The 4th of July is fast approaching, and the Board wanted to offer this update.  Regarding the pools, we are working with the County of Orange to reopen the pools as soon as possible.  There are certain procedures and criteria to be followed.  As soon as we are ready, we will let all the residents know.

The 4th of July is a very popular holiday to enjoy with family.  But this is a friendly reminder that BBQ’s are not allowed to be used within the community.  We take no pleasure in having to enforce this rule, but we must comply with both the California Fire Code and our fire insurance company.

Additionally, the city of Garden Grove has given notice that they will be increasing patrols to identify violators of the City’s municipal code on fireworks. Using or possessing illegal fireworks, including misusing or tampering with legal ones, carries a $1,000 fine.  For more information, please visit the city’s website at:  https://ggcity.org/news/increased-patrols-warnings-july-4-2020.

If you have any questions, please feel to reach out to our property manager, Mark Gardner.  He can be reached at 714-508-9070 x227.  Or you can contact him via email at MGardner@optimumpm.com.  

Thank you, and the Board wishes you a very safe and Happy 4th of July!

Dear Members of Lakeside-Garden Grove Homeowners Association,

The Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic has thrust our community and our personal lives into uncharted waters.  We recognize that this is an unsettling time and that some in our community may have faced significant economic impacts and/or health concerns.

As such, we are letting you know that we have been informed that there has been a reported case of residents who live in one unit within the community who have tested positive for COVID-19 and are in quarantine within their unit in our community. 

The natural response of many will be to seek further confirmation of this report, to seek to quantify the risk posed by this situation and to seek additional and specific facts about our afflicted residents (i.e. Who are they?  Where do they live? What quarantine protocols are they following? etc.).

Unfortunately, both Federal and State Law prohibits our Association from soliciting medical and treatment information from our residents and prohibits our Association from disseminating private medical information of one resident to other residents.   This may seem counter-intuitive in the context of our current pandemic situation. However, these laws are powerfully rooted in the public policy of protecting those with disabilities from discrimination (COVID-19 is considered a disability under State and Federal law).  

Consequently, the purpose of this communication is to encourage all of our residents to remain ever vigilant in fully and faithfully complying with the mandated and recommended COVID-19 mitigation measures that have been required and/or promoted by our Federal, State and Local authorities.

We will continue to provide updates as the circumstances change. 

Should you have any questions, you may contact the Association’s managing agent, Optimum Professional Property Management, Inc., Attn:  Mark Gardner at MGardner@optimumpm.com or at 714-508-9070, x227.

“Making a Difference ……TOGETHER”

Due to California’s stay-at-home order, we have all had to make adjustments in our daily lives.  The Board recognizes that we have more residents on site during the day than normal.  We also hope everyone is staying safe and continues to follow CDC guidelines on social distancing.

The good news is that many of our vendors are still able to service Lakeside as before.  Also, we are working with the County of Orange to verify when the pools can be re-opened.  We do not have any new information at this time, but will update everyone as soon as we do.  Summer is here and we want everyone to enjoy it. 

We just finished installing two benches and lighting near the large pool creating a little park area.  We actually saved thousands of dollars this way avoiding costly stream repairs.  We believe the park will add value to our community as well as save us on future water & electric bills.

Additionally, we will be adding cameras to the park and large pool area, outside the small pool, and more in the parking perimeter.  The cameras are also an essential tool for our patrol service.

Later this year, we will be scheduling the re-sealing of the parking asphalt as well as re-striping and re-numbering the carport & guest spots.  However, we are first working to repair the carport roofs, install new carport lighting, replace some of the mesh, and also repair many of the wood posts.  It’s somewhat of a process, but we are working to get this done as quickly as possible.  Making repairs as needed helps us save money in the long run.

We are hoping our next Board Meeting on Monday, June 15th will be held in person at the church versus conducting it remotely.  We will advise on that as soon as we can.  Again, we hope everyone is staying safe at this time and we look forward to seeing you all very soon.

Thank You, The Board
