The following (short-hand {w/ snide comments}) is in regards to the refurbish letter from the WSJ Association Management (somewhat in-line with the couch/draperie replacement)
2/15/08
Assoc. Member,
We are pleased to make you aware of the latest project planned for the WSJ Resort and Villas. (goes on to give the history of refurbish vote that would have passed, but not enough Owners voted... {mainly because of extremely poor comunications on WSJ's part})
Since that time, with the billing of the 2007 MFs, the Assoc's reserves were funded to a level that would allow to begin the replacement of key items. Included in teh 2007 reserve replacement are sofas, occasional chair, living room drapery, and carpeting for the entire villas (attached). Some of these items have already been installed. {that would be our villa}
With the approval of the 2008 resort budget {15% increase}, we have accumulated enough funds in the reserves to move onto the next phase of replacments. The specific items are provided (attached). These replacements are scheduled to begin installation 8/15/08 with completion slated for 11/28/08.
We are currently working on the issues of upgrading the kitchens and bathrooms in the villas. We will communicate updates regarding these items in the future {based on history - 2015?}
With the 2 previous requests for your vote to approve a refurbishment, we understand there may be some confusion regarding the replacement schedule (no foolin'} and the specific items included. We hope this letter serves to provide clarity on what you may expect when you next visit WSJ.
Going forward, there is a plan to replace items on a regular basis in conjunction with the replacment reserve schedule. {blah, blah, blah...}
Sincerely
BOD
Virgin Grand Villas - STJ Condo Owners Assoc.
