A word from the President ...
SPRING BLESSINGS!
Grateful for DOUBLE BLESSINGS of ...
1 … Sprinklers back online after scuba divers cleaned both pump screens and replaced one pump, and
2 … Spring rains, finally!
ENHANCED POLICE PATROLS, in response to our residents calling in security issues to the police first, then our office. Pam Bushnell, Office Manager, has done a great Photos by Dave job of noting any patterns of vandalism and encouraging the Broward County Sheriff to give us more attention. Remember...call the police first!
POOL PLEASURES...Broward County relaxed the pandemic protocols for pools on April 19, recognizing transmission was not related to surfaces, but still prioritizing masks and physical distance among non-family groups. We are grateful to have returned some chairs and lounge chairs to the pool deck...under the canopy. For protection of our chairs and lounge chairs, please remember to lay towels down first, and to return all chairs under the canopy, so as to minimize sun damage. Outdoor restrooms and water fountain have been restored.
INDIVIDUAL RESPONSIBILITY...TO SELF AND OTHERS...is still a high priority. Respect one another and build up our community.
LOOKING GOOD! Compliance with cleaning roofs and driveways is progressing well. Second notices are being given to a few not yet in accordance with our community. Notices are now going out for landscape issues...tall trees (hurricane susceptible), large bushes, growth impeding mowers, or growth hanging over our roads.
Building our community together... J Paul Mutchler Board President Page 4 May - June 2021
