BAY COLONY CLUB CONDO - DECEMBER 6 MEETINGS- COMMENTARY



Membership Meeting & Amendment Vote 

So, major proposed changes in our BCC Documents managed to rouse a grand total of 38 people from their torpor.  Assuming that at least eight attendees were part of a couple, at most 30 apartments were represented at the meeting.  Whoopee!  4.7% of the owners cared enough to show up at a meeting with major significance. 

Predictably, not enough proxies were returned to reach a quorum.  Plans are to keep shaking the bushes until, one way or another, a quorum is reached and then put through the changes.

  •  Return those proxies!
  •  Vote!
  •  Or, "somebody" may vote for you...


Board of Directors' Meeting

The only subject drawing your blogger's interest was the unanimous vote to spend $10,809 for ice makers in Recs 2 & 3.  Recalling the undercover 2010 installation of an ice maker in Rec 1, and thinking $5,405 each was a lot to pay for cranking out cubes, we investigated. 

We need not only an ice maker, which will make cubes, but an ice distributor which will cough them into a glass.  Distributors cost about as much as the ice maker itself .  A distributor is required in order to keep your funky neighbors from chilling their beer and wine in the ice bin, fondling the cubes and/or soaking their feet among them.

Nevertheless, we feel the money would be better spent on flowering perennials which everyone could enjoy and which would go further in increasing our property values.  Potential buyers will note explosive displays of bougainvillea sooner than ice makers.  People can drink at 1 & 4 or bring their own coolers with ice to 2 & 3.
