Aquarius Property Survey

LOGO WATERProperty Survey a Required Tool for the Aquarius 40 year Re-Certification

September 2016

This survey required by the engineering firm preparing the Aquarius 40 year Re-Certification exercise will also support the work of the General Contractor that will execute the needed repairs.

As it can be seen it is not a Boundary Survey but it includes a detailed survey of locations and elevations, columns, beams and plumbing, parking stripes, curbs, planters, walls, walks. Also the West Parking Lot will be surveyed in all its property details. In addition there will be a Coastal Construction Control Line and a Florida Department of Environmental Protection topographic and vegetation of beach front.

This is not a traditional Property Boundary but a more complex and comprehensive document.The documents presently available to the association can be seen HERE. Due their date of microfilm their  conditions are not ideal. The silver material of the film has deteriorated and the digitization effort could only provide this blurred view. The Property Survey will make available a clear and precise view of structural and topographic aspects of our Aquarius.2015-09-20-h-greene-survey-proposal

A Note from Eugenia Rosen September 24, 2016

A Note from Eugenia Rosen          September 24, 2016

 

eugeniarosenThis morning Eugenia Rosen, South Tower, asked to put in writing some of her thoughts.

She is very thankful to the Board of Directors of Aquarius that the Jewish holidays are being observed. She is especially attentive that for the Aquarius Meeting of October 4 there was a change of schedule to respect the Rosh Hashana – Jewish New Year.

She is also very pleased that the Yom Kippur  — Day of Atonement has been declared a non  working day at the building.

The idea, says Eugenia R., is that the community is diverse. Celebrating and respecting this diversity makes all living in here more aware, more congenial, more appreciative of other cultures and their traditions. At the end all live in a stronger and better community where conflict is replaced by harmony, dissent by consensus and competitiveness is replaced by collaboration.

The fact that the Board of Director is attentive and respectful of the several beliefs present in the Aquarius Association is very positive and conducive to the well-being of all.

Eugenia Rosen

Aquarius Mini Gym September 2016

LOGO LADYAquarius Mini Gym     September 2016

 

 

As many Aquarius residents are aware we are refurbishing the Gym Bathrooms. This work will provide the community with an  40 + years update. It will make the place safer, more comfortable with all vapor and dry saunas working.

Unfortunately during the construction it is not possible to keep the Gym open. It is not safe and it will delay the construction exercise. In an attempt to minimize the inconvenience a “MINI GYM” has been installed in the Alcove (between the Library and the Cascade Room).  There we have four stationary bikes, one treadmill and two inversion equipment.

The always caring Harry Smith selected the machines that have the most use and that could be transported without danger of breakage. He is studying the possibility to bring some free weights to complement this make-up, temporary mini gym.

This is what we have for neglecting maintenance for number of years. We should post it on Web and invite unit owners specially engineers to volunteer to fix the problem.
