Notice of HOA Board Meeting on 09/10/2024

NOTE: HOA Board will meet at the Fruitville Library on Tues., Sept. 10, at 6:00 pm.

The next meeting of the HOA board is Tuesday, September 11, at 6:00 pm at the Fruitville Library. We apologize that this will conflict with the Presidential Debate.

We do not yet have a final agenda but the topics likely will include: updates on pavement rescheduling, street flooding, Fresh Start with a Cart, gator removals, and problems with homeowners disregarding maintenance requirements.

We also will need to make some policy decisions as they will affect our document revisions. If that does not make it in this meeting it will be held over for the December meeting. For example, should we create an Enforcement Committee to compel adherence to governing document requirements? This Committee would be adjunct to the Modifications Committee

Please contact our HOA president Nick if you have issues you would like to see put on the agenda: nstiney@gmail.com

The annual meeting will be on December 3, 2024. Please mark your calendars for this very important meeting. We will need volunteers to join the board as the terms of 3 current directors are set to expire and we will need a quorum to vote on putting new members on the board. If you have an interest in serving on the Board in the coming new year, please let a Board member know, so we can get you the necessary forms.

Thank you,
Mary Lynn
Secretary, Meadow Walk HOA

FPL Is Improving The Electric System In Our Area

FPL is working on a project in our area to improve our service in good weather and bad. This project will strengthen the main powerline serving our area and is scheduled to begin 09/01/2024, and is expected to be completed by 03/31/2925.

They will be working in the area N/O Proctor Rd., E/O 1-75, W/O Lorraine Rd., S/O Palmer Blvd. FPL will do everything possible to keep any power interruptions to a minimum while the work is in progress. Should an outage of 15 minutes or more become necessary to complete the work, FPL will notify us at least five days in advance and provide details at that time.

Dear Meadow Walk Neighbors:

The HOA board met as scheduled on June 12 and we thought you would like to be kept up to date on our discussions. Not making promises, but I will try to let you know what happens at our meetings, before the minutes are posted.

Our streets have been on the County’s agenda for repaving since before COVID. We have not been able to get some confirmation as to when this project will take place. If you would like to call the County and remind them that we would like to get closer to the top of the list, we may get some results. The number is 941-861-0967. Just leave a simple message.

We have a no solicitation sign at the entrance to MW. As many you have experienced, this has not been very effective in keeping such traffic out of our neighborhood. Your suggestions as to how we could be more effective, please send them along.

The project to develop homes on Raymond Road has not yet been given County approval. However, if it comes to the point where we want to fight this project, we will need ammunition such as experts. Keep this in mind if you know or have access to experts or have specialized knowledge.

If you are one of the original homeowners and if you have knowledge as to how our governing documents were filed at the inception of the MWHOA, can you let me know?

Please feel free to contact me at my personal email with any questions or concerns: mlendter@gmail.com.

Stay dry.

Thank you,
Mary Lynn
Secretary, Meadow Walk HOA

As you have realized by now, the HOA Board did not meet on Tuesday, June 4, as scheduled. The meeting has been postponed to this Wednesday, June 12, at 6:00 pm at the Fruitville Library.

The primary topic of discussion will be the use of our residences for short term rental purposes. Our Governing Documents do not permit short term rentals but we have learned that we may have a violator.

Our attorney has given us a draft of the rewritten governing documents. I will give an update on them.

Please contact our HOA president Nick if you have issues you would like to see put on the agenda: nstiney@gmail.com.

Assuming all goes according to plan, the next board meeting will be on September 10, at the Library at 6 pm. The annual meeting will be on December 3, 2024. Please mark your calendars for this very important meeting. We will need volunteers to join the board as the terms of 3 current directors are set to expire and we will need a quorum to vote on putting new members on the board. And optimistically, we may be ready to vote on the approval of the new docs.

Please Do Not Feed Wildlife

It has been brought to our attention that some Meadow Walk residents have been observed feeding wildlife. Here, in Florida, it is illegal to feed Manatees, Sand Hill Cranes, Raccoons, Foxes and Alligators.     
 

Pick Up After Your Dog

Remember, dogs must be kept on leashes at all times. Please abide by this rule for the safety of your dog, your neighbors, and your neighbor’s dogs. Even a friendly dog could endanger a child on a bike or scooter, and don’t forget to pick up after your dog.

Notice:

Any vehicles with commercial advertising must be stored in the garage for overnight parking. Ladders must be removed from work vehicles for overnight parking.

Our subdivision is scheduled for trash and recycling pick-up on Tuesdays. According to Waste Management and Sarasota County, no trash is to be placed curbside until 4:00 pm the day before pick-up.

Please check your post lights.

Painting Your Home?

If you are considering painting the exterior of your house any color other that the original, you must first receive approval from the Modification Committee. If you are interested in looking at the approved Meadow Walk colors please contact the Board of Directors, the Modification Committee, or see the Construction Guidelines for specific details.

Parking / Mailboxes

Please remember, there is no parking allowed on the grass anywhere in the Meadow Walk Subdivision. Although you are legally allowed to park vehicles at curbside we urge you to try and avoid parking overnight on the street for safety reasons. Please refer to the Meadow Walk By-Laws for specific details.

We’ve received a friendly request from our mail carrier asking that residents not block the mailboxes. This includes parking in front of or too close to the box.
