***BUILDING PROJECTS***
Beginning in October 2023 and lasting until the end of December 2023, Beacher's Lodge is expecting to have a few more projects being completed.

1. Crescent Beach Dune Renourishment - Mid November to December 2023:
Crescent Beach will be scheduled for a dune renourishment project. While we await further details, please be aware that this project may affect our beach access. Beacher's lodge may have to shut down their beach access. We are hopeful that the boardwalk will remain open to be able to guide you past the work area. However, please understand that we will be impacted, and there might be sand trucks working in front of our property during this time. The more the information becomes available, we will be sure to pass along.
- Work for Crescent beach is set for early to mid November. We heard an estimate of around 11/9 but that date is not set.
- The work schedule will be Monday through Saturday from 6:30 am to 7pm.
- They believe the project will be quick moving and anticipate being in front of our property directly for only a couple of days. During these 2-3 days our boardwalk and access to the beach will have to remain closed for working hours (6:30 am to 7pm). They cannot provide the exact dates of this closure, so we will have to provide that information as soon as it is provided to us.
- They will be closing the beach parking lot next door to us for the duration of the time they will be working on the beach in our area and will not allow pedestrian traffic through or use of the county beach boardwalk, so this will not be an option when our beach access is closed. While they stated they would not be parking heavy equipment there, they do intend to use this area next door for staging.
- They will be adding another dune directly in front of the existing dunes and the height is approximately 13' in height. They will plant sea oats in this newly formed dune.
- The purpose of this additional dune is more sacrificial, they say there is a 20% chance each year that a storm will come and wash away this sand, but the aim is to keep it from washing away the remainder of the existing dunes behind this new sand dune.
- Because our boardwalk extends 50' past the dunes, we do not expect our beach stairs to be impacted, they will put dirt underneath the boardwalk and around the pilings.
- There will be large equipment - dump trucks and excavators. This equipment will be noisy. They will bring vibration detection equipment to make sure that the vibrations do not exceed the allowed threshold, but we may hear some noise and/or vibrations during the working hours.

2. Property Maintenance Tasks - October 23rd, 2023 to December 22nd 2023:
Beacher's Lodge will have Complete Property Services return this fall to finish a punch list of items on property. In addition to the punch list, there is a small list of change order requests that will need to be approved and could potentially fill in some of the timeline provided below. From 10/23/23 until possibly 12/22/23 there will be workers present on property Monday- Friday, 8am to 6pm. There will be no property work performed on Saturdays and Sundays, there will be no work on Thanksgiving Thursday or Friday and we hope to be completed prior to the Christmas holiday week.

In the timeline below you will see specific weeks where we will be working on repainting the yellow transition stripes at the end of each alcove. When this work was done in early spring, there were too many visitors and people stepped and tracked through this yellow paint. Beacher's Lodge is requesting that we restrict occupancy of our condo during the specified week for the floor our condo is on. There will be grinding initially to remove the existing coatings and the yellow product will be reapplied and will need adequate time to dry.

10/23 - 10/27: Initial setup and general public areas, ground level items like cracks, paint bubbles etc.
10/30 - 11/3: 4th floor Occupancy Restriction to paint alcove step up yellow paint, stucco patches on ground floor
11/06 - 11/10: 3rd floor Occupancy Restriction to paint alcove step up yellow paint , stucco patches
11/13 - 11/17: 2nd floor Occupancy Restriction to paint alcove step up yellow paint , stucco patches
11/20 - 11/22: General public areas - Public area items IE cracks, stucco etc.
11/23 - 11/24: Thanksgiving break
11/27 - ?: General public areas, done before Christmas break or sooner.
