Jessica Cox, CMCA, AMS Senior Community Associate Manager at Leland Management, was continuously being woken up by late-night emergency calls about her Central Florida communities’ gates and safety issues. Whether it was a theft or a smashed gate, this property manager knew it was time to take action.
Despite many residents’ belief that their community gate was a crime deterrent, Jessica knows that was actually part of the problem. Cars would ram into the gates at night, rendering them useless in keeping out unwanted guests — and costing management and residents quite a bit of money.
