Community Interests -WHAT’S UP WITH THOSE FLASHING LIGHTS ALONG HERONS GLEN BLVD?

Beginning in early December of last year, anyone who passed along Herons Glen Boulevard in the back of our community at dusk or after dark would have noticed four streetlights that were continuously flashing.

These lighting fixtures are leased by the HOA from Lee County Electric Cooperative (LCEC), our local electric utility.

Members of the HOA Staff reported the malfunctioning lights to LCEC several times in December, again multiple times in January, and yet again repeatedly in February. LCEC was not forthcoming about what the problem was or when the repairs would be made.

While Mastek, a subcontractor for LCEC, was sighted looking at the lights on several occasions, only one had been repaired by mid-January. Fortunately, due to the perseverance and persistence of the HOA Staff, all four of these flashing light fixtures have been repaired in early March. However, now another fixture is blinking and has been reported.

Whenever there are flashing or non-working street light fixtures within Herons Glen, the HOA Staff will continue to report these situations to LCEC until they are resolved.
