The problem here is that The Developer built the stuff and turned it over to the residents to maintain. If TD did a bad job building it, then they should bear some level of responsibility for fixing it.

That's not what I said. But, twist it whichever way you want.

You said the entertainment square is the responsibility of the residents so the public can enjoy the square. No spin whatsoever.

Again - the decorative, non-functional windmill and the decorative, non-functional water tower are not infrastructure. And removal and replacement of these decorative additions is not "maintenance." You don't maintain something by demolishing it and building a new one. That would fall under the category of "replacement."

Not infrastructure, not maintenance. That rule doesn't apply to this situation.

Actually they are infrastructure.

Also, landscape is part of infrastructure.

Landscape Architects design soft and hard infrastructures.
From LA site:
Landscape infrastructure is an evolutionary approach to strategizing economically and environmentally sustainable multipurpose infrastructure systems, reversing urban sprawl and regenerating our invaluable natural resources.

As the world faces an urgent need for new and repaired infrastructure systems, design and planning professionals have the crucial opportunity to reimagine networks that support multiple uses and functions. Multipurpose infrastructure conserves land, shares the financial load of its development, restores previously overlooked or damaged natural ecologies, reinforces healthy transit options, and provides public access to much needed open space.

Wait until Floridians have to pay for when Disney is no longer it's own governmental unit. That was a super smart move. We showed them!

Took some pics of the problem the other day. Looks like there was a quick fix tried at one time. Somebody forgot that wood will wick moisture if not sealed.

Hopefully you are more knowledgeable than what you are stating.

Please let's tear it down and move on. Why is this such a huge issue? oh, wait it's going to cost $$$$ everyone in the district. Forget the rebuilding part.

Just wait until the lighthouse at LSL needs to be replaced next year.

In other words, it's an ongoing problem they knew about (if they didn't know about it, they wouldn't have known to try and fix it). They chose to apply an inefficient, or inappropriate patch, and then either chose to ignore it when it got worse, or didn't follow up to...
(what's that word again?)

(oh yeah)

MAINTAIN.

After looking at Bilyclub's pictures, I have had properly treated timber last longer in the ground, than that stuff above ground level.
