STAY INFORMED - RECEIVE EMERGENCY ALERTS JLPOA has initiated On-Solve One Call, also known as Code Red. This is to keep you informed of timely communications such as traffic, construction, etc., within JL. You will also receive emergency alerts as rapidly as possible. All JL owners are included in this program. The default for the One Call system is to notify you by phone calls, however, which may be inconvenient at times and most owners may prefer to receive text notifications or email instead. Legally, to receive these texts you must "Opt-in" to Code Red to get started. We encourage you to take just a moment to "Opt-in" to receive text alerts by simply texting the word ALERT to 22300. Please "Opt-in" as soon as possible. JLPOA Operations has some major projects starting this week and hurricane season is quickly approaching. By opting in you will receive changes in project schedules or emergencies quickly. Stay Safe!

Aeration is an in-lake management tool used to infuse a lake or pond water with air. This improves the overall health and ecosystem of the body of water. An Aeration system can be used in lakes or ponds and is essential to increasing the dissolved oxygen content of the water throughout, by "bubbling" regular air into the lake or pond.  This aeration can be done by mechanically agitating or mixing the water using fountains on top of the water and aerators, or bubblers, under the water. We have a system of fountains and aerators here in JL that increases the oxygen levels in our lake water by bubbling regular air into the lake. Besides enhancing pond fish habitats, improving water quality, reducing algae, and removing phosphorus, aeration can also break down unwanted bacteria, help with mosquito problems, and remove foul odors from our lake - all by circulating the water and adding dissolved oxygen.
