We had a lightening strike that hit a tree by the lake and seemed to run through the root and into the underground wiring. It damaged the co axle cable running to the front gate. it also damaged the teleentry pad. We are waiting for the electrician to run the new wire to the connection to the teleentry system then Bartlett Security will tie it to the telentry pad and the transformer which we can't find right now so we will install a new one. We are hoping they will begin this week. We are also looking to see how to put a more efficient surge protector on the Co axle lines in an attempt to prevent this from happening again.

9/20/11
We would like to welcome new owners: David and Candice; Krystyna; Berisford and Vernie; John; Stuart and Denise; Stuart; Brian; Colleen Lynn; and Joyce.

Ed Forte reported on the storm water control box issues with the Master Association which could cause the need for a special assessment to all the residents of all of Sawgrass Lakes including Hammock Cove.  The costs associated with this issue are undetermined at this time. Bids are currently being obtained. 

The issue of graffiti on the adjoining shopping center wall is being addressed by management and a police report has already been filed.   

2 Police Officers from PSL were at Ed Forte’s home asking for a list of the presidents of the master association.  They also mentioned that Hammock Cove was one of the safest HOA’s in their jurisdiction of PSL.  Ed is waiting to hear from the Sherriff’s department regarding the no trespassing signs; there could be a small charge involved for the signs.   

Denise Singer of 524 SW Sundance Trail has volunteered to head the Social Committee.  Thank you Denise.

Please be advised that the monthly HOA meeting scheduled for Tuesday, June 21, is being changed to Tuesday, June 28, at 7:00 p.m.  This will be the last meeting for the Summer.

 4/21/11
Due to an excessive cost, the locks on the gate at the RV lot will not be changed.  However, they will be repinned. 

The City has paid the Master Association $4,500 for a pipe which they had broken located on common grounds by the gas station (on the corner of Darwin and Tulip).  The repair work will be be done for $4,500. 

The HOA filed its tax return and did not have to pay any taxes!

The clubhouse was inspected by the fire marshall.  The fire extinguisher needed to be replaced, because it had been discharged.  We got a replacement at no charge.  The fire extinguisher is not a toy -- PLEASE DO NOT PLAY WITH IT!  The fire marshall will come back to reinspect the clubhouse.

The soffit on the clubhouse was blown off by wind.  A repairman will check to see what needs to be done and it will be fixed.

The lights at the front gate have been replaced.

The Board asked Erika (the property manager) to get prices for the cost of having the wall at the front entrance pressure washed and painted.

Erika was told that the keypad for the entry gate needs to be replaced at a cost of $5,000.  The Board will begin looking into other keypads before making a decision.

The Board will also get prices for signs that say "NO TRESPASSING" which will be posted in several places around the common area.

 2/16/11
The Master Association has sent out bills for the RV lot.  If you have items there, please be sure to remit your payment.

Hulett Environment Services did an inspection  on the Clubhouse and there are no termites!

A digital adapter will be installed on the television in the Clubhouse shortly.

Thank you to Ernie Beaudoin, Donald Ege, Betty Erb and Robert Wisniewski  for volunteering to serve on an Appeals Committee.  Florida law states before a fine can be levied against a homeowner for failure to correct a violation, the homeowner has the right to appear before an Appeals Committee.  After listening to the homeowner, the Committee recommends to the Board whether or not the homeowner should be fined.  If the homeowner fails to appear at the date and time scheduled, then this right is forfeited.

Thank you to Jim Haddon, Joe Kara, Jack McGinness and Ken Mihalik for volunteering on the previous Appeals Committee.

 
1/12/11
The Homeowners Association showed a profit for 2010 on the house it had foreclosed on due to non-payment of maintenance fees.

A motion was made by the Treasurer and approved by all Directors present to move $8,500 (half  of the excess funds from the 2010 budget) into a reserve for allowance for bad debt.

At the February 15th meeting, elections will be held for the three vacant Board positions.  

The locks on the RV lot are being changed.  New stickers will also be issued.  If you need additional information, please call our property manager Erika @ 871-0004.

The soffits on the Clubhouse need to be inspected to determine the cause of the damage to them.  If necessary, a termite inspection will follow.

The front entrance lights that are currently not working will be checked and replaced.

 1/4/11
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

Thank you to Bob Hoppas, Joe Kara, Ken Mihalik, Bernie McCrary, Rob and Elaine Wisniewski for putting up the Christmas decorations at the front entrance! 

Kudos to all the residents who take time to volunteer and help out around our community throughout the year.  It is greatly appreciated!

It has come to the Board's attention that some of the 2011 Coupon Books which are used to remit the HOA fees have misprints.  Please check each page of your Coupon Book to make sure your address (listed under the account number) is correct.  If your Book has any errors, please contact our property manager Erika @ 772-871-0004.
