to the concession stand, so it will be on your left-hand side when you walk up to the concession stand.
Mr. Thomas stated nice, thank you.
Mr. Soriano stated then really the only other things I wanted to update you on where the playground is back open. I'll go over these pictures in a moment. This is the new equipment here. You see the rubberized coating. This is what everybody was complaining about before. I understand the concern for the way it looks. We did order replacements for all of these and it was almost 10 full months to get them to us. If you remember, I was looking at four to six months and that just didn't work out. Everything is back up and operational now. We did open it up. I am going to top off the mulch. These are all new bars on these. You see no rust at the bottom. Everything is bolted in. New rubberized coating everywhere and we replaced the slide. The old slide was getting spider cracks in the plastic. Years ago, this company here was one of the best companies we've worked with where they had lifetime warranty. We got to about 12 years, 13 years with one of the first big slides and they replaced it. You remember I told you guys; they dropped one off. They shipped it in, came on the back of the truck and didn't charge me for shipping or anything. It was completely free. They no longer honor it that way. A lifetime is 14 years for most of these slides and we're well beyond that. We are at 20 years for most of these units. Nothing is under warranty. However, we've made so many repairs and taken apart something. We've even started that over here in Middle Village. Now, they only have a couple units, so not as many. But they do have some that replace items on yours. What we did was we started doing inventory. That’s what these other fixtures were. I have all of the good parts. We started taking out the bad ones and getting rid of all the bad stuff. Anything that's broken or cracked, and then anything that I can powder coat I'll take to the powder coating factory and they'll look brand new when they're done. I have railings, the fireman slides, ladders and we have some good platforms. But this allows me to replace just about everything you guys have out

there now. There won't be a need other than just us wanting to replace with a whole brand-new unit. We do have the ability to replace just about everything with some of these recoated items and a lot cheaper; $2,000 compared to $30,000 or $40,000. That was the plan originally. But if we want to get one, I think we've done a good job of kind of controlling the cost as we've been rebuilding these. My next one that we're going to be working on is that Fall Creek one at the end. It has a couple platforms, the square platforms where they're rusting through. I'll be able to take some of these extra parts that I have and there's a couple squares right here that are in good shape to the left. I'll be taking those over there because they fit perfect from one of the last ones we took on at Middle Village fits your four-inch poles. That's the hard part is they have to fit the type of playground. But those that I just did out here works on what I'm going to do next for you guys and vice versa. You had some that worked with theirs. They have a Whitfield playground that actually matches the old one we just did out in Worthington so we have parts from that that will come over here. It is kind of working out where we're going to be able to get a lot of these playgrounds now taken care of without having to spend 30, $40,000 at a time. I will be bringing in mulch though because we just opened it back up. There are some big holes under the swings, things like that and the mulch does cost a good amount for that certified playground mulch. We will probably be looking at $3K to $4K to fill in that area, but that would be completely done. The only other thing on my report I did want to point out, last month on my report there was an item about slide breakers. We did have an issue, probably the hottest part of June or first week of July where the breaker for the slide kept tripping. It is inside your pool house. It's 20 years old. They do last longer than that as long as they are well taken care of. This is a dusty old building that's not environmentally controlled. There's no air conditioning in there. It does get hot inside that building too. That's where our break room is. The breaker did burn up to where it gets to the point where it's on and heats up for about a half an hour, 40 minutes and kick back off. The type of breaker that it is, they no longer make. I have found quite a few of them. I can find them online for these big three pole 80-amp breakers for those big slides, many of them are about $400 to $500 apiece. I know it's going to look weird, but I'm going to purchase probably $1,000 or
$2,000 worth of breakers at a time for that whole panel rather than getting the quote to replace the whole panel. The whole plan might be $5K to $10K getting retail. I will just buy all the breakers I can so we have them ready to go over the next few years for those filters and slide motors that are housed in that room. Unless there's any questions on some of those other items

on the maintenance report, that is it for me. We have the door for the garage coming in this week. I was hoping to have it done this last month but the playground took us a little longer. There was a week where I actually did work with our staff here quite a bit. It was just so hot, I had these guys kind of working inside the second half of the day. So that was another reason the playground took us a long time. I just didn't want anybody passing out from heat exhaustion. You remember a couple weeks ago it was bad. But we do have the door ready to go so that we can use the golf carts. Hopefully that'll go on this next week. We also received our asphalt melter that came in, so we're going to work on some of those cracks on tennis courts. That will probably be the first group of things on the engineer report.

SEVENTH ORDER OF BUSINESS	Audience Comments (Limited to three
minutes) / Supervisor Requests
Ms. Giles stated the next item on the agenda is audience comments and Supervisors requests. There are still no members of the public present so we will move on to Supervisor's comments.
Vice Chair Horton stated I have a thought. The parking lot for the library is going to cost some money. My thinking here is that all three of the CDDs out here benefit from this. I wonder if it is possible that the other two CDDs could chip in a little bit to get this thing paid.
Mr. Soriano stated I do think Middle Village would be more likely to do that. There's been lots of things you guys and they have done back and forth over the years. The big ballpark over there, the county ballpark, things like that. So, I don't see a problem there. South Village might be a little tougher, but it's worth it to ask. It does benefit even some of our HOA neighborhoods we can talk to. You have another one, you actually have Armstrong CDD right down here that they will be people that would use that library. I think Marilee and I can have that conversation with a lot of those leaders of each neighborhood and see. It's worth it to ask and the worst thing they can do is say no.
Vice Chair Horton stated well, it's not going to be called the Double Branch. It's going to be called Oakleaf Library.
Mr. Soriano stated it is a Clay County resource so I think it would be helpful.
Vice Chair Horton stated I am just concerned we're going to do it right and get it really looking nice, the new building that they're putting in. It is probably $5M to $6M worth of building, then put in a crappy parking lot there.

Mr. Soriano stated that may be something that I can work with the engineering department, with the county to try to figure out if we can do it as they're finishing up their timeline. Your best bet is we are probably going to have to do millings and almost full service on that. I don't think we're going to do crack filling and patching. You can get it nice and black and it will look good, but within two or three years we're probably going to have to lay a whole new surface, basically the same process they did on the road this past couple months.
Vice Chair Horton stated maybe engineering can give us some kind of a rough estimate of what that costs.
Mr. Soriano stated depending on what they have going on, they always have work projects. They might be able to give us some help. Somebody that’s working nearby that for one of their projects that might actually be a lower cost. I can talk to them because that would be something we want to try to work into that timeline.
Vice Chair Horton stated that if they chip in for the parking lot, that’s a one-time good deal then we’re going to maintain it after that. It’s not like we’re not doing anything.
Ms. Ambrosio stated the county commissioner lives in South Village.
Vice Chair Horton stated I guess that's all I have. Nothing with security, I guess. Mr. Soriano stated no.
Vice Chair Horton stated no incidents, nothing?
Mr. Soriano stated no, it has actually been quiet these last couple of weeks. The schedule will change, so we'll start to see a different time where we have problematic people and issues, probably more around the practice time. That's the times I'm concerned with when the place is really packed. We are going to move in the direction. I've talked about it before, but never really implemented it where soccer and I9 are going to give you a list of their coaches and what dates they actually practice. Now, the idea is not to stick them to this. I know the coaches are always worried about it. They come out whenever. Then you get some coaches that practice when they're not supposed to, extra practice. But as long as I know the parents or the coaches involved and we know they're part of that program, it's easier for security and other staff to say, hey, who is this group out here? Because we still have a lot of groups of people that come out that don't live here and they are hanging out, doing things they really shouldn't be, or we actually have groups of sporting associations that come out and use the place and they're not supposed to be out there either. So, being able to say who are you with? Who's coaching tonight? And they just

give us a name. We have a list of names okay; you guys are good. If it's not a coach that's with Sporting Jax or I9 then they'll start asking more questions, to try to figure out whether they actually belong out there or not. I know every year when we do that and we get a little strict, we get complaints and comments on Facebook about checking cars and things like that. That has been part of our rules for 20 years now. That's what we want to do. After incidents that we had last year, I think it's one of those things we need to continue to do that every season and try to get people to understand it is not completely a public park.
Vice Chair Horton asked if they ever heard anything from the Sheriff’s Department. Mr. Soriano stated no.
Mr. Lanier stated Chalon, thank you for all that your team is doing. I appreciate it. I think the field house is looking great, so definitely appreciate that one. I think that would just take us back a little bit to what it was 15 years ago. Thank you for that and Jay as well. That is all I have.
Vice Chair Horton stated I have got one more question now that he mentioned Chalon. I see a lot of dead grass around the loop road there. I don't know if it's the irrigation or fertilization or what.
Ms. Suchsland stated we had a clock down at the park where you live that got struck by lightning and it had to be replaced.
Vice Chair Horton stated there is just a lot of bare spots. I don't know if anybody's taking a look at that.
Ms. Suchsland stated some of the bare spots are just differential, nothing irrigation wise. It is just from dog pee or whatever there is a big walking path or shady areas or just not enough sun.
Vice Chair Horton stated there are nice areas and then suddenly you get a dead area. It seems like it should improve with all the rain we have gotten here lately. How often do you fertilize?
Ms. Suchsland stated every three months.
