Facility Maintenance-Alan Not at the meeting
The light posts at the Stirling Rd. entrance were replaced with smaller fixtures and it was
decided to return them and to order the more expensive larger fixtures to match what we had
before. It will take another 6 weeks to get them and to have them installed since they have
to be special ordered. 28 bulbs at the entranceways were replaced and timers will replace
the photocells that haven't been working properly.
It was decided to have the sidewalks pressure cleaned professionally twice a year and the
board voted, Val O'Connor made a motion and it was seconded by Tina Franetic.
The palm frongs at the entrances are falling and breaking the lights underneath them. The
trees have to be cleaned up before they fall to the ground.

Special Patrol Officer Jeremy Stone attended the meeting to give us a lot of tips and to answer
some of our concerns.
1) In regards to parking in the street: He said legally our streets our public streets and it is legal
to park in the streets as long as they do not block driveways and do not obstruct the flow of
traffic.
2) Low speed vehicles such as golf carts are illegal in our area. Call the police if you see them
on the streets or on the side of the roads. The only golf carts that are legal are ones that fit the
following criteria: hours of operation are between the hours of sunrise to sunset; are equipped
with headlights, brake lights, turn signals, and a windshield, efficient brakes, reliable steering
apparatus, safe tires, a rearview mirror, and red reflectorized warning devices in both the
front and rear. Noone under the age of 14 can operate a golf carton public roads or streets.
Other laws pertaining to low-speed vehicles: Operated only on roads posted 35 miles per
hour or less. Must be equipped with headlamps, stop lamps, turn signal lamps, taillamps,
reflex reflectors, parking brakes, rearview mirrors, windshields, seat belts, and vehicle
identification numbers. Must be registered and insured and operator must have in their
possession a valid driver's license. In the interest of safety can be prohibited.
3) ATV's are illegal in our area. Call the police if you see them on the streets or on the
side of the roads. Restrictions are as follows: no person under 16 years of age shall
operate or ride the vehicle without a safety helmet and eye protection. May not
be operated upon the public roads or streets or on the sides of roads or streets.
4) Identity theft: 37 cases of identity theft have been reported just in our area alone. The
officer does not believe that it is from our mailboxes. It was suggested that on the internet,
when the title companies put the warranty deeds of the homeowners on the internet they
included the social security numbers. To check your info and to have anything removed
that you don't want on the internet, go to: www.broward.org/records . He suggested
investing in a monthly credit monitoring plan as a safeguard.
5) We discussed that we are paying to have our streets patrolled and whether a speed
sign on the sign of the road would be beneficial since so many people speed down our
main roads in our development. The officer asked for volunteers for the sign to be in
front of their houses.
6) We discussed the solicitation going on in our neighborhood and he said since our roads
are a public thoroughfare it is harder to deal with legally. The solicitors do need to have
permits to go door to door.
7) We are in need of Crime Watch signs. Crime watch educates you, motivates you to
be a witness, if you see something, you call the police. The officer suggested putting it in
a blog.
8) Mediation: there is no state statue of harassment; do not confront anybody; you have
to have proof - you cannot create evidence.
9) Officer White gave us some literature that will be posted on the website.
Meeting adjourned at 8:46 pm by Tina Franetic, John Ayala seconded the motion.
