AUGUST 4
Just because the big jobs of the balconies and seawall
have been completed doesn’t mean there’s a dull day
here at Cryder Point. For example, some of you
may have noticed our staff digging up small sections
of the 21/41 courtyard that was just reseeded.
What? Well, it seems that a couple of basins
that help catch water overflow were inadvertently
buried when the temporary parking
lot was installed. (It’s always something, isn’t
it?) The basins are important to help reduce
flooding, and our crew has fixed the problem.
Of course the areas have been reseeded and will
be pretty again soon. Fortunately, these are fixable
problems – and they don’t cost a whole lot
of money!
With the property looking better, the current awnings to the building
entrances look worse than ever, and we will be ordering new ones soon.
Photo renderings with the sample color choices are on order and will be
displayed in the Community Room, along with samples of the fabric, so
that shareholders can share their opinions. More info to come.
As discussed at the shareholders’ meeting in May, and subsequently
included in that meeting’s recap, we received violations from the
Department of Buildings (DOB) in the spring which included balcony
enclosures and barriers to fire escapes. Engineers have been hired and they
are surveying and documenting the current conditions, and an attorney
has been secured to address the issues with the DOB. In case you’re wondering
why you have not received an update since May, please be aware
that this is an evolving issue, and we don’t yet have enough information to
provide shareholders with an informed update. As soon as we do, we will
be calling a shareholders’ meeting to get everyone up to date.
In the meantime: One simple remedy to help mitigate part of the situation
is for everyone to keep their balconies clear of any items, no matter
how small, that can block access to the fire escapes and fire stairs. All residents
have received a notice to this effect. Be aware that property checks
are being done regularly, and violators will be subject to an administrative
charge if not rectified immediately upon notice.
On a lighter note, the Quality of Life Committee has been very active
lately, not the least of which was arranging and organizing July’s blowout
Adult Pool Party. It was a smashing success, and whether or not you
were at the party, I hope you enjoy the recap and photos in this issue. But
that’s not all! Coming up in August, the Committee has planned its second
annual kids’ pool party; in September, there will be a Cryder Point “flea
market” (sell your stuff!); and next thing you know, it’ll be October and
time for the Halloween Party. Stay tuned for details.
Thanks as always to everyone on the QOL for their ideas, effort and
enthusiasm. These are busy people who volunteer their time, and the activities
they initiate help make Cryder Point a special place to call home.
Till next time, Jill Davis
