Manager’s Messages

At the April 30, 2019 Board of Directors meeting, the Board voted to adopt the proposed Park Rules and a revision to the current trash container rule, which states:

“No rubbish, trash, garbage or other waste material shall be kept or permitted on any portion of the property. Trash containers may be placed out in view for pick up no earlier than the day prior to pick up and must be removed by the morning after pick up.”

Thank you to all homeowners who submitted their constructive comments.

If you would like to see the updated Rules & Regulations, you may view them at any time on the Resident Portal at https://resident.actionlife.com.

The Board of Directors will be considering the formation of a Social Committee at the next Board meeting, which will be held on Monday, January 28, 2019. The Committee would be responsible for planning fun community events that would bring the residents together. If you are interested in serving on the Social Committee, please email the Community Manager, Rhonda Hart, at rhart@actionlife.com. The Board will review interested applicants during the Social Committee discussion at the meeting. Thank you for your interest!

We want to make room for life’s moments by providing our residents with the best tools in the industry. Action Property Management has developed an industry leading online application that allows you to access the information you need. We know you are on the move and you need tools that work on your favorite device.

Since 2012, Action Property Management has utilized the VIVO Portal as a way to make life easier for its Residents – with features such as submitting Work Orders, downloading documents, signing up for eStatements, updating contact information, and making online payments. But it’s time for a change.

Action is excited to say “goodbye” to VIVO and “hello” to the Resident Portal! The Resident Portal has taken all of the features that you loved about VIVO and improved them, as well as added some new features (more to come) and make it mobile friendly.

 What’s new?

• Works great regardless of how you are accessing it – cell phone, tablet, or computer!
• View your pending and approved architectural requests
• Quick links to external websites
• Maintain a list of pets living at your property
• View a community Pet Directory
• Download letters associated with non-compliances
• And much more…

The Resident Portal will be going live on October 16^th. Should you have any questions about the new Resident Portal or migrating your VIVO account, please contact Action Property Management at 949-450-0202.

You may have noticed the shrubs have been removed in the vacant area between 967 and 979 Heron Circle. The Board has approved a proposal from Bemus Landscape to remove the shrubs and cacti in this area and lay sod to create a “Kid’s Park.” The Board feels that the sod will make this space more usable and be a nice area for children to play. The sod is anticipated to be installed in early October.

The Association has a contract with Monarch Environmental to perform landscape consulting services. Their purpose is to assist the Association in the oversight of the landscape maintenance company to ensure they are performing per the contract and make recommendations to improve the landscape in the community. Monarch prepares monthly reports that identify areas that need to be addressed and these are available for homeowners to view on the Homeowner Portal at www.vivoportal.com. This is meant to be a useful tool for homeowners so they can see which areas the landscape consultant has identified as needing improvement and what their recommendations are for the area. If you observe an area in the community that you believe needs improvement and see that it has not been identified on a recent report, please notify Rhonda Hart at rhart@actionlife.com and she will relay this to the Board of Directors and landscape representatives. We appreciate everyone’s input in beautifying the community!

The current directory system has been malfunctioning recently and is unable to be repaired due to its age, as they do not make parts for it anymore. The Board approved a proposal to replace the system at the January 23rd board meeting. We have been advised by WC Friend that the parts for the new system are due in on February 13th, and they anticipate that they will be able to install the new system by the end of the week, weather permitting. The new system should resolve any issues that residents are having with the current system.

The directory system has been experiencing some issues recently. Residents have reported their code not working intermittently and Management has not been able to program new information. The system is the original system and is very old. Replacement parts are no longer available for it, so repairs are not possible. The Board will be reviewing proposals to replace the directory system at the January 23rd meeting.

The Board of Directors and Action Property Management wish all residents a safe and happy holiday season!

If you need to report an emergency maintenance item, please contact Action at (800) 400-2284 to be routed to an emergency on-call representative that can assist you.
