Brookers has been in here A LOT lately; SLohA should have quite a bill to pay! And the Stop Signs are not properly placed according to DOT, are therefore unenforceable and a "suggestion". People tend to ignore "rules" that are invalid.
And oh--the gate contractor hours are now "suggestions". IT finally got the message from someone with some legal sense and civic knowledge--and admitted--that she has no authority to deny permission to enter by guest-contractors of owners.
Whoops! SLohA was fined $100 by Polk County Sheriff for a continued violation of calling 9-1-1 for non-emergency situations. SLohA had been warned before about this abuse of 9-1-1. The $100 fine was the result of Security calling 9-1-1 the morning that an owner's contractor arrived 15 minutes before "gate opening". Rather than just sign people in a few minutes early, Security deemed this a public threat and called the emergency number. Cost to owners: $100.

Just to clear up the lies and misleading information from DB at the meeting of 3-6-14. DB you lied to the audience, you did not tell people that you leaned out of your cart and blurted out an order to me "YOU BETTER STOP AT THE STOP SIGNS!" And you did continue on as you had already stopped and proceeded while following the auto ahead of you in the middle of the intersection. I was going less than 2MPH and saw absolutely no reason to come to a complete stop. Yes that's right; I said it. DB you are not any form of enforcement, not my boss and have no right to bark orders at me as I had previously stated. No Death threats were made to you by myself, you might want to have a chat with DJ @ xx xx (*Edit by Admin) about his death threat made to people of differing opinions and those that oppose the BOD for those reasons only. The comment I made was to the person that said those of us of differing opinions would be carried out on a board if necessary, I used the wrong initials and I now retract them and insert the user of the computer that made the threat on xxx xxxxx. Accept that as my apology. Once again I call you a coward, you won't man up and have a simple conversation with me, instead you are using your bully-pulpit position on the board to try and turn the attention away from yourself and your lies. What you are doing is harassment, you won't tell me what your beef is with me for some reason. You have no proof of anything that YOU think I may have done wrong. If you did you would present it, this is the very reason you won't speak with me. And that is a coward in any man's eyes. I laugh at your idiocy, I am out on the streets of SLR most of the day and I see more people of your generation rolling thru stop signs, in fact, AK had backed right out in front of oncoming traffic, without looking, and nearly was ran into. I've seen many of the board members roll thru stop signs, speeding and not yielding. Where are you then? You are not responsible for our actions, you are not behind the wheel of our vehicles, you are obsessed over us for some reason and you had better check yourself. I have plenty in my defense against your constant aggression towards my Wife and I. Please read this open comment to you at your next most convenient opportunity such as you did at todays meeting, but the smart money says you wont. Sincerely and HONESTLY J. Grnt Just a note to anyone interested, I still possess my Commercial Class A drivers license and have had a Class A CDL since its inception by the Federal Government . I am highly skilled in all types of heavy equipment operation and its transportation . I have a spotless driving history both with my private vehicles and also multi million dollars worth of State of Alaska equipment used to maintain the highest level of public safety to travelers from around the world on commercial airlines. So don't let anyone lead you to believe that I am running stop signs at 40 mph in my golf cart or car with my hair on fire and my eyes closed not caring about anyone or anything . The person doing all the talking at the meeting has the problem, I can prove what I say to anyone at any time and I stand by that . (notice I didn't have to mention that my wife can back that up like the director at the meeting?) ;+) *Editor Note: I have seen no Proof of an exact address or person where this message originated; only a computer IP address. The signal came from K C N and if supoenaed, K C N would be required to produce the address of the sender. Until there is proof of where the address came from, it is speculative and cannot be published here.)
I just wanted to mention that it is much safer rolling stop signs now that most visitors have gone away. I admit that I still look before I run the signs and do so in a safe and responsible manner.
This should give Dbag something to chew on @ KK and possibly set him off into another of his lying rants since I DO NOT respect his false and self appointed authority and do not recognize him as anybody with any control over me let alone himself.(LOL) BTW, I see people to my elder running signs too, learn from your elders I've heard. Have a nice day !

The trash guys have been picking up the recyclables on Wednesdays instead of Tuesdays and they've been doing it this way the last four weeks. Mange told everyone it would be on Tuesday w/the household trash and never bothered to say anything in her "reports" that it changed.
Another issue is the FACT that the rest rooms have been cleaned WHENEVER they are gotten to, rather than adhering to what the signs they put up say, which is that they will be cleaned between 7:30 a.m. and 9:30 a.m.
It was totally ridiculous to have put this kind of signage up when the bathrooms are NEVER cleaned at this time.
These signs are a waste of our money, oh, and they are UGLY, too.

DITTO. I roll through as well. The signs are misplaced and SLohA has refused to correct the situation but, that is only an irritant. No one pays much attention to them anymore except control freaks with urges to rage. What is taken seriously is your own and others' safety and drivers conduct themselves accordingly when approaching intersections. Road rage behavior is an expression of personality disorder-not concern for road safety.
I take nothing of value from any model I have seen of elders' behavior in SLR. Behavior is appallingly hypocritical and lacks self-control and respect for anything apart from self-interest. This is evident in every activity in this park-from lack of respect and conformance to SLohA laws and governance (falsifying public records, altering rules), disrespect and defacement of the environment (idiot signs, chopping up trees and installing radio towers) and total disdain for the safety, comfort and enjoyment of owners (failure to install safety ladders on dock, provide adequate lighting in parking lots, locking down common recreational areas)--to name a few.
The only things this crew pays homage to are money and control. They do not understand or accept that control is illusory and not based on recognized, legitimate authority. When cH allenged with a differing opinion, this frustration erupts into public rants, threats and rages in an attempt to intimidate people into submission and silence. Until that illusion is released and replaced with mutual respect and cooperation, we will surely have divide and dissension in the park.

I fell like a shitbird..people come around selling wolf tickets and now somebody cash one in and he can not collect on it.."Shit BIRD means JUST GOES AROUND AN SHITS ALL OVER NO RIME OR REASON".Just like security..LOL
I long thought that "wolf tickets" might have something to do with "crying wolf" by calling 911 again and again--for no reason--which is what our manager did; when the security employee who made the last 911 call--crying wolf once again, cost SLohA a $100 "ticket" that was "cashed in" due to his own stupidity. Perhaps he felt remorseful and therefore called himself a shit-bird.

At the meeting today DB stated "WE ARE GETTING DEATH THREATS" and then said they are giving it to the attorneys. My question is how much will it cost SLohA for the attorney to say "CALL THE COPS?" Just wanted to ask: How is this progressing for you D? Or was it just another in the pack of lies to get a round of applause from those that listen and believe without question?
A non answer says you are full of hot air.....

I have no problem running the signs after witnessing IT & BOD doing it. Give me a dirty look and I will wave back with a smile. You can thank your BOD for that.  Friday night at 7:45 pm I saw a dark purple HHR or a PT Cruiser, those soccer mom mini suv's kinda all look alike, anyway, the speed the person was going was well over 30mph on the north trail towards pink lady.
I thought there must be an emergency down by the dog run so I went to see if I could help, turns out it was one of our board members, Chrly Mnc just dumping some papers in the bin and then a few aluminum cans.
If Chrly can speed so can anyone else, maybe he can get the stop signs taken down on the main trail so he wont get so impatient with going any slower. I guess residents are exempt from the rules in the community once they become a board member.
Note to Chrly, either you live like the rest of us in here or get out. |

Is there a problem with the entrance gate? Or is this a new SOP for Commercial Vendors............. DO NOT STOP or SIGN IN,
You Have a Free Ticket To Pass Go". KCN technicians now have a free pass to get their daily work-orders from B.S. at KCN.
Brilliant !!!

It is possible that MANBOD is attempting to avoid creating a computer record of the extent of entries by contractors for KCN. Perhaps there is a fear that this documented information, which is protected by a records preservation demand, could be used against SLohA to support the breach of covenants lawsuit. KCN and MANBOD have minimized this in the past but it is not an occasional event. Ask the people who live on Grayhackle! Contractors converge daily on SLR on the morning-- breezing through an open gate. Contractors park along Grayhackle and in the Beach parking area, pick up workorders and equipment from KCN and go to work responding to service complaints, repairing equipment, troubleshooting signal problems etc.
Owners have no more "Security" in SLR because young men who do not live here have unlimited and unrestrained access to the community and Security personnel are focused on hunting and mascerating harmless snakes and armadillos. Lock everything and keep your wits around you. Owners did not have enough harassment from BOD stalking owners walking dogs? Now, owners must be aware of strangers with unrestricted access into the park. We already had damage to common property from a vehicle donutting in the storage area...who dunnit? Guests of owners? Owners? Non-Residents? Security personnel?
But, the comings and goings of KCN's contractors is a side issue; BOD has breached the Covenants by not enforcing the prohibition against commercial businesses being run out of SLR. BOD has no problem suing an owner whose covenants expired in 2012 and attempting to enforce a "size rule" at an expense of what will be tens of thousands of dollars from the pockets of SLR owners.

I am sure some residents near KCN's business, are documenting the daily activity on Grey Hackle. Maybe even the vehicle's license plate numbers. If the BODs have listened to their Attorney's advise, a move may be in the works. We will wait and see. |

From October 22, 2014 BOD Meeting: First of all, Kudos to Anonymous Environmentalist! You have been institutionalized in SLohA current affairs and history! I suppose everyone attending the meeting was supposed to know who the heck Dbag was referring to. Using "insider jargon"--insensitive at best and rude at worst! What a leader! OK enough of that. Traffic control...c'mon get real. This gets brought up periodically. There was a comprehensive look into this problem and this was detailed in the July 2011 issue of NewsHound: PG 34 >>>> NewsHound 2011 Traffic pg34Meantime, the solvable problems go unanswered--inadequate lighting in the parking lots, PVC post/chains encroaching into the easements, the ill-conceived drainage curbing, the French drains at roads edge, ill-fitting sewer covers in the middle of the road, deteriorating asphalt chunks in the recent paving job, unknown contractors having complete freedom to travel in and out of the park at all times in unmarked cars because the office is giving out passes like candy! Not to mention, Security, Maintenance and Management Staff ignoring stop signs and speeding!Why don't you guys do something useful with your time in office? This sounds like another way for MANBOD to try to get behavioral control using an expensive "outside authority" to try to command compliant behaviors which are NOT CONTROLLABLE through these means. It is simply not practical or cost-effective. Among other problems, police presence would be virtually USELESS unless there was round-the-clock monitoring. That would be prohibitively expensive. One member already mentioned the "unanticipated consequences" of having high police presence in the park, from a social point of view. How about from a potential real estate buyer's perspective? Since the logic of such a scheme defies common sense, is cost-prohibitive and has been rejected several times already, one must ask "Why" does Dbag want to badly to get police in here which would require an engineering traffic study, major road/signage modifications, SLohA insurance covering police, indemnification agreement with police, a significant increase in assessments--all to control behavior which is... uncontrollable? Said it before--the ONLY way to control speeding is to install speed bumps. I don't like it--You don't like it--but I know of no other way that makes sense except mechanical. Even then, you might have an inebriated cowboy/girl that doesn't mind blowing over the bumps just for the heck of it! What say YOU? |

May I remind the manager(s) or whoever the hell is sending out letters to residents that neither he/she, nor his staff, nor the CAP's are trained in visual speed detection. You do not have any authority in that area. Got IT?
Why don't you pay attention to and do something about the unlicensed octogenerian in the park that has seizure disorders and hit a damn electrical box a few months back? That would be a great before he runs into someone and kills them...

Yep. this blog hits me where I live. I strictly obey the 15mph speed limit (often going well under that) But, because I drive a stick shift, I generally come to a "California stop" at the intersections in the park (braking to a low enough speed to shift into first gear). If there is another car or golf cart approaching from my left or right, I come to a complete stop to see what that driver will do (defensive driving 101).
One day last winter, a guy on a bicycle was approaching the four-way stop from my left. Since he was at least 50 feet from the intersection, I did a rolling stop and continued on. As I looked in my rear-view mirror, I saw him chasing after me on his bike. I pulled over by the Community Center and got out of the car. The guy hopped off his bike and came up to me screaming that he was going to "kick my ass". As I wiped his spittle from my face, I told him to move on. He kept cH allenging me so I finally told him. "Look pal, I may have only one good arm but, if you wanna duke it out with me, you'll find out I can still handle myself" He then slapped his hip and said, "Oh yeah, well I'm carrying"
As I understand Florida law, the mere threat to use a gun constitutes aggravated assault. I got back in my car and immediately drove to the park office to report the incident. Unfortunately, since he was on a bicycle, I could only give a general description as well as the last name he shouted out at me. Staff said that there was no unit owner by that name.
Aside from the fact that some members of the Board encourage behavior like his with their penchant for "straining out the gnat and swallowing the camel", What corks me further is the many occasions I have witnessed our own maintenance crews sail through stop signs at speeds well above the limit. Perhaps. those Board members would do well to clean their own house first.

It is incredulous to think that a visitor would act in such a nasty and threatening manner and I don't believe that the office did not know, even if they had known, would do anything about it.
Management did nothing when an SLohA employee shouted anatomical obscenities at a female owner in the presence of witnesses with multiple signed complaints so why would they do anything about an "unknown entity" riding around on a bicycle threatening others with a concealed weapon? This group has no boundaries on the lengths they will go to harass and intimidate people on their "target list". And no good sense to know when to intervene in a premises liability, such as the one described by anonenvironmentalist.
The worst day in our community history; the day SLohA hired Stmbug Ixx. The beginning of decline and decay of a decent neighborhood. My position has not changed since I publicly stated, during the 2012 "Beat the Candidate" meeting, that one of the first things I would do, if elected, would be to TERMINATE this Management Company from our business. I would do the same today if I had the chance.

The purpose of the stop signs in SLR, are for speed control only. They are just a suggestion to Stop. The main S-bag Trail does not need 4 Way Stop Signs, or 3 Way Stop Signs. They were put in placed for Speed Control Only. Period !
