Welcome to the newcomers who have moved into our community recently. If you have any questions
about the area in general or Tiger Point Homeowners in specific, please call our property management
firm, Etheridge Property Management (EPM) at (850)-484-2611 or e-mail them at  ketheridge@epmfl.net
. Feel free to call any of the members of the Board whose names and numbers are listed in the Board of
Directors link.

If you have a question or concerns about property issues, please attend the next monthly meeting of
the board. Meeting are held the fourth Thursday of the month at 5:00 PM at the Community Life Center.

Covenant Compliance
We live in a covenant restricted community. Some have asked..."How are the covenants enforced?"
Essentially, many years ago the community hired Etheridge Property Management (EPM) as our agent
to carry out the covenants in an impartial, unbiased, manner. They make random inspections of the
Village and send letters to those who are violating the covenants. ANY resident can call EPM (850) 484-
2611 or email them at ketheridge@epmfl.net to report a violation. EPM will check it out and, if
appropriate, send a violation letter. This is not a "perfect" process. Your board members are all
volunteers, trying to make the community better. EPM works to be impartial arbiters of the rules as
written. We are working to sustain a defined and respectable process that is fair to all. Homeowners in
violation of covenants never face a court proceeding unless they have been asked repeatedly to
make a correction, and they have decided to remain in violation of the rules. What we have is a
working, "court-tested" process, established by precedent, to keep our community above average and
help maintain the property values for all of us. Homeowners found in violation in court will be liable for
legal fees that the HOA had incurred. TPVHA has won 100% of the court cases protecting the covenants
and values of the community. In previous cases legal fees have cost the losing property owners
thousands of dollars. No one on your board wants to go to court.

Following Hurricane Ivan, the Board of Directors allowed a three year loosening of restrictions in order for
the community to recover.  Several of the homes which were badly damaged in Ivan are still in a
"construction status" and are being tracked to make sure that progress is being made. Each of these
homes has a timeline to complete their repairs. Should they stop making progress... then we'll have to
start the administrative process again.

Below are reminders of the most frequent covenant violations:
BOATS, TRAILERS, ETC.-~~ these are not allowed. If you have an RV, boat, jet ski, trailer, etc. we
recommend you store it at one of the numerous lots along the 98 corridor.

MAILBOXES: Your residence mailbox is supposed to look like the house.

OUTBUILDINGS: The basic rule is that they are not allowed.  If it is a "structure" it requires architectural
approval. It's probably not going to be approved but ask. Several years ago we had a case of a
homeowner who built a complete outbuilding in violation. Lost the cases and had to remove it. He
paid over $10,000 in court cost.

ROADS & DRAINS
The County is responsible for the conditions of the roads and the drainage in our area. There have
been numerous problems since IVAN as some of the drainage boxes have been clogged and debris
accumulated in the golf course lakes. Call Avis Whitfield, Santa Rosa County Director of Public Works at
981-7100 or email him at AvisW@co.santa-rosa.fl.us if you have a situation that needs to be addressed.
We need to keep the pressure on the county as there were other instances of high water on Ceylon,
Saber Tooth, Bengal, and the Madura's. Send an e-mail to our county commissioner, John Broxson,
CommBroxson@co.santa-rosafl.us if you have issues not being addressed.
Landscaping

Major planting was completed on the Big Island in 2007 to improve the appearance and some rough
areas have been filled. We have a new landscaping maintenance contractor for 2008, and we’re
counting on the new company to help us maintain a more attractive community.  Everyone is
reminded to not park on the island.  Part of our contract with the firm that maintains the island is to
clear the first fifteen feet of vacant lots to improve "curb appeal". That is made difficult when there is
debris left in the area. In several cases there are "new" vacant lots where once there were houses. We
need to keep the first 15 feet of those lots clear so the "right-of-way" can be maintained.
Residence landscaping~~ please work on yours.  Now that we have almost fully recovered from storm
damage, it’s time to return to good weed control and edging processes.

Security
We regularly contract with off-duty Sheriff officers to provide additional patrols through the community
and to slow down traffic on Tiger Point Boulevard and the other major stovepipes.
Speeding is a Problem
The Board of Directors, have been getting many complaints about the speeding on Tiger Point Blvd. We
want to remind our residents, that the speed limit in Tiger Point is 25mph. Please limit your speed to 25
within the residential area!

There continues to be instances of vandalism and petty theft in the community.  If you see anything
that makes you suspicious please call 911 or the Santa Rosa County Sheriff substation at 981-2270
(NOTE: This is a change of phone numbers for the Sheriff's substation)
or
Alex Goldberger at 934-5474 or email at alandsalg@aol.com

Architectural Committee
If you are making a major improvement at your property or are building on a lot then architectural
approval is required. Please call Larry Bryant at 850-916-9845 or email at lkjb@bellsouth.net for an
architectural packet. It remains the homeowner's responsibility to get approval!

GOLF COURSE MATTERS
Tiger Point Golf Course has reopened it’s newly renovated club house and our East Course is in
beautiful condition. Officials from Meadowbrook have indicated the West Course back nine will be
restores to pre Ivan conditions.

POTPOURRI
Fences: Fences between houses that do not ruin a "view" can be six feet high. Fences toward the golf
course or the water can be four feet high. Fences higher than six feet are not allowed in the village. NO
chain link fences are allowed...

Address plates: Many homes have had their addresses damaged or wiped out by hurricanes. The local
Fire Chief recently asked that all homes make sure their mailbox is marked and that there is an
identifiable address on the house from the street.

Signs: One "For Sale" sign is allowed on a lot with an additional one on the back of the property if it's on
the golf course. One modest "election" sign may be posted immediately prior to an election for matters
involving our county, state or national issues. Please take it down after elections day. Please don’t
display signs that support or oppose a controversial issue in Escambia County of the City of Pensacola.
We can't vote on those issues so give those signs to your buddies across the bridge.
