Current Goings On  Request for owner inputIt has been
suggested that we create a page on the website
devoted to contractors and vendors that owners
have found to be particularly useful. For
example, if an owner has found a contractor who
does a particularly good job repairing screen
doors, laying tile, doing remodeling, etc., this
could be very useful information for other
owners. It would be sort of an Angie's List
for Sugar Beach. Let me know what you think
of the idea. Please email me your
thoughts. Send them to astrojny@yahoo.com.
 For those of you
familiar with the latest in computer networking,
check out the Sugar Beach page on
Facebook. Go to http://www.facebook.com.

Sugar
Beach.
If you're not familiar with how to do this, ask your kids or grandkids. They'll tell you all about it. Please Respect the Dunes and Sea Oats  The sand
dunes and sea oats play a vital role in protecting
the beach and the buildings behind them.
Please don't walk on them. This increases
beach erosion and is a factor in the destruction
of the dunes.Financial

reports. This directory is now password

immediate access, please email the
webmaster your email address and the unit
you own. As of
January 31, 2012, we had cash on hand of
$765,398.27. This includes reserves, funds
for operations, and petty cash. This is an
13.8% decrease over cash on hand January 31,
2011. Note much of the cash on hand is
needed to pay outstanding obligations,e.g, the SBA
loan, maintenance for the complex, insurance
premiums, etc. The year to year
decrease is primarily as a result of the
maintenance work we did last year. Cash on
hand generally falls in the early part of the year
because insurance premiums are paid but owners
have until April to pay the special assessments
that cover them.
The
table above does not include assessments
receivable, i.e,
money owed the Association, which came to
$329,212.30 as of January 31, 2012..
Note: Assessments receivable generally increase in January because the insurance assessment has been assessed, but owners have a number of months to pay it. This year they have until April 1st. We continue to work on collecting the remaining delinguent dues owed the Association. The
interest income we have received has declined
significantly. This is do to the decline in
interest rates. See table for
monthly figures.
Owners and guests
should not dispose of bulk items at the
dumpsters. That means don't dump your old
tables, chairs, sofas, etc. at the dumpster.
The rule of thumb is if it does not fit through
the dumpster opening, it SHOULD NOT be
left at the dumpster. If you have such bulk
items to dispose of, contact, the property
manager, on how to dispose of them.
Your Board requests
that owners not place aluminum foil in the hallway
windows of their units. The property manager
will be checking windows for this practice and
contacting owners that are not compliant with the
standard window treatments. Standard window
treatments are blinds, shutters, curtains, drapes,
and sheers. Whatever you use, the surface
showing in the hallway should be white or off
white. Many owners use mini-blinds or
plantation-blinds. Note if you chose to use
blinds, considerable savings can be had if two
standard size blinds (side by side) are used in
place of one large blind that usually must be
custom ordered.
