Dear Residents,
Thank you for the wonderful season!
Just a few reminders before you head out…
- Summer hours for Admin office: The purpose of this policy is to provide team members with the opportunity to enjoy more flexible working hours. By implementing summer hours, team members can benefit from an adjusted schedule that allows for earlier departures on Fridays, while still maintaining the necessary productivity and meeting the needs of the Organization. The summer ADMINISTRATION hours will be Monday-Thursday 8am-5:30pm and Fridays 8am-12noon. This will start June 1st and remain in effect until September 1st.
- Hurricane preparedness: Be sure to tie down or relocate any outdoor objects that could be swept away in a hurricane. We hope there is no bad weather, but it is better to be safe than sorry! Preparation before crisis: As you know storms are fickle and vary in size and category. The goal of the community is to prepare for hurricanes and storms and to minimize the possible damage to your home and to the Association common grounds. Don’t wait for an impending storm to take action.
Please see below and the attached information to help you prepare.
- Secure trash and recycling receptacles and trash enclosures to ensure that they do not become projectiles.
- Clean out gutters to ensure that there is no water back up into your homes.
- Any loose items, such as outdoor furniture, hoses, grills, plants, or lawn equipment, must be tied down or stored inside the house or garage.
- Screened patios will not protect your property, as screens can be damaged during high winds and rain.
- Tree Service: Briggs Tree Service will again be on property to trim Deer Creek common area trees in June. Briggs has again agreed to do trimming for residents at a discounted price while they are on property. Everyone who signed up in January is already on the list for June. If anyone has a new request, you should submit a form, but please contact Briggs first for details and pricing. Upon receipt of request, Briggs will provide you with an estimate prior to the start of the job for your final approval. If you do not sign up in advance, you are not eligible to have work done. Their contact information is (863) 557-9991 or email: briggstreeservice@gmail.com. **YOU MUST RE-SIGN UP EVERY YEAR!! A blast email with details will be sent to residents when the new season arrives.
If you are aware of a common area tree that needs trimming, please send me (Samantha) an email at sjewell.pmdeercreek@artemislifestyles.com to verify if need and on list. We appreciate your help.
- Call Box-Resident codes: We will be resetting the resident codes in July. Resident codes will be provided in a blast email or individually, to residents only. Your resident code is not to be given to any guest or contractor. These codes will be re-set about every six months, to ensure the safety of our community.
- Water/Utilities: A reminder from Deer Creek utilities to all property owners. If you are leaving for the summer, you may want to consider turning your water off. If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to the utility department at 863-424-2839, ext. 103 or email deercreekutilities@artemislifestyles.com
