CONDO NEWS AND INFORMATION

---

On February 16th 2026, the Rose Garden Villas Annual  Meeting and Board of Directors Election will be held at the Cape Coral Public Library.

Owners are strongly encouraged  to apply for a board position regardless of experience and time owned.  We are losing some of our current Board members in 2026 and those positions must be filled, or the association will go to a state-run board which will impact our day-to-day association are and maintenance as well as increase owner quarterly assessment. 

The form to apply is on the Owners Only page with the Annual Meeting manager.  Please feel free to contact any Board Member or our Property Manager if you have any questions about being a board member.  

Great news, thanks to our Board for diligently pursuing our Insurance Company for a fair settlement for Ian damages, we are able to waive owner 2026 1st quarter assessment.  The next assessment will be due on March 1st, 2026.     The Board was also able to hold assessment amount steady at $2,060 per quarter, 2026 will be the second year in a row with no increase.  Please note that if you are not current with 2025 assessments, late fees will continue to accrue.  

The  October Financials have been posted on tjhe Owners Only page and the Compass Rose Portal.

OCtober 2025 Board Meeting Minutes have been posted on the Owners Only page

The wind mitigation documents for each building have been posted on the Owners Only page below the Meeting Minutes.  You condo insurance company may ask these and might offer a discount due to these all being current.

We have a new pest control vendor, J.V. Buggs.  This is a locally owned company that has been servicing our rat boxes for many years.  They will be doing the grounds once a month and interior treatments on demand.  If you need your unit treated going forward, please phone them for an appointment at   239-826-5892.

Just a reminder,  overnight guests are allowed to occupy your unit for a limited stay (2 weeks or less if not related, 30 days for close relatives) if you are away.  HOWEVER, you must submit a guest registration form to Compass Rose Property Management.  The form (Form 12) is available on the File Downloads page in both .pdf and Word format.   You can can complete the form on your device or PC and send via email or US mail/Fax.   

Non-overnight guest visits are not allowed when you are away and no guests are allowed to bring pets.  ALSO, please make sure your guests are fully aware of the all the Associations rules, especially those regarding pool usage.  

Please confirm your guests have turned off  the water to your unit when they leave.

No registration is required if you are here during your guests stay.

A reminder to all owners and residents, per our rules, nothing is to be stored in front of your parking spot except 2 bicycles.   Please remove any other items that are stored there.  

**DO NOT LEAVE ANY ITEMS NEXT TO THE DUMPSTER.  IF IT DOESN'T FIT IN THE DUMPSTER, YOU MUST CALL WASTE PRO FOR A SPECIAL BULK PICKUP. **  

Please do not dispose of any cardboard boxes in the dumpster.   These should be broken down and placed in the recycle bins.   If they are too large to fit in the bins, kindly place the broken  down boxes between any of the bins.   Doing this will save space in the dumpster for real garbage and also benefit the environment.    

As a reminder, no plastic bags should be placed in the recycle bins as they are not recyclable.  Empty plastic bags containing recyclables directly into the bins and discard the plastic bags in the dumpster.  

IMPORTANT:

CONTRACTORS ARE NOT ALLOWED TO USE THE DUMPSTER OR BULK PICK UPS FOR ANY JOBS  THAT THEY MIGHT PERFORM HERE.  Please make sure any contractors you hire are aware of this rule and that they dispose of any construction debris offsite.

This is a courtesy reminder to all residents - do not flush any type of wipes, even those labeled as flushable (they really aren't)  Also no other paper product of any kind except toilet paper should be flushed.   Our sewer drains and lift station are very sensitive to clogs which cost our association lots of $$ to clear.    For owners with cats, kitty litter should never be flushed as well.
