Changes around the community

For those of you who haven’t noticed, here is a list of changes that have recently occurred in the Soco Walk community, in large part to the stance its residents have taken in fighting local crime.

1. No trespassing signs have been posted at “entry” points to the complex.  I do wish they were more visible.  In any case, it’s official.  If you have no relationship with any resident of this community, and you are passing through in a belligerent or suspicious manner, you are trespassing.   If you see this occurring, pick of you phone and just inform the FPD.  They will come take care of it.

2. Lock have been installed on the electric closet doors.  If you would like a key, contact the association management.

3. Speed bumps were installed around the blind turns at the main entrance.  Beware as you turn, because you probably won’t even see the bumps, but they are big enough to make you not forget they are there.

4. New trees have been planted in place of the old dead ones.  Believe it or not, this does help in detering crime.  A well kept looking community projects an image of those who are on top of things.  If this place looked anything like what it did a few years back, you could expect that just like then, this place would be the central point for activity.

5.  I’m sure you noticed the new building are up.  Have you seen their driveways!  That’s good as it should serve to alleviate some of the parking demand if they can park in their driveways.

6. The Coffee Rail and Sweet Mango are OPEN!!!!  Just kidding.  They are still cosed.  Hey, I can wish.

7.  Apparently large propane tanks are not allowed within 10 feet of the building.  This means they can’t be on your balconies.  You can still barbeque though, you just need to use the tiny camping tanks.  Sorry folks, it is the law.  But at least they aren’t banned.  Wait, isn’t there someone suggesting to ban them?  Someone give that person the “Enemy of Fun” badge.  Not being able to barbeque sounds un-American.  (More on this subject in a future post).
