Homeowners/Residents of Four Seasons Condominium of Winter Park, See below Important Information from Sentry Management regarding email change:
As most of you are aware, there has been a huge increase in cyber-attacks and cyber-crime across the United States. Criminals are actively looking for personal information and bank account information. As a part of our Promises, Sentry is committed to providing Simplified Technology Solutions. While being simple is important, being safe is critical. To that end Sentry Management has expended tremendous resources to keep association information safe.
For many years, a huge focus on security has been put on the “sentrymgt.com” domain. There are also other domains that are potential targets for cyber-crime including the “@csbonline” domain. The decision has been made to put all of our resources into protecting the “sentrymgt.com” domain, and the “@csbonline” domain will be retired in 60-90 days. As such, your manager has begun the process of transitioning fourseasons@csbonline.com over to a new email address, that will offer protection from cyber-crime provided by Sentry Management. That address will be prowe@sentrymgt.com.
Please note that the old address will continue to operate until April 30, 2024.
We thank you for your understanding, and trust that you agree in this day and age, how important it is to secure private data and to deter criminal actions.
For more information regarding the Neighborhood Watch please email fourseasonsneighborhoodwatch@gmail.com. * The Neighborhhood Watch is not administered by Sentry Management or the Board of Directors. The Board appreciates and supports community involvement.
If you are installing cameras outside of your unit please make sure that they are not on the Association property such as walls, brick, shutters etc. All cameras located outside MUST be on your door/door frame ONLY. If you have placed on any of the Association property you will need to relocate it ASAP.
We continue to have an issue with furniture, large items, appliances, construction debris being put in our dumpsters. The dumpsters are for regular household garbage ONLY. This is causing an overflow on all dumpsters, rodents and extra costs to the Association for removal. Please report any individuals in voilation of this to the office.
As a reminder, DO NOT leave any food or water out for pets/strays. Please do not leave any trash outside your unit as this could attract unwanted vermin.
Management Hours: 7-3 on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday & 9-5 Wednesday. Please be aware that the above hours do NOT necessarily reflect the Manager’s Office Hours as Patty is required to meet with vendors, maintenance, and residents on the property, pick up supplies, attend mandatory meetings, etc. on and off site. As a property manager’s schedule is determined by the needs of the community on any given day, a set office schedule as well as lunch breaks, etc. are variable. Four Seasons residents who need to address community concerns or questions are welcome to stop by the office and knock on the door during Management Hours. If Patty is not in the office or unavailable to speak to you at that time (as indicated on the information board outside the door), please call and leave a message or send an email stating your business or requesting an in-person meeting. If it is an emergency, please dial the after-hours number and the answering service will notify Patty immediately.
Rules & Regulations:
We ask that all homeowner/residents read the Rules & Regulations for Four Seasons. We have had numerous complaints that residents are not following them. If you are renting out your unit it is your responsibility that your tenants get a copy of the Rules & Regulations.
All communication regarding matters at the Four Seasons need to be reported to the office and should not be reported by calling maintenance.
Storm Water Billing Change:
The City of Winter Park sent out a notice that they will be changing the way they bill for storm water usage. Currently it has been included in the water bills which is paid with your HOA assessments. Now they will be billing in your yearly taxes. This change is effecting all Winter Park residents.
Michael Cleary submitted some questions see below attachment response from the City of Winter Park:
CITY OF WINTER PARK CHANGE STORM WATER FEES FROM UTILITY BILLS TO YOUR PROPERTY TAX
Recycling:
It has been asked of the Board’s why we don’t have recycling at the Four Seasons. Years ago we did and people would put non-recyclable items in the bins and then Waste Pro would not pick it up. For awhile The City of Winter Park had drop off sites for recycle but they have stopped that. Other countries used to purchase the US recycles but now they no longer do, so now must recycles just wind up in the county landfills.
Safety:
The Winter Park Police Department is offering a S.A.F.E (an acronym for Self-Defense Awareness & Familiarization Exchange) two hour free program for women providing educational awareness, crime-victim prevention designed by the National Self-Defense Institute. Any female 14 and older who is interested in attending can sign up on the website WPPD.org. On the main page it is listed on the bottom right-hand side under “feature programs”. See the links below.
Attached below is some information handed out at our Neighborhood Watch Annual Meeting by Officer Rodriguez talking about tech and phone scams and how you can protect yourself. More information can be found on the Winter Park Police site WPPD.org.
ASSESSMENT PAYMENTS:
Sentry Management has changed how to process the payments. In response to homeowner feedback making payments should be simple and all payment methods should be made on one website. Sentry Management is not a bank or credit card processing company, they have switched to Clickpay who is an industry-leading single-source payment processor. Homeowners will no longer have to go to multiple payment website to choose which method of payment they want to use to pay their assessment. Go to www.mysentrypay.com or www.clickpay.com to select your method of payment or call 800-533-7901.
