Stone Gable POA letter COMMISSION ACTION: STONE GABLE L PROPERTY OWNERS ASSOCIATION August 2, 2002 Ronald \Y/. McLemore City Manager 1126 East SR 434 Winter Springs, FL 32708 Dear Sir, On July 19, 2002 Robert Johnston met with Kip Lockuff regarding the street lights located in the Stone Gable subdivision. In the First Amendment to the Declaration of Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions for Stone Gable, it is stated, as of October 9, 1998, that the expense of our upgraded street lights are the re- sponsibility of the Stone Gable Property Owners Association. Due to the fact that the City pays for standard lighting in other developments, we request that the City cover the cost of standard lighting for our community, as well. We would then be responsible for the difference in the cost of our upgraded lighting. Your prompt attention to this matter is appreciated. Sincerely, ~ Tom Kearney President, Stone Gable POA
