REACTION TO COMMENTS

i am glad to see that in the previous posting of comments that the 3 people commenting have highlighted concerns at la that i too share and am confident that if we can get more members to join in this blog we'd see many others share the same concerns and interests in getting la on a new level-- with new housing under the 12' wide issue, cleaning up the community, removing derelict trailers, opening lines of communication between the members and the manager and bod, expanding the activities for today's families and their recreational interests, moving la to more secure financial status, expanding and hasten the upgrades to the electric and the lateral programs-- a lot of work needs to be done and it's questionable whether this bod and their choice of manager can accomplish these tasks. let's see what happens!!!!

comment + 12' wide issue + bod

LOTS OF COMMENTS:

The comments about the board president considering other interests, other then family issues, are more important is just an indication of people being elected to the board by a popularity, or the loudest voice and bully type tactics and is something property owners should take into consideration when voting in the next election. It seems the present board and boards since we've been here, the past ten years, had their own agendas. By the way, do we have a property manager to have a donut and coffee meeting with or has the board decided we don't need one and they will spend the winter running the place, yeah, Santa's coming to town.

It's true not all lots will accomodate a new 12' wide trailer without some work. Some trees may need to be cut down or a deck moved. Those of us who want to purchase a new 12' wide home shouldn't be penalized because some prefer to keep a tipout for what ever reason. I think the fact that a new trailer with placement hanging over an easement was an issue with LA management and they should have been responsible for the charge of moving the trailer. Isn't that the main function of the compliance officer, to make sure we comply with township codes???? I would like to purchase a 12' wide home and am aware the deck may have to be moved a foot or two to get it in but it will be a one time cost that to me is worth

I'm 60+ and I care about my investment and am very interested in getting new 12' wide homes into the community. This is a vacation resort not a retirement village so those senior citizens who don't want change are entitled to keep their lots in the '70s but I'd prefer my property to increase in value not be stuck in a time warp. I'd like this to be a place my kids and grandkids can continue to enjoy for years to come and you're correct we can only attract a new generation if we improve the landscape and facilities

comment + management

I don't think open board meetings during the summer are enough. What about some good, old-fashioned, informal "town hall meetings"? We could stand to have one a month from May through October on a Saturday afternoon or evening. This would give our members a chance to feel that their voices are being heard. It doesn't necessarily have to be with just the BOD either. Representatives from the different committees and departments would be great, too. This way they hear what people feel about the different aspects of the Lake Adventure Community, their likes and dislikes

anon -- i agree that there isn't enough interaction between the community members and the la bod and management --this interaction could be as simple as a weekly coffee and doughnut meeting on a saturday with the manager-- many issues could be resolved at this type of function-- bigger issues could be pasted on to the bod for their consideration---

the past 3 bod open meeting have of late been cut short by the bod president -- i think this is wrong - these meeting should go on till all members opinions are expressed-- i do say that too many minor issues are raised at these open bod meeting and these type of questions and concerns could be handled by the manager at a c&d weekly meeting--- it is and has been disturbing that the open bod meetings are cut short-- there is no excuse for this action and the members need to express this to the bod-- if members of the bod can't stay for the entire meeting them they should excuse themselves and go on their way and let the meeting continue -- in particular the president is the one who always has something else to attend and wants to short circuit the meeting -- if the bod members can't handle the responsibilities of sitting on a board then they should get off the board
