Accord Planetary Motion, Inc. v. Techsplosion, Inc., 261 F.3d 1188, 1193 C.A.11 (Fla.), 2001. OSHNA UDRP COMPLAINT - 2 - [5.] FACTUAL AND LEGAL GROUNDS Background This is a dispute between two local neighborhood organizations in Tampa, Florida. Complainant, OSHNA, is an officially recognized neighborhood association with an established membership of more than 500 active members representing approximately 400 families. Since records have been kept, more than 2000 individuals at more than 1600 addresses have been members. OSHNA sponsors annual events including the “Paint Your Heart Out” event for low-income elders, a children’s Pumpkin Parade, decorating events, holiday dinner and holiday carolers concert. For eleven years, it has brought more than 1,000 visitors to the neighborhood for its annual Home Tour of distinctive bungalow-style homes. The annual budget this year is in the neighborhood of fifty thousand dollars, up from $6775 in 2000. Candidate forums occur in election years, and quarterly general membership meetings are heavily advertised and attract large turnouts. More than a decade of goodwill in OSHNA is likewise reflected in the thousands of volunteer hours put in each year. This year alone more than 3,000 hours of volunteer time has been contributed to date. OSHNA sends out mailers and ballots to a list of subscribers numbering more than 500 for a total of more than 4,700 pieces annually. Email has been sent by OSHNA since 1998. Today messages are sent to a list of more than 825 individuals. Since a change of system software in 2007, OSHNA has sent more than 300 items comprising more than 225,000 emails altogether. Its newsletter The Advisor is also distributed in paper form to a circulation of more than 500. OSHNA is organized as a Florida 501c4 corporation, and has been recognized by the City of Tampa for more than twenty years. OSHNA also developed branding standards for the use of its name and logo in the local business community. In stark contrast, Respondent/ Registrant is a founder of a new corporation, the Seminole Heights Foundation (SHF), created in March, 2009 by former board members of OSHNA. The domain in dispute, oldseminoleheightsfoundation.org, was registered by Hess as founder of SHF and is a redirect for seminoleheightsfoundation.org, the primary domain of the new SHF organization. SHF is not a City of Tampa neighborhood association. The term “Seminole Heights” dates back to the early 1900’s and describes a geographic location around the intersection of Hillsborough Avenue and Central Avenue, north of downtown Tampa. Contemporary usage is inclusive of three separate, contiguous neighborhoods: Old Seminole Heights, South Seminole Heights, and Southeast Seminole Heights, each of which is individually recognized through its member-based neighborhood association by the City of Tampa. “Old Seminole Heights” is a name devised by residents in conjunction with recognition by the City of Tampa, and later, the Florida Department of Transportation and National Register of Historic Places. It specifically connotes the people in the neighborhood in the minds of others. One board member, Ms. DiBona, described it: Old Seminole Heights is about who we are as a community, a group of like-minded people who established a “club” to protect, preserve and promote a way of life which we felt was significant. This feeling was begun by a small group of friends and neighbors who lived within the compact original boundaries. As the group grew in numbers, people who lived in the outlying areas, 0210. See also WIPO/D2001-0059; WIPO/D2000-1764. Accord Planetary Motion, Inc. v. Techsplosion, Inc., 261 F.3d 1188, 1193 C.A.11 (Fla.), 2001. OSHNA UDRP COMPLAINT - 3 - wanted to be identified with Old Seminole Heights, as they valued the long-established sense of community existing here. It was an attitude of belonging and neighborly pride in what we had accomplished, not a legal description of our properties. Old Seminole Heights was our attempt to replicate the miniature township that this community enjoyed during our parents and grandparents generations. It is our inherited legacy. Clearly, the use of the designation that one is “from Old Seminole Heights” connotes more than identifying the parcel of land owned. It says, “I represent this group of folks with compatible values and beliefs who have come together to reach a common goal. I am designated (by virtue of my elected and appointed positions) to speak on behalf of these people, as long as I do so within the boundaries to which we have agreed”. It is a door-opener, as it is usually met with something like, “Oh, hi! You’re from Old Seminole Heights?” and then the conversation can continue. Mr. St. Ives described his experience: Seminole Heights is a geographic area. Old Seminole Heights is more; it’s a concept as well as a geographic area. What it represents to the people who live here and to the people of Tampa is a gracious way of living. A place where neighbors not only know neighbors but help neighbors, talk to neighbors, and really care. When you say Old Seminole Heights to another Civic Association they say ‘Wow, you’re the folks who did…’ and they name it off and add ‘..that benefitted X or that helped to complete Y. Some Civic groups will say … ‘You’re the folks who helped us get set up and running.’ If you say Old Seminole Heights to a political group such as City Council or the County Commission they will immediately recognize us as the group that spoke on such and such, or the group that opposed thus and so, or the folks who supported Z. Old Seminole Heights is known for not only developing concepts but for following through with their execution. The recognition of the community extends beyond Tampa Bay itself. The current issue of This Old House named Seminole Heights one of the “Best of the South,” making specific mention of its strong neighborhood organizations. Domain name dispute The dispute in this case arises from the manner in which the SHF leadership obtained the domain name. The following sequence of events is illuminating. The issue of 501c3 status has kicked around OSHNA for years. On August 28, 2008, OSHNA established a 501c3 committee charged with investigation of how best to proceed to create such a new entity, including specific discussion of what name and domain would be used. On September 16, 2008, Mr.

  • Southeast Seminole Heights Flooding Relief Project Construction Impacts
    Southeast Seminole Heights Flooding Relief Project Construction Impacts - Questions and Answers August 2021 When will construction start? When will it end? Construction is scheduled to begin in late September or early October 2021 and will be completed approximately 2.5 years later. What are the construction hours? Will there be night work? Construction will typically occur on weekdays from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Night and weekend work may be needed on occasion for major road crossings, connections or paving. If night or weekend work is required, crews will provide advance notification to residents to minimize inconvenience. Will construction take place one street at a time or will crews be working on multiple streets simultaneously? Multiple crews will work simultaneously in different locations. Construction will begin first in South Seminole Heights at Crest Avenue and the Hillsborough River, with replacement of the outfall structure at the river and utility relocations along Crest. Micro-tunnel shafts on East Caracas Avenue extending under I-275 will occur at the same time. While crews work at the river and on West Crest Avenue, another crew will begin relocating utilities and installing storm culverts on Central Avenue at East Giddens Avenue, moving south to Caracas. After storm drains are installed from Central to Caracas, crews will begin installing storm drains on Caracas east of I-275. Will Rivercrest and Haya Linear Park be closed due to construction? Rivercrest Park and Haya Linear Park will remain open during construction. Crews will be working on the outfall to the Hillsborough River in a portion of Haya Linear Park; this area will be clearly delineated and barricaded.

  • The Seminole Heights Advisor
    The Seminole Heights Advisor The Official Publication of the Old Seminole Heights Neighborhood Association (OSHNA) Published Since 1988 - Our 31st Year “To promote and encourage the preservation and restoration of the area known as Seminole Heights” Annual Circulation 11,000 Spring 2020 www.oldseminoleheights.org From the OSHNA President By Tim Keeports It’s spring in The Heights and that means we were eagerly anticipating our annual Home Tour! With the current COVID-19 situation, we cancelled the 22nd Annual OSHNA Home Tour that was to be held April 5th and are planning for a wonderful home tour on the second Sunday of April 2021 as Easter falls on the first Sunday of April 2021. Occasionally I’m asked why OSHNA exists or why did we take a certain stance on some of the changes happening within our neighborhood – such as a development or road project. Our organization’s bylaws contain a very important section I try to keep in mind when answering: "Section 3 Purpose" states, “to promote and encourage the preservation and restoration of the area known as Seminole Heights while revitalizing a sense of community in a safe and healthy residential neighborhood….” This “Purpose” is important as it sets the tone at our Board meetings and guides our decision making. It also helps frame the issues we focus on and when it’s more appropriate to allow individual neighbors to handle their challenges or occasional differences. Additionally, the OSHNA Board participates in a bimonthly meeting with our neighboring associations to discuss and address our common efforts.
