Penthouse in NYC, maybe you should run for the board and straighten things out!!!...There are a lot of property owners in LA that have management positions in the other world outside of Lake Adventure and am quite sure they, along with retirees, would be an asset. I feel if you don't have a solution to the problem don't create another. Once the board opened up the finances with the budget and salaries to all they unleashed a whole new source of anger with property owners who are NOT happy with the way things are being run and to let everyone know how much people are being paid for what they do, those of us working probably feel slighted when we are being asked to take from 10 to 15% pay cuts and pay more for medical and are happy to have a job!!! I don't know where the board works, if they do, or if they read papers or watch TV because if they did they would understand why owners are upset about employee's salaries and the spending the board is doing. If they continue, with the economy the way it is, look for more dues increases and less owners paying dues, be real will you make car payments or pay lake Adventure. This board and manager, if we have one by now, must get a handle on spending and cut costs to survive. The time is now and not wait until the summer and have an emergency meeting and say dues must go up or the park will close and if the township levies severe fines against us, and the DEP as in the past to the tune of 10K, where will this money come from. Property owners voiced their opinions against a management company but with the shape Lake Adventure is in now that may be our only chance for survival, or maybe the property owner who knows the problems that exist and did interview for the job and where was the result of his interview posted????

Sad to say but you may be right about a management company. Apparently a part time BOD who have full time positions outside LA and probably the state don't have the time to dedicate to run our community efficiently. A management company would be responsible 24/7 while the BOD would still have to be consulted for decisions the management company implemented. It would cost more but they would be able to work on deliquent dues, 12' wide approval, have an experienced property manager in place. The problem of having a BOD that meets only once a month for 10 months isn't a new scenario and probably is the reason we're in the shape we're in. We can't blame this particular BOD for a situation that has been going on for decades. Gary has been a scapegoat for everything while many of the BOD members were in place. He's been gone 6 months, have there been any improvements in the place? Who will the BOD now blame for nothing getting done?
