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 March 2025
Hello everyone and welcome March! I want to thank everyone who turned out to our fantastic annual HOA Meeting on February 4th. Always a big thank you to Michael and All Saints Episcopal Church who graciously allow us to always rent their space and also provided the AV equipment. Thank you also to our wonderful resident Greg for closing up, because it was hard getting everyone out the door from this great event!
I am pleased to welcome new street representatives to the Board: Philip Cyburt (Aqua Vista), Ava Shore (Barcelona), Catherine Perez (Castilla), Louisa King (Seven Isles). Members at large are David Zweig (Seven Isles), Fatima Hassan, (Seven Isles) and Maureen Bennett (Barcelona). The Board will vote in a new slate of Directors this March. I’m pleased that we have such a great group of residents who are keen to continue the important work for our community. Continuing on with the Board are Alex Spektor, Donna Zalter, Bryan Martin MD, and Debbie Fitzgerald (as a member at large).
Suzee Bailey and her team from Residents for Resilience made a phenomenal presentation. We were educated about ways we can enhance our own water quality used in our homes, various systems we can use at our docks (such as biochar socks and avoiding blowing landscaping debris into the waterway), and what we can going forward as citizens of Fort Lauderdale to continue to combat coastal flooding and water pollution. For any of us who use the water for recreation such as paddleboarding, I highly suggest that you log on to her website residentsforresilience.com as water quality measurements are posted regularly for bacteria levels. Suzee started her organization after she became ill while paddle boarding in the canals.
March heralds Spring and I do feel it coming in the air here in South Florida. Be prepared for the onslaught of Spring Breakers, an uptick in tourism and a bit more traffic. For those residents who are going out of town, please contact us for a house watch which is a value added enhancement for membership. Your packages will be safely stored until your return.
Warmest Regards,
Robyn Lefcourt
President, Seven Isles HOA
A message from our Mayor
Senior city staff and I recently took a trip to Washington, D.C., to engage in discussions with a firm that could hold the future to resolving the issue of a commuter rail crossing at the New River downtown.
The name of this firm is Meridiam, a company which was part of a consortium that built the tunnel linking downtown Miami to the adjacent port.
The French-based firm specializes in developing, financing and managing long-term public infrastructure projects. And, it has been closely following the debate in Fort Lauderdale between whether a tunnel or bridge should be built for the rail system.
We spent almost two hours talking to Meridiam’s North American executives about the project’s status, why the city favors a tunnel and what hurdles lie ahead for each New River crossing concept.

MEET OUR ADVERTISERSFive years ago, upon visiting Fort Lauderdale and contemplating asking the most beautiful girl in the world to marry me, I made an important decision. Not only would I ask her to marry me, but that I wanted us to live in the most beautiful city I’d ever seen! I not only married her, but we also made our life here in Fort Lauderdale where we have loved residing in both Victoria Park and Middle River Terrace. Madelyn and I are both from Cartersville, Georgia, a small town on the northwest side of Atlanta. We originally met in elementary school and later reconnected in […]
Water Meter Survey/Audit UnderwayThe City of Fort Lauderdale began conducting a comprehensive audit and survey of all active water meters across the city. This initiative, aimed at ensuring the accuracy and condition of water meters and service lines, will be carried out over the next 5 to 7 months.

Residents can expect to see RTS field technicians in their neighborhoods throughout the survey period. Each technician will be clearly identifiable by a logoed uniform, a visible employee badge, and an official RTS-marked vehicle for added security and transparency. […]
