The gates are now closed and can be opened using your remote control or the gate code. You don’t need either to leave, as there is a sensor on both exit gates. If you are expecting a delivery or service, please be available to let them in or provide a contact phone number so you can give them the code to enter.
As there are fewer people in residence during the summer months, and as it appears we may have a few unfamiliar vehicles driving through the community, the Board decided to close the gates 24/7 effective July 1, 2022. Please be sure to have remotes with you and as a reminder, the gate code is available on the Magdalena Gardens web page. The Board will revisit closure hours in Fall when you are back to full capacity. Please be sure to notify your tenants and guests.
There was an error on the previous list and guidelines. The corrected list of plants for Magdalena Gardens is on the link below. Review the updated rules!! Approval must be obtained before you begin planting!

A bobcat was spotted early one morning last week, walking between building 1 & 2. Please note that you should never approach these animals! They tend to feed on squirrels, rabbits, rats, ferrel cats, etc. They are also scavengers, so never leave trash outside uncovered or small pets unattended.
It’s been a busy two weeks here at Magdalena Gardens. The plants that were originally at the back entrance were moved to the outside fence area alongside Magdalena Drive. A huge thank you to Bob Arno and Jerry for moving these plants and getting the site ready for the landscaper. Jay’s Landscaping came in last week and put in the new plants and mulch at the entrance. It looks wonderful!!
Hurricane season, here in Florida, begins on June 1st and lasts 5 months. These storms typically peaking in August and September. As with every hurricane season, knowing the essentials of how to prepare could truly be a life saver.

The updated Rules and Regulations are now available to view. I “bold texted” the updates in the document to highlight the changes.
The asphalt, between building 1 and 2, was removed and repaired last week.
On April 13th, ABC Fire Equipment did their annual inspection on all fire extinguishers. This is now complete and the extinguishers have passed inspection and all tags are updated. While here, two emergency lights in the men’s restroom in the cabana were repaired. A call was made to Sherry at Star Hospitality for approval for the repair. Both, the fire extinguisher inspections and the lights will be on the same bill.
