    Please note that the old codes will still operate until the 1st May 2010 and we ask you all to advise all your Management Coy of this change and any renters that you may have advised of the old code
    
    Rental Villa Advertising
    I would like to advise you that the board have made a rental arrangement for owners who have joined up to the site on the HOA website which we hope will encourage interest in this section and also provide you with extra bookings during this difficult period. When joining, which will incur a small fee, the contact information will be provided to you .
    
    Weather
    As many of you are aware Florida has incurred very unusual weather conditions this year and has suffered from very severe frost which has affected all areas of grass and turned it yellow. From advice that we have been given it will recover and to assist in its progress we were advised not to cut for a period of around three weeks.
    
    Irrigation
    Once again I would like to draw your attention to the covenants in which it indicates that all owners must ensure that the irrigation at their properties is connected to the power in order that it operates during the specified times laid down by Polk Utilities. I must stress that if this covenant is violated the HOA will not be responsible for any deteriation of the grass areas around your property,
    
    Keep in Contact
    The board are trying to establish a record of owners e-mail addresses to enable our management and the board to make contact with you with vital information in connection with your property if need be quickly. If you have not done it before there is a section on the HOA website to update your details and also advise the board with any concerns that you may have.
    
    Dirty Pools
    We have a number of owners who have neglected their properties and allowed their pools to go black and decking to become dirty and unsightly to their neighbours which is irresponsible and furthermore it is not hygienic. If you are aware that your property is one of them please takes steps to correct this problem immediately for we are taking legal steps to resolve the situation
    
    Fees
    Enclosed is a letter from your treasurer pointing out the downfall of anyone who is in arrears of their fees which please read digest and rectify for as I have mentioned before the attorney fees involved for collection are very expensive and you have to pay them
    
    New Road Project
    As you may be aware from other sources the North Ridge Trail which borders some of the North and South perimeters of our communities is progressing and enclosed with this mail shot is a letter from our treasurer giving current details where it will involve you in some cases directly but others it will present no change at all
    
    IN THIS CONNECTION YOU WILL FIND DOCUMENTS TO BE COMPLETED BY ALL OWNERS GIVING APPROVAL TO THE BOARD TO ACT IN THE BEST INTERESTS OF EVERYONE OWNING A PROPERTY ON THE MANORS.
    
    IT IS IMPORTANT THAT YOU ACT AS PROMPTLY AS POSSIBLE AND RETURN YOUR VOTE/PROXY AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.
    
    Fence Project
    I would like to draw your attention to the project being undertaken by Don Knowles, one of your directors, in respect of the future replacement of all the perimeter wooden fencing which is coming to the end of its useful life. I would like to point out that this is a very complicated issue and also costly and the work will proceed after the completion by Don of all his investigations and priorities relevant to the project and the availability of funds. When all information and costs have been collated information will be placed on the HOA website and therefore it is imperative that we have and are kept up to date with your e-mail details.
    
    If you have any questions or concerns do not hesitate to contact the HOA via the website.
    
    Parking
    Finally the BOARD would like to bring your attention to the covenants relating to parking on the Community which states that no vehicle -( car) may be parked in the road - mobile homes- trailers or commercial vehicles are not allowed to park in the road, driveways or common areas on the community.
    
    Please note that any offenders will have same towed at owners expense and it would be therefore be prudent to have this information passed onto your renters and included in your villa rental conditions.
    
    This restriction was brought into force on the 10th March 2010 .
    
    Kind regards,
    
    Arthur Brown,
    
    President.
