Clubhouse Renovation Updates [No Trespassing]

On April 18th, Mr. Larry Zabik, our Owner’s Rep, made a presentation at the HPA BOD meeting on the progress of our renovation. During his presentation, we learned the following.

The Clubhouse Renovation is on budget.
After more than 45% of our unit owners paid the special assessment up front, about $6.1 million was collected.
Slightly less than $4 million was paid out so far. That includes $1.5 million from reserves.
The Clubhouse Renovation is approximately 25% completed.
There are the usual minor issues on a project of this magnitude, but so far, there are no major problems.
The Clubhouse Renovation should be completed by the end of this calendar year.
In the August 1st update, Zabik made one significant change to his April comments. He changed his estimated date of completion to the end January, 2023. Our excellent GC, Dutch Bliss, also made numerous comments about the progress of the clubhouse renovation. Unfortunately, because of audio issues, we were unable to hear half of what he said. Therefore, we cannot add Dutch’s comments to our update.

Larry Zabik presented a renovation budget to the residents. However, HPA board member Wayne Goodman stated the numbers in his budget did not add up correctly. Larry Zabik said he would check his budget and provide a response to Wayne.

Here’s a work project update from HPA President Susan Levine:

95% of our furnishings have been ordered.
