They're On Their Way...

An excellent highly productive meeting took place at the Bellacina Clubhouse on July 31st between SEBPOG Full Members, and representatives of Taylor Morrison (TM) concerning the proposed new development: Sorrento at Palmer Ranch.  Around six tables, within the comfortable confines of the new TM facility - SEBPOG folks put forth a variety of their concerns and suggestions, and engaged individually in meaningful conversations with various members of the TM team - in a "cooperative learning" style fashion - which seemed to work, exceedingly well. Most SEBPOG.ORG members in attendance came away feeling, they had done what they could, to submit their input.

How much Taylor Morrison and Waldrop Engineering, will be able to accommodate and address SEBPOG's advisements, concerns, and suggestions is anyone's guess... We acknowledge the project is not for SEBPOG; it is not for SEPOA (Sorrento East Property Owners Assoc.); and it's not for the current people of Nokomis... This is private property, a private endeavor, and will ultimately be designed as per Taylor Morrison would like it to be (within the confines of county, state, and national regulations). It's their "baby" and SEBPOG.ORG is certainly highly appreciative to all the members of this TM team, for considering the concerns of residents that will be directly effected the most. It was nice to have input, and we were most delighted with the opportunity to be heard.

In some ways, the meeting felt like a "bon voyage party" or a launch, where one group was embarking on a mission, and the other would be left to wait for it's completion. Indeed, this is very much the case - Waldrop Engineering and Taylor Morrison folks will now be busy at work, designing, crafting, and creating the full details of the project - to be presented to everyone probably some time in late October 2018. I certainly wish them good luck and Godspeed on their journey to bring forth something of value to potential new residents of the area, and compatible with those already living here.
