About the DistrictsCommunity Updates
The Tern Bay CDD has scheduled a community-wide pressure washing project to clean the sidewalks/walkways, curbing, street drains, and pavers located throughout the common areas of the community maintained by Tern Bay CDD.
Work will begin on October 13th and is anticipated to take 2-3 weeks, weather permitting. During this time, some sidewalks may be temporarily closed. Cones and signage will be placed to help direct pedestrian traffic, and residents may be asked to detour to alternate sidewalks.
Once an area has been pressure washed, a biological treatment will be applied to remediate areas impacted by mold. This treatment may cause temporary staining, but the discoloration should dissipate within 2–3 days.
The property will be completed in two phases. Please refer to the attached map showing the red and blue sections that outline the scheduled work areas with the red area being impacted first.
We appreciate your cooperation and patience as we complete this important project to improve the appearance and safety of our community.

The District has executed a new contract with the USDA for feral hog trapping, effective October 1st.
The USDA’s scope of services includes the use of live-capture traps, trail cameras, night vision, thermal imagers, and suppressed firearms.
Two traps will remain on property at all times, with the option to increase up to five traps depending on activity. Hog populations tend to follow seasonal patterns, so trap deployment will be adjusted accordingly. CDD staff will continue to support these efforts to mitigate ongoing feral hog impacts in the Community.
As a reminder, our community is surrounded by conservation areas owned by the CDD, Charlotte County, and the State. The hogs roam these areas in search of food.
Thank you for your continued cooperation and support.
