From Your Community Manager

Michael Fleshman LCAM, CMCA, AMS Community Manager mfleshman@ evergreen-LM.com 772-800-2506

Hello from your Community Manager! Below are some of the Restrictions that I want to point out to you. These can be found in your Governing Documents, Declaration for Vitalia at Tradition Residents’ Association that you all should have received at or before you closed on your home. I have also uploaded these documents to the Vitalia website. I list these because there is some confusion as to what you can and can’t do in a Deed Restricted community like Vitalia. I believe by listing these we can reduce the number of Friendly Reminders that I need to send out from my office. As always, if you have any questions, please do not hesitate reaching out to me at mfleshman@ evergreen-LM.com or by phone 772-800-2506. 13.14 Roofs and Pressure Cleaning: Roofs and/or exterior surfaces and/or pavement, including, but not limited to, walks and drives, shall be pressure cleaned as often as appropriate but in any event within thirty (30) days of notice by the ARC. 13.15 Paint: Homes shall be repainted at least once every seven (7) years or more often, as needed, but in any event within forty-five (45) days of notice by the ARC. 13.28 Pets and Animals: 13.28. 1 Four (4) commonly accepted household pets such as dogs and cats may be kept. ONLY two (2) household pets over 100 pounds are permitted. 13.28.2 Swine, goats, horses, pigs, cattle, sheep, chickens, rats, snakes, reptiles and the like, are hereby specifically prohibited. Animals, fowl and reptiles which are deemed by the Board to be obnoxious or dangerous are prohibited. The determination of what is or what may be obnoxious or dangerous shall be determined by Association in its sole discretion.

13.28.3 No animal breeding or sales of animals as a business shall be permitted in Vitalia. 13.28.4 Pets may be kept in a Home only so long as such pets do not cause and are not the source of annoyance, nuisance or disturbance to any other Owner or occupant. A determination by the Board that an animal or pet kept or harbored in a Home is a nuisance shall be conclusive and binding on all parties. No pet or animal shall be “tied out” on the exterior of the Home or in the Community Property, or left unattended in a yard or on a balcony, porch, or patio. No dog runs or enclosures shall be permitted on any Home. 13.28.5 All pets shall be walked on a leash which shall not exceed twenty (20) feet. No pet shall be permitted outside a Home except on a leash or in the fenced portion of a yard. Pets’ excrement shall immediately be picked up and placed in a recyclable bag for disposal in a proper trash receptacle by the person walking such pet. Failure to do so by any person walking the pet shall be deemed a violation of the Owner. Owners shall be fully responsible to notify guests, invitees, licensees, occupants and/or tenants of such requirement to pick up pets’ waste. When notice of removal of any pet is given by the Board, the pet shall be removed within forty-eight (48) hours of the giving of the notice. Amendment 13.28.6 Pit bulls and Rottweilers are considered a dangerous breed and prohibited by the Association and Vitalia. 13.29 Nuisances: No nuisance or any use or practice that is the source of unreasonable annoyance to others or which interferes with the peaceful possession and proper use of Vitalia is permitted. No firearms or fireworks shall be discharged within Vitalia. Nothing shall be done or kept within the Community Property or a Home which will increase the rate of insurance to be paid by Association.

This has been a very popular class; Debbie will offer it again in May so many more residents have the opportunity to enjoy this fantastic art form! The Serti technique is an easy way of painting on silk fabric. It’s actually a dye so it doesn’t alter the texture of the fabric; you will still feel the lovely softness of the silk. When it’s finished you can use it as a scarf, mount it on canvas to use as wall art, have it made into a beautiful pillow. There are so many ways to use this fabulous art form! Class size is limited to 8, so sign up quickly.

Stretch Wednesdays | 10am & 11:15am

Lengthen and strengthen your muscles, increase flexibility, reduce stress, and allow your body the time to relax and rebuild. Relieve joint pain, muscle soreness, and avoid injury. Stretching improves balance, posture and coordination, increases cardiovascular endurance, and adds strength.
