LANDSCAPE SCHEDULE

We had another successful year as we completed the updates at the guard house as well as: 

1. Upgrading software
2. Repairing major irrigation breaks in the front entrance
3. Cleaning of the storm drains
4. Completion of the annual tree trimming
5. Pressure cleaning of the community 
6. Scheduled road repair
7. Successfully completed another Financial Audit with our independent public accountant, with no noted deficiencies again – thank you RMC!

We are also on the final phase of replacing our interior lighting with LEDs partnered with Florida Power and Light, all managed within budget.

We have made a lot of progress with the City of Parkland to move forward with ongoing maintenance at Terramar Park, as well as addressing the parking situation on Hillsboro Boulevard ,as we partnered up with City Commissioner Bob Mayersohn and the Broward Sheriff's Office.

I’d like to take this opportunity to thank not only my fellow Board members Kevin, Dominic, Barry, and Chuck,  for their service to our Whittier Oak’s community. Furthermore, I'd also like to give my sincere gratitude to the following individuals for all their efforts & dedication:

• Our management company, Residential Management Concepts, Marie Palombi, Kerri Brooks, Sarah Rose, and staff
• Our ARB Committee members: David Ofstein, Jeremy Nobil, and Matthew Klein

• Doggy Stations: As I’m sure many of you are aware, the doggy station garbage bins become full rapidly due to owners throwing personal trash such as beer bottles, pizza boxes, etc. To prevent this from occurring, the Board is currently looking at solutions for this problem. Until such time that the Board is able to make any changes, we encourage all homeowners to use the doggy waste station trash bins for their dog waste only. 
• Front Entrance:   The maintenance to the front entrance is progressing. The gates and the posts have all been painted. New landscaping has been installed in the median as well as seasonal flowers and mulching done. The columns will be refurbished as soon as the weather permits and the electrician has been working on the necessary repairs. The rest of the project is progressing, and we will be sending out additional informative emails.   
• Parking: The alternate side of the street is being enforced on a regular basis and vehicles in violation will be stickered with repeat offenders being towed at the owner's expense. 
• Speeding: It has been noticed that there are numerous vehicles speeding throughout the neighborhood. The speed limit in Whittier Oaks is 15 miles per hour. 
• Irrigation: All owners are encouraged to monitor their lawns and to make sure their irrigation system is running properly. If the lawn looks dry, is browning or dying, please contact your irrigation contractor or RMC so that it can be checked to see if repairs are needed.
• Violations: Property inspections are done on a regular basis. Please take pride in the exterior appearance of your home and maintain it as needed. 
• Maintenance Payments:  Kindly remember that the Whittier Oaks quarterly maintenance fees are due on the first of that quarter and considered late after the 10th. At the end of that month Barcodes will be deactivated and any account that is delinquent over 90 days will automatically be sent to the Association’s legal counsel.
