C-23 Canal Easement - Evergreen Property Owners Association

Dear Evergreen Residents,

We want to remind all residents that the easement along the C-23 Canal is not property owned or governed by the Evergreen Community and its Board of Directors. Therefore, neither the Board nor Coastal Property Management has the authority to issue violations related to its use.

The South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD) has received a high volume of calls regarding activity on the canal easement. To clarify, any concerns or reports of unauthorized or unsafe activity, such as ATV use, should be directed to the Martin County Sheriff’s Office, which has the proper jurisdiction. Residents are kindly asked not to contact SFWMD directly regarding these matters.

Thank you for your cooperation and understanding.
