Landscaping Services

In addition to maintaining the community common areas and lake, the Osprey Point Homeowner's Association provides specific landscaping and irrigation services to the individual homeowners. These services are managed by the association's management company with oversight by designated members of the Board of Directors.

Our vendors and the Association's Board are dependant on feedback from each owner regarding specific quality of service issues that may arise. This is important when it comes to fighting grub infestations. Environmental chemical treatment limitations prohibit long lasting chemicals for grub treatment. We do provide periodical preventative grub treatments, but that will not always prevent them for happening. By the time you see brown patches the grubs have done their damage. Our landscaping vendor and our pest control vendor are working together to identify grub damage an get it treated. But the best way to stay on top of the grub situation if for each homeowner to monitor your yard and call for a special treatment when you first see the damage.

To report problems, request services, or for more information, contact our management company, Sentry Management, Inc. at: 6330 Techster Blvd. Suite 1, Fort Myers, FL 33966, 239-277-0112 ext. 18, 239-277-0114 (fax)

Osprey Point has 24 individual irrigation zones throughout the community. Water is pumped from the lake between Osprey Point and the Waters Edge community by a 7.5Hp centrifugal pump located on the south western boundary of our community. Irrigation water is pumped directly from one of the Master Association storm water management lakes, unlike the golf course and many other Gulf Harbour communities that use reclaimed water purchased for irrigation purposes and stored in the lake directly adjacent to Harbour Links Rd.

All of the irrigation zones are scheduled using computerized distribution valves that are programmed in compliance with the South Florida Water Management irrigation requirements. The irrigation pump begins zone watering at midnight on the designated days.

Lawn Maintenance

The Osprey Point HOA, per the by-laws, maintains the community lawns with mowing, trimming, fertilizing, and pest control. It is obvious that water shortages, persistent pests, lawn fungus, and other circumstances may lead to dead or dying patches of sod throughout the community. While the HOA is responsible for replacing dead sod in the common areas, it is not responsible for replacing trees, shrubs, or sod on the property of individual homeowners. If homeowner's feel that additional lawn maintenance is necessary for specific issues in their yard, they should contact the property manager as soon as possible.

Osprey Point Irrigation Zones Note: Actual schedules and durations may change at anytime without notice in order to maximize system efficiency, and to comply with SFWMD regulations. Because it takes more than 12 hours to run all 24 zones, irrigation maybe segmented into multiple days per week.
