Our Community and We Love It!!!

Note from the originator and moderator of TheEnclaveSarasota.WordPress.com
Hello Everyone, I am Bill Travers and I live in The Enclave and have lived here since June 2003. My family and I were one of the first to close in The Enclave. We’ve been living happily here ever since. Yes, even when the construction nails were going in the roofs at 7:00 am on a Saturday morning, 
I am creating this blog so that many of us can network, promote our business, and do business with each other, share local relevant information and resources, create some activities within the community, and just plain, socialize with one another. There are a lot of small business owners here in The Enclave and wouldn’t it be great for all of us to know who we are.
Now, if you plan to use this blog, I want to make a few things clear and ask that we ALL remember to:
-
Be polite
-
Assume good faith
-
No personal attacks
-
Be welcoming
-
No legal threats
-
Civility
I invite you to make suggestions for topics, categories and anything else you might feel would help improve the validity of this community forum. And one more thing, if you have a complaint about something in the The Enclave community itself, please contact the HOA, the link is located on the right toolbar under “Blogroll”. It’s the job of the board to remedy our issues. Let’s keep it fun and positive in here. To use the blog, click on the category box

Here is some interesting news for sales of property here in the Enclave. A recent foreclosure on 1173 WESTERN PINE CIR just sold for $315k. 3,214 a/c sq. ft. I believe this is the Longford floor plan. Putting the price per square foot at just $97.00. OUCH!
In relation to that, you can bet I’ll be challenging my assessed tax value for 2008. I know the builder here is down to only a few lots remaining and is wheeling and dealing so that they can close out the community. Keep informed on what their closed prices will be in the near future.
Remember if any of you have questions on property in The Enclave or other areas in or around Sarasota, just give me a shout. I’m always interested in helping.

Bill, I don’t think that there is anything wrong with “advertising” your business as you have already said one of the purposes of this blog is “Networking”. I really hope we can all help each other so we don’t keep having “foreclosures” in The Enclave.
Have a happy 4th everybody!!

I love to see so many of you running in the mornings! Previously, I met my neighbors by way of dog walks!
Run on!
PS Thanks Bill, for putting so much time and effort into this blog. I hope it helps to strengthen friendships in addition to opening doors to new ones…..keeping this a strong and healthy community for families with children!

Hey everyone,
I just saw Bill today and he told me about this blog. It’s great, Bill, thanks for getting it started!
Bill & I were discussing an idea for a possible “International Day” here in our neighborhood. I think it would be great to all get together, possibly get a permit to close off Arolla Pine, and each make a dish that relates to our own heritage. We have people in our neighborhood from all parts of the country and the world! It would be fun to get together to experience foods from our different backgrounds.
Just let me know if there is any interest for this, and perhaps we can put it together when it’s convenient for everyone.
See you around!

Bill,
I think the blog is off to a great start. I think a lot of the parents can use this as a resource for school communication.
I liked that idea of an international day. Everybody could find something to enjoy!
Hey, thanks for helping with our yard too!

Just had to replace my hot water heater!!! ugh!!!
Want my neighbors to know that their heaters have a 7 year warranty, return heater to home depot. They will give you an in-store credit, then sell you a knew one right there. A “good” plumber shouldn’t charge more than $100. I have one if you need the number
Hopefully your heaters will break down before seven years! LOL!
