The ENCROACHMENT!!!!! That is really the only thing that matters to those who want to park at the beach and have paid big bucks for a PARKING PLACARD!

Nancy, the encroachment in not even close to the parking area. It is out toward the bayside waterfront.

From what I saw in the OPA files, it looks like there were about 50 parking spaces OPA could use on the OPA property. At some point the lease was changed to allow a "drive" across the property connecting a Seacrets parking lot to the north with their primary property south of OPA's. Net result -- a reduction of available spaces on OPA to about 32. I'd have to go back over and look at the documents again to come up with precise numbers.

While OPA does indeed tout to association members that the lease allows our use of the lot during the day, it sure doesn't make clear we now have fewer spaces to use on our own property as a result of the lease...... something you would not know except for this forum and my "ad nauseum" research and assuming my reading of the documents is correct. However, you need to stop discussing this lease. Don't you know it is a done deal and unimportant.
