PRESIDENT'S CORNER

How to Build a Community

Eva Rey, President

Central Viera Community Association

I am resurrecting an old subject for this month’s President Corner. I wrote about this a few years ago, but, now that we have a lot more people living in Viera, I think it’s a great time to dive back in again.

For anyone who has attended my Viera Resident Orientation class, you know that I usually spend a little time on talking through the things that we can do to make our community a more happy and “neighborly” place. Like I always say, in recent years, we have gotten better at building fences than we have at building relationships. And that makes me sad. I see so many fights and neighbor-to-neighbor conflicts over the silliest issues. In this day and age of social media, it is so easy to become keyboard trolls and insult/criticize people without really thinking about the impacts and the real, psychological damage it can cause. Not to mention the discord it can cause in the neighborhood. We are so quick to jump on bandwagons that may not be true and we can end up causing a stir for no reason at all.

Wildfires vs Prescribed Fires

With the recent deadly and devastating wildfires in Hawaii, it brings attention to the importance of learning more about fires and the different kinds we can see here on the Space Coast. In this example, we are only looking at fires that occur outdoors, naturally or manmade.

Fires can be dangerous – but are they always bad for the environment?

Wildfires are unplanned fires in nature caused by lightning or other natural causes. Wildfires can start by humans as well, whether it be accidental or on purpose, as long as it is not controlled. Prescribed fires are manmade, controlled fires that serve a purpose. Prescribed fires are ignited for a few reasons: reducing hazardous fuel loads (total amount of combustible material such as dead vegetation) and restoring and maintaining natural or cultural landscapes.

New to Viera or have you been here a while and want to know the facts? You should attend one of our monthly FREE Resident Orientation meetings. These two-hour classes will help keep you informed about our history, governance, local ordinances, environmental issues and so much more....including the Roundabout.

UPCOMING CLASS DATES:

September 21

October 25

All classes are held at Addison Village Club and begin at 6:00pm.
