Sea Cliff Scene

June 2014

PRESIDENTS MESSAGE
by Alan Newman

In May our normal routine of important mat-
ters such as reviewing financials, considering land-
scape request, and planning our next paint cycle
was upstaged by concern for safety of ourselves,
our homes, and our neighbors as fire erupted not
too far east of us.
We opened up emergency sprinklers on the
east slope as a precaution and started to review any
and all steps we need to take to lessen the fire dan-
ger to our community. I took calls from residents
regarding fire safety procedures as well as calls
from out-of-town homeowners wanting to know if
their homes were still there. Fortunately for them
and us, there was some smoky air, and we survived
just fine. The firefighters helped us all.
We had the Carlsbad weed abatement of-
ficer, Monty Kalin, walk our slopes last summer
and to the best of my knowledge we followed his
recommendations. We will ask him to return once
his schedule permits to check if there is anything
else we should be doing. We've also arranged to
clear roofs and gutters of debris and leaves on 33
different homes, which were noted by a quick sur-
vey, as soon as this can be scheduled. Remember,
you are responsible for checking gutter grooves and
requesting clearing if necessary.
I assure you that the board will do whatever
we can reasonably do to reduce our exposure to fire
danger.
June is our annual meeting and elections. I
hope to see you there.

to audit.

COMMITTEE REPORTS
Architectural - Several architectural applica-
tions were approved. The Committee dis-
cussed front gate damage and concluded that
they would rather not develop a standard
guideline for front gates but rely on repair
instructions published in the Scene. Ted
Johnson will be working with a homeowner
to develop and install a prototype of utility
closet doors. The Committee will make a
recommendation to the Board whether it is a
recommended design when the prototype is
completed. Ted Johnson was authorized to
approve an Architectural Change Request
for installation of an A/C unit once it is
submitted. An owner inquired about in-
stalling a metal garage door. The Architec-
tural Committee has asked him to investi-
gate a prototype metal or fiberglass garage
door that looks like the wood doors with like
trim for the Committee to review.
Enhancement The Enhancement Commit-
tee continues to greet new owners and resi-
dents.
Finance - The CFO reported that the budget
is looking good three months into the year.
Lakes The Lakes Committee and Wel-
come Committee hosted a walk around the
lakes with Ed Simpson and Pono from Santa
Fe Nursery. The event was a success and
approximately 30 people were in attendance.
The Board approved $50.00 gift cards as a
thank you to Ed & Pono for putting on a
wonderful presentation.
Landscape The Landscape Committee
recommended removing an Alder tree by
Lake III and the Board approved the remov-
al.
Maintenance - The Maintenance Committee
recommended installing a new lock cylinder
on the clubhouse door and the Board ap-
proved the installation of the new lock cyl-
inder. The Community key will work to

3


will be asked to resume the summer moni-
toring of the pools.
Public Affairs Alan Newman attended the
Southwest Quadrant meeting and reported
that the Principal for Pacific Rim Elemen-
tary School was in attendance to give a
presentation. Pacific Rim is rated 10 out of
10 in top schools and peer-group school,
which makes the area very desirable for new
buyers.
Ad-Hoc The Ad-Hoc Committee reported
that Caltrans will soon hire a company to
begin the design of the sound wall they are
proposing to install between the I-5 and the
homes on the west side of Linden. The Sea
Cliff Ad-Hoc Committee will be involved
with the design plans and giving their input.
It was reported that out of 79 homes on the
west side of Linden, 22 homes have a sound
wall that was part of original construction.
Caltrans should be mailing the HOA a letter
sometime in June to begin the process of ed-
ucation and approval. The cost for the sound
wall will be paid by Caltrans; however, the
maintenance and cleaning of the sound wall
may be Sea Cliffs. Soon a letter will be
drafted to the owners on the west side of
Linden to be followed by a special meeting
to discuss the sound wall options and other
impacts on the community.
Tennis The Tennis Committee did not
have a report.
Welcome - The Welcome Committee con-
tinues to greet new owner/tenants. There is a
new ping pong table ready for use at the Pa-
vilion. Children 14 and under must be ac-
companied by an adult.

Deadline for the Sea Cliff Scene is May 23, 2014.

problems with the timer-controlled lock on the
Clubhouse door, the Board decided to re-key the
lock on the door knob to accept the new Communi-
ty keys. This will allow access 24/7, as done for
other community facilities. The old electronic lock

you can sign for them and pick them up at the Man-
agement Company or have them mailed at your ex-
pense to your home. Call the Management Compa-

FINANCE COMMITTEE
by Bob Coates

The finance committee and the Board ap-
proved the Audit and it is being sent to all home
owners. The results show that the HOA was
$18,354 under budget. The Board will be transfer-
ring this amount, if approved by the voters, to our
reserve account. The Board is planning to move up
the painting phase one year and the finance commit-
tee has determined that the funds are available.
This, however, will increase the dues for next year.
The number has not been determined until we com-
plete our yearly reserve study by M and M. We are
still looking for interested people to be on the Fi-
nance Committee to sign up.

LAKES COMMITTEE
by Anne Spacie

The Lakes Walk-Around Event on Sunday,
May 4
th
, was a great chance for people to meet and
learn about the care of our lakes. Our manager Ed
Simpson and his assistant Pono led the way, de-
scribing sources and culture methods for a wide va-
riety of water lilies and other aquatic plants. Ed be-
gan his fascinating talk in the middle of Heron
Lake, where he picked a gorgeous pink lily. He de-
scribed the petals, the stem, and the heavy rhizome
(tuber) that anchors each plant. Its hard to believe
each flower only blooms for three days. Then we
proceeded to Lazy Lagoon to learn the names of
other lilies and some of their origins. Some varie-
ties come from a nursery in Los Angeles that works
with the Huntington Gardens. Others were bred at
the St. Louis Botanical Gardens, while many trace
their origins to Monets garden in Giverny, France.
Following the walk we enjoyed viewing live
bass, mosquitofish, scuds, and damselflies caught
by Pono. These aquatic creatures indicate good wa-
ter quality and a healthy, balanced pond ecosystem.
After the demonstrations came homemade
refreshments and a chance to meet and chat.
Thanks to the Welcome Committee, there were a
number of new faces to add to those who really ap-
preciate our beautiful, natural lakes.

LANDSCAPE COMMITTEE
by Alix Szold

Last month I wrote about our drought condi-
tions and on May 14
th
we were all given a grave
reminder of how vulnerable Carlsbad is under ex-
treme weather conditions for fire risk! Our Land-
scape Committee will be working closely with our
Board in a most proactive way to minimize Sea
Cliff's vulnerability to fire as much as possible. All
residents can help by making sure their gutters are
clean and if not, contacting Lindsay Management
Company to put their name on the list. Also, resi-
dents need to remove any dead plants or weeds
from their backyards. We will be removing dead
brush on our slopes on west Linden and east Lanta-
na in areas under Sea Cliffs jurisdiction. Our
Carlsbad fire marshal will be making recommenda-
tions for us as well as those responsible for the re-
maining areas of these slopes.
Now that summer weather is here, we will
be battling brown spots in our grass even more!
Nature will dictate that all grassy areas cannot be
perfect as we may wish. Our Smart Water System
continues, along with our wonderful irrigation team,
to prevent water waste, especially in this time of a
most serious drought. The occasional larger brown
patches of grass you may see at times usually reflect
a problem with an irrigation valve or sprinkler
heads malfunctioning. Israel, from Treebeard, is
checking our irrigation system all over Sea Cliff on
Monday through Friday, but due to our very expan-
sive property, it is impossible to have all stations
always working in an ideal fashion.
Atlas Tree Company has been here these
past two weeks to trim our trees and look for tree
concerns. Our orchid trees by the tennis courts are
healthy but do not look so as summer is not their
season, so not to worry! We are postponing the
planting of new trees until the fall when our weather
is more favorable.
The north pool perimeter plantings will fi-
nally be completed by June 1
st
. We are very pleased
with our new magnolia tree at the north pool en-
trance.
The clubhouse now has a well-stocked sup-
ply of Landscape Action Request (LAR) forms for
homeowners to request landscape changes. Please
send those to Lindsay Management Company for
landscape concerns. You may also contact me with
landscape issues at aszold@roadrunner.com or
(760) 931-0128.

MAINTENANCE COMMITTEE
by Harry Doyle

Be Kind to Your Front Gate It is the owners
responsibility to repair damage to their front gate,
latch, and walls. You can avoid cracks in the block
walls near your front gate by following two simple
precepts:
Align the short latch bar with a light tap (up
or down) so it enters the gate catch easily.
(This may be bad for some gates because the
bar may break off. If that happens, it can be
welded back easily.) Also the latch can be
centered by adjusting the hinge side bolts in
or out at the top or bottom hinge of the gate.
To avoid cracking the block wall, close the
gate gently.

POOLS & SPAS COMMITTEE
by Pat Leahy

If youre not a north pool user, you might
not be aware that four beautiful and extremely
useful blue umbrellas are now in place on the pool
deck.
It was time. The much appreciated but rather
old and shabby neutral colored umbrellas were/are
relics from the past. Actually, theyre the original
Sea Cliff umbrellas, dating from 1987-ish. At that
time, a young resident with a toddler and an infant
offered to shop for them. (Both children have grad-
uated from college by now!) She obviously knew
the dangers of the sun rays on pristine baby skin.
Who could say no to such a kind offer? So before
long - voila! The north pool deck with its four re-
tractable umbrellas instantly became a friendlier
environment for swimmers and sunbathers alike.
Over the years, various residents have kindly re-
paired and mended specific umbrellas as needed,
Linda Olson being the most recent angel of this
task. The rest, as they say, is history.
Enjoy using our new treasures, and please
remember to retract them when you leave the pool
area. The winds have been known to blow over one
or more of the umbrellas.
South pool users: the geese are gone! Even
though this years ducklings havent all made the
scene yet, pool committee members realized the ef-
fectiveness of the geese (meant to dissuade the mat-
ing mallards from using our pools as romantic get-
aways) had long dissipated. Drat! However, the de-
coys worked for quite a while. Unfortunately, due to
unknown circumstances, the mating season has last-
ed longer than usual - three months already - and,
apparently, familiarity has bred contempt. Alas.


Welcome, little mother


Cant we just be friends?

SOUTHWEST CARLSBAD HOME-
OWNER ASSOCIATION COALITION
(SWCHAC) MEETING
May 5, 2014
by Jim Coniglio

The merry month of May got off to a roaring
(rather let's say "pre-fire") start at 8:00 am with a
dynamic continental breakfast of Starbucks coffee,
pastry, and donuts. This was quickly followed by
yet another amazing speaker, Principal Robert De-
vich of nearby Pacific Rim Elementary School.
Principal Devich filled in details of his
background: growing up in a family of educators in
the Detroit suburbs was interesting, as was his par-
ents dismay when he started carving a successful
career in the business world after graduating from
college. But then came the realization that he really
should be an educator/administrator, so he returned
to college to pick up the necessary degrees and
forge his foundation of "ancestral genes and tech-
niques."
Currently logging over seven years at nearby
Pacific Rim Elementary and meeting the criteria for
a "laid back, firmly gentle dictator," he began reset-
ting the basic four corners of his school: administra-
tors, teacher/educators, parents, and of course "lit-
tle" students.
Fairly quickly teachers learned that
"flip/flops" were no longer acceptable in the class-
room and that the principal would spend a few mo-
ments in every classroom (well over 30 of them)
every day to augment ideas and concepts with each
teacher and student (now over 900 enrolled). It has
apparently developed into a very workable ap-
proach!
Parents learned that they needed to stay
close to both the school and their child and to fol-
low some instructions themselves. As for the little
students, they began to be amazed at how electronic
devices could be used to learn something more than
simple games. Modern technology has become a
stalwart of both classroom and homework assign-
ments, even for the youngest children.
So then, how has it all played out thus far?
Pacific Rim Elementary was ranked #1 of all Carls-
bad schools (the district has been a long term "pow-
er" in San Diego County) with an API score of 972!
(School year 2012/2013). Area Realtors estimate
that score alone adds $30,000 to the value of homes
within the school's boundaries.
Well, after that news, I thought back to my
elementary school daze in the late 1940s - yikes!
Things were simple in those days. I remember my
best class was lunch!
Our next meeting on Monday, June 2, 2014,
may well feature another breakfast and another in-
teresting and timely speaker, Carlsbad's Emergency
Preparedness Director. We meet at 8:00 am and it's
over at 9:00 am. Remember to eat fast! Alta Mira
#4 HOA Clubhouse, 6750 Paseo Del Norte.

WELCOME COMMITTEE
by Kathy Hoffman

The committee continues to welcome new
owners/residents as notified by LMS of new resi-
dent registrations. Recently we have several new
registrations and will be following up with each one
in the next few weeks. Thanks to LMS for being
very prompt in sending on the current information.
The Welcome Committee participated with
the Lakes Committee in sponsoring the recent Lakes
Walk-Around with our Lakes Manager, Ed Simp-
son. Our Welcome members made personal calls to
new 2013/2014 residents, inviting them to the walk.
On the day of the walk we had a really great turn-
out. Everyone enjoyed learning all about our Sea


9


Cliff lakes, including "critters" who live in the
lakes, as well as all about our beautiful water lilies,
from Ed and his assistant, Pono. Thanks to members
of both Lakes and Welcome Committees, we also
enjoyed some delicious snacks after the walk, while
getting to know new and old Sea Cliff residents.

ATTENTION NEW RESIDENTS AT
SEA CLIFF!
The mission of the Welcome Committee is
to meet and greet our new residents and supply
them with a packet of information about living at
Sea Cliff and the Carlsbad area.
As a new resident, if you have not been con-
tacted by a Welcome Committee member, please
call Kathy Hoffman, Welcome Committee chairper-
son, at (760) 931-6589.

POOL & SPA SECURITY

Pool & Spa users can expect to be asked
about their residency or guest status.
Please be considerate of residents and
guests and observe the posted safety rules
while using pools and spas.



* * * * * * *


POOL & SPA SANITATION

The pools & spas at Sea Cliff are kept within proper
sanitation levels at all times as regulated by the
Health Department. Every gallon is filtered several
times a day and filters are cleaned regularly. Chlo-
rine will kill all the bacteria but some bacteria take
longer to kill than others. It is very important for
swimmers to practice good hygiene and avoid bac-
teria from entering the water.
Don't swallow the pool water. Avoid getting
water in your mouth.
Practice good hygiene. Shower with soap
before swimming and wash your hands after
using the toilet or changing diapers. Germs
on your body end up in the water.
Take your kids on bathroom breaks or check
diapers often. Waiting to hear "I have to go"
may mean that it's too late.
Change diapers in a bathroom or a diaper-
changing area and not at poolside. Germs
can spread in and around the pool.
Wash your child thoroughly (especially the
rear end) with soap and water before swim-
ming. Invisible amounts of fecal matter can
end up in the pool.
Don't swim when you have diarrhea. You
can spread germs in the water and make oth-
er people sick.


* * * * * * *



REMINDER!
Sidewalks are for Walking
NO BICYCLES OR SKATEBOARDS


* * * * * * *


SAFE USE OF THE STREETS

During summertime when driving
on our streets, please be extra cautious
since the skateboarders, bike riders and
others use them too.
Sometimes, especially if not proper-
ly supervised, young ones can dart into
the street at unexpected times and places.
Please be especially cautious and
observe the 15 MPH speed limit and
have a good, safe summer.

Sea Cliff Annual Meeting and Election


Happening Now ............................
The election of members for the Board of Directors is underway! This year there are two (2) openings for
the Board of Directors and two candidates. Write-ins are allowed, but vote for no more than two persons. There
is one other item to vote on. It allows the HOA to avoid taxes on any excess of membership income over
membership expenses for the year ending December 31, 2014, by retaining them to cover future expenses.
The Board recommends a Yes vote on that. Please make sure you complete and return the Ballots as soon
as you can. Ballots must be received prior to 5:50 p.m. on Wed, J une 18

Committees are very important here at Sea Cliff and we hope you will join one and help serve our community.
Committees usually meet once a month for about two hours. You may sign up at the committee meeting or on
the sign-up sheets posted at the kiosks, or you can call the committee chairperson and tell him/her you would
like to be on the committee. Those already on a committee will be able to sign up for next year at the regular
committee meeting. Committee member volunteers go through an approval process by the Board before
membership is confirmed. Refer to the back of the Sea Cliff Scene to find a list of all committees and their
chairpersons. Committee responsibilities are shown on their Charters that can be found in the book in the
Clubhouse.
