🚗🏡 This Week’s Edition of Tim’s Tips! 🚶‍♂️

Public Safety Manager Tim Dahl is back with another edition of Tim’s Tips, sharing a few important reminders to help keep Sun ’n Lake safe, accessible, and looking its best!

This week, Tim talks about parking throughout the District, including a reminder to avoid parking vehicles on grassy areas whenever possible and to keep sidewalks clear of parked vehicles.

🚶 Sidewalks are for pedestrians! Keeping sidewalks open helps provide a safer, more accessible path for walkers, runners, families with strollers, and neighbors enjoying the community.

Tim also discusses solicitors within the District and what residents should know if someone comes to their door offering products or services. "No Soliciting" door/window clings are available at the district office. For additional assistance with solicitors, please contact the Highlands County Sheriff's Department at (863) 402-7200

🚘 Finally, Tim shares a reminder about unregistered vehicles and vehicle tags. Vehicles should have current registration and valid tags to help ensure compliance with District and state requirements.

Take a few minutes to check out this week’s Tim’s Tips and stay informed about the reminders that help keep Sun ’n Lake safe, welcoming, and enjoyable for everyone!

Thank you to everyone who joined District staff for the Gym & Yoga Building walkthrough this past Monday!

We truly appreciate your valuable feedback and input. Your ideas will help shape the future of this exciting new amenity as we continue preparing it for the Sun ’n Lake community.

Crews are out along Sun ’n Lake Boulevard, and progress is already taking shape! 👷‍♂️🚜

This project will bring a new sidewalk to the area, helping create a safer, more walkable route for pedestrians traveling through the community. Improved pedestrian access means more opportunities for residents to walk, stay active, and move through the area with greater comfort and safety.

We’re excited to see this project moving forward and wanted to share a few behind-the-scenes photos of the work happening along the corridor.

Keep an eye out as improvements continue — we’ll be sharing more progress along the way!
