LACDD NEWS By C h r i s t i n e We l l s , LA ( LW) CDD Commu ni ty Di r e c t or Believe it or not, the first day of Fall is September 22. Even though Lake Ashton residents will not experience the traditional cooler temperatures and leaves changing colors, this does mark a time when friends traveling and visiting family and friends in other parts of the country return home. Welcome your friends and neighbors back to the community by coming out to a Sunday Funday dinner and entertainment at Ashton Tap & Grill, going to an event at the Clubhouse or HFC, or maybe play a round of golf and enjoy a lunch at the Eagle's Nest afterwards. Whatever you choose to do, Lake Ashton is full of opportunities for socializing with friends and neighbors to nurture current relationships and create new friendships. Lake Ashton's Rock the Block event is a great time to lay back and enjoy a carefree, no frills, good oldfashioned block party without the heat or possibility of rain. This event is free and all new residents of Lake Ashton are encouraged to come out and meet the neighbors! Please see page 23 for more information on this event. Oktoberfest is September 29 and what a way to bring in the month of October. There will be a live authentic German performance, food, and lots of beer! Stop by the Activities Desk to get tickets to both of these great events and start the fall off with a bang. At the August 16 Board of Supervisors meeting the budget for fiscal year 2022 was approved with minor changes. The Board also voted to increase the Operations and Maintenance assessment for Lake Wales residents to $1969 (a $94 increase). The Board of Supervisors directed staff to implement signage recommending everyone to wear masks when in the Clubhouse. This signage is now in place and it is recommended to maintain six feet social distancing to keep your neighbors safe. Hands free soap dispensers and faucets are now available in all restrooms and additional hand sanitizing dispensers have been added throughout the Clubhouse. Please see page 16 for more information on how we are working to keep Lake Ashton residents safe. A wrap up report was sent via email blast on August 19 with a summary of actions taken at this meeting. Any resident that did not receive this wrap up report can request a copy by sending an email to cwells@lakeashtoncdd.com. The next Board of Supervisors meeting is Monday, September 20 at 9:30 in the Clubhouse Ballroom.
