You should have received your annual dues package.   If you have not received one by Monday, please contact Jerry as soon as possible at 727-785-5725.  You will all be happy to learn that our annual dues are being decreased to $2000 per year.   This is as a result of closely monitoring our expenses.

The most important item in the package at this point in time is the proxy.   We need to ensure we have a quorum as soon as possible.  Even if you are able to attend the meeting, we ask that you please submit your proxy via one of the three options below.   If you decide to attend the meeting the proxy will be returned to you at that time.  We do this to ensure that we have a quorum prior to the meeting starting.

1.      Mail in your proxy to First Choice Management in the enclosed envelope.

2.      Drop off your proxy at 10712 Beagle Run Place in the box on the front porch.

3.      Fax your proxy to First Choice to the attention of Jerry Massie at (727) 787-5725

Again, please submit your proxy today.  If we do not have a quorum, we cannot conduct the business of the Association.  This would result in considerable additional expense to the Community.

 Dear Residents:

I wanted you to be aware of a strange occurrence that happened this evening, Monday March 26, in order for you to be on the alert.

A girl about 11-13 years of age rang our bell early this evening. She was soliciting supposedly for funds for a trip to an inline speed skating competition. We chatted as her dad waited on the sidewalk.

- I asked them where they lived and they responded they lived on Emerald Links.

- I asked them the specific house number, their name and if I had their email address as they implied they were relatively new to the community.

- After they left, I checked my database to see who lived at the house number they gave. It belongs to someone I know so I knew they were lying.

- They had approached another neighbor a few doors down by the time I caught up with them to ask what was going on since their information was bogus. The dad told me he worked for Stadium Toyota and that some of his customers lived in here. Those alleged customers had suggested he approach residents in our neighborhood who might be willing to help this girl out. The father was wearing a white shirt with a Stadium Toyota logo.

- The CDD was called. They suggested I call the sheriff’s office immediately and report the incident. I also called Stadium Toyota to see if this guy was employed there. I was told he had been but was no longer there. An officer came by later and took down more information.

If you had or have a similar incident, the last name this guy gave was Peters. DO NOT give them any money and DO call the sheriff’s office.
