Discussion followed. Motion carried.
There have been misunderstandings about common elements. There are general and limited common elements. A member that has limited common elements adjacent to their lot that they alone have the use of, that member is expected to maintain responsibility for that area in a safe, clean, and sanitary condition. Meaning that share holder has the responsibility to mow and maintain that area. Also, it is asked of members to follow the appropriate steps if they have a complaint. First, talk to the manager and he will in turn take it to the Board of Directors. Most problems can be handled in that manner. There is a time and place to hear complaints. Starting next spring, one weekend a month, there will be Board members present at the clubhouse to hear complaints. Dates and times will be posted in the clubhouse. Although the Board of Directors are open to hearing complaints they too are at the campground to enjoy and relax with family and friends.
-Activities-Any monies that are taken in over the course of the year, minus expenses, go back into the campground. Thank you to all who participated any of the activities this year.
