Bayview at Johns Lake

ATT: Johns Landing Homeowners

New Community Abutting Johns Landing

A new community Bayview at Johns Lake is in the final stages of approval by the Town of Oakland. This new non-gated community will border the Johns Landing community from Remington Road along the south side of the entrance way, down the west boundary alongside three Johns Landing custom homes to Johns Lake. The only barrier that Johns Landing has is a perimeter fence consisting of brick pillars with fencing between the pillars allowing a view of the neighboring land through the fence.

The homes in the Bayview community will consist of 20 homes of between 2,300 and 2,700 square feet that will be backing onto the Johns Landing community. Potable water will be tapped of of Largovista. Sewer will be tapped off from RaceTrac extended down along and under Remington Rd.

Johns Landing Homeowners have concerns for the future of the Johns Landing community once Bayview at Johns Lake has been developed.

  • When entering Johns Landing the first view to the right of the entrance way that visitors would have, will be the backs/backyards of six Bayview homes that will be located next to and all along the Johns Landing entrance way.
  • There will be seven Bayview homes that will be backing onto the side boundaries of the three Johns Landing custom homes with no privacy or screening.
  • Traffic both when exiting or entering Remington Rd from or to West Colonial Dr (SR-50) has become an issue since the RaceTrac was constructed. With the additional residents of Bayview on Johns Lake added to the traffic, that intersection will become far more challenging.
  • Tapping off from Largovista’s potable water would possibly decrease pressure in the service to the Largovista and other residents on that water main feed.

Johns Landing Homeowners would desire the Bayview developer to build a wall along the shared boundary with Bayview or at the very least to back-fill the existing Johns Landing fence resulting in a proper boundary wall between the two communities.

The current traffic around the Remington Rd – West Colonial Dr intersection would need to be addressed by the Town of Oakland.

The next hearing and presentation by the developer to the Town of Oakland council will be in the Oakland Community Hall on August 9th, 2022 at 7:00pm .

All Johns Landing Homeowners are requested to please attend this hearing in person if possible and voice your concerns.

Fines Committee, Gate Codes, Paving Project

May 26, 2022

IMPORTANT INFORMATION TO HOMEOWNERS OF JOHNS LANDING HOA

To All Residents:

In years past, the Board has utilized its best efforts to have homeowners comply with the covenants, restrictions and reasonable rules of Johns Landing Homeowners Association (“HOA”). Unfortunately, some homeowners simply ignore the covenants, restrictions and rules.

FINES COMMITTEE
Effective immediately, the Association will be enforcing the Declaration of Covenants, Conditions, Easements & Restrictions and the Rules & Regulations of the HOA. The Board has established a Fines Committee for the HOA. For homeowners who have not brought their property into compliance after receiving numerous violation letters the board will turn the homeowner over to the Fines committee. Homeowners who proceed with changes prior to receiving ARB approval are in violation and will automatically be handed to the Fines Committee. Homeowners in violation will receive a Notice of Hearing of the Fines Committee and are required to appear before the Fines committee at the next HOA board meeting. The Fines Committee will process fines levied by the board at $100 per day (per violation) up to $1,000 per violation. Should the homeowner fail to comply or pay the fine, the HOA will hand the homeowner over to the HOA attorney to start lien and foreclosure proceedings. Homeowners who choose to pay the fine and not bring their property into compliance will be handed directly over to the HOA attorney to start lien and foreclosure proceedings. The governing documents of the Johns Landing HOA and Section 720.305, Florida Statutes grant the HOA this authority.

GATE ACCESS
As previously notified to homeowners and residents, the gate codes are being purged from the system during June 2022. Residents should use their remotes/clickers to enter the community. Remotes can be ordered from the HOA website Gate Remote Request Form. Guests will require a 3-digit gate-dial-code to enter the community. The 3-digit code will be entered by the guest and will dial the residents linked phone number. On answering the call and validating the caller the resident will press “9” on their telephone keypad to open the gate and boom. If you have not already registered for your dial-in-code, please do so without delay Gate and Directory Entry Request Form.

PAVERS AT THE ENTRANCE AND GATE
Starting mid-July the pavers at the entrance and gate area will be replaced. This approximate 2-week project will cause disruption to the flow of vehicles entering and exiting the community. Residents are asked to please use caution when entering and exiting the community as all traffic will be flowing in and out of only one gate as work is being completed on the opposite side. Due to the congestion and traffic that flows in and out of the community during the day and to allow for a timelier completion of the project, work will take place in the evenings from 8pm to 6am. Regretfully residents in Cura Crt and particularly those who backup onto the gate and entrance area may experience overnight noise from machinery. Residents’ patience and understanding is requested for the duration of this project.
