To the editor:
Since I have had issues getting responses from the city of Cape Coral through its online record request program, I chose to go before the Council on April 2, provide each council member with a copy of my list of questions then proceeded to read each one so there would be no doubt that the city was unaware of the questions posed. They are in regard to the Developer of Jaycee Park.
1. What individual(s) in the City of Cape Coral are responsible to assure developer compliance with all requirements set forth in Resolution-209-24 "Comprehensive Development Agreement for the delivery of Jaycee Park Improvements"?
2. Were there any undocumented meetings with city employees with either Fortress Secured LLC or The Reef (more specifically involving The Reef) indicating that is was OK that they were unable to make their $1.4 million payment due in beginning of December would not be an issue as they were having difficulty procuring a loan? BE HONEST. They were approximately four months late and the city attorney did nothing until last week. WHY?
3. Has the Notice to Proceed been issued to Fortress Secured LLC and what date was it issued?
4. In Exhibit C, there is in line item #7, a $100,000.00 allowance for "RV Docking Stations." Where on the approved plans are there RV Docking stations?
5. Copies of the Fortress Secured LLC Performance Bond AND Payment Bond per Section 703 Performance and Payment Bonds .
6. Fortress Secured LLC all logs of daily activities, ESPECIALLY paragraphs 705(a) through 705(c).
7. Any and all notices from Fortress Secured LLC submitted to the city of any and all Change Orders requested by Fortress Secured LLC and evidence of, dates of any meeting(s) and details of discussions and resolution(s) per Section 1502. Administration of Proposed Agreement Changes, including but not limited to Section 1502 (a) through Section 1502(c) of Resolution 209-24.
8. Total amount of funds distributed to Fortress Secured LLC to date and detailed copies of invoices Fortress Secured LLC has submitted including the following: #111824 dated 12/02/2024; #1-25500583 dated 01/09/2025; and #2-25500583 dated 02/13/2025. Please Send responses as indicated below. Respectfully Submitted 04/02/2025.
I am still waiting for a complete response as some questions were not answered or weren't answered completely.
When I receive any responses to these questions, I'll submit them to Letters to the Editor in this publication when, if and as I receive them. Let's see how well they do in getting me these answers shall we?
