WEATHER RELATED INFORMATION

Please be advised that it is an owner responsibility to have the unit checked immediately following any severe storm event.  The Association does not have adequate staffing to perform an interior check for every unit which may or may not have been affected.

In accordance with the documents of Harbour Isle, it is the responsibility of the unit owners to provide someone to monitor the individual units. It also states that the owners must provide the name and contact information of these individuals or companies to the Association or Management.

In order to protect the Association from any and all liability, keys and access to units will not be permitted without prior approvals from the unit owners as stated above. Please then provide the Manager’s office with the above listed information at the earliest possible convenience, preferably via email or in writing for a record copy.  It is also recommended that if you have sustained any damage to your unit, you advise your individual homeowner’s insurance company and maintain all receipts.

 Because a number of units, particularly on the ground floor, have been affected by some sort of water intrusion, we have been conducting an ongoing investigation into the possible sources of water entry. 

It appears the majority of water is entering through the A/C intake/exhaust grills on the rear sides of the buildings.  Since each A/C unit services only one owner’s unit, maintenance and repair of these units is the individual homeowner’s responsibility.  Because a number of units appear to be affected by this possible entry point, the Association is being proactive by attempting to collect as much information as possible to ultimately find a solution.  The methodologies for repairs, cost of repairs, etc. are not a cost to be borne by the Association since every unit is NOT affected.

 NOTE:  REFER TO YOUR HOME CARE AND MAINTENANCE GUIDE, PAGE 23 OF 26 “WINDOWS” ADVISING YOU TO PLACE TOWELS AT WINDOW SILLS DURING PERIODS OF VERY HIGH WINDS AND HURRICANES. 

 Please be patient and cooperative.  Your assistance is necessary and appreciated during any event of this nature.  We are making EVERY EFFORT to help find proper solutions. 

 Thank you for your understanding,

Management

News and General Interest   

 

The roundabout is complete and looks great. We finally have an appropriate entrance to Harbour Isle! The majority of road construction on Seaway Drive is also finished, complete with royal palms, beautiful landscaping, and streetlights.

The last phase of construction in our area will be Seaway Drive and A1A from Bayshore to Gulfstream. This phase will include a new roundabout at the corner near Jetty Park. The city recently acquired additional property from the old motel that provides more room for that roundabout. Permits have been issued for this last phase and construction will probably start later in 2010. Jetty Park is also scheduled for a much-needed overhaul. Plans look really nice for this new park. Additionally, there is a "linear park" in the works. This is basically a wide walkway that will eventually stretch from the Jetty all the way up the bridge. You can see the initial phase of this walkway has already started at Jetty Park. The city has secured right-of-way along the water at certain properties, and the walkway will veer out to run along Seaway Drive for the remaining portions. Construction of the new Federal Courthouse in downtown Fort Pierce is well under way. A large number of permanent jobs will be created, and the economic impact to our area will be significant.

The city is working to get passenger railway service in downtown Fort Pierce. An application for a Fort Pierce train station has been submitted to the Federal Railway Administration. This would provide access to Amtrak service between Jacksonville and Miami, and possibly TriRail regional service to South Florida. Rail service for our area would likely have a positive economic impact and improve access to jobs.
