Anonymous has left a new comment on your post "LAUDRY RENOVATIONS":
Maybe if the machines did an adequate job more members would use the LA laundromat. I was up at LA most of July and August this year, and each week I took all my laundry to an outside facility so I wouldn't have to waste my time and money at LA. Believe me, it would be a lot more convenient and easier to do it at LA!
anon -- i agree -- i used it through the summer also and yes it took plenty of tokens to get anything dry -- but i still say that if too much is spent here on this laundry then that is questionable use of la assets -- dollars!!!!

LAUDRY RENOVATIONS
i see by the notice on the la web site that the laundry is being closed for renovations -- god only knows it needs it but at what cost to the community -- this is a service that is utilized by very few community members and surely doesn't pay for itself -- if it does it would amaze me -- --
has anyone ever done a financial analysis on this service to determine how it is operating, how many members use this facility, how much money it grosses, does it produce a profit or a loss-- or then finally is it cost effective for the entire membership to have to pay for this renovation and maybe upgrade-- my guess is that it is used by very few people-- i base this on a polls i took
DO YOU USE THE LAUNDRY FACILITY?
--------- YES --- 145
---------- NO--- 34
HOW OFTEN DO YOU USE THE LAUNDRY FACILITY?
--------- EVERY TRIP ------------- 3
-------------OFTEN -------------- 4
--------OCCASIONALLY ----------- 138
-------------- NEVER ------------ 32
this indicates that few if anyone uses this facility on a regular basis -- most people coming to la don't come to do their laundry -- they take it home --also the most members visiting la are weekenders and there is no need to have to do the dirty cloths here at la--- the usage is the 20 or so nesters and they also generate the most consistent complaints -- to satisfy them the bod is spending money to quiet them down -- all members pay for this type of waste and it shouldn't happen -- money should not be spent unless there is a real need-- this laundry is not a real need or priority!!!!
you have got to question how much is being spent on a service that few if any members use or want -- i'm sure it is not cost effective to be spending this money --
this is an another example of mismanagement of the la assets by this board--there are plenty more and we'll get to them in due time -- this bod is the gift that keeps giving--so more to follow
