Our Association (PRPOA) and Gulf to Lakes (G/L) have been negotiating a contract concerning a large tract of land (approx. 200 acres) that G/L owns. This land is vacant and is situated along CR 486 and was once a part of Pine Ridge. An agreement in January of 2000 allowed G/L to vacate this land, if desired, and divide the land into minimum one (1) acre building lots. In return, our Association receives a yearly $ amount that compensates us for the lose of Maintenance fees on this property. A recent (2007) amendment to this agreement allowed G/L to designate part of this land for a YMCA. Even more recently (2009), G/L has been approached by the County School Board to obtain part of this land for an elementary school. Also Progress Energy wants a small chunk of this land for a small sub-station to service Pine Ridge. All of these projects would be placed along CR 486. Negotiations are continuing with G/L to protect our Pine Ridge residents in that area. When this contract is finalized, a special meeting will be held to explain the agreement before the PRPOA Board votes on it. We will keep you informed. If you have any questions, please call our Office at (352) 746-0899 Al Giannone, President Enjoy our beautiful Pine Ridge Community! ************************************************************************* |

Spring is on its way! Or is it? We certainly have had our share of cold weather and just when you think it is safe to start projects in the yard here comes the cold again! For helpful tips with your home and gardening please visit the official Pine Ridge website there you will find that I have linked the following web site UF/IFAS Extension Web Site for helpful tips to the property owners. The auditors have completed and released the 2009 audited financials. As per the February news letter we are asking that if you would like a copy to send a note by email to pineridge2@mindspring.com or contact the office at 352-746-0899. We will be happy to provide you with a copy. Contact me at any time if you have questions. You may be wondering where the annual packets/ballots are just so you know the packets for the owners abroad have been mailed and packets for the US properties are scheduled to be sent out this week. This allows the property owners over 30 days to respond and is compliant with the by laws as well as Florida State statue. We hope that you will participate by voting. Everyone’s vote is important! To view the candidates resumes click on the following link http://www.pineridgeassn.com/news.htm and scroll down to the resumes. This year you will find that receiving a ballot per each property owned will eliminate the concern that many had regarding all of your votes being counted. A special thanks to the election committee for continuing to work hard and for putting forth those recommendations and guidelines. Maintenance had a busy month in February. They have repaired failing areas of stone work on the columns at the 491 front entrance, continue to pull plants that have not survived the harsh winter conditions and are prepping the barn for a massive interior water/sandblast and paint project. March will also be busy with assessing the plant replacement issues and then we turn the corner to heat and heavy maintenance of all the common area. I applaud them for their ability to keep up with all the projects and routine work handed to them. Update to property owners on N. Calico Drive and W. Conestoga Street the proposal I submitted has been reviewed by the county commissioners with respect to temporarily closing off Calico. The county commissioners are expected to take this up on their agenda on March 23, 2010. Again please feel free to send letters of support. This area is in need of closure due to trespass traffic and heavy sand erosion on those roads. As always, it is a pleasure to serve as your property manager, I am thankful to all the residents of this community for your support. Please continue to send us comments or suggestions. For more information on what we are doing click on the following links MANAGER REPORTS or MEETING MINUTES on the official Pine Ridge Property Owner’s web site. Sincerely, Gail A. Denny, LCAM Licensed Community Association Manager Web Manager Lost and Found: If you have lost or found something, please check the site here LOST AND FOUND or email your posting requests to Pineridge2@mindspring.com .
