There being no comments or changes, a motion was made by Mr. Mattison, seconded by Ms. Delgado, and passed unanimously approving the minutes of the January 27, 2026, Regular Board Meeting, as presented.

NOTE: Ms. Nguyen explained that today’s meeting was geared towards providing information to the Board.

OLD BUSINESS
Update Regarding Flow of Traffic on Egret Lakes Circle (Caltran Engineering)
Page 1 of 6

Ms. Nguyen stated that as requested by the Board during the last meeting, she prepared an itemized list of the various modification options included in the Road Modification Master Plan. Furthermore, she was unable to associate estimated costs with each modification option, and as such, she forwarded the list to Juan Calderon of Caltran Engineering. The list has been emailed to the Board, and once the estimated costs have been received, she will email those to the Board as well.

Ms. Nguyen explained that she was still awaiting the receipt of a schedule of available dates and times from the Venetian Isles Master Homeowners Association (the “HOA”) in order to hold a joint meeting of the District and the HOA. She further explained that the purpose of the joint meeting was to receive comments and input from the HOA Board of Directors on the modifications being contemplated. Upon receipt of the proposed dates, Ms. Nguyen will provide them to the District Board to establish a quorum. A Special Board Meeting will be scheduled for the date and time selected.

A motion was made by Mr. Mattison, seconded by Mr. Marquez and unanimously passed approving the scheduling of a Special Board Meeting for the purpose of discussing road modifications with the Venetian Isles Master Homeowners Association, to be held on a date and time to be determined, at the Venetian Isles Community Clubhouse Meeting Room located at 15355 Egret Lake Circle, Miami, Florida 33185; and further authorizing the publication/notice of the Special Board Meeting, as required by law.

More discussion on this item will take place at a future meeting.
Update Regarding Stormwater System Line Maintenance – CCTV Reports (Bellagio Phase III & Palermo Phase I)
Ms. Nguyen advised that the annual stormwater system inspection and associated maintenance had been completed. She further advised that the stormwater system line cleaning for Palermo (Palermo Phase II) had also been completed. Upon receipt of the CCTV inspection report, she will distribute it to the Board. Ms. Nguyen noted that due to the availability of funds in the District Drainage Structure Maintenance/Cleaning budget line, she authorized the contractor to proceed with the stormwater system line cleaning in Sienna, which has since been completed. The Sienna CCTV report will likewise be distributed to the Board once it has been received.

Ms. Nguyen reminded the Board of the stormwater system line cleaning schedule approved by the Board during the November 18, 2025, meeting, as follows:
Bellagio - completed
Palermo - completed
Sienna - completed
Murano
Verona
Toscana
Update Regarding Arborist Report (Sienna Trees & Main Area Trees)

Ms. Nguyen presented three (3) proposals and explained that the arborist recommended the removal and replacement of 48 trees in the main area of the District and 15 trees within the Sienna subdivision,

as well as the installation of several tree root barriers. Ms. Nguyen further noted that during the January 27th meeting the Board requested that a comprehensive survey be completed, which could also be utilized for future roadway resurfacing and/or any road modifications the Board may approve.

Ms. Nguyen reviewed the following proposals with the Board:

BrightView Landscape Services: $91,609.10 (only includes a tree survey, totaling $3,000)
Super Landscape & Maintenance: $119,590 (includes both a tree and land survey totaling
$23,540)
Colliers Engineering & Design: $21,400 (proposal for private tree and land survey services)
Ms. Nguyen explained that it would be more cost effective for the Board to obtain the tree and land survey from a private firm, such as Colliers Engineering & Design, and provide the completed survey to the selected tree mitigation contractor for permitting, architectural, tree removal, and replacement services. She further explained that the HOA may be required to provide authorization for the tree mitigation permit due to its ownership of the land where some of the trees are located.

This item will be further discussed at a future meeting when all Board Supervisors are present.

Update Regarding Venetian Isles Master Association ACC Report
Ms. Nguyen reminded the Board that during the January 27th meeting, the Board agreed, in concept, to allow the HOA to install pavers and benches on the District owned Tract “A” within Sienna. As a condition of such approval, the District Board requested that the HOA provide renderings and specifications of the proposed materials, including images of the benches and the type of pavers to be utilized. The District Board also requested information regarding the proposed dimensions and exact location of the paved area.
Ms. Nguyen stated that she had requested this information from the HOA and was currently awaiting receipt of the requested materials.
More information on this item will be provided at a future meeting.
Discussion Regarding Illegal Parking/Stopping on District Roads
Ms. Nguyen provided an update regarding her prior request to enter into an enforcement agreement with the Miami-Dade Police Department, Hammocks District Station (the “Police Department”). Ms. Nguyen stated that she had not received a response from the Police Department. Ms. Nguyen further explained that, upon recommendation of Ms. Smoker, she contacted the Police Department’s legal department for guidance. Following their review of the request, they advised that approval must first be obtained from the office of Commissioner Roberto Gonzalez. Once such approval is obtained, the Police Department’s legal department will consider entering into an enforcement agreement with the District. Ms. Nguyen stated that she contacted Commission Gonzalez’s office, and her request is currently being reviewed. Ms. Nguyen will continue to communicate with them and will provide additional information on this item at a future meeting.

Update Regarding Department of Transportation and Public Works Letter of Consent

Ms. Nguyen explained that following the January 27th meeting, she requested that Miami-Dade County Department of Transportation and Public Works (“DTPW”) provide the District with the full project plans for SW 152nd Avenue, as well as renderings or images of the specific ADA compliant ramps DTPW intends to add near the Sienna subdivision entrance, as requested by the Board. She further explained that following her continued requests, DTPW has responded that it has been in extensive coordination with the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) and the County Attorney’s Office regarding this matter. DTPW has now determined that a Letter of Consent is no longer required by the District and that a formal License Agreement is now the anticipated legal instrument required.

Ms. Nguyen further stated that DTPW has advised that it will be conducting internal meetings to determine the appropriate next steps. Ms. Nguyen stated that DTPW will provide her with the appropriate legal instrument, along with the project plans and supporting documentation previously requested once DTPW has determined the necessary legal instrument required from the District.

More information on this item will be provided at a future meeting.

NEW BUSINESS
Alligator Sighting in the Bellagio Subdivision Lake

Ms. Nguyen stated that on Saturday, March 14th, she was informed that on Friday, March 13th at approximately 11:00 p.m., an alligator was spotted in the pool area of a home in the Bellagio subdivision. Upon receipt of this information, Ms. Nguyen contacted the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) Nuisance Alligator Hotline to report the sighting and attain an alligator removal permit. Furthermore, Ms. Nguyen prepared a notice for the residents of the community and requested the assistance of the HOA to send a mass communication of the notice on behalf of the District. Ms. Nguyen acknowledged prompt assistance from the HOA in communicating this important information to the residents. She further explained that the FWC assigned alligator trapper performed an inspection of the community and the lakes to familiarize himself with the surroundings and determine the best practice to trap an alligator should there be another sighting. Board members were encouraged to contact the District Manager immediately if there is another alligator sighting in the community.
Consider Resolution No. 2026-01 – Adopting a Fiscal Year 2026/2027 Proposed Budget
Ms. Nguyen presented Resolution No. 2026-01, entitled:
RESOLUTION NO. 2026-01
A RESOLUTION OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF THE VENETIAN ISLES COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT APPROVING A PROPOSED BUDGET AND NON-AD VALOREM SPECIAL ASSESSMENTS FOR FISCAL YEAR 2026/2027; AND PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE.

Ms. Nguyen explained that the proposed 2026/2027 fiscal year budget would be balanced by designating a carryover of approximately $2,700 from the projected fund balance as of September 30, 2026. Additionally, Ms. Nguyen stated that the District currently has a fund balance of approximately
$250,000, in addition to approximately $214,000 held within the Infrastructure Reserve Fund. Ms.

Nguyen advised that since the overall proposed assessments were not increasing in the fiscal year 2026/2027, letters to the residents would not be required. Furthermore, Ms. Nguyen stated as part of Resolution No. 2026-01, the Board must set a date for the public hearing to adopt the fiscal year 2026/2027 final budget and assessment roll. A discussion ensued after which:

A motion was made by Mr. Mattison, seconded by Ms. Delgado and unanimously passed to approve and adopt Resolution No. 2026-01, as presented, setting the public hearing to adopt the fiscal year 2026/2027 final budget and assessments for May 26, 2026, at 7:00 p.m. in the Venetian Isles Community Clubhouse Meeting Room located at 15355 Egret Lake Circle, Miami, Florida 33185; and further authorizes publication/notice of the budget public hearing, as required by law.

Consider Approval of Attorneys Fee Adjustment – Billing Cochran, P.A.

Ms. Smoker explained that District Counsel’s firm, Billing Cochran, P.A., has had the current fee structure in place since 2023. Ms. Smoker further explained that although the firm was mindful of the necessity to keep increases in the District’s expenses, including the cost of legal services, to a minimum, it has become necessary for the firm to adjust their hourly rates, effective October 1, 2026.

Ms. Nguyen confirmed that the District’s budget includes sufficient funds for the legal budget line, and that the increase in billing rates will not affect the District’s budget.

A motion was made Ms. Delgado, seconded by Mr. Mattison and unanimously passed accepting the updated billing rates proposed by Billing Cochran, P.A.

Background
CALTRAN Engineering Group, Inc. (CALTRAN) was retained by Venetian Isles Community Development District (CDD) to perform the evaluation of improvements along the Egret Lakes Circle located within the residential community of Venetian Isles.
Venetian Isles Community is located at 15355 Egret Lakes Circle, Miami, FL 33185. This residential community is bordered on the north by SW 26th Street, on the east by SW 152nd Street, on the west by SW 157th Avenue, and on the south by the residential communities of Caribe Lakes and Bismark Homes at Venezia.
The Venetian Isles community CDD has received concerns from residents regarding traffic and safety, as well as the geometric layout at Egret Lakes Circle. There is also a need to improve the overall streetscape experience, particularly for vulnerable roadway users within the community.
Through the enhancement of the existing roadway infrastructure, Venetian Isles aims to elevate the well-being, social interconnectedness, and overall safety of the entire community.
This study’s main goal is to evaluate the Egret Lakes Circle in order to provide feasible and cost-effective alternatives while enhancing the safety for both motorized and non-motorized users of the internal community streets and maintaining acceptable level of service at the Egret Lakes Circle and adjacent roadways.
Figure 1 shows the overall study location map of this community and the Egret Lakes traffic circle key intersections along with the type of data collection efforts.

Existing Traffic Operations
An evaluation of existing traffic operations at all intersections along the Egret Lakes Circle was conducted. This traffic analysis utilizes Synchro 11, which applies methodologies outlined in the Highway Capacity Manual, 6th Edition.
Existing Condition Intersection Level of Service
Level of Service (LOS) Analysis for signalized/un-signalized intersections is based on the amount of control delay which is a measurement in seconds per vehicle that acts as an indicator of lost time, fuel consumption, frustration and driver’s discomfort at the signalized intersections. The level of services for unsignalized intersections is a scale from “A” to “F” in accordance with control delay thresholds that range from less than 10 seconds (level of service “A”) to greater than 50 seconds (Level of service “F”) of delay per vehicle for unsignalized intersections.
The goal of this traffic evaluation is to provide an understanding of the current vehicular delay that motorists experience at all intersections along the Egret Lakes Circle and identify any potential operational deficiencies. This evaluation helps to identify opportunities for roadway improvements which could enhance the safety for both motorized and non-motorized users within the studied residential community of Venetian Isles.
Table 3 show the existing LOS and delay for the identified study intersections and driveways; details of the LOS results and Operational analysis are documented in Appendix B.
The LOS analysis indicates that all studied intersections currently operate at an acceptable Level of Service “LOS A” in each approach during the highest AM and PM peak traffic demands.

Existing Condition Segment Capacity Analysis
In addition, a roadway capacity analysis was conducted to establish the current roadway segment Level of Service along Egret Lakes Circle. The capacity analysis adhered to FDOT standards for Concurrency Analysis in accordance with the Florida Department of Transportation 2020 Quality/Level of Service Generalized Service Volume Table 7 (Peak Hour Directional Volumes). The analysis was performed for the AM and the PM peak periods, for existing conditions.
The analysis shows that the studied segment is able to sustain traffic demands while operating at an acceptable level of service (LOS C) under current conditions.
Table 4 summarizes the results of the segment level of service analysis. For FDOT tables and related to calculations, please refer to Appendix C.

This traffic operations analysis concludes that a potential reconfiguration of the roadway, including a reduction in the number of lanes along Egret Lakes Circle, could be considered feasible to improve safety, calming traffic, improving mobility and access for all road users, and ultimately elevating the overall quality of life.

Proposed Alternatives
In order to enhance the streetscape environment and ensure the safety of both motorists and non-motorists, alternatives for reconfiguring the roadway were considered. The most relevant alternative assessed is potentially modify the Egret Lakes Circle by performing a road diet from two lanes to a single lane. This improvement was considered based on an analysis of traffic data and the results of traffic operations within the specific roadway under study.

Other, proposed alternatives encompass road channelization for specific approaches to Egret Lakes Circle, implementation of raised crosswalks, and the potential implementation of a dedicated raised shared-used path adjacent to the road (sidepath) along Egret Lakes Circle as part of the road diet.

The primary objective behind integrating these concepts is to incorporate newer design traffic calming techniques that prioritize the safety of all users, including pedestrians and cyclists of varying ages and abilities. The community of Venetian Isles anticipates that the implementation of the proposed alternatives will lead to an improvement in the overall well-being, social interconnectedness, and safety of the entire community.

Road Diet
The implementation of a road diet is a traffic calming technique that entails reducing the number of travel lanes of the Egret Lakes Traffic Circle from two lanes to a single lane. Upon examination of traffic data gathered at all intersections along Egret Lakes Circle and an assessment of the current level of service and vehicular delay in the area under study, it has been ascertained that implementing a road diet on Egret Lakes Circle is a viable option since the effect in vehicular delay is nominal (less than 1 second at intersections) and roadway capacity will not be negatively impacted, while maintaining an acceptable Level of Service as noted in Section 6.0 of this report.
The new roadway reconfiguration is expected to slow down vehicle speeds, control driving behaviors, enhance safety, and improve the overall experience for pedestrians, cyclists, and motorists. Drivers are more likely to adhere to speed limits and drive more cautiously in a road diet environment. In addition, the benefits of the proposed improvements include enhancement of the street environment resulting in a more pleasant experience to walk and bike promoting a more livable, safe, and vibrant community.
Raised Sidepath
Utilizing the opportunity created by the proposed road diet, a raised sidepath is recommended to replace the removed outer lane along Egret Lakes Circle.
Raised bicycle facilities are elevated at a different height from motor vehicle traffic level. This separation is commonly accomplished by raising the facility slightly above the adjacent roadway level. Usually, a buffer zone is situated between the bike lanes and the lanes for motor vehicles. Tubular markers will be provided at all intersections along Egret Lakes Circle to provide adequate separation between the sidepath and the travel lanes.
This facility offers a protected space for cyclists, reducing conflicts and potential accidents with motor vehicles. The buffer zone and the elevation difference between the bike lane and motor vehicle lanes restrict motorists’ access to the sidepath, ensuring a clear and

safe route for cyclists. Overall, raised bike lanes offer various advantages that enhance safety, comfort, and usability for cyclists and other vulnerable road users.
Channelized Directional Islands
In order to prevent prohibited and dangerous maneuvers at the studied Egret Lakes Circle, channelized directional islands are recommended at the main intersections along Egret Lakes Circle, which provide connection to public roads. This channelization is achieved through the implementation of raised traffic island that separate vehicles moving in opposite directions or restrict vehicles from performing prohibited and dangerous movements at intersections.
A previous traffic study conducted by CALTRAN, identified some vehicles performing prohibited movements from SW 30th Street Going to SW 30th Terrace and SW 28th Terrace Going to SW 30th Street. In order to restrict and prevent prohibited movements it is recommended to implement channelized directional islands at all the approaches to Egret Lakes Circle.
Figure 7 illustrate prohibited and dangerous maneuvers documented at the studied Egret Lakes Circle.

Figure 7. Prohibited and Dangerous Maneuvers at Egret Lakes Circle

Speed Humps
Currently, speed humps have been implemented within the Venetian Isles community to address concerns related to speeding and to enhance overall safety. Speed hump’s locations include the following:
Six (6) speed humps are present along Egret Lakes Circle
Two (2) speed humps are present along SW 30th Street
Three (3) speed humps are present along SW 153rd Ct
Six (6) speed humps are located along SW 29th Street

It is important to note that the existing speed humps are not in compliance with Miami-Dade County Standards in reference to road profile and signage; Thus, it is recommended to replace the existing speed humps with speed humps that meet the Miami-Dade County design standards. Detailed information regarding the Miami-Dade County policy on speed humps and the specifications for speed hump design can be found in Appendix D.
This measure is intended to enhance pedestrian safety, particularly for vulnerable users utilizing the existing crosswalk situated north of Egret Lakes Circle.
Raised Crosswalk
A raised crosswalk is a traffic calming feature that includes a roadway pedestrian crossing elevated to the same level as the sidewalk. This feature is strategically design to optimize safety and visibility for pedestrians.
Raised crosswalks provide many benefits such as increase drivers’ awareness of the presence of pedestrian crossings, vehicular speed reduction, and enhances access for people with disabilities by providing a level crossing.
Currently, the Egret Lakes Circle lacks designated pedestrian crosswalks for traversing from the outer sidewalk to the inner sidewalk along the circle. It is recommended to replace some of existing speed humps such as those situated west of SW 153rd Path, west of SW 30th Terrace, and east of SW 153rd Avenue with elevated crosswalks designed to heighten pedestrian safety within the community.

In addition, it is recommended to remove the existing speed humps along SW 153rd Court and install a raised crosswalk along SW 153rd Court north of Egret Lakes Circle. Furthermore, it is recommended to eliminate the four existing speed humps situated a short distance from the current crosswalk along SW 29th Street west of Egret Lakes Circle and install a raised crosswalk at the location of the existing level crosswalk.
The proposed elevated crosswalks will facilitate a secure pathway for residents to access the Venetian Isles Club House, which is located at the center of Egret Lakes Circle.

Reducing the current configuration from two lanes to one will not adversely impact flow of traffic along Egret Lakes Circle. The projected increase in vehicle-delay will result in a nominal effect, resulting in an increase of less than 1-second in vehicle delay across all intersections analyzed within the segment under consideration.
Proposed Conditions Segment Capacity Analysis
In addition, a roadway capacity analysis shows that the studied segment of Egret Lakes Circle will be able to sustain future traffic demands while operating at an acceptable level of service (LOS C) after the implementation of the road diet.
The capacity analysis adhered to FDOT standards for Concurrency Analysis in accordance with the Florida Department of Transportation 2020 Quality/Level of Service Generalized Service Volume Table 7 (Peak Hour Directional Volumes). The analysis was performed for the AM and the PM peak periods, for proposed conditions. Table 7 summarizes the results of the below calculations. For FDOT tables and related to calculations, please refer to Appendix C.

Recommended Improvements
This traffic study documents the results of a traffic evaluation at the residential community of Venetian Isles in order to determine the feasibility to implement roadway streetscape improvements along Egret Lakes Circle. The effort included field observations, traffic volume data, Turning Movement Counts (TMCs), and traffic operational and capacity analysis, from which the following conclusions were determined:

The LOS analysis indicates that all studied intersections currently operate at an acceptable level of service “A” in each approach during the highest AM and PM

peak traffic demands. Consequently, a potential road diet along Egret Lakes Circle could be considered feasible for enhancing safety, calming traffic, and improving mobility and access for all road users.
It is recommended that the outer lane of Egret Lakes Circle be eliminated.
A raised sidepath is recommended to be accommodated to replace the outer lane along Egret Lakes Circle. This sidepath will offer a protected space for cyclists, reducing conflicts and potential accidents with motor vehicles.
In order to prevent illegal and dangerous maneuvers at the intersection of the Egret Lakes Circle, channelized directional islands are recommended.
It is recommended to replace the existing speed humps with speed humps that are in compliance with the Miami-Dade County design standards.
It is recommended to replace the existing speed humps situated west of SW 153rd Path, west of SW 30th Terrace, and east of SW 153rd Avenue with elevated crosswalks designed to heighten pedestrian safety within the community.

Tree Mitigation Planting – Basis of Pricing, Species Selection & Budgetary Installation Options
Final mitigation quantities and associated replacement planting costs may vary based on Miami-Dade County’s final determination of the total canopy square footage required to be mitigated. To assist with planning and budgeting, several approved replacement tree species are included below, each of which qualifies as a Medium Shade Tree (Category 2) under applicable County standards and provides 300 square feet of canopy mitigation credit per tree.

These species have been intentionally selected not only for their mitigation value, but also because they are generally considered to have less aggressive root systems, making them a more suitable long-term choice for this property and helping reduce the likelihood of similar root-related issues in the future. While Miami-Dade County also recognizes certain Large Shade

4

Wooden Trees (Category 1) as approved mitigation options, many species within that classification may develop more invasive root systems over time.
In our professional opinion, the Medium Shade Tree (Category 2) options presented below typically offer the best overall balance of cost efficiency, aesthetic appeal, and long-term site preservation. Final mitigation quantities and costs will remain subject to the County’s required canopy replacement calculations, approved mitigation plan, and the client’s final species selection from the applicable approved list.

Recommended Species
(Selected based on resilience, canopy development, and overall aesthetic value)

Bulnesia arborea (Verawood) – 25 gal, 8' height, 1.5" caliper
Conocarpus erectus var. sericeus (Silver Buttonwood) – 25 gal, 8' height, 1.5" caliper
Coccoloba diversifolia (Pigeon Plum) – 25 gal, 8' height, 1.5" caliper
Elaeocarpus decipiens (Japanese Blueberry) – 25 gal, 8' height, 1.5" caliper
Filicium decipiens (Japanese Fern Tree) – 25 gal, 7' height, 1" caliper

More Colorful Options
(Less preferred due to reduced durability and greater susceptibility to disease and insect pressure)
Tabebuia caraiba (Yellow Tabebuia) – 25 gal, 8' height, 1.5" caliper
Tabebuia impetiginosa (Purple Tabebuia) – 25 gal, 8' height, 1.5" caliper
Tabebuia heterophylla (Pink Tabebuia) – 25 gal, 8' height, 1.5" caliper
Cordia sebestena (Orange Geiger) – 25 gal, 8' height, 1" caliper

Mitigation Installation – Budgetary Pricing Options
For estimating purposes, the following mitigation installation pricing is based on an estimated quantity of 63 replacement trees. Final mitigation quantities may be more or less than 63 trees, as the final required planting count will be based on the total canopy square footage lost, Miami-Dade County’s final mitigation requirements, the approved mitigation plan, and the final species selected. Accordingly, mitigation planting should not be assumed to be a direct one-for-one replacement of removed trees.
Option 1 – Preferred Species (Recommended)
Based on the recommended species listed herein and budgeted at $575.00 per tree, delivered, installed, and braced as needed.
Estimated Quantity: 63 trees
Unit Price: $575.00 each
Estimated Total: $36,225.00

5

Option 2 – Alternate Lower-Cost Species
As an alternate pricing scenario, lower-cost approved mitigation species may be selected at an estimated budget of approximately $440.00 per tree, subject to availability. Species selections within this range may be more limited and may vary based on current nursery availability.
Estimated Quantity: 63 trees
Estimated Unit Price: $440.00 each
Estimated Total: $27,720.00

Option 3 – Lower Grade Material (Not Recommended / Not Included)
Lower-grade or non-Grade A nursery material may exist in the marketplace; however, Super Landscape & Maintenance does not recommend the use of such material for mitigation installations and has not included pricing for these options. Our standard recommendation is to utilize Grade A nursery stock to support better aesthetics, stronger establishment, and improved inspection acceptance.

Final total mitigation planting cost cannot be determined until Miami-Dade County confirms the total required canopy square footage to be mitigated and the community selects its preferred replacement tree species. In addition to the options listed above, there are more than 65 approved wooden shade tree options and approximately 15 approved palm options available should alternate selections be preferred.

Permitting Coordination & Fee Exclusions
Super Landscape & Maintenance will manage the permitting process for this project as part of our integrated service approach, including in-house coordination of all required documentation, permit application preparation and submission, and communication with Miami-Dade County and any other applicable reviewing departments or agencies necessary to secure approvals.
In addition to permit administration, our team will coordinate the related project services under one unified structure, providing the client with a single point of communication and accountability throughout both the permitting and implementation phases. This proposal includes the professional administrative, coordination, and project management services necessary to guide the project through review, approval, and execution while minimizing communication gaps and creating a more streamlined experience for ownership and management.

However, any fees imposed by Miami-Dade County or other governing authorities—including, but not limited to, permit fees, application fees, tree removal fees, mitigation fees, plan review fees, or other agency-assessed charges—are not included in the pricing herein and shall remain the responsibility of the client, as such amounts are determined directly by the applicable jurisdiction upon formal review.
