General Manager’s Update
Dear Landings Association Members,
As we begin gearing up for the new year, I pause to look back on some of the highlights of 2024, from refreshing our Committee Charters; to updating our Governing Documents including the Board Policy Manual, Bylaws, and work ongoing on the Architectural Guidelines; to launching CitizenServe, the new Community Development Department Portal; to the success of the Communication Committee’s Subcommittee on Courtesy in reminding us to be kind to each other and, of course, teaching us how to SkidaWave.
Focus now turns to our 22 miles of paved community paths. These multi-use paths serve walkers, joggers, cyclists, and golf cart drivers. One of the biggest complaints we have heard over the past few years is the conflict among these various user groups. That is why The Landings Association is taking two actions in 2025 – conducting a targeted community paths study to examine safety issues and best practices, much like our recent roads study, and forming a community paths task force. This task force will help review findings from the study, create educational campaigns, and work to gain acceptance of appropriate use and behaviors on these paths. If you are interested in supporting this effort, please fill out this form and select Community Paths Task Force.
Did you know that the speed limit on the community paths is 18 miles per hour? Do you know how fast your golf cart can travel? There are apps that can help determine your speed, such as Waze. To help you keep an eye on your speed, the Association also will install two digital speed signs that will display your speed on the path. This way, you can begin to learn what is considered a safe speed to travel; though please note, you still must slow down and move to the side when passing pedestrians and cyclists, as they have the right-of-way. That reminds me of former longtime Security Chief Charles Scobee, who was fond of writing, “Remember, right-of-way is something you give, not take.”
Speaking of giving, we are fortunate to have so many wonderful members in The Landings who give freely of their time and talents for the betterment of our community. In this issue of The Landings Journal, you’ll find a listing of almost 800 resident volunteers who have helped our community thrive. Thank you to all who have shared their time, talents, and expertise to make The Landings such a great place to live, work, and play!
Thank you also to those of you who have provided comments regarding updates to the Architectural Review Guidelines. For most people, their home is their largest investment…one that people care passionately about. I have watched firsthand as members of the Architectural Review Committee have considered and debated every one of the comments received, in many cases implementing the suggestions, to ensure a better final product. Work remains for the Governance Committee to review and finalize the draft for Board approval. This document caps two years of intensive review of most of your Association’s governing documents. Though these documents are a “dry” read, they ensure consistency of operations as well as best practices for our 52-years-old community.
As always, I value your feedback, and I am always happy to hear from you. Please drop me a line (karls@landings.org) if I can be of assistance.
Have a great holiday season!
