Happy New Year!  I want to extend a Holiday Greeting to all the Members, Guests and Staff of Paradise Lakes Resort and wishes for a prosperous and peaceful New Year.

Recently, allegations were made that I intended to pull the staff at the front gate and leave the community of Paradise open and unguarded.  Let me assure you I have no intention of opening up our community to outsiders. We will be exploring a less expensive way of providing security including a more reasonable means of cost sharing with the condo associations.

May I suggest that we all use common sense in what we see, hear or read?  Question the source of your information, the personal agenda or motive behind any comments that have been made.  Only if you are truly informed, can you make a reasonable decision.  Let us focus on restoring “Peace in Paradise” as soon as possible. 

Once again, I wish you all the best and a very happy and prosperous New Year. Thank you

John Forier
