Please report any suspicious activity you may notice in the Village to the Manhattan Beach Police Department. MBPD advises us that you won't be "bothering" them by doing so! Timely reporting gives the police the best opportunity to do their job and to address problems before they have a chance to escalate. MBPD's direct number for emergencies is (310) 545-4566.

All homeowners receive a copy of the MVHOA Rules & Regulations upon purchasing a home in Manhattan Village. They also appear on this website at the address http://mvhoa.com/governing-documents. Reviewing the R&R's now and then is a good way to stay familiar with your rights and responsibilities in the Village, and those of your neighbors.

A criminal report was made to the Manhattan Beach Police Department by the Association following vandalism to the Evergreen spa on New Year's Eve. A big "Thanks" to all of those who cooperated by coming forth with information, submitting photos, or participating in MBPD interviews regarding those responsible for the damage.

Painted markings for the installation of fiber-optic service (FIOS) within the Village are beginning to appear on our streets, sidewalks, and certain portions of our landscaping. This signals the beginning of the FIOS cable installation process, which will proceed for several weeks as cable is laid by Verizon subcontractors in preparation for offering FIOS service throughout the Village. FIOS connections will ultimately be made to each unit's exterior utility closet at the sole cost of Verizon.

The long-awaited revised plan from Verizon to install fiber optic service ("FiOS") throughout the Manhattan Village HOA property was received from and reviewed with its preparers this morning . This installation will ultimately bring a fiber optic communications capability to the utility compartments of each residence, plus the management office & guard villa (for communications) and main pool (for a potential wireless hotspot).

Distinguished guest S. Claus made his annual trek to the Village Monday evening and was greeted by a throng of residents filled with the holiday spirit. Kids and parents alike took the opportunity to sit on Santa's lap and ask for treasures galore. An informal poll revealed that each and every one reported to Santa that they had been "good" this year, an astonishing coincidence. Thanks to Tamerrah of the Management Office and to the joint Village/Estates Activity Committee for the wonderful treats provided for all on this chilly but snowless evening.
