Advisory Message from Hillsboro Beach Police Department

Advisory: Hurricane Season 2023 is here! 

As you know, hurricane season is upon us.  Being prepared is vital during hurricane season, especially to coastal communities like Hillsboro Beach.  We would like to ask every resident to begin his or her preparedness plans.

The 2023 Atlantic Hurricane Season is once again expected to be above normal with 12-17 storms.  Of those, 5-9 are forecast to become hurricanes with 1-4 becoming major storms. 

According to the National Hurricane Center, remember these things while developing a plan:

  • The type of hazards that could affect your family.  Hillsboro Beach is vulnerable to storm surges, flooding, and high winds.
  • Locate a safe room or the safest areas in your home for each hurricane hazard.  In certain circumstances the safest areas may not be your home, but within your community.
  • Determine escape routes from your home and places to meet.  These should be measured in tens of miles rather than hundreds of miles.
  • Have an out-of-state friend, as a family contact, so all your family members have a single point of contact.
  • Be certain coconuts exceeding six (6) inches in diameter are removed from palm trees (Per Town Ordinance #2018-07)
  • Make a plan now for what to do with your pets if you need to evacuate.
  • Post emergency telephone numbers by your phones and make sure your children know how and when to call 911.
  • Check your insurance coverage – flood damage is not usually covered by homeowners insurance.
  • Use NOAA weather radio.  Remember to replace its batteries every 6 months, as you do with your smoke detectors.
  • Stock non-perishable emergency supplies and a Disaster Supply Kit.

Hurricane information will be provided via E-Mail as it becomes available to the Hillsboro Beach Police Department.  Sign-up for these E-Mail/Text alerts by registering with Nixel at www.townofhillsborobeach.com.

Thank you,
Chief Jay Szesnat

Memorial Day Holiday – We show Unity

On Labor Day, Monday, May 29, 2023, we celebrate the brave men and women who sacrificed their lives for our country. So we at 1043 Hillsboro Mile decided to show unity by placing small American Flags along Hillsboro Mile (A1A) for the Memorial Day Holiday. A special thank you to Barbara Beltaire for taking on this initiative and installing the flags on our property (see pictures below).


The History of Memorial Day

Memorial Day is a day for remembrance of those who have died in service to our country. It was first widely observed on May 30, 1868 to commemorate the sacrifices of Civil War soldiers.

This national event galvanized efforts to honor and remember fallen soldiers that began with local observances at burial grounds in several towns throughout the United States following the end of the Civil War, such as the May 1, 1865 gathering in Charleston, South Carolina organized by freed slaves to pay tribute and give proper burial to Union troops.

In 1873, New York was the first state to designate Memorial Day as a legal holiday. By the late 1800s, many more cities and communities observed Memorial Day, and several states had declared it a legal holiday.After World War I, it became an occasion for honoring those who died in all of America’s wars and was then more widely established as a national holiday throughout the United States.

In 1971, Congress passed the Uniform Monday Holiday Act and established that Memorial Day was to be commemorated on the last Monday of May.Memorial Day is commemorated at Arlington National Cemetery each year with a ceremony in which a small American flag is placed on each grave. Traditionally, the President or Vice President lays a wreath at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier.

Notice to All Shareholders – Termites Update

Fellow Shareholders:


As you will all recall, we knew last fall from several C building owners that we had termites – and perhaps had had them for some time. So last fall and winter (the problem was not a lot of owners had them), we had at least five extermination companies out to give us their opinion and bids. But there was disagreement on what type of termites they were and therefore how to treat them. We knew we had tented  in 2017 so consensus was it would be unusual to require tenting again. So we were convinced by Petri-Pest (a reputable company) that we had subterranean termites and we treated accordingly ($4,990 + $980 annual treatment for one year). You may have seen those green tubes in the ground around both buildings. 


But sadly, the termites did not go away – we actually had Petri-Pest out again in April).  And this week when the roofers tore off the old C roof, they found major infestation. [For those of us not there, have pity for our brethren who were, because apparently termites were falling from the sky and overwhelming everything and everyone – some people (thank you, Bruce) sprayed for temporary relief but clearly we had a bigger problem than spray could relieve.]


Our roofer (G-Force, Greg Spahr) has been a great help and given us his recommended companies. So we are now in the process of gathering bids for tenting.  The good news is the roofer (and exterminators) all believe the roofing should finish and THEN the tenting should be done. And because this is “swarm” time for termites, the reputable companies are very busy. We’re looking at the end of June or early July.  We also don’t know yet if D building will need to be tented as well. Our roofers will be tearing off that roof next week. 


Also there is much to do in preparation for tenting. The main prep for the building will be bagging up food and medication (they provide the bags), removing any plants from the building, providing all keys for all units, and all units have to sign the checklists attached and residents must be out for 2 nights. We don’t have all the quotes yet (we’ve had one from Beach Environmental for approximately $18,000 to give us an idea), but thought we should let everyone know what is happening. When we have the quotes, we’ll hold a board meeting for which a notice will be disseminated.
