First Annual Laurel Falls Drive Block Party
First (Annual) Laurel Falls Dr. Block Party On Sunday, November 13, residents (and soon-to-be residents) of Laurel FallsDr. held their first annual Block Party. Over 50 people attended. The weatherwas wonderful, the food (every household brought a dish) was delicious, and,most importantly, neighbors (new and old) got acquainted and had FUN! In fact,the party didn’t really end until the mosquitoes descended at dusk. While all present pitched in to make this event a success, Glenn and Kathy Thistlethwaite deserve special mention for both their initial organizing efforts and for spearheading the wrangling duties on Sunday.

PLEASE DO NOT FEED THE WILD ANIMALS
Most of the animals you see in Florida (aside from your neighbor's pets) are wild. They are beautiful. But they can carry disease and can become aggressive if they feel threatened. Feeding them only draws them into your space, dangerous for all concerned.

Important Information Regarding Sewer Line Blockages
Attention Southshore Falls Residents:
A new pump has recently been installed at the lift station. During the two days it took to install the new pump, 50 lbs. of cloth rags have accumulated in the line. If cloth rags continue to be flushed down the toilet, this could result in very costly expenses to the Association, not to mention, causing the line to back up to the home where these materials are coming from.
As a reminder, sewers are designed to take away wastewater from sinks and baths, as well as toilet paper and human waste flushed down the toilet. Just because an item is called disposable does not mean that it is safe to flush.
Your toilet and sewer system are only designed to dispose of human wastes and toilet paper (which quickly breaks down). Unfortunately, people use the toilet as a wastebasket out of convenience.
Almost any type of rubbish may restrict sewage flow, clog sewers, and cause sewage overflows. Keep the following from going down your toilet:
•Paper (paper towels, facial tissue (Kleenex), paper napkins, wrappers, etc.). Only toilet tissue is okay!
•Plastics (bags, wrappers, bottles, cotton-tip shafts),
•Rubber (gloves, underclothes elastic, etc.),
•Cloth and fibers (cotton balls, feminine products, cigarette filters, stockings, rags, etc.).
•Toys, cans, sticks, pebbles and sand, and pretty much all other solids except for human wastes and toilet tissue.
Why is it a problem? Rubbish and other objects often combine with hair, grease and other debris to cause clogging of the sewer system. Even something as small as a cotton tip swab with other attached debris can cause a blockage in sewer pipes. Rags and stringy material can clog sewage pumps.
We appreciate your assistance with this matter. If you have any questions, please contact your Community Manager Kim Bittar at 813-641-3616.
