Since the last General Meeting was held back on March 25th, we will bring you up to date on projects that have been completed from March 25th through today.

In late March, Allstate Resource Management stocked our lakes with 3000 freshwater fish, the Annual Tree Trimming Project was completed in April and The Plumbing Company replaced the grease trap and plumbing in the Café’s Kitchen.  In addition, JAV Multiservice, installed a ventilation system for the Beauty Salon and CJ’s Welding service repaired one of the exit gates at the front entrance, which was damaged when a vehicle rammed into it.  Fortunately, we were able to be reimbursed for those damages due to us having the incident recorded on video. 

In May,  The Plumbing Company installed three water shutoff valves in the Clubhouse,  Carrier Corporation replaced two condenser fan motors on the Unit 2 air conditioners of the Center and the POA purchased a new Ping Pong Table. 

During the months of June and July, JAV Multiservice, completed work on the new entrance to the Fitness Center and also completed the work on the total renovation of the Beauty Salon on July 22nd.  Also in July, TEM Systems had to replace electronic equipment at the Military Trail entrance and the gate at the Cabana Club, which were both damaged by lightning storms in early July. S.P.M. Inc., replaced the entire outer wall of the Ladies Outdoor Shower, which had fallen down and separated from the side of the building and Crown Seamless Gutters, Inc., installed gutters and downspouts on the east side of the roof and the breezeway portion of the Fitness Center Building.

The month of August saw the completion of the new Picnic Area, which consists of a concrete pad with two new gas grills and four picnic tables with umbrellas.  The Social Club donated $3,000.00 toward the project.  Other items that were repaired or replaced include a compressor for the Freezer in the Catering Kitchen of the Center, purchase of a new Refrigerator for the Café Storage Room and replacement of the aluminum trees, which was stolen off of the sign at the main entrance of the community.  The sign’s other tree and lettering on both sides was removed and securely anchored to discourage theft.  

September projects consisted of the Annual Tennis Court Resurfacing Project in which courts 1, 6 and 7 were completed by Papico Construction Company on September 18th , Gold Coast Surfaces completed repairing or filling cracks and sealing the Pool Deck on September 23rd.and  Al Hoffer Pest Protection Services completed treatment throughout the property for weeds, fertilization of shrubs and the quarterly treatment for White Fly, September 28th and 29th.

Over the summer, our staff completed many in-house projects such as painting inside the clubhouse, painting street signs or other areas in need of refurbishing.  In addition, the staff participated in constructing the concrete pad at the picnic area, repairing sidewalks, trenching for the lake aeration fountain, as well as, responding to work requests and completing the routine tasks that they do on a daily basis.

As of this month, Southeastern Surfaces & Equipment, Inc. serviced the partition wall in the Banyan Room on October 8th, which was not closing properly.  In addition, the entire wall was cleaned, lubricated, adjusted and aligned for a cost of $1,000.00.

On Friday, October 16th, Rolladen, Inc. was called out to repair the shutter door of the Café.  The universal crank was replaced at a cost of $151.18.

Also on October 16th, Thompson and Thompson Fencing repaired 90 Feet of chain link fence behind Terrace Homes #1 at a cost of $390.00, which had come apart due to the Ficus hedge.

Allstate Management Resources delivered the lighted fountain and electrical control panel for the Lake Aeration Project on Friday, October 16th.  This afternoon, Air Ref Electric was on property to wire and connect the electrical wiring from the building to the fountain.  We are awaiting final inspection by the Palm Beach County Electrical Inspector before Allstate Management Resources returns to position the fountain in the lake and make final adjustments.

S.P.M Inc. is awaiting delivery from the manufacturer of the new fabricated heavy duty doors for the dumpster area on the side of the Clubhouse.  As soon as they arrive, they will be installed and will certainly improve the look of the area for residents and guests visiting our Clubhouse.

Today, TEM Systems repaired the gate arm at the Resident’s Gate, which had some mechanical problems that required new parts before being repaired.

Management is currently working with the Condo Associations’ and the POA Finance Committee to prepare their 2010 Proposed Budgets and also schedule Annual Meetings and Elections.

Al Hoffer Pest Protection Services will be in the community next week to apply fertilizer throughout the entire property according to our annual contract.

The next P.O.A. Workshop Meeting is scheduled for next Thursday, October 29, 2009 at 10:00am in the Banyan Room.
