Avida Was Alerted

A letter to AVIDA was sent by the Association so as to alert its Management on the present security situation within the Laguna Blvd. In the reported incident that happened on Aug. 27, 2006 where one of our residents was the victims of the robbery/hold-up. The Board cited the tall cogon and grass that have remained uncut that shielded the robbers from the eyes of the passers-by and the absence of enough illumination in the area where the robbery happened are contributory factors to this incident.

It was emphasized that the four lamp posts installed along the access leading road to SJV III, which were even done upon the initiative and persistent effort of the SJV III Board of Directors, are inadequate. These lampposts were installed 2004 by AVIDA (formerly LPHI) while its electricity is tapped to the Guard house’s electric meter which the Association pays for it.

One Side Parking Permanently Adopted

The one-side parking scheme is now on its fourth month of implementation. Bulusan was the initial test area followed by Apo and Mari- veles Sts. The residents in general are receptive to this campaign. Some points, though, need to be improved in the implementation process.

The SJV III Board of Directors has decided to continue the implementation and adopt this system in other areas as the need arises. As of this time, the inventory of vehicles are more than the total number of parking slots of all occupied units. As the occupancy rate increases, the Board is looking into eventually regulating the number of vehicles that each unit will be allowed to park along the roads. Other areas lined-up for the implementation of the one-side parking are Sierra Madre in October, Cordillera in November and Taal in December
