Chairman’s Corner Dear Boca Pointe Homeowners, We appreciate the positive response we have received so far regarding revitalizing our governing documents but there remain many who have not yet responded. Our governing documents authorize all that is involved in maintaining our roads, landscaping and the appearance of our common areas. Likewise our governing documents authorize us to provide security guards and related access control services.
If you have not yet responded, we ask that you do so as soon as possible. Remember, the burden imposed upon us applies to all Florida HOAs and Condominiums who must periodically comply with the requirements imposed by the Florida legislature. Nothing has been changed in our governing documents in connection with their revitalization. Your written consent simply is a vote to keep what we have. We appreciate your support in this important matter. Bob Cornell, President and Chairman, BPCA Chairman, Florida Statutory Organizing Committee
Director Of Security Attention Boca Pointe Resident Owners and Tenants By Ebenson Bristol To avoid any confusion at the gatehouse, please take note of the following entry procedures and resident identification requirements: RESIDENT LANE ACCESS All resident owners and tenants have the option to purchase a Tag Master device, allowing for smooth, unimpeded entry through designated “Resident Lanes” in your restricted area. Club members may also access the West restricted gates (Gates 1 and 2) using their gate devices in the “Resident Lane.” GUEST LANE IDENTIFICATION PROCEDURE If you’re entering through the “Guest Lane” and identify yourself as a Boca Pointe resident, gate officers will follow these steps: 1. You’ll be asked to present a valid picture ID. Note: Resident Access Codes alone are not sufficient. 2. Your name and address will be verified in the community database. 3. If you do not have a picture ID, you may be asked to confirm several details. 4. If the information checks out, entry will be granted. 5. If the information is incorrect or doesn’t match the system, entry will be denied, and a patrol supervisor will be called to assist.
GUEST LANE PROCESS All guests, visitors, vendors, and realtors are processed through the Guest Lane, following these steps: 1. The gate officer will request one of the following to locate the resident in our system: ○ Resident’s last and first name ○ Resident’s address ○ Resident’s phone number 2. The officer will then: ○ Check the guest list in the computer system. ○ Ask for a valid photo ID. ○ If the guest is listed, they’ll be granted access. 3. If the guest is not listed, the officer will: ○ Call the resident for authorization, if traffic conditions allow. Note: This courtesy call may be skipped if traffic is backed up. ○ If the resident confirms, the officer will grant access and record the details in the system. 4. If the resident cannot be reached, a message will be left, and entry will be denied. IN THE CASE OF DENIED ACCESS: • The guest will be respectfully informed that the resident could not be reached. • They will be asked to make a U-turn and come back around to keep the traffic moving. • Adding your guests on the list ahead of time will help the traffic move faster. • A live access control person is on site 24/7. You can always call access to add your guest on the list. • You can also add your guest on the list via gateaccess. net (If you have any questions regarding gateaccess.net, I will be more than happy to assist you.) We appreciate your cooperation in helping us maintain a secure and well-organized community at Boca Pointe.

From The Desk Of Commissioner Marci Woodward A Message from Marci Whether you’re a daily commuter or just trying to get to the beach, transportation affects us all. That’s why I’ve been closely involved in shaping the Countywide Transportation Master Plan. This plan is designed to tackle the traffic headaches we all know too well and to plan ahead for smarter, smoother travel across Palm Beach County. I recently attended the Public Kickoff Meeting at the Vista Center, and wow what a turnout! It was great to see so many residents, community leaders, municipal partners, and county staff all in one room, ready to talk about the future of getting around Palm Beach County. The project team from WSP USA, Inc. gave a detailed presentation outlining the plan’s goals, followed by a Q&A where attendees got to speak up, ask questions, and share ideas. Many residents mentioned traffic signal synchronization which was music to my ears! After the meeting, I sat down with the WSP team to share some of my top transportation priorities, especially the traffic congestion we all experience in District 4 and across the county. I emphasized the need to engage all municipalities so we’re working together as one region, not in silos. I also pushed for expanding the use of smart traffic signal technology to help ease delays and improve flow. Lastly, I stressed the importance of collaborating with the School District to improve safety and reduce traffic near schools, making commutes smoother for students, families, and nearby neighborhoods. Let’s face it—transportation doesn’t stop at a city limit sign. We’re all connected, and it’s going to take real collaboration between cities, the County, and the School District to create solutions that actually work. We all want smoother commutes, safer roads, and better connections and this plan is our roadmap to get From The Desk Of on page 4
Please Help
We are all so fortunate to live at Boca Pointe. However, there are many who are struggling to just get by. The homeless in our area have a constant need of clothing. Please consider donating any used clothing to those less fortunate. The only requirement is that the clothes are clean and placed in a bag (no loose items). All clothing collected will be donated to local homeless shelters and programs. All clothing can be dropped off at the Boca Pointe Community Association Office at 6909 SW 18th Street, suite A120. Thank you for your generosity and care for those in need.
