    We are actively monitoring the status of Hurricane Florence. While there is still much uncertainty regarding the forecast track and intensity estimates, it is becoming increasingly likely that we will see a major hurricane making landfall somewhere on the east coast later this week.

    The St Regis staff is actively preparing the site for the potential worse case scenario. The staff will be working to secure all aspects of the site, and will be moving patio furniture inside for all units to which we have access. Please note that all ocean facing windows and doors are equipped with hurricane rated glass. We do not board up any doors or windows because doing so would cause damage to the fiberglass framing. All elevators will be shut down ahead of the storm, so please plan accordingly. While our staff will be singularly focused on readying the site ahead of the storm this week, they will also be evacuating the island well ahead of the storm for their own safety.

    We ask that all homeowners continue to monitor the storm and make appropriate preparations. You may contact me or Shanda in the HOA office with any questions, comments, or concerns. We will do our best to answer all questions and to accommodate any special requests, if possible. Shanda can be reached at stregissecretary@gmail.com or 910-328-0739. My information is included below.
    Finally, we also ask that all homeowners please use extreme caution if you are in an area that could be impacted by this powerful storm. If you are on Topsail Island, please do not wait until the last minute to evacuate. Be aware that the high rise bridge will be closed when sustained winds reach 45 mph, which is well below hurricane strength and likely to occur long before landfall.
    Regarding our scheduled on-site meeting for Saturday, September 15, 2018, the Board of Directors will be holding a special meeting on Tuesday night to make a decision regarding the meeting and cookout.

    We will provide additional communications as needed. I would also encourage everyone to use our Facebook page and the message board on our website for informal communications and sharing information between homeowners. In times like these, it is important that we all look out for one another as business partners and good neighbors.
    Stay safe!
