DESCRIPTION/BACKGROUND:
The Hills of Ocala 2025-26 Fiscal Year Budget included $60,000 for a roof extension over the Clubhouse patio. Due to the increased estimated cost of a roof extension, the Hills of Ocala Advisory Board elected to put a hold on that project and to request tennis court and playground updates as follows:
Tennis courts: Convert one (1) tennis court to two (2) pickle ball courts. Re-line the other tennis court to include pickle ball lines.
Cost: $24,905
Playground area: Complete removal and installation of two (2) play structures. All work includes demolition and removal of existing swings and climber. Site preparation which includes play boarders, ADA ramps, engineering wood fibers and permitting.
Cost: $35,111
In order to make these changes that the Hills of Ocala Advisory Board finds desirable for the residents, funds would need to be transferred to Improvements Other Than Buildings.
The funds are available in Buildings - Construction Improvements. These funds would not be used for the initially intended purpose this year, as a roof extension would cost more than previously estimated. The Advisory Board voted to make other improvements for the residents' use.
This is a one-time change.
