I would like all our residents to remember to use the call in

October over 400 entrances were denied because they were not
called in. The situation causes anger toward our guards, who
are only doing their duty. The guards work hard to keep us all
safe in the village.
On behalf of myself and my fellow officers, I’d like to wish
all our residents and their families a very happy and enjoyable
Thanksgiving. Please remember that the UCO office will be
closed on Thanksgiving as well as the next day (Friday) so that
our volunteers and employees can enjoy a long weekend. o

President’s Report:
President Loewenstein pre-

Roussel for his expeditious
apprehension of a vandal who
was defacing property in Cen-

UCO held a Town Hall
meeting with the owners of
the Golf Course and members
of the Pro-Active Commit-
tee. UCO is concerned with
the safety issue and lack of
fence. At a recent Palm Beach
County Code Enforcement
meeting, the owners of the
Golf Course must put the
fence back up within 30 days
or be fined $150 per day. Both
UCO and the Pro-Active Com-
mittee were in attendance at
this hearing.
There was a water main break
at which 40% of the Village was
affected. Since we didn’t have

From the Desk of
Vice President
Jerry Karpf
With the start of a new sea-
son, when all the snowbirds
come down to Century Vil-
lage, my thoughts turn to what
is the best way to continue
everyone’s education and
knowledge in learning what
condo living is all about.
Many people who live in
Century Village don’t have
the faintest idea that they have
responsibilities to their Asso-
ciation, and this goes as well
as what responsibilities the
board has to the unit owners.
To help unit owners better un-
derstand this concept, we have
arranged a Town Hall meeting
that is open to everyone in CV
on December 3, 2009 at 10:30
a.m. in the Clubhouse Theater.
I will be having as guest
speaker Mr. Bill Raphan, the
Ombudsman for the State of
Florida, who will lecture on
how Condominium Elections
must be conducted. Everyone in
Century Village should attend.
This will be the first step in
several lectures for everyone
to understand condo living
in the State of Florida. Mr.
Raphan will also give an up-
date of what new changes are
being considered in 718, the
Condominium Act.
I will also be having classes
on basic condominium financ-
es and responsibilities that
Board members have to their
Association. These classes
will be held on February 4,
2010, and other dates to be
announced. Because of limits

Survey Response
By Dot Loewenstein
For the past two months, we
have run a survey, trying to de-
termine a day of the week that
would be most convenient for
our residents to meet with con-
cerns about relatives, friends,
or neighbors who seem to be
exhibiting symptoms of de-
mentia.
Results: Half of our replies
indicate Monday is the best
day, and the other half want
Wednesday. Don’t get excited
yet — each group was divided
also! Half want mornings, and
the other half — you guessed
it — want afternoons. All want
weekly sessions.
There are a few who will
accept any day, any time, and
prefer monthly meetings.
Therefore, we cannot, as
yet, make a firm commitment
and we are now requesting
additional survey respondents.
If you have not filled out our
survey form, we will provide
it again at the end of this col-
umn. It would be most helpful
if you could narrow down your
reply to Monday or Wednes-
day and morning or afternoon.
Please be patient with me.
We will get this project off
Investigations
Louise Gerson
Welcome back, Snowbirds!
Give big thanks to all who
were working hard tending
to your Association business.
They took care of the sales,
rentals and occupancies.
In October, we had 27 sales,
35 rentals, 2 deed transfers
and 8 requests for occupancy.
A total of 72 investigations
brought in.
Everyone that wants to live
here should be investigated.
They should be 55 or older.
You want to be sure that peo-
ple buying apartments have
enough finances to live here.
Criminal checks are done on
everyone to make sure respon-
sible people live here when
they buy or rent.
These are trying times for all
of us. Associations are getting
stuck paying for apartments
that irresponsible people have
walked away from.
When you get a bad credit
report on a prospective buyer,
it is up to the Association to
meet and decide whether to
reject or accept them!
Same thing if the report
shows a criminal problem.
Again, the Association Board
is the only one to make the
decision, not UCO Investiga-
tions!
Please come into our office
with your questions on pending
investigations. Everything is
confidential, so we cannot give
you any information over the
phone. Bring your ID with you.

Excursion Bus Trips
Excursion Buses run Mondays & Wednesdays, every month.
The Monday bus normally goes to Wellington Green at 9:30 a.m.
and returns at 1:15 p.m. This same bus makes a second trip at 10:30
a.m. to Wal-Mart, returning at 2:10 p.m.
EXCEPTION: The 2nd Monday trip is to Lake Worth Beach,
leaving at 9:30 a.m. and returning by 2:30 p.m. This is a big bus
holding 48 passengers. The December trip is on December 14th.
The Wednesday bus normally goes to CityPlace at 10 a.m. and
continues on to Gardens Mall, arriving about 10:30 a.m. This bus
leaves the Gardens Mall at 1:30 p.m. and picks up at CityPlace
about 2 p.m.
EXCEPTION: The 4th Wednesday trip is to Delray on December
23rd, leaving at 9:30 a.m. and returning by 2:30 p.m. The destination
is the Carnival Flea Market, and Beall’s Outlet is within walking
distance.
This 48 passenger bus is usually full, so it makes sense to arrive
between 8:30 a.m. and 9 a.m. to be sure of getting a seat.

Safety
George Franklin
Ok, folks, it finally hap-
pened — “Signal 4” — that is
the police dispatch signal for a
motor vehicle crash.
Today (not mentioning real
date), while I was heading
north in the rain on South
Military Trail at 1:30 P.M. near
the intersection of Forest Hill
Blvd., I was stopped in the
right lane for a red traffic sig-
nal. All of a sudden, wham!! I
was struck from behind. I was
hit so hard that the ash tray in
my car popped out!
I got out in time to see the
driver of the vehicle that hit
me lowering their hand with
a cell phone in it. This driver
never braked and just drove
right into the back of my car
that I had for four weeks and
four days exactly.
As of this date, I do have a
small pain in my neck above
the right shoulder — no lie.
Now what I can tell you is this:
I was very lucky to be driving
a very large vehicle while the
other driver had a compact car.
The damage to that vehicle
was extensive. Mine, again
from what I can see, seems to
be superficial. Not yet sure, as
the car has to be put onto a lift
and checked for undercarriage
damage. The rest is that the
Service Aide who prepared
the crash report messed it up
so badly that I had to go to the
Sheriff Headquarters on Gun
Club Road to report the errors
and he was called in and had
to redo the entire report. Ok,
what’s the point in telling you
this tale? Put the phone down
and drive!!!
Now, because someone was
not paying attention and talk-
ing on a phone (allegedly) an
entire half a day was wasted
by this writer, not to mention
vehicle damage to both cars,
a Sheriff’s employee could
have been doing other more
important business, and so,
three persons had their entire
afternoon wrecked.
As of 4:30 p.m., the other
person had not reported that
crash to their insurance com-
pany. You may also be inter-
ested to know that there are
three (3) types of crashes that
are classified as non-prevent-
able. The First is stopped at
the direction of a Police Of-
ficer; the Second is stopped at
a Traffic Signal; the Third is
being struck while Properly
and Legally Parked. Anything
else and your insurance com-
pany will hammer you with
premium increases or drop you
all together.
Now, if you are involved in
a crash and before you leave
the scene, check the paper-
work given to you. Notify the
officer if anything he wrote is
wrong, have it corrected at the
scene.
I have been on the “Cell
Phone” kick, and here is some
news directly off the press for
you regarding the use of these
items.
This month, Arkansas has
joined more than twenty (20)
other states banning “Text
Messaging” while driving.
They also have made it illegal
to use a cell phone or to email
or access information on line
while driving. Maryland on
October 1, 2009 has a ban now
on Texting while driving, and
in Maine last month, doing
anything distracting while
driving became illegal. Now
what is anything distracting?
I don’t know and I don’t want
to find out. Seems that leaves
a lot to the Police Officer’s
discretion. So be careful driv-
ing through Maine.
Now to our Northern Snow
Birds from Canada — you are
not left out of these rules. In
Ontario, Canada, a ban against
Cell Phone use and text mes-
saging while driving takes
effect October 26, 2009. Also
under the Ontario measure,
hand held Citizen Band or
other two (2) way radios are
being phased out within three
(3) years. It appears that only
hand free models will be al-
lowed to be used.
Folks, I know a lot of you
do not agree with these laws.
However, they are made for
your safety and the safety
of other motorists. Remem-
ber, driving is not a right; it
is a privilege and too many
people have been killed and
injured because of not paying
attention to what’s going on
around you while talking on a
cell phone or texting. Please:
Drive safely out there.
Stop with the cell phones
already; pay attention and
drive safely! o

cently. In fact, as of this date
we have had more than 240
claims submitted to the insur-
ance company. This indicates
a possibility of a large increase
in insurance premiums, as
well as cancellation on our
water damage policy. It is up
to us to act proactively and do
something to prevent water
damage, especially when unit
owners are absent.
The most effective action
we can take is to start the in-
stallation of the water cutoff
valves mentioned last issue.
There is a new, lower price
of $150 estimated for each
installation, plus a $25 permit
fee per unit. It is strongly rec-
ommended that associations
contact me in the UCO office
at 683-9189 to arrange for
this work to be done as soon
as possible. While we cannot
recommend any particular
plumber, we do have a pool
of five licensed plumbers that
we can provide. It is vital for
each association to install
these valves; remember that
the insurance deductible is
$5,000 for each occurrence.

Our second annual Dessert
Buffet honoring our centenar-
ians was held on Thursday,
October 29. It is time to not
only thank our volunteers and
sponsors, but to give you a bit
of detail as to how much effort
was spent.
What you enjoyed on the
29th was not the work of any
one individual, but the collec-
tive result of our committee:
Leslie Darrigan keeps track
of honorees and sends birthday
cards. Phyllis Frishberg and
Eileen Pearlman maintain
contact with the media and
politicians. Jackie Karlan
and Myrna Schechter are our
fabulous co-chairs, who also
purchased all the drinks and
paper goods, among other
items. Lori Torres and Kath-
leen Guanagia picked up all
food, including three sheet
cakes and tons of flowers. Ma-
ria Levy and Dorothy Breier
manned the phone squad, con-
tacted sponsors, and handled
all the table settings.
Many sponsors provided
gift cards for each honor-
ee, and some provided cash,
which was used to purchase
paper goods and related items.
Food donations were over-
flowing, as were floral cen-
terpieces. Since most readers
were not there, we can only
describe for you what ap-
peared on our buffet table.
A large birthday cake, three
sheet cakes, cookies, and fruit
displays.
A list of sponsors follows,
and our own Ken Davis man-
aged a great photo of one of
the sheet cakes. Thanks to
everyone!

And a Fence Shall Run
Through It
On November 4, a case
was brought to an official
body of Palm Beach County.
Complaints were placed on the
desk of Senior Code Enforce-
ment Officer John Meyers,
who has been monitoring the
actions and inactions of Mr.
Andrew Waldman, and now
it was time for him to face
a judge and plead his case.
Elsewhere in this paper you’ll
find a list of those who were
present beside Mr. Waldman.
We were addressed by the
appointed magistrate, Gary
Brandenburg. The magistrate
pointed out that, even though
Mr. Waldman stopped doing
business, he did still have a re-
sponsibility to the County and
the adjacent citizens’ property.
The parallel he referred to was
“if you were the owner of a
restaurant and you went out of
business, you would still have
to cut the grass and care for the
shrubbery.”
A question raised by the
special master was “did you,
in fact, have the fence taken
down?” The reply was “Sir,
there was never a fence in
place there,” while pointing
to recent pictures taken by
Inspector Meyers. “as you see,
there is no fence.” UCO VP
and member of our pro active
board took the stand and stated
that “all one had to do was go
on Google Earth” and see for
yourself that there was a fence
there, since the Haverhill en-
trance was created.
At this point, we heard the
judge’s findings: “Mr Wald-
man, I am giving you 30 days,
during that time you will take
out a permit to re-erect the
fence that you removed, and
cut the grass…giving you
sufficient time to comply. If
you do not, I will fine you
$150 per day until the job is
completed.”
Phil Shapkin, President,
Pro-Active Committee
Notice:
Due to many opinions on the same
topic, we must limit letters to the
editor to 250 words and will accept
both sides of opinions in order to
provide a fair and balanced paper.
The Editors
Recap of County
Hearing, Nov. 4
Many of you are aware that
the Waldman Group, owners
of the golf course, removed the
fence last July that had been
installed in 1993 to separate
the public area from the Cen-
tury Village area of the golf
course. Several complaints
were made by residents to the
County Code Enforcement
Division. Code Enforcement
found the owners to be in
violation of code and notified
them of that fact.
On November 4, 2009 a
hearing was held at the County
Building Department. Mr. An-
drew Waldman gave testimony
to the Special Magistrate.
Members of the Pro-Active
Committee and other residents
attended the hearing. Testimo-
nies were made by Pro-Active
members stating the concerns
of the Century Village resi-
dents as to their security and
safety since the fence was
removed which allows anyone
to enter from Haverhill Road
and continue through the golf
course into Century Village.
The Special Magistrate made a
ruling to Mr. Waldman that he
has 30 days to install a fence.
If he does not in that time, he
will be fined $150 per day for
every day until the fence is
installed.

VP, Pro-Active Committee
Cambridge B: Fore!
In my last article I spoke
of a meeting with Mr. Wald-
man. I heard that many people
thought that I was in accord
with him. Nothing could be
further from the truth.
The fact is, I am in complete
disagreement with him. There
is nothing he said that changed
my mind about his construc-
tion on our golf course. I am
angered that he ruined the
golf course, and took away an
important part of our village.
I believe the only proper thing
for him to do is repair the course,
or relinquish it to a golf course
operator. We must do everything
in our power to see that he never
builds on the golf course.

Clubhouse
Library
By Dot Loewenstein
Compliments! Kudos!
Praise! Applause! Accolades!
OK, my computer thesaurus has
run out of synonyms. Basically,
what I’m trying to say is that no
matter where we go, or who we
meet, everyone in our Village
stops me and tells me how much
they admire our library.
You know, and I know, that
the praise should go to our vol-
unteers, not to me. They do a
fantastic job of keeping the place
neat. Books are always trim at
the forward end of the shelves,
and magazines are on lower
shelves, easier to pick up than
heavy books. Upon arriving,
when tables are filled to over-
flowing with new donations, our
volunteers just dig in and make
sure all are shelved properly.
We are also fortunate to have
residents who observe the “two
tables” rule for jigsaw puzzles,
leaving other tables available
for those who would just like
to sit quietly and read. Where
else can anyone find a place
to do a jigsaw puzzle, leave it
unfinished, and return the next
day to note some pieces were
inserted, making the job much
easier? We like to borrow the
500 piece puzzles for home. A
corkboard (24” x 36”) fits on
the dining table and can easily
be moved and hidden under
the bed when guests come.
But the 1,000 piece puzzles
are best suited for our library
with wonderful lighting. Visi-
tors are always amazed to see
completed puzzles on display
for a week.
They add beauty, as does the
painting of a Paris street scene
by resident Helen Seigler, who
also creates cartoons for the
UCO Reporter.
Our Village welcomes back
our seasonal visitors, and,
as always, we accept dona-
tions of books with covers
that reflect the light, foreign
language books, and most
needed are Large Print books.
Paperbacks seem to come in
by the dozen, and leave the
same way, so feel free to do-
nate some in good condition.
Magazines multiply, espe-
cially if they are weeklies, and
will be transported to the big
yellow bins outside once they
are out of date.
Criticism and complaints
are heard elsewhere, at the
pools, on the buses, in the
clubhouse, but happily not at
our library. Let’s have a posi-
tive attitude everywhere!
Our wishes for Peace and
Goodwill go to all during this
approaching holiday season. o

The UCO Installation Luncheon is sched-
uled for Sunday, March 14, 2010 at the
Marriott Hotel in West Palm Beach. This is
a good time to notify your Association so
that they may put the price of your tickets
in their 2010 budget.
We will be installing a new UCO President,
Vice Presidents, Treasurer, Corresponding
Secretary, and Recording Secretary. The Ex-
ecutive Board will be installed too.
A delicious brunch will be served as well
as music for dancing.
The good news is that we have been able
to keep the cost per person to $35. More
information will follow as we get closer to
2010.
