Thanks Jeff!
Good Afternoon! An email went out yesterday to everyone who is on the email list for KBV. You might want to check your email junk box if you didn't receive it. The sender was savekbv.org. This "eblast" named the two candidates we are endorsing this year, Brian Reichel and Trish Harrington. Also, the updated savekbv.org website went live yesterday. This year it explains the voting process and includes a sample ballot - - and how to fill it out! Most importantly, it explains that you MUST assign a proxy - or your votes will not be counted. We are asking you to assign your proxy to Trish Harrington. I am copying the text from the email below. Of course, you can go to savekbv.org to see a lot more information and more specifics about how to vote.
Election Season is upon us!
Just Two Years under New Management, Kauai Beach Villas is making Great Strides!
Barely one year removed from a highly contentious KBV Board Election, we are happy to report that
2018 was a stellar year for our Owners and our beloved island resort home.
Plus, it is that time of year again for the election of Directors to our KBV Board (if you haven’t already, you should receive your ballot in the mail any day now). And, like last year, it is vital that all KBV Owners take a few short minutes to
vote for candidates that are committed to keeping our Hawaiian home on this very positive trajectory (and opposed to Wyndham’s ongoing attempts to retake control of KBV).
Here are a few numbers that we think will get your attention….
·
Reputation/Service Scores: Our overall “Reputation” score has improved from a low of
404 to
860, an increase of
113%!
(or MORE than DOUBLED!)
·
Rental Revenues: NET Rental Revenue to our Association has increased from
$243,000 to
$1,008,000, an improvement of
315%!
(About QUADRUPLED!)
·
Reserve Fund Balance: Our Capital Reserve Fund balance has increased from
$1,672,000 to
$4,410,000, an increase of
164%!
(Almost TRIPLED!)
This is all since Grand Pacific was hired as our management company for the timeshares, and again, we need to thank Trish Harrington and Karen Blackford, who were on the board at the time (and I had a hand in it as well), for bringing them in. We have to thank Grand Pacific for their work, and be thankful that they have more than lived up to our hopes. If you vote for any incumbent but Trish Harrington, you're voting essentially to bring Wyndham back in as timeshare manager and end Grand Pacific's contract. Given the above numbers (and our previous experience with Wyndham at the helm for 10 years), would you really want to see Wyndham returned in as management company??
