Jonathan’s Landing Long Range Plan
It has been an exciting time for the Long Range Planning Committee and their undertaking for a twenty year plan that will enhance the aesthetic appeal of Jonathan’s Landing. Coutler & Hearing, the firm retained for the long range plan, has provided the Committee with exciting renditions of conceptual designs for this multi-faceted project. Plans were presented for “re-facing” the guardhouses using coquina, a natural authentic stone and focusing on an appearance that will be architecturally timeless. The initial phase of the landscaping plan proposes an “old Florida” style and runs from both the North Gate and the Central Gate and down Captain Kirle Drive, creating an impressive entrance that will lead to the Club House and our new Tennis and Fitness Center. Coutler & Hearing has chosen the Live Oak as the boulevard tree for JL as this tree will provide a beautiful canopy over the roadways of JL in the years to come and is the tree Alcoa planted along Casseekey Island Road and on the west berm. The Golf Club graciously donated several Live Oaks which were planted along the cart path near the Fitness Center on POA property. Coutler and Hearing also provided designs for our entrance signage and landscaping, village signage and ideas for improving the aesthetics of our bridges. The POA Board intends to accomplish this plan without the need for any additional funding.
UPDATE: The new entrance signage and directional signage are now finished! The Committee chose a brushed shell stone in lieu of coquina for the signs. The re-facing of the guardhouses is underway and will continue throughout the summer 2011.
FYI
To report a power outage to FPL
dial 1-800-468- 8243
or remember 1-800-4OUTAGE.
Even though you may receive a recording, this is the most efficient number to call to report a loss of power. A work order is created from the information you report and the information is dispatched to crews who are in the field. When there is an outage, your POA and Security Department make numerous phone calls to FPL to expedite the restoration of power. We have learned that all reports left on the recording are received and repairs are scheduled for those locations.
WATERWAY PARK UPDATE
The de-acceleration lane for ingress to the Waterway Park along Indiantown Road has been staked. This is the area that an easement will be granted by JL for the ingress road into Waterway Park. It is estimated that permitting will take 18 - 24 month and an additional 12 months for completion. This would bring the date to sometime in 2014 for the park to be ready for use.
