Collier County's MedFlight medical helicopter in jeopardy
Posted on Oct 17th, 2024 Comments (0)
Collier County's County Manager Amy Patterson is soliciting quotes from private air medical companies to replace the Collier County EMS's air medical helicopter program.
This program has been in service since 1979 (49 years) without an accident while saving thousands of lives and costing our citizens very little when compared to the private industry. In fact, the average transport cost for the Collier County MedFlight helicopter is between $18,000 and $20,000 depending on the location within the county. No predatory collections, often times the County writes the flight off as part of the services provided to its citizens.
Contrast this to the private air ambulance industry where the average cost from Collier County to the nearest trauma center is $50,000 to $60,000. They have a specialized collections department and are aggressively pursuing payment.

Lakewood Country Club situation

Hello Neighbors,
If you were in attendance during the recent Annual HOA meeting, thank you. As you know, the Board of Directors is monitoring the situation with the proposal made to add a STARability facility. At that time, we also put out information regarding the first public meeting held by the development company. This meeting was well attended by the entire Lakewood Community.
The master association (Lakewood Community Services LCS) has organized a committee that will help disseminate information and try to organize the opposition to this plan.
As this committee comes together - Lakewood Single Family I HOA has agreed to post information on this website. Please stay tuned for updates as we get them from the committee. In addition, you should have received an email from Cambridge management about the recent meeting. If you have given them your email address they will mirror what we post here on the site.
The LSFI HOA Board of Directors has not made any public decision regarding our position. With that said, most are not in favor of this plan to develop the area. We are completely opposed to any new development on the golf course itself!
Stay tuned for updates.

Where to get a new mailbox
Posted on Jan 9th, 2019 Comments (0)
The BOD thought it would be great to help our homeowners by pointing you to a couple of businesses that provide mailboxes (post and box) that is acceptable per the by-laws. Remember you must comply with the by-laws when erecting a new mailbox. Painting an old wooden mailbox black will not be acceptable by the BOD.
