on June golf rounds. Rounds were down about 16% from 2007 and 2008.
Y-T-D rounds were
down 9% from 2007 and 8% from 2008. Total rounds were down less than members and
guests which could be a result of higher public play. Revenue per round also has
increased over both 2007 & 2008. Y-T-D revenues are up $4,000 over 2007, but
down $21,000
over 2008.

where it should be hung.

Baszczuk reported
there are (2) 4 ton A/C units in the Clubhouse that are in need of replacing.
He has received quotes from Teague’s A/C & Aires Refrigeration. Teague’s
is our present service company and Baszczuk has been reviewing the yearly cost
for their services. He feels we are not getting the service that we are paying
for. The Board discussed the quotes provided to replace the A/C units and the
possibility of changing service companies.
The Board agreed
that Baszczuk is Liaison to the Clubhouse and should make the decision to change
service companies. Baszczuk informed the Board that he has been having
discussions with the owner of Aires Refrigeration who has suggested we change
the 4 ton units to 5 tons. The Board agreed to put a cap amount of $6,400 to
replace the two A/C units.

Baszczuk reported
he is in the process of looking at the sound system in the Clubhouse to see if
it is possible to get it working again so we can have music throughout the
building. Baszczuk explained to the Board on how the system works and will
report back with his findings.
Zernzach asked
Mike on how the new electrical system for the golf course irrigation was
working. Mike responded “great”.
Ford reported the
Tennis committee has requested to have tennis court fence painted black and they
need a storage unit for their brooms, supplies, etc. The Board discussed these
issues and it was decided, Ford will get in contact with some painting
contractors for bids and search for a storage unit that is not tall and must be
appealing in appearance.
Ford reported he
has given Mike approval to purchase sod for the front of the Clubhouse near the
sidewalk on
New Business:
Baszczuk reported
that the owners of Vision Golf Management have proposed reductions in the
Clubhouse hours to reduce cost. The Board is not in favor of this at all because
it would also reduce the services to our members.
Maranto informed
the Board that the buzzards on the #9 island broke the concrete pelican. It
appears they don’t like him very much. Mike will try to fix and replace him back
on the island.
Maranto reported
with the recent economy and foreclosure conditions, banks have become very
cautious about lending money for mortgages. It has come to his attention that
some banks will require that condominium management provide the percentage of
owner occupied units versus rentals. In one resent incident, the sale was about
to fall through because the bank required this information and had difficulty
getting it in the time allowed. Maranto advises all Association have this
information readily available. He will send an email to all Association officers
regarding this issue.
Unglaub reported
the fountain in the lake behind the Clubhouse needs a new pump/motor. The cost
of repair is $1,032.90.
