Health notice for pet owners

We have just been informed of a tick disease previously unknown in the Bahamas called EHRLICHIA EWINGII. This has been diagnosed by a leading US laboratory after extensive tests. It was caught here in Sandyport as the dog had not been out of the community during the incubation period.

Current standard tests by Bahamian vets do not cover this tick disease and the animal will get a clear test when it is, in fact, infected. It is most important that any animal showing tick disease symptoms should also be tested for EHRLICHIA EWINGII if the standard tests show negative. Currently, a local vet will not think there is any need to test for this disease.

Thank you to Tim R. for bringing awareness of this matter to the community.

Introduction of rolling garbage cans

We have invested in 100 new rolling garbage cans for placement in the common areas. For easy identification they have been labelled as Association property and should not be removed from the location where they are assigned. They are not to be found on private property as they are for the benefit of the community. We expect that this should help to reduce the spread of disease by reducing the amount of household refuse that is disturbed by stray animals. Please use appropriate garbage bags for proper disposal and close the lid securely after use.

Under no circumstances should construction debris be placed in the garbage areas. If large items that are not considered normal household refuse require removal, we recommend using the junk removal service.

Board of Directors Meeting: Updates for November 2011

The Board has discussed a number of issues at a recent meeting and have agreed upon the following:

Delinquent accounts

As of January 1, 2012 a list of addresses detailing delinquent accounts will be made available to any Member of the Association upon request.

Pest control

The Association will continue to monitor the common areas for rodents and ensure that there are adequate rodent bait stations in place. Residents requiring rodent control on their private property should contact a reputable company for assistance as this service is outside the scope of the Association’s obligations.

To further enhance the health of our environment, rollout trash containers with attached lids will soon replace the existing garbage cans.

Phase V recreation area

The area will continue to be for the use of all residents and their pets. There are no plans at this time to restrict the entry of pets.

Sandyport security decals

The recently issued decals will be replaced by the issue of new decals that will bear the Sandyport logo in lieu of the name. A notice will be sent when they are available.

Dangerous dogs

Owners of dogs that are considered a threat because they demonstrate aggressive behaviour will be asked to remove them forthwith and failure to do so will result in police involvement. The policy applies irrespective of size or breed of animal.

Tambearly school drop off zone

The school gate open times are as follows (during school days only):

  • 8am – 9am
  • 11:45am – 12:30pm
  • 2:30pm – 3:30pm

At all other times the school gate is locked and unattended but may be opened upon request.

Annual General Meeting

The AGM will take place at 5pm on January 20, 2012. Confirmation of the venue will be circulated soon. We are still seeking nominees for Officers and the Board of Directors. All nominees must be current members of the Sandyport Homeowners Association in good standing and preferably reside within the development (although it is not a prerequisite). If you are interested in running for the Board or would like to nominate someone, please email details to nominees@sandyportmanagement.com.
