On May 20, 2020, the Board of Directors sent a letter to all homeowners of Twin Lakes and the residents on Morninglake Drive. One major topic was in regard to all watercraft “beached” on Twin Lakes property. We asked that the owners of these boats (watercraft) to pick up new “decals” to be placed on boats (watercraft).  This would allow the Board to know the rightful owner of these watercraft. There are 1 – 20 plus watercraft beached on Twin Lakes property.  Only three (3) families responded.  Obviously, this small number of respondents is disappointing and not acceptable.  Therefore, please note the following:

 

1.  After August 13, 2020, NO watercraft will be allowed to be “stored” or beached on Twin Lakes property.

 

2.  The boats (watercraft) are unsightly and harbor snakes and other varmints that hide under the watercraft.

 

3.  The stagnant water that accumulates inside the boats attract mosquitoes.  Some may carry the “West

     Nile Virus”.

 

4.  The watercraft creates problems for our “grass maintenance crew” as they have to hand trim around the

     boats.

 

5.  A large majority of the watercraft is seldom used and it is NOT the responsibility of Twin Lakes

     homeowners to provide storage for property owned by other homeowners.

 

6.  Finally and perhaps the most important reason – persons within and outside the community will use the

     boats without permission.  This creates a liability issue for which the Board has no control.  This is not

     acceptable.

 

After August 13, 2020, all boats that have not been removed from the property will be moved. If not removed within 60 days, storage fees will begin to accumulate at $20.00 per month. Eventually, if not picked up, some of them will be sold. If you need help in getting the watercraft to your home, please advise the Board.

 

Thank you for your help and understanding.
