The baby came by and ate by herself tonight. I think that mean cat is the daddy, also pictured. Baby is kind of fluffy and her legs seem short. “She’s” also missing the hair off the last inch or so of her tail. She was eating when daddy came up but he saw her and walked off so I’m not worried he’s going to hurt her. Mama cat came by about half an hour later to eat.
Blake Olsen – has accepted nomination for the position of Secretary. He comes with 20+ years experience in the business sector doing inside training. This position was previosuly held by Erin Kofoed, who accepted the position of interim President.
Patricia Mattingly – has accepted nomination for the position of Treasurer. She is a career bookkeeper, and has extensive knowledge doing the bookkeeping for several million dollar companies in Arizona and Colorado. She is excited to make our processes streamlined and offer fast responses to residents. This position was previously held by Susan Delmerico who has resigned from her interim position.
Diana Maiogan – has accepted nomination as member at large. She works in the healthcare sector, and is excited to offer her expertise in community event planning, newsletter content, and is willing to help with anything needed at board meetings.
We could not operate our HOA without volunteers who are residents. We are a small community with only 81 houses to poll interest from. That means we need YOUR HELP to continue to operate without a management company(which would SIGNIFICANTLY raise HOA dues). Please thank our board members, as their ongoing commitment day-in and day-out has ensured that our neighborhood offers opportunities to build community, and ensure the neighborhood is held to the high standards we have all come to love and appreciate as residents of Linkside at Baymeadows. Keeping dues low is a top priority, and the reason many of us serve tirelessly to every resident’s benefit.
NOTE: We are still trying to fill 2 more positions as Member At Large. If you have skills that could benefit our community, please reach out by replying to this email (the reply will only go to our President). We are also trying to locate 3 residents to serve on our “Auditing Committee” who will ensure correct practices in community bookkeeping prior to our annual meeting by performing an internal audit of all expenses for the past year. The Audit committee will meet in January 2026, so please respond with your availability.
RESIDENT SPOTLIGHT
DIANA MAIOGAN – BOARD MEMBER AT LARGE
Diana and Joseph with their two small dogs (Gretel and Monkey) have lived at 9238 Carnoustie Lane for approximately two years. Moving from Chicago and working at the Mayo Clinic, she has found a quiet oasis in our neighborhood with the palm tree foliage around her home, giving her a feeling of being on vacation. Diana, with her bubbly and energetic personality (although she claims to be an introvert) will be a great asset as a member at large on the HOA Board. She has offered to help on various committees wherever needed. She ventured out to the July Luau and is hoping to see more participation at these family friendly social gatherings where neighbors can meet. In her spare time, she plays soccer and would like to get back to doing ceramics and other art forms.
PET OF THE QUARTER
MR CHRISTMAS – ADOPTED BY CAMILLE WINN
Mr. Christmas is a Craigslist recue who is living his best life with his new family. His name is Mr. Christmas because his family adopted him the week before Christmas when he was seven years old. Camille states he’s not yet completely comfortable, but does enjoy his daily walks around the neighborhood. He loves all dogs because in his previous life he was used as a stud. Sorry ladies, he is now retired. This is a photo of him in his favorite spot. He loves to couch surf, and likes meeting new friends along the way. If you see him out and about, be sure to say “hi” and welcome him to Linkside at Baymeadows!
HALLOWEEN GUIDELINES
🎃 Creating a Welcoming Neighborhood for Trick-or-Treaters Simple Standards for a Spook-tacular Halloween Night
Halloween is just around the corner, and that means costumes, candy, and community fun! Whether you’re new to the neighborhood or a seasoned local, it’s important to make sure our streets are safe, inclusive, and welcoming for trick-or-treaters of all ages. Here’s how we can all help create a festive and friendly Halloween atmosphere:
🏠 Porch Light = Candy Welcome
The simplest standard to follow: a porch light on means you’re participating. If you’re handing out treats, make sure your porch and pathway are well-lit. If you’d prefer not to participate this year, it’s totally okay—just keep your front lights off to send a clear (but kind) signal.
🚸 Safety First
Keep walkways clear of tripping hazards like cords, decorations, or wet leaves.
Use battery-operated candles instead of real flames in jack-o’-lanterns to prevent fires.
Drive cautiously and remind guests to watch for children crossing streets and driveways.
🎃 Be Inclusive and Kind
Remember that not every child will say “trick or treat” or “thank you”—some may be non-verbal or shy. Always greet each visitor with a smile and patience.
Encourage kids and families from outside our neighborhood to join in—we’re all part of a larger community!
Let’s work together to make this Halloween fun, safe, and inclusive for everyone. When we open our doors with a smile and a bowl of candy, we’re doing more than just handing out sweets—we’re building a stronger, more connected neighborhood.
Happy Halloween! 🧡

🦔 Neighborhood Notice: Armadillos in the Area!
Attention Jacksonville Residents,
We’ve recently received several reports of armadillos digging in yards throughout our neighborhood. While these little armored visitors might look harmless (and even a bit cute), their digging can cause damage to lawns, flower beds, and irrigation systems.
🌿 Why They’re Here
Armadillos are common in Florida and tend to move into residential areas during warmer months when they can easily find grubs, insects, and worms in moist soil. Heavy rains and freshly watered lawns make our yards especially attractive!
🕳️ What to Look For
Small cone-shaped holes (about 3–5 inches wide) in your lawn or flower beds
Burrows near foundations, shrubs, or fences
Uprooted plants or disturbed mulch
🛠️ How to Prevent Damage
Reduce watering to make your yard less appealing to insects (and therefore armadillos).
Secure trash cans and remove pet food left outdoors.
Use motion-activated lights or sprinklers — armadillos are nocturnal and dislike sudden movement or light.
Fill any burrows once you’re sure they’re unoccupied.
For persistent issues, contact a licensed wildlife removal service for safe, humane relocation.
⚠️ Please Note
Armadillos are generally not aggressive, but they can carry diseases (including leprosy in rare cases). Do not attempt to handle or trap them yourself.
Let’s all work together to keep our lawns beautiful and our wildlife encounters safe and respectful!
If you notice increased activity or damage, please notify the HOA so we can coordinate with animal control if needed.
🏡 Thinking About Home Improvements? Don’t Forget Your ARC Request!
As our neighborhood continues to grow and homeowners take pride in maintaining and improving their properties, we want to remind everyone about an important part of our community guidelines — submitting an ARC request before making any exterior changes to your home or yard.
🧱 What Is an ARC Request?
ARC stands for Architectural Review Committee. This committee ensures that all exterior modifications — such as painting, fencing, roofing, landscaping, patios, sheds, driveways, and other visible updates — are consistent with the community’s standards and aesthetic guidelines.
Submitting an ARC request allows the HOA to:
Maintain a uniform and attractive appearance throughout the neighborhood
Protect property values by ensuring improvements meet quality and design standards
Prevent future violations or costly rework for unapproved changes
✍️ Why It Matters
Even small updates can affect the overall look of our community. By taking a few minutes to submit your ARC form and receive approval before starting work, you’re helping keep our neighborhood beautiful and harmonious — and avoiding potential fines or delays.
Attach all required details — including paint color samples, materials, dimensions, photos, or drawings. We also require proof of workers comp, and general liability insurance for damages.
Submit the form via email to baymeadowsatlinkside@gmail.com. Or mail to our PO BOX.
Wait for written/email approval before scheduling work.
(Please allow up to 31 days for review, though most requests are processed much sooner.)
🌟 Thank You!
We appreciate your cooperation and commitment to preserving the look and feel of our community. Every homeowner’s attention to these details helps keep our neighborhood a place we’re all proud to call home.
🌿 Keep Our Neighborhood Clean & Tidy!
Dear Residents,
As a friendly reminder, please help keep our community looking beautiful by following our trash and yard debris guidelines. We’ve noticed an increase in large furniture items, plant clippings, palm fronds, and yard waste being left along the roads and sidewalks days (and sometimes weeks) before collection. Let’s all do our part to maintain a neat and welcoming neighborhood!
🗑️ Yard Waste & Trash Guidelines
Do not place plant or yard debris on the road more than 24 hours before pickup. Early placement not only creates an eyesore but can also block drainage and cause safety issues.
Use your black trash bin for bagged yard debris, small clippings, and leaves.
Store all bins and plant waste where it is not visible (not on the street or sidewalk) until collection day.
Large item pickup (for bulk items such as furniture or branches that don’t fit in your bin) is provided by the City of Jacksonville every other Wednesday. Do not leave these items out longer than 24 hours.
If you’re unsure of your next bulk pickup date, visit http://www.coj.net or call (904) 630-CITY (2489) for confirmation.
🌼 Let’s Work Together
Following these simple steps helps:
Keep our streets clean and safe
Prevent pests and drainage issues
Maintain the curb appeal and value of our homes
Thank you for doing your part to keep Linkside at Baymeadows looking its best!
Subject: Please Do Not Dump Yard Waste on Neighboring Properties / Proper Disposal Required
Dear Neighbors,
We hope you’re enjoying the beauty of our community. To maintain property values, curb appeal, and neighborly goodwill, we want to remind everyone of our shared responsibility when it comes to disposing of yard waste, landscaping debris, and bulk items.
Our Request to Homeowners & Landscapers
Do not dump or leave yard waste or debris on adjacent lots, vacant parcels, or common areas.
If your landscaper is doing work on your lot, ask them specifically to haul off or properly dispose of all debris (trimmings, roots, brush, stumps, etc.).
If bulk trash or yard waste is placed for scheduled pickup but is not collected within 24 hours, you (or your landscaper) must remove it (store it back on your property or take to an approved dump).
For large jobs or excess debris beyond what bulk pickup can handle, please use a landfill, dump yard, or approved disposal facility (see below).
Where to Dispose Debris / Yard Waste in Our Area
Here are some nearby facilities you (or your landscaper) can use:
Old Kings Road Landfill (WM / Waste Industries) Address: 8540 Old Kings Road, Jacksonville, FL 32219 WM Solutions+1 Accepts nonhazardous materials, yard waste, construction debris (check their rules) WM Solutions
Jones Road Landfill (WM) Address: 3400 Jones Rd, Jacksonville, FL 32220 MapQuest
Shaw’s Land Clearing Dump Yard Address: 2762 W. Beaver Street, Jacksonville, FL 32254 shawslandclearing.com They accept stumps, tree trunks, truckloads of debris (with fees) shawslandclearing.com
You may want to call ahead to confirm hours, rates, and accepted material types.
How You Can Help
Please inform your landscapers of this policy before work begins.
Mark bulk items with your address and name so HOA or city staff can easily attribute responsibility.
Report any dumping on your lot or common areas to the HOA (with photos if possible).
Encourage neighbors to use the approved disposal sites above.
Thank you for your cooperation in keeping our community clean, attractive, and respectful to one another. Let’s all do our part.
CANASTA CLUB
There has been a request to start a neighborhood canasta club. A canasta club is a group for people who enjoy the classic card game Canasta. These clubs offer opportunities for players of all skill levels to play, learn new variations, and socialize with other enthusiasts. These will be informal social gatherings, with people in our community
What to expect
Varying skill levels: Clubs are often open to both beginners and experienced players, with more advanced players helping to teach the game to newcomers.
Social focus: While competitive play is common, these clubs are also a great way to meet new people and build friendships centered around a shared interest.
Rule variations: Since there are many versions of Canasta, clubs often play specific variations, such as Triple Play or Samba, which may use multiple decks of cards.
Please reply to this email if you are interested in joining or hosting. The reply will go only to our President, who will forward to all interested parties.
Greetings to our Linkside at Baymeadows HOA members!
Please see (below) the meeting minutes for June, August, and an Executive Session on August 29th. There was no meeting in July.
There have been recent changes on the board of directors, Erin Kofoed (prior secretary) is now the interim President, and Susan Delmerico (prior member at large) is now the interim treasurer. We are in need of a Secretary. We also have one director that will reach the end of their term. We are looking for 2 residents to join the board of directors – effective immediately (until the end of the term, when official voting will happen in February). New interim members will be provided with a job description, and training from those in the current roles prior to the official vote at the annual resident meeting.
Know that during this time of transition, the board has remained diligent, and committed to serving our HOA. If you have interest in serving on our board, and believe you have skills that can add value to our neighborhood, please reply to this email, introduce yourself, and we would love to meet you at our next scheduled board meeting on WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 15, at 6:30 PM at the Southeast Regional Library located at 10599 Deerwood Park Blvd.
Please accept this as a formal notice that we have changed our regularly scheduled board meeting. It will now be on September 17th, 2025 at 6:30 PM in Meeting Room E at the Southeast Regional Library at 10599 Deerwood Park Blvd, Jacksonville, FL 32256.
Meeting minutes will be posted shortly afterwards for resident review.

The HOA will provide dinner, games, decorations, and a tent with chairs for the adult seating area. Bring picnic chairs, and drinks to enjoy/share, and don’t forget the bug spray!
If there is rain, we will wait it out and set up ASAP!
Feel free to come early to help with set up, and just hang out with the HOA members!
SAFETY:There have been some recent concerns about safety. A car was stolen this quarter, and another resident had their car broken into, and had items stolen. One resident asked if anyone would be interested a joining a neighborhood watch. If anyone is interested, please reply to this email.
SOCIAL CLUBS: A neighbor asked if there would be interest in starting resident social clubs – such as a book club, crafting club, a board game meet up, or even a poker night. If you are interested in participating (or leading) a group, please reply to this email to let us know so we can send you invitations. The first month will be crochet beach bags at the Kofoed house at 9217 AugustaCt – (this is great for beginners) the cost for the kit is $12.99 on amazon (currently on sale), and you get all supplies needed. Get it here! Order your kit online (have it on hand before the social club meeting), and reply to this email to RSVP! Snacks provided, BYOB. We will meet Saturday, August 16th at 7 pm.
WILDLIFE SIGHTINGS
You may have noticed that some of our resident Muscovy ducks have laid eggs and have a nest at our community pond (her nest is by the benches, close to the street). Camille did some research, and they need to sit on their eggs for 5 weeks, so we will have hatchlings around July 4th. Here’s a picture of dad wandering through the neighborhood, and mom tending to her eggs.

RESIDENT SPOTLIGHT
Interviewer: Patricia Mattingly Resident: Yesenia Perez (Yesi), HOA President
I’m married to Christian and have a daughter, Olivia. I have lived in Linkside at Baymeadows since 2018 and have lived in Jacksonville since 2008 (although I was born in Florida). I worked in a warehouse as a teenager stocking, then was a receptionist at an interior design firm. Later, I worked in a collection agency as an administrative assistant, where I was eventually promoted to payroll, and did that for 15 years. Now, my husband and I own a small business, “OCY solutions” where we do furniture assembly, handyman work, and wallpaper installation. We bought a house in this development because I used to drive through the neighborhood often, and fell in love with the houses, the way it was well-maintained, and the golf course (which was still here at that time). When I’m not working, I enjoy going to the beach, and my hobbies include painting, arts, and crafts – which I find relaxing. If I had a community wish list, I would like to see a picnic area where families can gather in a covered gazebo, or a community garden to grow vegetables. Pat: I would like to see gathering places for residents to enjoy, if it was possible to add it without increasing dues. Yesi: It might also make sense to reach out to our neighbors at Los Lagos to build a relationship that could be mutually beneficial, which I know used to exist in the past. I am excited about future plans to do a movie night in zone 2 for neighbors to enjoy in the summer and bring snacks and drinks to share. My favorite food is pizza (always a favorite since childhood). As President, my goal is to build a strong community bond. I intend to create that by providing a community garden, a picnic area, and offer monthly events. I’d like to encourage participation and help our neighbors feel included. I strive to create an atmosphere where everyone is connected, supported, and inspired to care for one another.

PET OF THE QUARTER
SCOOBY DORADO
Scooby was born on January of 2022, and was given to us by a friend of the family.
As a puppy, he was very quiet, timid and obedient.
Now in his teens, he is very energetic, he surely barks to ‘protect’ the house against about anything and anyone, from the delivery person that approaches the porch to the little squirrel that visits our small pergola.
He is very active around the block, his favorite buddy (apart from me) is a neighbor’s dog called Morgan, he sees him about every day and playfully wrestles with him over the grass and tells him doggy secrets.
He is also a sporty dog that catches the frisbee and runs like a daredevil while pulling my daughter on her skateboard.
He is definitely a good neighborhood dog, always willing to say hello to every passer-by and receive some caring pets.
We are very fortunate to have him as family.
Sincerely,
The Dorado Family
LOCAL BUSINESS SPOTLIGHT
