Cornerstone January 2025 Newsletter

Hello all,

Please see the following to review a few items outlined in the Associations January 2025 Newsletter. Please note that the full newsletter is available digitally in your Resident Portal.

POOL AREA UPDATE:

The majority of the renovations have been completed, and the pool area is scheduled to reopen on February 1, 2025. Please note that the pool will be closed again while the needed wrought iron repairs and painting are completed. Further details on the timeline for closure will be provided. The new pool lounge chairs, tables and table chairs will be installed prior to the pool area’s reopening.

COMMITTEE VOLUNTEERS

The Association continues to search for volunteers for the Architectural Committee (Design Review Committee).  If you are interested in volunteering for this committee or want to learn more, please reach out to Management via email at aburdick@actionlife.com. As a part of this Committee, you will work with other Committee Members to review Architectural Applications and make decisions in line with the requirements of the CC&Rs. This Committee does not come with a significant time commitment and architectural application reviews take place digitally.

GARAGE INSPECTIONS

For those that hold a permanent safelist for a 3rd vehicle, the Association requires the process be renewed on a recurring basis. With that said, Management will send those that currently hold a permanent safelist for a 3rd vehicle a letter with further steps to be taken in March of 2025. It is important to have the inspection conducted as we want to ensure that the information is correct for the vehicles parked in the garage and the vehicle parked outside. Specifically, you will have to resubmit your vehicle registrations and will need to complete a garage inspection.

Residents must throw their used bags into the disposal bin and not leave them in the grass area or bushes.

See Something, Say Something

We want to remind all residents that if they see suspicious activity that they immediately report it to the police department. We have recently had incidents in the community with unauthorized individuals using the community facilities. Please do not assume that someone else will call or has called the police. Below is a list of suspicious activities that should be called in to the police.

• Suspicious individuals walking in the community
• Suspicious vehicles with individuals inside of it
• Individuals using drugs in the community
• Individuals walking along the perimeter of the community (view glass or wrought iron)
• Any tent encampments in or around the community

If you feel that the threat is immediate where someone may be harmed or theft may occur, call 9-1-1.

If the suspicious activity is not an immediate threat, call the Laguna Niguel Police Department at (949) 770-6011.


Package and Mail Theft

To protect your mail and packages from theft, below are some helpful hints.

Package Theft Prevention

·         Always track your package deliveries so that you know when they are estimated to arrive at your home.

·         Make sure that someone is home to receive the delivery, or that a trusted neighbor is available to receive the package on your behalf.

·         Never leave your deliveries unattended in front of your door.

·         If they are delivering a package, make sure they leave it in front of your door and not in front of the building entrance.

·         Always require a signature when having items delivered.

Mail Theft Prevention

·         Always use a U.S. Postal collection box or deposit your mail inside your local post office.

·         Whether you have a home mailbox or use a post office box, you should always collect your mail on the day it is delivered.  Never leave it in your mailbox overnight.

·         Mail thieves look for bank statements and credit card bills, which can be used to create counterfeit checks or fake identifications.

·         Thieves also look for personal checks enclosed in utility bills or other payments.  Thieves take these stolen checks, remove the ink, and then fill out the blank check with their name and desired amount.

·         Never send cash or coins through the mail.

·         When reordering checks, have them sent to your bank.

·         When you travel, ask a trusted friend or neighbor to pick up your mail or have the post office hold your mail.
