The fee has been established to take care of the clubhouse, swimming pool, common area amenities, individual lawn care and sprinkler system maintenance as well as to establish reserves for future expenses. During the time the Developer controls the Community Association, the Developer is required by Florida Statutes to pay any expenses that exceed the monthly maintenance fee paid by the owners. At such time as the owners assume control of the Community Association, they may adjust the fees up or down based on the budget for the Community Association and the vote of the Board of Directors. An important aspect of the Community Association is the Architectural Review Committee that reviews and approves proposed changes to ensure that major deviations do not occur. Owners have a unique code number assigned that enables them to signal the entrance gate to open.
Automatic openers are also available.
The system senses departing vehicles and the exit gates are automatically opened. The control system has a call button for each home in the community. Guests can signal their arrival at the gate, talk to the resident to identify themselves and then be allowed entry when the resident pushes the designated button on their home telephone. All utility services have been installed in underground conduits to avoid unsightly poles and wires. All services terminate at each homesite and are available to be connected according to individual requirements.
