Questions about our new gate.
There have been several questions on why our gates are being broken so often and the costs to SPA. Here are some answers from what I know. Tom Question:Are we breaking even on the maintenance/replacement of these new gates? It seems like it is taking quite a while for the newness to wear off the public to realize they are there and need to be respected.

Driving through a closed or closing gate seems to be more common now than before when we…

Even Better news Gate Buster Busted
We have found our culprit who will be reimbursing Surf Pines for the damage they did to our gate the other day. They were identified once again with our gate cameras. This investment in cameras has already paid dividends. People keep asking why this keeps happening. First it seems to be only happening at the North end. It may be that it is a bit darker and/or sunlight may be a cause, since it seems to happen around late afternoon. We will be looking at ways to make the entry gate more visible. If the gates flashing red, watch your head!!! However, the biggest issue is that people keep trying to piggy…

Sometime before 3:30 PM today the North Entrance gate arm was knocked off with enough force to sever the wiring for the LED lighting.

We will attempt to reinstall the arm without the LED lighting until Metro Access can come out and repair the lighting.
