Q: Are the Board members the ones responsible for sending violations?
A: No! In our community, Cantamar we have a Homeowners Association (HOA). Within the HOA, we have the Board and a Management Company. The Board consists of homeowners within the community that volunteer their time to serve their community. The management company is a paid entity that is in charge of collecting monthly dues and making sure our Homeowner Documents are enforced–thus violations are sent, addressed, and corrected.

A: You should contact our property management company. Their contact information along with many other important and useful contacts are located on the Contacts page on our website.

Q: Where can I get a copy of the Cantamar Covenants and Restrictions?

Q: Who controls our roads?
A: The roads are controlled by the Town of Cutler Bay. The Homeowners’ Association has no control over the roads and cannot make modifications to them.

Q: What can be done about speeding in the neighborhood?
A: The Cutler Bay police do patrol for speeding. However, since they patrol the entire town, they are not always in our neighborhood when the speeders are. If you want to report speeding, please contact the police non-emergency number 305-4-POLICE (305-476-5423) or Officer Mary Ann Stahl: 305-234-4237.  Let them know where and when you are noticing a speeding problem.

UPDATE APRIL 2011: The Board has contacted police and requested patrols in Cantamar weekday afternoons and daily overnight hours. They will follow up in a month to see what the officers’ experiences were and what was encountered in our neighborhood.

Q: How do I get a street light that isn’t working fixed?
A: Report it to FPL at http://www.fpl.com/customer/report/streetlight_single.shtml or by calling 1-800-4OUTAGE (1-800-468-8243). There is a number tag on each pole which identifies the pole and may be helpful when reporting the outage. FPL is responsible for repairing street lights. It will not do any good to report it to the Board of Directors or the Management Company.

Q: Where can I get copies of the site plan and floor plans for Cantamar?
A: PDFs of all the plans are available on our Documents & Forms page.
