VVe have on-site <br /> management and security cameras to keep track of how our development operates. We've noted many children playing <br /> in our playground andanuundtheuvetiondsthatdun'tUveatoursite' Our general philosophy has been that children will <br /> play where their friends are. Clearly our residents have many friends. <br /> We built a wonderful playground with the latest in consumer protection regulations and materials with extremely good <br /> coefficients ofrestitution. Far superior in safety and appeal to other playgrounds in the area. Our children are well <br /> supervised by our management staff and by their parents,yet we almost never see non-resident parents supervising <br /> their children. <br /> The large number of children from other locations to our playground presents challenges,but we are uptothe <br /> task. Yes there are more maintenance and insurance costs. That!sa price we pay for providing o quality of life and being <br /> good neighbors. <br /> 1 <br />
