Wow, there were a whole bunch of posts here while I was writing to Sheri!
I don't think the special assessment figure of $1700- $1800 per interval applies to Cottage units. Cottage owners were given a SA cost of $1200-$1300 per interval. UDIs are technically three intervals, so the cost might be three times as high. But, a lot of CMV owners (not just UDI owners, but owners of regular units too, I think) really flipped out over the cost, and the HOA said they would present the members with a range of options to consider.
You are 100% correct.
So quoting figure like on the CMV website as being 100% correct would be only a guess at this time and could be called missleading information posted by BLuegreen who has 100% control of that website. The 3 CMV HOA 's do not have any control of that website.

As a UDI owner and a friend of Sir Bruce, if the SA comes in at anything over $200 per interval, there should be some major screaming. At the amount you would bring in $10,000 per cottage. At Fox Hills in Mishicot, they have renovated around a 1/3 of their inventory which are 2 bedroom 3 bath units at around 1200 sq. ft. They completely replaced all furniture, appliances, and even some fixtures. All carpeting replaced, recoated the bath fixtures and tiles to white and much of the lighting fixtures.
They did it with no SA and each building of 4 units was approx $50,000.
The cottages have 650 sq ft and and at the SA amounts the HOA is tossing out, they will be skimming almost 3/4 and pocketing it. This is a Bluegreen money ploy to line their pockets and to boost their sales game on top of the backs of owners. Plain and simple.
Just glad we have a sensible member of the board who is trying to listen to the association members.

yes it is unbelieveable that they spent 90 thousand renovating one cottage. when you hae a board governed by three blugreen employees with no personal stake, you don't see it being run with the best interests of owners at heart. have you joined the UDI Yahoo group?
Where is that Rapmarks? I haven't joined yet but would like to.

Chris is an owner (or in the process), it is the second link that Bruce gave and we can use more intersted owners.
It is easy all you have to do is:whoopie: to go to the secert door and give both the secert knock and secert password while holding one foot in the air with one eye closed and at the same time humming the 1950's pop song My buckets got a hole in it.

Well the secret password didn't work for me when I first tried to join way back when and I still have had no response this time around. Did you give me the wrong secret password??
this is a fairly new group, open to all udi owners

Thanks for sharing the link, Bruce. My husband remembers watching this as a kid. He's slightly older than me, plus may have had a television at a younger age.

What amount had they posted back then? I can't remember. Was it $3k/UDI? If so, $1800 is certainly much more palatable. In either case, I'll certainly get my money's worth.As per one of the BG Management team posting to the CMV HOA board members the SA's "Should" be about 40% less then posted on the CMV website last April 1, 2011.
