Town Hall Notes

For other people who, like me, were unable to attend the latest Town Hall meeting, Ed and Dee were kind enough to keep minutes for us.  

MINUTES FOR  11/12/11 TOWN HALL MEETING
The Meeting started at 10am with approximately 70 in attendance.

Brighthouse  with discussion of closed circuit This will be active on December lst on either Channel 95 or 96.  If   you have problems, call Brighthouse.

2.    Discussion on the condition of the medical equipment in the office, and the defibrillator and how to use it. This unit is automatically checked and is OK..instructions are verbal when opening.

3.    DNR forms:  This is the form you must fill out re:  resucitating.. do you   
                        Want to be helped or not…office will supply and laminate for
                         You. 
4.     Is the sign out front on the “to do list”?
         Dawn has much planned to beautify the park. Entrance sign included.
5.    Re-instate the maintenance of the uniforms.
          The board will look into this.
6.    With Richard not being replaced – reverse pay cut.
           There was no pay cut..just no increase.  Board will look into this.
7.    No town hall meeting for December.  There will be a special board meeting on the budget only.
OTHER ITEMS TALKED ABOUT, NOT ON THE AGENDA
 The parking problem will be completely re-visited.
Rules that cannot be enforced will probably be dropped, except speeding?
There are now 5 openings for the board.
Bi-fold walls for the hall…..opinion of the majority was NO.
Blvd 3 near Canal, eyesore home…being investigated.
Capital Improvements possible…picnic tables  on Pelican Point, new pool furniture….re-web some present pool furniture…add horseshoe pits where unused shuffleboard courts are…also add bocce ball court?
Website needs to be updated periodically. 
Note: There were two website administrators prior to this summer. Board Minutes and activity schedules, houses for sale, etc. were all up to date. The chief web administrator (Cheri) was fired by the board. The other web administrator (me) stopped updating the site from that moment on. This community needs tech savvy residents for Communications. Any volunteers out there?

PS Watch out for flying horseshoes....

WE WERE ALSO UNABLE TO ATTEND THE MEETING AND REALLY APPRECIATE DEE AND ED'S NOTES. ABOUT THE UNUSED SHUFFLEBOARD COURT I WOULD PREFER TO SEE IT USED FOR BASKETBALL HOOP, VOLLEYBALL AND TENNIS. THEY WOULD NOT HAVE TO BE REGULATION SIZE. OUR YOUNGER RESIDENTS, THE 55 TO 60 AGE GROUP ARE MUCH MORE ACTIVE THAN THEY WERE JUST TEN YEARS AGO.

Ed & Dee,thanks for printing the minutes.Now about flying horshoes-there is room in this park for this activity.It wont add a dime to property values or demand for people to move in here.I bet you there are more gunowners then horeshoe players.Lets be the first park in Florida and maybe the nation with its own indoor gun range.I bet you increase property values and increase demand for home would amaze us all.A small fee to use it and only for residents.I know it will never happen-the fight for zoning and increase insurance,etc,etc.I am for both sports as well as other sports.Just dreaming and thinking outside of the box.

Could you please make a correction. The house in question is not Canal 3. That is Ed Arszman's house. The house is on Blvd. 3 and the corner of Canal.
