Your Board of Directors is happy to announce that Action Property Management will be onsite Monday through Friday moving forward. We are excited to introduce Chris Trout as the Resident Service Coordinator (RSC) for Amerige Heights Community Association. Chris Trout has extensive experience working with Action’s systems and processes and is well trained and equipped to handle any customer-facing questions that you may have. The Board of Directors believes that an increased presence will help foster a sense of community and ensure that residents always have a representative available to guide them when it comes to Association matters. Please be kindly reminded that Chris cannot respond ‘live’ to any Board-level questions (such as fee waiver requests, suggestions that need to be added to a Board agenda, etc.), and that these will be routed to the next Board Meeting as usual. Given Chris’s new role as Resident Services Coordinator, some items will also need to be routed to Eddie Tovar, who works very closely with your Board of Directors; please be patient and understanding and help us welcome Chris to our community!
Chris will work exclusively servicing Amerige Heights and will assist your Senior Community Manager, Eddie Tovar. Chris Trout and Eddie will work together to tackle the needs of the Association as it pertains to ongoing projects, but the implementation of the RSC will benefit the homeowners directly in many ways! You are welcome to contact Action Property Management via the phone like you normally do, however you now have the option to come by the clubhouse for more personalized assistance. He will be available on-site at the Clubhouse to assist homeowners with the following:

The Amerige Heights internet project has been progressing well and is now transitioning from the construction phase to the in-home installation phase.
The construction teams have one more week of underground fiber work to complete. At the same time, they are going through the community and remediating any concrete, asphalt, grass or plants that were affected during the construction. The 811 utility markings are also being removed throughout the community. Their final step will be a thorough cleaning of all the HOA streets.
As the construction phase is winding down, the in-home installation phase will begin the week of September 26th. Residents in Zone 1 will receive a call within the next week from the installation team to schedule their appointment. Appointments will be available Monday to Saturday between 8am – 5pm and will take approximately 2 hours to complete inside and outside of your home The current Fibersphere network will not be touched during this appointment and will still be active in your home for a limited number of months until the transition to GigabitNow is completed.
During the past few months, many residents have been requesting specialized network wiring and extenders for their homes. GigabitNow is able to offer these optional services and equipment for an additional cost outside of the HOA provided internet service. For residents interested in a more customized setup, these new options will further enhance the internet experience in your home.
The www.gigabitnow.com/amerigeheights website is currently being updated with these new options. Residents can add these when they are scheduling their installation appointment. The website will also have a tentative schedule of when installations will start in each Zone.
For residents that have not yet enrolled in the new service, please do so immediately, otherwise you will be scheduled at the end of the transition and will face delays. Click here to enroll.
If you have any general questions about the project, please contact the Amerige Heights Internet Committee at ahic@gigabitnow.com or 213-260-9569.
Appointment specific questions can be addressed after your Zone has been opened up for appointments and a representative has contacted you.
The Clubhouse office will be closed on Friday, August 19th due to the Clubhouse being used for a private event. If you need any assistance, please call us at (800) 400-2284 or email the Senior Community Manager, Eddie Tovar, at etovar@actionlife.com. The normal Clubhouse office hours will resume on Wednesday, August 24th from 1pm to 5pm.
During the June 23rd Homeowners Association meeting at the Clubhouse, residents expressed concerns about safety within Amerige Heights and around Fullerton in general. In order to better address the resident’s concerns, the Amerige Heights Board of Directors recommended the formation of a Safety Committee which will be made up of Amerige Heights residents. They will be tasked to research various safety concerns that affect the neighborhood. A few of the topics will include ways to protect your home, better street lighting, lights at pedestrian crossings, researching new parking/patrol vendors, speed humps/traffic surveys, etc.
One additional item will be to provide guidance to the independent and separately managed Amerige Heights Neighborhood Watch (AHNW) program. This program is a direct relationship between the residents of Amerige Heights and the Fullerton Police department. They are currently waiting to hear back from the police department to schedule a community-wide overview of the program. Once a meeting date has been established, the information will be shared with the community.
The construction phase of the Amerige Heights Internet project will be completed this month. Over 70,000 feet of newly installed fiber optic cable will connect each home to the new network. All the streets in the Amerige Heights HOA and the 4 sub-associations will be cleaned towards the end of the month to remove the remaining dust, dirt and 811 markings.
The In-Home Installation phase with GigabitNow will begin towards the end of August and continue until November. 1244 In-Home installations will take place within Amerige Heights to connect the residents to the new network. When your home is ready to be connected, residents will be contacted by GigabitNow to schedule their In-Home appointment. The order of installations will be based on the fiber network topology and not on the construction Zone map.
Please make sure to enroll in the new service right away. By enrolling, you are providing the new service provider, GigabitNow, a way to contact you to schedule your installation. If residents do not enroll, they will be without the HOA provided internet service once the Fibersphere service is terminated community-wide.
For enrolment information, please see the Gigabitnow.com/Amerigeheights website.

On Tuesday, July 19th from 5:30-7:30pm, GigabitNow’s team members will be in Zones 1-4 to drop off an information packet to the homes that have not yet enrolled in the new Amerige Heights internet service. The packets will be left on the front door and are a reminder that they should enroll. This to ensure that homeowners are able to sign up and schedule an in-home installation appointment which will be starting in mid-August.
Homeowners that have not yet enrolled in Zones 5-14 can expect to see packets in the following weeks. If you are unsure which zone your home is located in, please check the GigabitNow website: GigabitNow.com/AmerigeHeights.
