Bill, the difference is in philosophy. If people assume our businesses will or should lose money, you can bet they will.
I believe with proper management they can make money. Over time these losses amount to many millions of dollars, dollars better spent on upkeep and maintenance. Your position seems to be -- so what. My position is -- OPA can do better. Businesses succeed or fail, for the most part, as a result of management. As for the importance of golf, if it is so important why aren't more people paying to play. Obviously people don't buy in OP in any numbers because they wish to play golf -- at least not on OPA's course. You might run out of here if the course became a well managed park, but I believe property values would increase. Golf will cost this community $10 million over the period 2007-2017. I believe that money could be better spent for the benefit of all 8440 association members, and not the relative few who play golf. |

For reference, the above message is a reply to a message where: site the cost to each individual lot for the big three (Golf, Yacht Club and Aquatics) is $146.21 each plus an additional $296.00 in capital expenses in the new budget for next year. Pretty soon we will be talking about real money Marty, 146.21 plus 296,00 divided by 8440 is 8.50 per week . You got to pay for your play. I want to come down here with a YC that does not stink when you go into the front doors and a golf course that you can play on if you chose to. If I was to go to OP with a realtor and they should me a park where there used to be a golf course and a YC that was shuttered, I would run like hell out of there. That is my opinion and I can hardly wait for the rebuttals. Bill |
