Worried about Hurricanes?
You
can have your home inspected by a qualified wind mitigation inspector who will identify how you can strengthen your home and
reduce hurricane damage. Best of all, the inspection is free and may save money
on your property insurance!
Here's
how it works. The State of Florida sponsors the program called My Safe Florida Home and offers free inspections of your home by qualified inspectors. The inspector will survey your home from the outside and check the roof construction in the attic, spending
probably 30 to 45 minutes at your home. You will receive a form to send to your
insurance company certifying construction measures that protect against wind damage.
This certificate will entitle you to any available discounts on your property insurance. Later you will receive another report with recommendations on how to make you home safer against the threat
of hurricanes. You have no obligation to make any changes and you cannot be penalized
for any problems.
To
be eligible, your home must be a single family detached site-built home. Most
of us in The Plantation are eligible, and several residents have already participated.
They highly recommend the program. Even the newest homes are appropriate
for inspection. The certificate is the documentation you need to get discounts,
which can be substantial. To sign up, call 1-866-262-2525.
We received over 20
excellent submissions from our talented residents,
making the choice a difficult
one. And now we have a winner of our
logo contest!

Resource Guide
Village Program
The Plantation at Leesburg
consists of 30 individual Villages ranging in size from 7 homes to 280 homes. Each Village serves a vital role in maintaining communications with their residents. Ideally, important information can be disseminated through the Villages and, equally
important, the Villages can be aware of problems that their residents may have.
Our goal is to help
the Village organizations with information and help to deal with the common challenges of the residents. In our community, many of the residents are aging, have medical problems, and are distant from family support. We want to fill this gap as much as possible.
We will all need help sometime. And many of our neighbors want to help,
if they know how.
Each Village should appoint a volunteer coordinator
and committee, as appropriate, to be aware of needs in the Village and to facilitate the necessary help. This document will outline available resources and provide phone numbers to access the resources. The Information will be maintained in a timely manner and updated online. It is arranged in categories of needs. Be aware that many
measures described here can be initiated only by the resident or family members.
