Welcome to the Seven Isles Homeowners Association
The Seven Isles Homeowners Association, Inc. is a non-profit corporation whose sole purpose is to promote the security of the Seven Isles Community.
Voluntary contributions of $350.00 per quarter pays for around the clock security, Fort Lauderdale police patrol, up keep of the security guardhouse, patrol vehicle, and general improvements to the Seven Isles community. The number of hours of active duty security varies with the number of residents who contribute each quarter.
Our security officers patrol the streets at various times of the day and night while not manning the guardhouse. This method has proven to deter as well as detect criminal activity. State of the art video surveillance cameras located at the singular entrance/exit of Seven Isles record all vehicular and pedestrian traffic entering the community. Although our security guards are not a substitute for the police (who should be called first in an emergency or to report crimes), their mere presence will send criminals elsewhere, making the Seven Isles community – historically speaking – the safest community in Fort Lauderdale!
Are you a new resident of the Seven Isles community? We certainly hope that you will join our association so that we can maintain the safety, property values and our general quality of life. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us, and welcome to Seven Isles!
President’s Message November 2025
Hello Seven Isles Residents!
November is a month filled with gratitude. First, thank you to all of our Board members who volunteer their time and effort for our community. Thank you to our dedicated webmaster Shep Edelstein, who tolerates my last minute changes to our monthly newsletter and gets our community emails out to all of our residents. What we do as an HOA is a lot of behind the scenes and it keeps me quite busy staying on top of all that is happening in our growing City. I recently attended the “State of the City” Event with Mayor Trantalis in late September, and the numbers are phenomenal. Fort Lauderdale is growing by leaps and bounds…there is major investment in our infrastructure and strengthening our neighborhoods.
As for the “State of Seven Isles”, our most recent May-August security report prepared by SIG9 reveals routine Level 1 with no significant security breaches or criminal incidents in our community. There were no documented car thefts or attempted car thefts. However, in our neighboring communities of Harbor Beach and Idlewild, there are vehicle theft rings operating, with an attempted home invasion in Harbor Beach and a home invasion in Idlewild a few weeks ago. Due to complaints by Leslie Sinclair at 2301 East Las Olas Boulevard, we no longer are able to park our security vehicle at the community entrance, so our Board is presently exploring the possibility of lift gates. We will need to navigate City restrictions and ordinances, but I assure you that this matter is paramount to us, and I will be working closely with our Board members, specifically Bryan Martin and Phil Cyburt, on developing a feasible plan for our community. All of us feel strongly that the safety of our residents and of their property is paramount. In that respect, our SIG9 Security staff has been an excellent partner to work with over the years. Many of our residents do take advantage of “home watch” and I assure you that criminals do look for absentee homeowners, so please if you are traveling this holiday season, request a house watch. It is important that we have “boots on the ground” as these gangs have become more brazen. We are discussing ways to further enhance neighborhood security and those will be presented to our members in due time.
On other matters, I, together with our Undergrounding Committee, have strenuously advocated this year to get this long overdue project started. I am happy to report that the first draft of the City Ordinance for our design budget was presented on October 23, 2025 by Commissioner Glassman. Patience and persistence does pay off! The second round will take place on November 4th, and thereafter we will meet with the City to discuss the next steps. A door tag campaign has been launched, and it is quite important we obtain as much information as possible from our residents so that the undergrounding design meets both your present and future needs. Getting all of our data together as quickly as possible is in our community’s benefit.
Seven Isles is also slated for a new sea wall.. Hopefully, the design phase of this project is about 90% complete. Commissioner Glassman’s Office was exceptionally responsive last December in starting the City on the design phase. Next of course is the City appropriating the funds…another challenge but one which I feel will occur for our community.
As Thanksgiving approaches, please keep in mind the less fortunate and hungry in Fort Lauderdale. There are many community based food drives and food banks need our continued support. Our underserved residents need our help to make their holidays a better one.
Wishing you and your families a most wonderful Thanksgiving. May this Season bring your joy and prosperity and may your home be filled with love.
Warmest Regards,
Robyn Lefcourt
President, Seven Isles HOA
