9. Overview • The 2011 vine project was budgeted for $30,000. the projects listed above total $10,725. These projects would greatly enhance the landscape at Wild Oaks and other important areas in the community. • I recommend we change the line item budgeted amount for the vine removal and use some of the funds to complete these projects. • We will still have funds for vine removal and Austin has been removing a lot of the vine as part of their contractual agreement in areas that we should be charged for at no additional charge.
