April 2018 Newsletter
On March 12 at the Organizational meeting, the following officers were elected:
President Larry Wynberg
Vice President John Schreiber
Secretary Pearl Prevoir
Treasurer Linda Fentner
Director David Ferris
Director Kim Hanson
As you can see the Board is one position short. The Board really needs the seventh member. If you have engineering, building, or scientific background, the Board would like to hear from you. Our new President has already expressed his desire to maximize owner participation in Board and committee activities. If you have expertise in building, electrical, plumbing, or engineering please consider volunteering for the Budgeting committee, or other of the committees to be established. Being on the Board or a committee will, among other things provide you with up to date information on the status and workings of your association.
Many insurance policies cover all or partial reimbursement for Association Special Assessments. The policy language may not make such coverage readily apparent by using terms specific to the industry. THEREFORE, if you think an item in your policy addresses this issue, call your insurance company representative and ask the question directly. Also ask what documentation might be needed to substantiate your claim
SPECIAL ASSESSMENTS: All Special Assessments must be paid by April 16, 2018. The total of $300 per unit is due without exception. Send your payment to Myerlee Circle Condominium Assn., 6945 Dog Leg Way, Fort Myers, FL. 33919. ATTN: Linda Fentner.
