Unlike other states that implemented this code, the State of Florida made the code retroactive. This exposes condo owners to thousands of dollars for costs of retrofitting. In some cases it will be impossible for the owners to make the changes without major reconstruction. "We frequently make changes to building and land development codes," County Commissioner Fred Coyle said, referring to actions by local government. "But we don’t make them retroactive. If we did that the County would be in chaos." Coyle emphasized that property owners already have enough to worry about. Bill Poteet, representing the Naples Area Board of Realtors (NABOR), echoed Coyle’s concerns by citing the effects on the real estate market. "This legislation will not only cost owners a lot of money, it will drive property values down and interfere with the recovery of the market." The Resolution introduced by Coyle is supported by local condo owner Ewing Sutherland of the Community Advocacy Network (CAN) which represents thousands of condo owners throughout Florida. The proposed solution is to allow condo owners a degree of self-determination by permitting them to reject the retrofitting upon majority vote.

The company, Florida Record Retrieval, Inc. in Plantation, FL offers this service by mail, fax or internet at www.floridadeedservice.com. The Clerk wants citizens to know that they can obtain a certified copy of their property deed through the Clerk’s Recording Department for $1.00/ page plus a $2.00 charge for document certification, plus any mailing costs. During these difficult economic times, Dwight stated he “does not want the public to be taken advantage of and unless someone has a 50 page deed, it does not make good economic sense, as most deeds are just one or two pages in length.” Citizens can get a certified copy of their property deed by visiting the Clerk’s Recording Department on the 2nd Floor of the Courthouse Annex at Government Center Complex or from any full service satellite office if the deed was recorded after 1981.  You can call the Clerk’s Recording Department at (239) 252- 7242 or (239) 252-8261 or email questions to recordinghelp@collierclerk.com Also, a free non-certified copy can be obtained online by following the simple records search instructions are available at http://www.collierclerk.com/RecordsSearch/OfficialRecords For more information: Bob St. Cyr, Director, Community Outreach Clerk of the Circuit Court, Collier County (239) 252- 6879 Robert.StCyr@collierclerk.com November 2, 2009 Mon, 02 Nov 2009 12:45:05 -0700 http://www.fallingwatersdavis.com/index.php?name=News&file=article&sid=52                          New Bike rack at the Clubhouse and Gate Entry Area   A new bike rack will shortly be installed at the clubhouse with spaces for 12 bikes.

The gates were locked for this very reason and for those who broke in for their pleasure caused much damage to the gate and fence and additional repairs to the Court. This is one of our assets that U.S. Tennis has called one of the best facilities in our area. We must now call U.S. Tennis to make repairs so the Proximity Card Readers may be installed. The poles are bent and two of the support bars were separated so they must be straightened or replaced. Our best security is each other and we must be alert to protect these assets.

How does one contact the website? Can more general information and feedback links be provided? For example: what are the arrangements for using the codes at the gate.  Can these be explained and published so that they are accessible on the site? How do residents find out what is going on when they, or their committee members are not on site?
