The sky gets dark, the wind kicks up, and suddenly every neighbor is dragging in patio furniture like it’s a competitive sport.
Welcome to hurricane season in Florida.
If you’re on an HOA or condo board, you already know it’s not just about keeping your own home safe. You’re responsible for the clubhouse, the pool, the landscaping, the roofs… and the people who live there.
That’s a lot of pressure when a storm is on the way.
Have a Plan (and Make Sure Everyone Knows It)
Don’t wait for the first tropical storm alert to start thinking about what to do.
Assign roles who handles communication, who secures common areas, who talks to vendors.
Map out evacuation routes and shelter options.
Share it with every resident.
Lock Down the Common Areas
Before the winds hit:
Store furniture, umbrellas, and pool gear
Trim trees and clean gutters
Double-check generators and elevator backup systems
Communicate Like Your Wi-Fi Depends on It
Email, text, bulletin boards, Facebook groups use them all. And don’t just send one update keep the info flowing before, during, and after the storm.
