Two places to go to get your answers:
1) call DPM and ask them what the status is, 352-753-4022,
or
2) go to the CDD-2 meeting on August 10, 2018 @ 9:30 AM at Lake Sumter Landing in the District Board Room (up the stairs and through the doorway to the right of the receptionist)

I would recommend calling DPM first as they would be coordinating any maintenance or repair work and should be able to provide a status. If you are going to go to the CDD-2 meeting give your district representatives a call or email and let them know the issue you want to discuss so they can be prepared with answers for you and have it put on the meeting agenda, otherwise you may need to wait until the following meeting to get an answer.

Yours is a legitimate concerns that deserves and answer. There could be any number of reasons for the delay - budget constraints, awaiting contract award, scheduling, ground conditions, or a dozen other reasons. Ask the questions and require answers.

One last thought, not every ground depression or erosion is a "sink hole". A "sink hole" is a very specific geological event, the way the term is thrown around here in TV is like calling every rain storm we get a hurricane. Many media outlets here use the term for any ground anomaly in an effort to generate interest, a very poor journalistic practice.
