Sabal Point Homeowners,
I hope this announcement finds you healthy. I feel like I’m obligated to start every conversation and message with: “2020, what a strange year.” It may be cliche at this point, but it is also true. This is the first of what I hope will be a monthly update from your homeowners’ association.
First, the HOA has finally secured a new domain name of www.sabalwoods.com. We will be moving away from www.mysabalwoods.com (we have dropped the “my”). We had to make this change because mysabalwoods.com was not owned by the HOA, but instead was owned by a former board member who moved away from the neighborhood years ago. We were able to track her down, but she no longer has access to the email address associated with the website. Accordingly, we were not able to get ownership of mysabalwoods transferred to the HOA. Now that we actually own the website, we plan on using it to provide monthly updates to the community.
You may have seen that we recently put up signs reminding anyone driving through our neighborhood to take notice of their speed while driving. I wanted to take this time to remind you that the speed limit in the neighborhood is 20 mph. One morning in June, we had a single car accident on West Hornbeam that resulted in a car rolling over and hitting a tree. Please remember that we have many young children in the neighborhood and we have some winding streets with limited visibility as well. When driving through our streets, just remember, “what’s your hurry?” Ultimately, we are all driving through the neighborhood just to get stopped forever making a left at the light near the elementary school.
Finally, I wanted to provide an update on our annual meeting. Typically, the annual meeting is held in June. Obviously, we weren’t able to hold it in June this year due to the Covid pandemic. Unlike our monthly meetings that we can hold virtually online, our annual meeting must be held in person. As new infection rates have started to slow, we are hoping to have the annual meeting in one of our public spaces outdoors to allow for adequate social distancing. In the meantime, if you have an interest in immediately joining the Board (we have a vacancy) or have any questions, please feel free to reach out to the Board at Boardmembers@sabalwoods.com
Thanks for reading and stay healthy.
