Post-Hurricane Matthew Update from MPOA

1) The Summerwind Gate is not operational and for security purposes will be locked in a down position. All access to the Community must be thru the Front Gate Entrance. The Edisto Beach Police and Fire Departments have been notified of this closure.

2) The Jenkins Gate remains inaccessible due to water in the road. Again, all access to the Community must be through the Front Gate Entrance.

3) DO NOT place any of your yard debris or trash on Golf Course Property or on the Cart paths. Please place all of your yard debris in the front of your home where it will be available for pick up.

4) Golf Course Management has asked us to remind all of our residents not to walk, bike or ride your golf cart on the golf course property or cart paths. The Golf Course is closed and extensive work is being completed on the course to remove fallen trees and other debris. Trespassing on the Golf Course poses a risk of injury to you and will be reported to the Police.

4) Because of our need for increased security in the Community during this period of recovery, all residents are requested to provide prior notification to the security personnel at the Front Gate (843-631-5131) of intended visitors or contractors entering the Community to perform services or provide estimates to the resident. Failure to do so will result in the visitor or contractor being denied access until the resident contacts the Front Gate and confirms the identity of the visitor or contractor.

Any questions relating to the above, should be directed to Horace Kinsey at Southern Community Services at 843-869-4300.

Hermine Storm Debris

Please see the following notice from the Town of Edisto Beach:

Tropical Storm Hermine left quite a bit of yard debris on Edisto Beach.  Please be patient as we deal with removing this debris.  It will take quite some time. The Contractor has been instructed to remove smaller piles first and then deal with larger piles.  They will continue where they left off next week and so on until all is removed.   Piles of leaves left at the curb not bagged or debris left in front of empty lots will not be removed.  Any cut debris left at the curb by landscape companies will not be removed.  If you desire to remove the yard debris yourselves, it can be taken to the convenience station during operating hours.
