New Business:
ARB ?– Fences: After much discussion and review of the deed restrictions, amendments and input from the Board along with the ARB and owners attending, the Board unanimously gave the ARB full discretion on approving fence applications. The ARB is to base their approvals on the existing restrictions and use great discretion in what they consider a hardship to allow a variance of the existing restrictions.
Street Parking and Basketball Nets in Street: The Board voted unanimously to allow the existing deed restriction amendment to stand with the full knowledge they have no jurisdiction over public right-of-ways and the restrictions is non-enforceable. The Board did not feel it necessary to go thru the administrative procedure and expense of another amendment to reverse the former amendment to prevent parking on the streets. Code enforcement will need to be called about the basketball nets in the street in those cases where it legitimately is a hazard to motorists.
Deed Restriction Enforcement: Gary briefed the Board on the Florida Statutory changes and what procedures are necessary to force compliance.
Entry Lighting: Trisha volunteered her time and her resources to review the entry lighting and make recommendations to the Board along with estimates on replacing all the existing lighting at the entrances.
