SAFER, EASIER BUS ON THE ROAD

Upgraded step makes riding easier

______________

Have you seen the bus?

It's the one with the signs announcing Master Management is making your ride safer. A new CVE bus is on the roads and it features something that residents are raving about: a lower, easier step and additional handle bars.

In response to rider requests, Master Management has upgraded one of the buses to feature an automatic, extendable, and lighted step that makes getting on and off easier for riders. In addition, more safety handle bars have been added to ensure rider stability.

Why only one bus with the step, you ask?

Excellent question!

The new step is in a test period. If residents love it (and so far they have), it will be installed on the entire fleet.

A BRIGHTER FUTURE COMING TO THE EAST ENTRANCE

If you've tried to enter the East Gate after dark, you no doubt have noticed that the lighting right along Military Trail isn't the best. Now. that area is about to receive a major upgrade.

Two new light poles are planned at the East Gate entrance off Military Trail.

Master Management has been asking FPL to install additional poles at the end of the drive to improve visibility. The INSIDER has learned that FPL is finally getting around to it. The new poles are expected to be installed by mid-October.

The cost of the new poles and installation is all being paid for by FPL.

New, easier to read directional signs coming

If you haven't yet seen the new directional sign near Le Club, check it out.

A campaign to improve the directional signs across the village is underway, and this was the first sign.

Have you taken the CVE Central Park Survey?

What are you waiting for?

______________

It's YOUR park. It should have what YOU want!

Master Management is working with park planners to transform the old golf course into the new CVE Central Park. But we need to know what you want the park to look like.

CVE Central Park will be a first-of-its-kind destination unlike anything located within any South Florida 55+ community.

If you have not yet taken the short survey telling us what you would like to see in CVE Central Park, click the below link. It won't take more than five minutes.

A note from the Executive Director

These last few weeks can be summed up in one word:

Whew!

We managed to dodge the worst from Hurricane Dorian, and life here in the Village has returned to normal.

I hope you were receiving the important hurricane information we emailed throughout the storm. The Master Management updates included important information on security, transportation, and safety. If you did not, please contact us to ensure we have your email address.

Dorian was a good test for staff, security, and communications. I want to commend all those involved in storm response who did an outstanding job ensuring the Village was prepared and ready.
