By way of explanation, I am the husband of Gloria Sommers, president of the Ocean Oaks COA where we live, and who also concurrently serves as a director of the Ocean Woods HOA, where we own two properties, the first purchased in 1995. I am retired, but now find myself Gloria's part-time research assistant, which is the I reason that I happen to have the attached documents readily available. I am referring to your April 11 email response (which Gloria shared with me) to a Mr. Sekowski, whom I do not know. I would not interject myself further, but have one point of clarification that I hope will help. You referred to the arborist working five years ago in the "Ridgewood Ave City roadway easement area." The entire arc of property between the south black line and the matching arc of the red line immediately north (on your map) was deeded to the City of Cape Canaveral in 1993. This is one of the documents included in the attachment, as well as easements predating the 1993 deed. I also wanted to alert you to a discrepancy, perhaps, in the map that you attached. It appears from the map that the entirety of section 232 is not the property of Ocean Woods. However, to my knowledge, it is the easternmost single-story unit only, along with property to the east of the structure, that does not belong to Ocean Woods (knowledge of which, as I understand, was a shock to Ocean Woods, who had been treating the property as common area for years). In the drawing, it appears that not only that unit but the four adjacent townhouse units immediately to the west would not be part of the Ocean Woods community. I am sure that this is not the case, but wanted to alert you to the discrepancy. Last, Gloria and I happen to own the top floor, northwest corner unit of the north building in Ocean Oaks (the corner almost touching the black arc line in your attached photo.) I invite you to"survey" the entire layout from our balcony, or perhaps, better yet, I would be happy to take you up on the roof for an even better bird's-eye view. Note from your aerial view photo that you will have visibility of all the lines (red,white, and blue!) appearing in the photo. I have included my wife and Donna Lugo, president of the Ocean Woods HOA as addressees, and perhaps the three of you can discuss the various property lines, ie., Ocean Oaks, City of Cape Canaveral, Ocean Woods, and Harbor Heights, from the balcony or roof. Please feel free to invite anyone you wish, if you think that such a perspective might be helpful Have a great day!!! Respectfully, Ron Sommers Florida has a very broad public records law.
