Dear Kingsgate Owner,
May this message find Kingsgate owners in full preparedness for the upcoming holidays and year-end celebration activities. The condition of the resort throughout year 2011 has been one of peak appearance and activity. The September 28th POA meeting provided owners with good new from auditors relative to the stable financial strength of the association and elicited positive comments as to the appearance and condition of the property. We have again been awarded the Silver Crown status by R.C.I . for this up-coming year.
Due to the continued weakness of the overall economy the management company has been instructed, for the third consecutive year, to prepare a budget with no additional costs over last year. Hopefully, when annual statements are received owners will see little or no fee increase from the previous two years.
New supplier contracts were initiated in 2011 for landscaping and housekeeping in 2012. These changes along with electric utility savings (resulting from new efficient air conditioning units replacing old ones) and new roofing on more of the buildings will be ongoing projects throughout 2012. Nearly al of the 2011 projects are completed. Most recent brush stroke analysis of the 2011 budget indicates we will experience no surprises at the year-end closing.
Kingsgate did take a hit from the rain and wind of the category one Hurricane Irene. Some trees were downed and siding blown off buildings, all of which have been repaired and for the most part covered by our insurance. Our thanks to the management and employees who were prepared and had executed an emergency plan for guests. Those guests who chose to stay in the resort were well provided for even when electrical power was lost. Generators purchased years ago were useful to keep activity and reception facilities functional.
Extensive services, which exceed that of most other resort experiences, will continue to be provided to all our owners and guests of all ages. The new theatre continues to be a big draw; and attempts to provide additional show times, as allows, will be added. In 2012, your Board of Directors and the management company will continue to critique existing services and programs, as well as new programs and expenses, in the best interest of the Kingsgate Property Owners Association.
Cordially,
Ronald E. Wentz
President
