Dear Members:
April brought another engaging and informative gathering for our community, and it was wonderful to see so many neighbors come together! Our April 11th meeting featured special guest speaker Cheryl Sanders, who provided valuable updates on several topics important to the Alligator Point, St. Teresa, and Bald Point residents. Highlights from her discussion included: The Barnacle parking enforcement device and its potential role in addressing ongoing parking concerns, plans surrounding the tearing down of the old fire house, updates regarding the sea wall proposal on Chip Morrison Drive, safety improvements such as rumble strips and guard rails on the curve, and the possibility of a town hall meeting, should there be strong community interest to do so.
We appreciate Commissioner Sanders taking the time to engage directly with our community and address these key concerns.
Although our scheduled guest speaker from Emergency Management was unable to attend, the meeting continued seamlessly. An overview of hurricane preparedness was provided, along with practical tips and helpful publications, to ensure our residents are ready for the upcoming hurricane season. Living along the coast, preparedness is one of our strongest tools-and it was great to see everyone's interest and participation.
Looking ahead: As we approach hurricane season and continue addressing community priorities, your involvement remains vital. Thank you to everyone who attended, asked questions, and continues to make APSTA a strong, informed, and connected community.
We look forward to seeing you on Saturday, May 9th, at 10 AM, when we will have a presentation from the Alligator Point Marina on the recent merger and what it means for our community.
Regards,
Teresa
