Belmont Projects Page
There are always projects underway at the Belmont. This year is no exception!
Please scroll down to see everything that has been done over the last eighteen years. The list is extensive. There are many items that are not listed. I've just highlighted the major projects.
We have a rotating and ongoing procedure to paint balcony ceilings, rails, and fascia's. We are also making structural repairs to many of the balconies and concrete blocks that are not sound.

Landscape Design
As you know, the Board of Trustees engaged the services of Phil Cheny Landscape Design to provide an overall redesign for Belmont's mature and dated landscaping. We have since undertaken the design process with the skills and vision of Whitten Landscaping. Craig Whitten knows what the designer intended for the entire property, and by utilizing his expertise, Belmont will save thousands in design work. The project will be performed in phases over several years.

At the same time; we've replaced all through wall fittings in order to mitigate any leaks. We had to drive the truck across the beach in order to be close enough to shoot the new material.

We removed 45 trees that were either destroyed or damaged by the Tornado that hit us on July 23rd.
An extension of our parking lot replacement is rehabilitating the retention pond behind Buildings One & Two. This area became wildly overgrown, thus defeating its purpose. A Retention pond is designed to remove excess stormwater that flows from both the coastal dune and the landscaped portions of our property. When this fails, there is a greater chance of having water back up towards the building or seeping underground, causing frost heaves in our newly paved lot. We've revitalized this area by removing all vegetation and laying a bed of native stone that will act as natural filtration & drainage.
