Mattes, CPRE, CPSI, Parks and Recreation Director RE: January 2026 Monthly Report During January, construction activities continued to progress across multiple park improvement projects. At Veterans Wayside Park, the sitting wall is complete, walking paths have been laid out, and concrete work is anticipated to be finished by February 6. Stone river beds have been installed, and playground equipment is scheduled for delivery on February 10. At Gary Matzner Park, playground equipment has been delivered and is already being installed, while construction continues on the parking lot, irrigation system, walking paths, restroom and office building, and lighting conduit. At Coral Pine Park, significant progress is being made, with installation underway for lighting bollards, a water fountain, an ADA-accessible pathway to the multipurpose room, grading of the Great Lawn, the exterior deck, and final parking lot surfacing and striping. No major delays are anticipated, with substantial completion projected for mid to late February and final completion expected in mid to late March. At Aleyda Mas Park, construction documents are under permitting review. Updated plans will be resubmitted for final review, with the goal of releasing the bid set the first week in February to allow adequate time for bidding, evaluation, and potential contract award consideration at the April Council meeting. Bicycle and pedestrian counters for Red Road Linear Park and the Kendall Drive Shared Use Path have been delivered, and coordination is underway for installation within the next several weeks. From a programming perspective, the annual FitCrest 5K was successfully held at the beginning of the month, drawing approximately 200 participants and reflecting modest growth in participation compared to last year. Overall, the Department continues to make steady progress on capital projects and community programming.

The data charts summarize YTD metrics for the month of December 2025. Arts, Performances & Events December was one of the busiest months of the year for arts and events, anchored by the run of Nights of Lights and a full schedule of performances across the Banyan Bowl and Meadow. Over 15 nights, Nights of Lights combined immersive holiday displays with live performances, storytelling, and family-friendly activities. A notable milestone was the event’s menorah lighting ceremony, presented in partnership with a local temple, reinforcing the Gardens’ commitment to inclusivity. Performing arts highlights included multiple community dance and orchestra performances supporting Nights of Lights, Candlelight Concerts featuring holiday-themed tributes, youth and school showcases, and the sold-out Tropical Nights: Parranda Navideña concert featuring Chino Núñez. The Miami-Dade Cultural Passport program also returned with Scrooge, serving 527 students. Across ticketed concerts, educational performances, and holiday programming, the Gardens welcomed more than 12,000 attendees in December, reinforcing its role as a cultural destination during the holiday season. Education December marked a smooth close to the calendar year for education programming at Pinecrest Gardens, with steady engagement continuing alongside seasonal holiday activities. Core programs remained active through early December, with Parent & Me memberships and education offerings collectively serving more than 500 participants across classes, workshops, and group visits. Homeschool Co-School completed its fall sessions before pausing mid-month, and Little Lizards continued to engage young learners with two well-attended, nature-based sessions. Education staff successfully supported school and group visits and coordinated program adjustments as needed to accommodate exhibitions and Nights of Lights operations, ensuring a positive and consistent experience for families and instructors. Pinecrest Gardens | Page 2 Monthly Report The 12th Annual Student Art Contest remained a key focus throughout the month, with submissions continuing to be accepted from Miami-Dade County students in grades 4–12. The contest culminated in January in conjunction with the Art & Design Fair and remains an important platform for youth creative expression and community engagement. Collections & Horticulture Horticultural work in December balanced support for Nights of Lights programming with targeted improvements to the Gardens’ landscapes and living collections. Preparations and plantings across the Lakeview Terrace planters, beds, and coral rock walls, including the installation of flowering succulents and vines commenced. Phase 2 of planting at the Whilden/Carrier Cottage was also completed with native groundcover, strengthening both ecological function and visual continuity. A significant focus this month was the completion of an independent arborist assessment of the Ficus trees in the parking lot. The resulting report provides a framework for a thoughtful, multi-year management plan that prioritizes the phased removal and replacement of the most deteriorated trees while identifying strategies to extend the life of others where feasible. This proactive approach supports public safety, long-term canopy health, and responsible stewardship of Garden assets. Additional plant collection care included routine plant health maintenance and the installation of a rare native orchid near the Gardens’ entrance, adding a new botanical highlight for visitors. Rentals, Concessions & Capital Projects December operations were shaped by the scale and duration of Nights of Lights, which occupied multiple spaces and limited private rental availability. As expected, rental activity was higher than the same time last year because of the reopening of venues; and, general garden visitation and strong community engagement tied to holiday programming. The Lakeview Terrace officially opened to the public on January 2, marking a major milestone and adding a renewed gathering space for visitors. With the opening, the Concession Tower resumed service on weekends, supporting guest experience during peak attendance periods. Capital improvements continued across several projects, including progress on the Nursery facility with exterior tile work, grading, and driveway paving, as well as ongoing upgrades to the Banyan Bowl restrooms. Operational coordination across facilities, concessions, and security remained essential to managing high visitor volume. These efforts ensured smooth operations while positioning the Gardens for increased rentals, concessions, and earned revenue in the months ahead. FOPG and Grants Update We were also pleased to receive a Community Arts Grant from Miami-Dade County Cultural Affairs in support of our arts programming. In addition, applications were submitted to the National Endowment for the Arts, and the Friends of Pinecrest Gardens’ Season of Giving campaign exceeded last year’s results by an additional 5%, reflecting continued community investment in our mission. Pinecrest Gardens | Page 3 Monthly Report Pinecrest Gardens – By the Numbers Below the charts demonstrate fiscal year-to-date performance metrics through December 2025 compared to the same period the prior FY2024. Chart 1 – Financial Summary Cost recovery for the month is 77%. Expenses were higher due to the multi- week festival, end-of-semester instructor payouts, and deposits for first-quarter 2026 talent contracts, with holiday festival and concession costs offset by ticket and food & beverage sales. Additional impacts included café and concession tower resale expenses, two unplanned items maintenance and repairs items, and ongoing increases in material and service costs. Chart 2 – Participation: Total participation increased compared to December ’24, primarily driven by higher attendance in the Botanical Garden and Festivals, Markets, and Special Events, resulting in higher overall engagement. $245,009 $316,232 $255,391 $229,138 $- $50,000 $100,000 $150,000 $200,000 $250,000 $300,000 $350,000 Revenues Expenses Revenues and Expenses YTD Dec-25 YTD Dec-24 7,196 13,415 7,687 419 647 28,717 3,299 16,192 4,350 529 287 24,370 - 5,000 10,000 15,000 20,000 25,000 30,000 35,000 Botanical Garden Festivals, Markets & Special Events Performing & Visual Arts Education Rental Participants Total Participants By Program Area Dec-25 Dec-24 Pinecrest Gardens | Page 4 Monthly Report Chart 3 – Membership & Subscriptions December ’25 year-to-date memberships and subscriptions reflect continued engagement across core programs, with strong performance in music series subscriptions and steady participation across education offerings.

Harris and Redline Iguana Removal in a long-term, humane program to manage the Village’s peafowl population. Over the past two years, this initiative has sought to responsibly reduce the population while prioritizing animal welfare. Trappers transport the birds to Pinecrest Gardens, where they are cared for, examined under anesthesia, and humanely vasectomized or spayed and tagged before being returned to their natural habitat. The program will continue until the Village Council determines that the population has been sufficiently reduced or provides additional direction. As of February 2, 2026 a total of 563 peafowl have been captured and transported to Dr. Harris. Of these, 289 were males that underwent the full veterinary procedure before being safely returned and tagged with a distinctive blue ankle bracelet. Among the 274 peahens, 234 were tagged and released, while 40 received the full procedure and were also returned safely. Moving forward, both peacocks and peahens will undergo the procedure as part of the Village’s continued commitment to humane population management Total Captured Males (Captured and Sterilized) Females Females Spayed 563 289 274 40
