MB Pool Closed for Repairs (AUG 21, 2022)

Attention Residents: due to an issue with the pool pump, the Mabel Bridge pool is temporarily closed until further notice. Our property manager and pool vendor are working on it and we will reopen as soon as possible. Thank you for your patience while it is repaired. Please check back here or on Facebook for updates.

We wish everyone a Happy and Safe 4th of July!

As a reminder, there’s a great view of Magic Kingdom fireworks from our soccer field. Fireworks will take place at 9:20pm July 3rd AND 4th.

Please do not bring alcohol or fireworks to the field and remember the entire pool area closes at dusk. Please do not enter the pool area after dark this weekend or at any time.

Thank you and enjoy the holiday!

To all Mabel Bridge Residents:

It has been brought to our attention that some residents have recently received violation letters regarding the placement of congratulatory yard signs on their property. For this, we would like to apologize.

We would like to you know that the Board of Directors (BOD) has no intention to discourage a proud parent or family from expressing their support for their child’s recent accomplishments, or a family seeking to support a family member who serves our great country. The intent of the rule is to prevent inappropriate content, divisive materials, advertising, solicitation, marketing, and business signage from being placed in our community. 

The rules about signs in our governing documents currently state:

“No signs, flags (other than the US flag or Florida state flag), banners, advertisements, billboards, logos, contact information, solicitation or advertising structures or materials of any kind shall be displayed and/or placed upon any Lot.”

That said, the Board of Directors has decided to grant a temporary variance to allow for the reasonable placement of a celebratory or congratulatory signs until Labor Day (September 5, 2022).

This variance is being issued for a fixed amount of time so the board can use this time to seek assistance from the HOA’s legal counsel on how best to codify this type of rule change/clarification. Although it sounds like a simple change, the HOA and our associated documents are ruled by Florida statutes, so changes must be handled with the proper processes and due diligence.

Again, to those who have received a violation notice due to one of these celebratory or congratulatory signs, the BOD extends our apologies. The community’s property manager was simply following the rules contained in our documents to the letter. This is her job, and she does not have the authority to deviate from the rules as defined per those documents. We, as a Board, will be discussing this category of violation at an upcoming meeting as well as how we may be able to address similar issues in the future. 

Please understand, the BOD are volunteers who care a lot about this community and each resident in it. Our intention is to make this a community where each resident is proud to be a member. Although, we cannot easily make permanent changes to the established Governing Document that we inherited from the homebuilder and we are obliged to enforce them as they are, we are always open to hearing suggestions on how to make the community better for everyone in it. If you have a concern about how things are being handled, please send a message to the Board via our community manager.

For those of you who would like to get more involved, please reach out to our manager to express your interest. We welcome those who wish to make Mabel Bridge a better community! 

Thank you for your understanding in this complicated situation.

Mabel Bridge Board of Directors

Andy, Rick & Jim

March 11, 2022

After months of effort from the Landscaping Committee and Board of Directors, a new landscape service provider has been selected for Mabel Bridge. Our volunteers worked diligently to create a detailed set of requirements from which to solicit bids for service. After reviewing the bids received and meeting with several companies, contract details were refined and a signed agreement was established with Cherrylake, Inc.

The Board President and Landscape Committee member walked the property with Cherrylake management again this week and they have formulated a plan to restore the health and beauty of our community landscaping.

Crews are already on site as of March 11, 2022, and have begun working on cleanup and improvements. We are optimistic that our new relationship with Cherrylake will prove to be successful, and we look forward to seeing improvements in appearance in Mabel Bridge.

Located in Central Florida, Cherrylake is the third largest wholesale nursery in America and a leader in landscape construction, irrigation & maintenance. To learn more about Cherrylake, residents can visit their website and Facebook page.

If you have questions or concerns about landscaping on common HOA property, please contact our Community Association Manager.

Attn Residents: Please be aware that HOA common area pressure washing will be performed starting Monday Oct. 4th and finishing Wednesday Oct. 13th (weather permitting).

UPDATE: The pool is repaired and open for use as of 9/24/2021.

Attention residents: The pool is closed due to a power outage on the pool equipment. A repair person has been scheduled to come out and investigate the cause. We will restore operations as soon as possible. Please check back here for updates. Thank you for your patience while the needed repairs are made.
