Our Beach is Here

It all began like this………0n September 28, 2010. And if you can access the internet, jump onto our website and see all the pictures of the beach renourishment project.
If you don’t have a computer or other access to the internet, here are a few pictures to give you an idea of the gorgeous beach being pumped on this northern end of St. Pete Beach. The pictures are in chronological order, starting September 28, and the last shot was taken on October 17. At this writing, Upham Beach is being pumped, and it is going to be awesome.

(Allow pop ups in your browser, and pass mouse over small pictures to see them enlarged)
                    
                    
  (Dark line running down the beach is the conduit for the sand being pumped from Blind Pass)
 
 

Information from Marlene Reid, for the Board of Directors:

As most of you know by now, the membership meeting scheduled for Thursday, October 21 at 7 p.m. in the Starlight Lobby has been canceled. Earlier this month we all received a packet of information regarding the proposed changes to our Master Proprietary Lease. Marlene writes:

“Upon further consultation with our attorney,
Ben Rabin, it was decided that the wording of the third proposed amendment could be reworded to be less cumbersome and far reaching, while still protecting Starlight from Timeshare Ownership. So... he first ballot you received is “null and void”, but please respond promptly to the second mailing when it reaches you. The Board continues to recommend that you vote “FOR” all three of the proposed amendments to the Master Proprietary Lease.

I apologize for the confusion, and would appreciate your cooperation.”

 


Here are some pictures of the newly blacktopped & re-striped parking lot.


  1. The two spots in front of the building are for loading and unloading only.

  1. There will be no parking under the portico at anytime, except to pick up and discharge passengers. 

  1. The spot facing the center planter will be posted for “Emergency/Mail/Parcel” vehicles only.

  • Resource Management has assigned a new manager to Starlight:
    Welcome, Ms. Diane Lavonne.

  • The seawall cap is being painted with two coats of Marine paint in a color to match the building.

  • Our snow birds are returning... we’ve seen Doug Joy (#407); Al Stucko (108); Al Schaerges (604); and Tad and Poletta Przytula (508).

November is a great month in St. Pete Beach... and these lucky people celebrate their birthdays in addition to the other major holidays this month.

 Edel Quinn – 1st;  Lynn Dopp – 3rd;
 Karen Gulia – 4th;  Jeannie Fansler – 9th;
 Mary Curcio – 15th;  Luke Dickinson – 20th;
 John Machado – 26th.
Please email me with your birthday so that we can all wish you the best on your special day!

  • This just in... a membership meeting is scheduled for Thursday, November 18 at 7:00 in the lobby to Vote on Reserve Funding for 2011, and to vote on carry-over of Surplus Funds (if any). Full info, copies of proposed 2011 budget and ballots are in the mail from Resource.


From all Starlighters to Pat Ifft,
We wish you good luck for your knee operation tomorrow so you can stroll soon on our beautiful new beach as you let us stroll today and in past weeks with your amazing pictures!
Thank you!
