FEATURED TOPIC:
It’s amazing what we can accomplish with the Power of the Numbers! What do you want from your HOA? We want your input on what you would like to see the HOA accomplish in the coming year. Our HOA President will provide outcome from the January meeting when the members present wanted changes in the practices of Code Enforcement. Find out what happened when a core group met with Brevard County Commissioner of District 2, Bryan Lober. You spoke – and we listened and took action! Change can happen but only if you participate. Let’s decide together on next steps and an action plan.
Follow up from Code Enforcement presentation in January:
We had several representatives from Code Enforcement meet with us at our January meeting. They did a great job of explaining how complaints are handled and that every complaint received is investigated and acted upon. Their Officers are reactive, not proactive, meaning they don’t drive around looking for violations. They react to complaints as they’re received, and typically within 20 days. Most of the complaints they receive are anonymous, which is an issue our new HOA President Dee McKrow addressed with County Commissioner Bryan Lober.
Follow up from meeting with County Commissioner Bryan Lober:
HOA President Dee McKrow arranged a face to face meeting with Commissioner Lober and a few members of our HOA on March 11th. During the meeting with the Commissioner, several of our issues were addressed including the elimination of accepting anonymous code enforcement complaints; code requirements and waivers for sheds in our neighborhood; and funding for sewer pipes grants for our homeowners.
Dee McKrow will review the highlights of this meeting during our next HOA General Meeting. Commissioner Lober was very supportive and suggested strongly we attend a Citizen Oversight Committee Meeting to request the funds for sewer pipe grants. These meetings have been temporarily postponed due to COVID-19, so results from a future meeting will be shared on our website.
