COMMUNITY BULLETINS:
09/04/2024: The next community yard sale is coming on Saturday November 2nd for 2024. We encourage all residents to participate by putting out items for sale or by shopping the sales of other community members. Signs will go out the at the entrances the week prior to the sale. Please remember not to place personal signs for sales on the properties of other residents. They may be placed in the common areas if they are removed promptly following the sale. Please contact us with any questions. Community yard sales are held the first Saturday of April and November each year.
08/12/2024: Per Polk County, BEGINNING OCTOBER 1ST, recycling will no longer be collected in our community, so no Monday pickup of any kind will occur. Both Yard Waste and Household Waste (regular trash- green can) will now be collected each Tuesday. Bulk pickup will continue to be the 1st Tuesday of each month.
06/06/2024: Bobcats have been seen and heard being active at night in the last few days in the community. Coyotes and Alligators also tend to be more active during the summer months. Please take extra precautions if you are walking late at night or in the early morning hours, and take precautions for small pets. Any incidents involving wildlife can be reported to FWC at 888-404-3922.
04/05/2024: The Community Yard Sale event is tomorrow, Saturday April 6th. We encourage all residents to put out some items for sale, or shop the sales of others. Thank you to those who participate!
02/27/2024: The Board of Directors held the first quarterly board meeting on Monday, February 26, 2024 at 1:00PM at the Polk County Sheriff's Office Northeast Substation, located at 1100 Dunson Rd in Davenport. The agenda and minutes for this meeting may be viewed in the resident's only section of the website.
02/09/2024: We have received reports of an aggressive dog being walked (leashed) in the neighborhood. We remind all residents that while walking (with or without your pet) in our Community, the local park, or any where people may be walking animals, to never assume that an animal being walked on a leash is friendly, or that the owner has control over the animal. Precautions you can take to keep yourself safe while walking include giving a wide berth to those walking dogs, especially if you are also walking your pet; utilizing a walking stick; noise deterrent devices; legally approved pepper sprays; and reading up on what to do (and what not to do) should you encounter an aggressive animal as a pedestrian. If anyone has documented information on any such incident, please report it to Polk County Animal Control at 863-577-1762.

Certain items will no longer be collected for bulk pickup, and landscaping waste will now only be collected if in bags, bins, or properly bundled per their specifications. See their website for details.
Per POLK COUNTY, continue to schedule bulk pickups in advance, even for the designated day. Bulk Pickup in our community now takes place on the 1st Tuesday of each month. Bulk Trash is permitted to be out 2 days prior and the day of pickup each month. Bulk trash on the curb on any other dates will be considered a violation of the trash policy.

| Polk County Fire Rescue |
|
Polk County Fire Rescue reminds you that having highly visible house numbers can help emergency responders save valuable seconds when locating a possible emergency. This can mean a difference between life and death if they cannot provide possible life saving measures in time.
Please find below 6 guidelines to follow when you examine your property to see if your number is visible and your address is easy to locate.
Number 1 - According to Polk County E9-1-1 Addressing Ordinance 04/89, home address numbers should be clearly visible and at least 3 inches in height to be seen clearly from the street or roadway while traveling in either direction at the posted speed.
Number 2 - Numbers should be made of weather resistant materials and placed on a contrasting background, if possible a reflective coating on the number is recommended for easy visibility at night.
Number 3 - Numbers should be Arabic numbers e.g: 3, not Three or III.
Number 4 - Repair or replace aging address placards, especially on mailboxes that are a distance from the front of the residence.
Number 5 - Prune back bushes, tree limbs and any growth obstructing the house numbers.
Number 6 - Finally, address numbers should be displayed by permanently attaching them to the building front and Mailbox, and be visible from the roadway.

| Garden of the Month |
|
The Garden of the Month Award is given to members who demonstrate exemplary groundskeeping on their property. The Award of Merit is given similarly, or to members who have made noticeable aesthetic improvements. This award is noted by signs which are placed on the winning properties each month.
If you have received an award, congratulations and thank you so much for being an example of outstanding property maintenance in our community.
You are free to move the sign to the location of your choosing in your yard, but please return it to a location by the road edge on the last day of the month, so volunteers can retrieve it.
The Home of the Year award is given on an annual basis by the Board of Directors, to a home which has maintained outstanding standards continuously. This award is announced at the annual Members Meeting. |
