Being Prepared

Most of us living in Florida, I would assume, have experienced either a mild or maybe even the severe affects of a hurricane.  If you haven't experienced either consider yourself the lucky one.

I'm including some information for young and old alike.  

 One from Ready.gov a Fema website and the other from Sesame Street. 

There is a little of something for everyone on all those sites.  

If you have any ideas please leave a comment and I'll forward it to the necessary people or save it for an upcoming meeting.

Hurricane Prep through a Community or HOA

Busy

Just last week, in case anyone didn't know, Barbara Jahn and Vernon cleaned the round white shades at the pool and  bought and changed light bulbs as well.  This saved a considerable amount of money for all of us.  
It's little things like this that will in the future save us money.  

Realizing time is of the essence for everyone and we all can't be available when schedules are made to do these projects, I'm sure somewhere along the way we'll all get our chance.  We each have our strengths and weaknesses and eventually we'll find our comfort zone, niche, or whatever.


If there is something you are good at that you think would be a help to our community please let us know, leave a comment. 

Minutes of Last Board Meeting...8/15/11

For those of you who attended the BOD meeting on Monday evening I think you will agree that your presence is making a definite difference. The distance between the BOD and the community is getting closer. Participation between the audience and the board during the meeting was on-going and productive.


If you were unable to attend, here are some of the issues discussed:


Two more members of the BOD have resigned. Three remain: Lee, Lisa and Vernon.


The pay-back plan for the reserve account was brought to the table - funds withdrawn as far back as 2008.


What to do about the home on Wareham Ct, now (owned?) by Beacon Hill HOA due to default in monthly assessments.


A less expensive, more effective way to handle minor maintenance and repairs. One immediate solution: a group of homeowners
will be cleaning globes on the pool lights and replacing burned out bulbs on Thursday morning.


And finally a motion was passed to complete all necessary repairs to the sprinkler system to get it fully operational; followed by a
round of applause.
