Dunes Condo Owners Newsletter

Date: May 27, 2025 | 2025 Volume II

A Message from Your Board of Directors

Dear Dunes Condo Owners,

Can you believe Easter and Memorial Day have already zoomed by? Summer’s knocking, and The Dunes is bustling with updates! As your Board of Directors, we’re committed to keeping you informed with full transparency—and maybe a sprinkle of fun along the way. This newsletter is a tad late (life at the beach moves fast!), but we’re excited to share the latest condo news. Got ideas or suggestions? We’re all ears! Email us at Dunes32903@gmail.com.

Big shout-out to the owner who suggested a Zoom link for out-of-state owners to join our board meetings—what a fantastic idea! We’re working out the details and will share more soon. Keep those suggestions coming—we love your enthusiasm!

In this issue, we cover insurance wins, community room updates, maintenance progress, and a reminder to help our sea turtle friends. Dive in!

I. Insurance Update

Great news: our 2025 insurance premium dropped by $4,000! Yes, you read that right—our wallets are happy! Here’s how we pulled it off:

Wind Mitigation Report: Our last report was from 2014 (pre-2017 roof!), so we got a fresh one in March 2025. After submitting it to our insurer, we secured another $2,000 in savings for a total of $4,000. Check the full report at ourdunes.org (Password: DuneS1415#).

Financing Smarts:We discovered we’ve been paying hefty interest to finance our insurance policy. For 2026, we’re planning to pay 25% down and finance the rest at 0%interest to save even more. That's saving potentially a few thousand dollars.  Stay tuned for details!

Pool Gate Security: Recent reports of non-owners parking in our lot and strolling through the pool area (even as late as April!) have us on alert. Our current gate is too easy to open—even kids can reach through! New, secure gates are coming soon to keep out uninvited guests while ensuring safe exits. This upgrade will also protect our little ones from wandering into the pool area unsupervised.  Work will begin soon.

We’re focused on keeping The Dunes safe, enjoyable, and budget-friendly. View our full insurance details at ourdunes.org.

II. Community Room Access

We are thrilled to share an update on our community room reservation policy, starting June 2, 2025,—because who doesn’t love a good beachside gathering? Our goal is to make this shared space accessible to everyone while keeping things safe and secure. Here’s the scoop!

Great news: both owners and tenants (with tenant info on file) can reserve the community room for private events like birthday bashes or game nights! To keep things smooth and compliant with our insurance requirements, we need a little info about your tenants. Don’t worry—we’re not nosy about their financial arrangements! We just need:

Namesof the tenants

Car tags

Rental dates

This helps us know who’s who, ensuring only authorized folks are using our shared spaces. It’s all about keeping The Dunes safe and liability-free—our insurance folks insist, and we agree!

How to Get Started

Owners, please submit your tenant’s details to Dunes32903@gmail.com within 3 days of their move-in, per our bylaws. Already on top of this? A huge thank you for being rockstars! For everyone else, it’s a quick step to unlock the community room for your tenants’ enjoyment.

Why It Matters

This simple process protects our community while letting everyone make the most of our awesome community room. Whether it’s a sunset party or a quick beach access stroll, we want you to love this space as much as we do. Got questions or ideas to make this even easier? Drop the board a line at Dunes32903@gmail.com—We are all ears!

Key Rules (Full Details at ourdunes.org):

Hours: Monday–Friday, 9:00 a.m.–1:00 p.m. for general use (restroom, beach access, or chilling).

Keep It Clean: No sandy surprises, please! Tidy up to avoid any “cleaning fee roulette.”

Reservations: Planning a birthday bash or game night? Reserve the room for weekends, holidays (9:00 a.m.–9:00 p.m.), or weekdays after1:00 p.m. using our new web form HERE: at ourdunes.org. It’s first-come, first-served, with one guaranteed slot per owner/tenant monthly.

This is a brand-new process, so we’re open to feedback to make it even better. Email your thoughts to Dunes32903@gmail.com. Let’s make the community room a hub of good vibes!

III. Maintenance Update

Our maintenance pro is keeping The Dunes in pristine shape. Here’s the latest:

Lawn Care: Mowing happens every Friday, with Trugreen providing four weed-and-feed treatments and a shrub fertilizer boostannually.

Pest Control: Slug-A-Bug tackles bugs quarterly around the building and garage.

Hurricane Prep: We’re gearing up for hurricane season (June 1–November 30) with new shutter locks, Velcro upgrades, and secured rooftop AC units. Fingers crossed we won’t need them!

Sea Grapes: Trimmed in mid-May to tame those wild branches.

Fire Protection Backflow:Our 50-year-old system failed inspections in2024 and February 2025. We’re awaiting parts to replace it and working with the county to avoid $250/day fines. Expect completion in June.  It's literally decaying in front of us but will be replaced soon.

Elevator Door Control Panel: A custom part was fabricated at the TKE factory, and repairs are complete—smooth rides ahead!

Painting on the 2nd & 3rd floor continues.  Please reach out to our maintenance to schedule your deck inspection.

Daily TLC: Grounds, building, and pool upkeep remain top priorities.

Our focus is safety, compliance, and keeping The Dunes looking fabulous.

IV. Electronic Communication Update

VI. Turtle Time: Nesting Season Is Here!

Brevard County’s beaches are a sea turtle paradise, andnesting season (May 1–October 31) is in full swing! Help our flippered friends thrive:

Lights Out: Beachside lights confuse nesting moms and hatchlings. Dim or shield them at night—think of it as a turtle-friendly blackout!

Check out the State of Florida HurricanePreparedness Guide at ourdunes.org for tips to stay ready.

I. Insurance Update

In January 2025, the Board metwith our insurance agent to review TheDunes’ coverage. Good news: we’re fully insured! That said, a couple of items need attention to keep risks low and rates happy:

Pool Gate Security: Our current pool gate is more “welcome mat” than barrier, potentially letting outsiders slip in—asafety and liability no-no. We’re proposing new gates to block unauthorized entry while keeping exiting easy. Reports of non-owners and non-tenants splashing around have us on high alert. More details coming soon!

Wind Mitigation Report: On March 10, 2025, we completed awind mitigation inspection to snag potential insurance credits. Curious? Download the report at ourdunes.org. If your insurer asks for it, it’s there for the taking!HERE

As many of you know, the recycle bins have been removed from the trash area.  This was done because of health and safety concerns and potential issues with the Health Department.  There has been a continuous problem with some people putting regular trash, particularly food, in the recycle bins.  In addition, both the smell and maggots were becoming an issue.  As a result, the bins were removed.

Consequently, many complaints were received from owners who felt the lack of a recycling option was unacceptable.  Many people recycle, often stating they recycle twice as much as the throw away in trash. We want to do what is best for our community and environment so the RECYCLE RULES MUST BE FOLLOWED.  If you are unable to abide by the recycling rules, please do not use the recycle bins in lieu of the dumpster for your trash.

Community living presents its share of challenges and thus requires everyone to be respectful of our common property and considerate of their neighbors.  Our intent is to return the recycle bins to the trash area for use and we strongly encourage people to abide by Brevard County's recycling rules or simply do not use the bins.  If people do not abide by the rules, we will have no option except to remove them again. Although your participation is optional, everyone’s cooperation is crucial.  

After researching the County website regarding recycling, some education and further guidance is in order for everyone.  Attached to this letter is information on what can be recycled and what cannot.  This information will also be prominently posted in the recycle area.

As always, it is the unit owner’s responsibility to make sure that all visitors and renters are informed and follow the rules.  This is a very important matter to many owners, so please allow those who wish to recycle to be able to take advantage of this service on our property.  We thank you in advance for your help with this worth while endeavor.
