Shell Island Beach Club No Longer Managed by HGVC

[ecwinch]

I think the first question I would ask is what has the BOD budgeted for legal expenses in 2009. Obviously this could become a large unusual expense, and I think it would be sad if a special assessment was required to fund legal expenses related to the termination for cause.

I can't wait to get this BOD out

The lack of keeping owners informed was a big mistake.

Lawyers and the board

As an owner and working at Shell Island Beach Club, I can honestly say this board did not act on behalf of the timeshare owners. Actions speak louder then words.
The board made up of whole owners had an agenda, and with the help of the attorneys, created loop holes to leave the timeshare owners in the dark.
If I were a fly on the wall....I bet all 12 of the whole owners knew in advance what was going to happen.
:annoyed:

It'll take some very motivated TS owners to overcome the inertia that typifies most OA's. From what I've seen, most TS owners don't have the time or inclination to become involved.

In my neightborhood, residents do little more than complain about the BOD's. The "Grounds Director" seat wasn't filled at the last election, 'cuz no one volunteered to serve, and I not proud to say, neither did I.

Sounds like my sister's group in her neighborhood. She's got a meeting tonight of her BOD, they are more concerned about unauthorized statues in the flower beds than getting some of the dead beats to pay their dues on time.

It will be interesting to see the turn out, we have an over/under bet going. Loser has to buy dessert at the local ice cream place.

Shell Island HGVC has value

Joan- I am glad you are stating your views as an owner, since you are or were on site you have a good idea of what was going on. The current board has run amuck. I purchased at Shell Island with your assistance several years ago because it was a HGVC managed resort. I feel there is value in having the HGVC management.

Thanks KTER. I would like to urge any Shell Island Owner to join the Web site that you mentioned.

The owners are really doing a good job coming together to get this board removed. It has become very clear looking back that this was planned with the help of an expensive attorney.
