+ Now introducing your communty’s Observer newspaper

After a long absence, our community newsletter is back and we hope you enjoy it.

The association has entered into an agree-ment with the Palm Coast Observer to publish a com-munity newspaper, which will serve as the newslet-ter. As you can see, it is titled the Plantation Bay Observer, and this paper will be distributed via mail within our community, just as the newsletter was.

Staff from the Observer will write all of the content, publish photographs, attend meetings and perform all of the other functions that a reporter would do. The Observer is also handling all of the advertising, the printing and mailing of the newsletter.

Our focus is in providing essential news residents need to have, but also include items of interest that are fun and lighter in content. We plan on cov-ering things like special resident events here in Plantation Bay, residents involved with special causes and other items that your neighbors may find interesting.

If you would like to sug-gest ideas or topics for the next issue, Community

TThe Plantation Bay Com-munity Association Board of Directors voted five to

three in its June 30 meeting not to allow a second community-wide outdoor sale in November, with “no” votes coming from John Gamin, Russ Reinke, Don Maresca, Al Capelli and Marty Garbarino.

“It is most unfortunate that in a community that overwhelm-

ingly supported the May 17 sale, that this occurred,” said Mary Lou Bercarich, one of the event organizers. “I was sad-dened that they voted against it. There was an onslaught of people that were appalled with the decision.”

The board has previously voted to amend the commu-nity association laws to allow for a communitywide sale, that

would adhere to 11 rules set forth by the board with the un-derstanding that there would be not more than two sales a year. About 60 households par-ticipated in the May 17 sale.

The agenda item calling for a review of the May 17 sale prompted a discussion that lasted the better part of the

too many visitors? By Shanna Fortier | Community Editor

Vol. 1, No. 1

Good news for the Westlake Homeowners Association is that we have seen a sharp in-crease in the number of homes being built over the past few years, and sales have continued to improve.

With this comes new neigh-bors and friends, so please give all our new residents a warm welcome to Plantation Bay, one of the best communities in Florida.

The association this year has also made a big commit-ment on improving common grounds, most notably the landscaping. In addition to the ground cover that was installed on the corner of Bay Drive and Plantation Bay Drive, we will also be focusing on additional fertilization of existing beds and will be installing additional plantings where needed. Last, but certainly not least, is weed control throughout our beauti-ful community. Additional at-tention will also be focused on maintaining all common areas to the Plantation Bay standards we all expect.

All other areas, including en-try ways to the community and light fixtures, have been put on a maintenance schedule, along with pressure washing. If you see anything that might need additional attention, please no-tify property management.

We hope everyone is having a great summer. I look forward to seeing everyone out and about in our beautiful community.

Modifications Committee members needed

I have a business item to announce: The Plantation Bay Community Association is looking for volunteers for our Modifications Committee. Below is a brief description of what is involved with this com-mittee.

Our documents require that all changes to the appear-ance of your home and/or property require approval from the Modifications Committee prior to the work being done. This authority is granted to the Modifications Committee in section 11.02 of our CC&Rs.

Generally, all changes to the exterior of your home or property must be approved. This would include building additions or modifications, the addition of a pool, paint-ing of the home or driveway, the addition of stone work and pavers, shutters and awnings, new landscaping schemes, tree removal, fences, and any other changes in appearance of your home or lot. Changes to lots that abut the golf course require a review by the Country Club in addition to the modifi-cations committee.

The committee gener-ally meets the first Monday of each month. Its members receive information regarding applications for modification in advance of the meeting.

Committee members may need to visit a property prior to the meeting, and/or speak with residents regarding their modification in order to bet-ter understand their request. The project is evaluated with respect to our documents. The committee then meets at a noticed meeting open to resi-dents to discuss and process the requests. Residents are then notified of the disposition of their request.

Decisions cannot be made based upon personal likes and dislikes. Florida Statute 720, which governs Homeowners Associations, states the follow-ing: (Section 720.3035) “The authority of an association or any architectural, construction improvement, or other such similar committee of an asso-ciation to review and approve plans and specifications for the location, size, type, or appear-ance of any structure or other improvement on a parcel, or to enforce standards for the exter-nal appearance of any structure or improvement located on a parcel, shall be permitted only to the extent that the authority is specifically stated or reason-ably inferred as to such loca-tion, size, type, or appearance in the declaration of covenants or other published guidelines and standards authorized by the declaration of covenants.”

If this is a volunteer position you might be interested in, please submit to the manage-ment office in writing your name and contact information, and any applicable skills you may have.

PLANTATION BAY

It’s allabout You. Your Neighbors. Your Neighborhood...

SO TELL USABOUT IT!

Don and Les-lie Spillman mar-ried June 21, at the Prestwick Park ga-zebo.

“We have been best friends for six years, and we real-ized that we were soulmates,” Leslie Spillman said.

The couple move to Plantation Bay in May, to meet in the middle — Leslie moving from Orlan-do and Don moving from Jacksonville. The said the park was the perfect place for them to say their marriage vows, with the ga-zebo, the lake and the fountain.

“We wanted to get married here, where we live, because we just bought a home and are starting our lives together,” the bride said.

hour. The main concern by board members was the increase in visitors to the community on the day of the sale.

“I went to all the addresses and saw a lot of white stickers,” Garbarino said. “How many extra people came through from outside?”

Reinke, who was adamantly against the first sale and the newly proposed sale, said that he counted 17 white stickers on dashboards and noticed several examples of traffic congestion.

“I moved here because you couldn’t have garage sales,” he said. “If it builds, there is going to be traffic problems. I’m not in favor of them; we shouldn’t have to deal with them. I don’t like people from the outside coming in and going through our gate.”

Gamin said that he felt secure in saying that the sale was not adver-tised outside of the community and that there is no way to build a concre-ate barrier strong enough to keep visi-tors out of the community.

“The people that had the white stickers, we don’t know why they were here,” Gamin said. “I’ve been waiting to hear about the traffic congestions, but it doesn’t sound to me like much was violated. If people had a good time ,then so be it. I think we are over emotionalizing the white sticker.”

Director of Security Donna Velardi said there were no issues reported as far as the sale and that no one was is-sued a pass unless they were called in by a resident.

“I can’t give you an accurate count because we didn’t have any issues,” she said.

Several residents spoke for and against the sale at the meeting. Most raising concerns about the rules changing.

Resident Alby Corcoran spoke against the sale, saying that she bought in Plantation Bay because she didn’t want the standard of living that

is associated with garage sales.“I thought we would be free of things

like that,” she said. “I’m concerned how quickly things get changed. What is going to change next? It wasn’t bad, but what’s the next change?

“This is something we were really invested in is not having these type of things. Why are we catering to 3% of the population — it’s not a question but more of a statement.”

The proposal for the second sale came from Helen Siegel, saying that many snowbird have expressed in-terest in participating; however, they are not in Florida in May. Siegel also proposed amending the time of the sale from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. to the new times of 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. She also re-quested that additional signage be placed around the community to help residents find participating homes better and more advertising to resi-dents.

With the denial of the November sale, Siegel said she will seek to hold another sale in the fall of 2015.

Other board newsThe LED sign at the Old Dixie High-

way entrance to the community is slated on the agenda for the July 23 Flagler County Commission meeting.

The board voted to approve the temporary appointment of Frank Kar-ins as interim member and chairman of the Modifications Committee and Siegal as committee member. Reinke called the appointment into question in regard to the fairness to hand-pick someone to a committee without proper vetting. He was the only board member to vote against the appoint-ment. Karins and Siegal will serve on the committee until there is a line of volunteers to fill the open spots.

The board also discussed property insurance in the community and the option of increasing coverage of the guard house at the Old Dixie Highway entrance. No action was taken at this time.

As Donna Velardi walked back into the guard house at the Old Dixie Highway entrance to Plan-tation Bay, she stopped and took notice of a vehicle leaving the property. It was a resident she had chatted with before, and she took time to compliment him on his newly restored truck.

“I’m a people person,” she said. “I enjoy communicating and helping. I enjoy the residents.”

In her role as director of secu-rity for Plantation Bay, she gets to communicate with people all day long, a change from the six years she worked in property

management.With a law enforcement back-

ground, when the opening in se-curity came about in April 2013, Velardi jumped at the chance.

She said the position allows her to do some of the things she enjoys most, such as being out-side, teaching and developing staff and interacting with people on a regular basis.

“In this position you have to be a mother, a father, a psychia-trist, a mentor for employees and sometimes residents, too,” she said. “To try to put it into words, there are a lot of faces I have to wear.”

But Velardi said her main function is gate access and her staff of 20 security guards.

The staff maintains both gates, observes the community while on patrol and reports any-thing out of the ordinary. But Velardi stressed that although the security staff is there to pro-tect the residents, they are not law enforcement and for emer-gencies, including medical, fire, theft and vandalism, residents should call 911.

Velardi said it is hard to sum-marize the favorite part of her

job. From talking to people, as-sisting the gator catcher with a capture and ensuring the safety of the residents, there is never a dull moment.

“I get up every morning and look forward to coming to work,” Velardi said. “It’s nothing more peaceful than driving through the development. I get to ob-

serve everything and see a lot. There’s so much to take in here, if people would just take the time to take a deep breath and observe.”

+ Changes to CapSurePlease note there have been changes

made for your choice of visitor selection when you log into CapSure to schedule your visitors or service individuals.

The choice of contractor created some issues in CapSure. If your choice is a “contractor,” the pass will be issued for one day, unless you extend the duration of the pass. If you call your visitor in, you would need to advise the security officer you speak with that you would like the pass to be for more than one day. Previously, when “contractor” was select-ed, the duration was for 30 days. Some residents have input “serviceperson” as a contractor, and the pass issued was for 30 days, although the pass should have been for one visit. Example: A/C repair.

+ SpeedingIt is a priority to improve on our speed-

ing problem in 2014. We are working with the Sheriff’s Department to help resolve our current incidents.

The posted speed limit in Plantation Bay is to be followed by all. Our roads are governed by the state of Florida traffic laws. All residents’ and visitors’ safety is the first priority of security.

When we witness a driver disobeying a traffic law, we do make record of the model and tag of the vehicle when the infraction occurs for future incidents that may arise.

+ Observe and reportThere has been miscommunication

about security’s responsibility. Security’s job is to observe and report. We are not law enforcement, so when an emergency arises, please call 911 first and then noti-fy security. Security observes the incident and, when asked by law enforcement to assist, we assist.

There have been requests for security to monitor traffic at the entrance and exit of the U.S. 1 south gate. When the light malfunctions, please call Florida Highway Administration and/or the Department of Transportation. You can email the above with any questions you may have, as they govern U.S. 1. Security cannot help with the stop light malfunction.

+ Homes for sale/rentPlease notify security when you have

your home for sale and provide your list-ing agent and their contact information.

The information is important to have documented to allow access to your prop-erty for prospective buyers accompanied by an agent. The listing agent for the property is the only agent authorized to grant access to the property. No resident is authorized to grant access to a property they do not own. (Example: A resident who is a Realtor may not grant authoriza-tion for access for another Realtor who has not been called in by the listing agent or property owner.)

When you rent your home, you are required to notify the property manage-ment office and provide a copy of the leases for their file. This helps your tenant gain all information and rules that should be provided when moving into the com-munity. Advise your tenant to notify the property management company, who in turn notifies security.

The property management office can be reached at 437-0038.

+ Trash collectionIt is important when putting your trash

out for pickup that the trash is secured in a can.

Unsecure trash brings unwanted wild-life into the community. Raccoons, rats, vultures and bears will destroy the trash bags, which will cause trash all over the community.

The cleanup of the trash is the resi-dent’s responsibility. When notified, please react immediately.

Chick-fil-A plans move The site has been vacant since Perkins closed in May.Chick-fil-A is planning to move into the old Perkins restaurant site at the corner of Boulder Rock Drive and Palm Coast Parkway.The restaurant chain made pre-

liminary inquiries into the property in January and submitted a technical site plan last week.“Chick-fil-A has been looking at

Palm Coast for years,” Palm Coast City Manager Jim Landon said at a City Council workshop April 29. “It’s all a matter of location, location, location. And these national companies are very picky about where they’re located, and Palm Coast Parkway is still where a lot of them want to be.” In an informal poll posted on the

Palm Coast Observer website, residents ranked Chick-fil-A as their top pick for a new restaurant for the Perkins loca-tion.

Of the 934 people who voted, 46% said they’d like to see a Chick-fil-A there, 20% voted for a Chipotle Mexi-can Grill, 4% voted for Jimmy John’s Gourmet Sandwiches, 0% wanted an-other McDonalds and 30% voted for “something else.”[email protected]

Charges dropped in rape caseA plea deal likely will be withdrawn, as well.

Brian McMillan

Daniel Goggans and Frank Goggans addressed the media April 29.

Frank Goggans described the last 12 months of his life as “nine circles of hell.” For the first time since charges of kidnapping and sexual battery levied against him, his brother Daniel Goggans, and Charles Cowart relating to a March 20, 2013, incident were dropped, the Goggans brothers — along with counsel — spoke to media about the inferno.“I want to thank my family, the

people who didn’t read the paper and jump to conclusions and scorn me,” said Daniel Goggans, 28. “The people who waited for the facts to come out. Those people are decent people.”A fourth man — Kurt Benjamin

— had accepted a plea agree-ment to testify against the others.

Benjamin now has a May 7 hear-ing, during which he is expected to withdraw from the deal. One of the conditions of his deal was that if charges against the other men were dropped, his charges would be dropped as well.Ironically, according to Daniel

Goggans’ attorney, Marc Dwyer, Benjamin’s plea and subsequent deposition led to a clearer pic-ture of what happened on the night in question.“As a result of that plea, and

Mr. Benjamin being able to speak freely as we deposed him, that was a revelation that helped the new prosecutors corroborate the facts we knew from the be-

members and the notice of

termination from our long-

term property manager, the

only remaining board mem-

ber, Wes Collier, and I were

thrust into a Disney World-

like experience.

There was the initial

Space Mountain-like roller

coaster, with ups and downs,

twists and turns in the dark,

as we worked together to

reconstitute a new board.

On Nov. 18, residents were

in harmony, applauding the

new board members as they

were seated.

Our journey continued

when, on Jan. 1, the board

arrived in Frontier Land,

ready for new adventures.

We have a new landscaping

vendor, Austin Outdoor, and

we also got a new sheriff

in town, Aegis Community

Management Solutions Inc.,

who’s ready to work together

with the board and home-

owners to re-establish The

Trails as one of the best plac-

es to live in Ormond Beach.

So much for the analogies.

I can assure residents that

your board is committed to

the mission of inflating and

increasing your property

values while keeping mainte-

nance assessments as low as

possible.

How do we do this? First,

with our new property man-

agement and landscape ven-

dors, we will work to ensure

that “our house” is in order

— that our community’s club

house building and pool,

our islands, bike paths and

other commonly owned areas

are maintained in pristine

fashion. Then, in accordance

with the deed-restrictions

of our community, we will

expect and require home-

owners to do likewise.

TWO DECADES OF SWIM LESSONS

Whether it’s as “the pool

guy,” “the swim teach-

er” or “the lifesaver,”

everyone knows Carl Harrell.

Being the pool manager for

The Trails since 1987, Harrell

is known for his five-day guar-

anteed swim lessons and has

taught almost 5,000 kids. Many

of his students have grow up to

be his pool attendants. He al-

ways hires teenagers from the

neighborhood.

“I’ve been thrown up on, peed

on, and bit,” Harrell laughed re-

calling his years as a swim in-

structor and pool manager for

The Trails. “I know them all. I’ve

seen them come here as kids,

then they come work for me as

an attendant, and then they are

off. Each year I get a new batch.”

Through his instruction, he

has not only taught kids how

to float, but even how to rescue

themselves and others. “I had

a lady call me and tell me her

son, who was 3, fell off a dock at

a party,” he said. “Nobody saw

him. He swam all the way to the

shore and walked up to the pool

deck to where everybody was at

and told them he fell in. She felt

I had saved his life.”

pool to reopen april 12 By Emily Blackwood | Staff Writer

Carl Harrell reflects on memories of being The Trails’ pool manager.

Some of the busier Trails

roads will get a little TLC in the

next few weeks.

The Trails Homeowners As-

sociation Board, at its March

13 meeting, approved a $25,000

proposal with Austin Outdoor

to clean up the main islands in

the neighborhood. Austin Out-

door representative Bruno Per-

ez presented a slideshow that

went over the specific areas that

would get revamped, including

the island outside the commu-

nity building, the large island

on Main Trail and Shady Branch

Trail and the main entrance off

North Nova Road. Perez said

though this project will only

covered between 10-15 percent

of the islands in The Trails, it will

greatly reduce some driver vis-

ibility issues.

“We can’t do it all at one time,”

Perez said. “It’s one phase of a

really big plan.”

Though all members agreed

on the proposal and the goal of

Florida Laws for CyclistsSECURITY

Reminder: Trash is not to be placed out by the street prior to 6 p.m. the night before collection. Trash cans are to be removed from the curb by 6 p.m. the day of pickup.

Trimming of bushes and trees which are left for the trash company have rules which apply to the amount and size of the limbs. Property management has all the required information for the restrictions from the trash companies. You may also contact your trash company.

Residents who reside in Flagler County, contact Waste Pro and the residents who reside in Volusia County, call Republic. Landscapers who trim bushes or trees that have lawn debris during the week must take the debris with them, unless the work is completed the day prior to your scheduled debris pickup.

+ WildlifeWildlife has become a concern in the

community; feeding wildlife is against the law. Wild animals who are fed by humans become dangerous to humans and them-selves. The state of Florida forbids feed-ing of wildlife. You can be fined for this behavior.

+ CyclistsThe community has become very

active with bicycle riders, walkers and joggers. Please remember all bicycle riders and golf cart operators are required to follow all Florida traffic laws.

Should you have any need to contact security the numbers for the gates are as follows: Old Dixie Highway entrance, 437-2496; and U.S. 1 entrance, 672-5680.

— Donna Velardi, director of secu-rity for Plantation Bay

316.2065 (6) Persons riding bicycles upon a roadway may not ride more than two abreast except on paths or parts of roadways set aside for the exclusive use of bicycles. Persons riding two abreast may not impede traffic when traveling at less than the normal speed of traffic at the time and place and under the conditions then existing and shall ride within a single lane.

In Florida, the bicycle is defined as a vehicle and the bicyclist is a driver. Bicyclists have the same rights to the roadways, and must obey the same laws as the drivers of other vehicles. These laws include stopping for a stop sign and red light, riding with the flow of traffic, using lights at night, yield-ing the right-of-way when entering a roadway and yielding to pedestrians in crosswalks.

Recent law changeA key 2012 amendment in the reg-

ulations allows bicycle lights to flash.

Law highlightsA bicyclist must obey all traffic

controls and signals. A bicyclist must use a fixed, regular seat for riding. No bicycle may be used to carry more persons at one time than the number for which it is designed or equipped.

Parents and guardians must not knowingly allow a child or minor ward to violate any provisions of the law.

Every bicycle must be equipped with brakes which allow the rider to stop within 25 feet from a speed of 10 mph on dry pavement.

When riding on sidewalks or in crosswalks, a bicyclist has the same rights and duties as a pedestrian.

Bicyclists on sidewalks or cross-walks must yield and give an audible signal before passing.

sweet tooth By Shanna Fortier | Community Editor

Pantzers serve big scoops at family ice cream shopPlantation Bay residents Leon, Linda and Michael Pantzer are putting their ‘sweet teeth’ into business with their ice cream shop, Big Scoop Ice Cream, at Destination Daytona.

When Leon and Linda Pantzer and their son, Michael, set out to pick the ice cream for their family-run ice cream shop in Destination Daytona, they taste-tested ice cream at small dairies from Georgia all the way down to the Florida Keys.

They found themselves at the Ice Cream Club Inc., in Boynton Beach, to make their final selec-tions.

There were 120 flavors avail-able, and the Pantzers tasted ev-ery single one rating them yes or no. If all three tasters gave the ice cream a thumbs up, then it was a must order. From there, the list went to two “yes” votes until the list hit 50 flavors. Leon Pantzer said that not a single flavor cho-sen for the shop was liked by only one family member.

Big Scoop Ice Cream opened March 6, just in time for Bike Week.

“We didn’t know what to ex-pect,” Leon Pantzer said while sitting at a picnic table in front of the shop. A multicolored um-brella shaded the sun above the table, and motorcycles rode by

on their way to the Harley-Da-vidson shop, which is located next to the ice cream shop. “We are pleasantly surprised. We found the bikers to be a fantastic group of people.”

The Pantzers moved to Planta-tion Bay three years ago and are active in the tennis community. Linda Pantzer also serves on the CERT team.

The idea for the ice cream shop came six months ago, when they were looking for a project to do together as a family.

“We’ve never been in this type of business before, but I eat a lot of ice cream, so it fit,” Leon Pantzer said with a laugh.

It was a risk, and somewhat of a big experiment. But with a fly-by-the-seat-of-their-pants atti-tude, common sense decisions, and trial and error, the trio said the risk has been paying off.

The concept of Big Scoop was to give customers a good buy for their dollar — a nice big scoop to live up to their name.

“There’s nothing more disap-pointing than having more cone than ice cream,” Pantzer said.

Do you know what to do when an emergency hits your community? The Plan-tation Bay CERT team does.

The Community Emer-gency Response Team is trained in search and rescue, medical, disaster psychology and fire sup-pression and is the first re-sponse for the community until emergency services can arrive on scene.

CERT is a national pro-gram that was developed in the 1980s in Los Angeles as a direct response to this question: If there’s an earth-quake, could FEMA and Homeland Security handle the carnage? The answer was “no,” said Ross Hen-drix, liaison officer for the Plantation Bay CERT.

In Plantation Bay, the mission of the team is to communicate with the resi-dents on safety to mitigate injury or property damage in case of disaster. Also, CERT will be first on scene in case of a disaster to stabi-lize the situation until first responders arrive.

The Plantation Bay team is supported by Flagler County Emergency Ser-vices and funded through a FEMA grant. All the team’s training is provided by Fla-gler County.

“It’s not a fly-by-night thing,” Hendrix said. “All procedures and trainings have been developed by FEMA.”

Although Planation Bay has never been hit directly by a storm, Hendrix said that in 2004 the surge of back-to-back hurricanes in North Florida gave resi-dents a good taste of what could happen.

In the midst of hurricane season, Hendrix encour-ages all residents to think about storm season before it arrives. He stressed that the biggest resource for res-idents is the Flagler Emer-gency Services website,

flagleremergency.com, and the Code Red alert system. There is no siren system in Florida, but Code Red alerts residents by phone.

The team, which started in 2010 with just four mem-bers, has grown to 38 mem-bers with five more prepar-ing to complete training in October. All but two mem-bers of the team are retirees, and it includes former busi-ness executives, fire chiefs, nurses, Homeland Security agents and police officers. “We have the gamut,” Hen-drix said.

If interested in joining the team, contact Hendrix at 437-9592 or [email protected]. The team has training in triage, first aid and CPR.
