Pool Update: 1-2-25

Owners,
The Board wanted to pass on the latest update with the pool.  Unfortunately, we’ve had some setbacks.  As a result of the last storm, some of our new pool pumps were covered in water and ruined.  We contacted All Aqua, our pool contractor, and discussed this with them.  The pumps are under warranty, and it is our feeling that they should be replaced under that warranty.  Additionally, we told them that we feel they were not installed correctly, or this would not have happened.  If they installed the pumps incorrectly and this voided the warranty, we expect them to replace the pumps at their cost.  This seems like a straightforward matter; however, nothing with this pool construction project has come easily.  Just recently, All Aqua sold their company.  Now, two gentlemen own the company and are new to the history of the construction project and the struggles we’ve had with the company prior to their purchasing it.  Two of our board members met with the two owners and two of their employees (one being the previous owner).  There was a “lively” conversation, and our position was made quite clear.  The new owners will be getting back to us about how they intend to correct these matters.  We have hope that this will be taken care of to our satisfaction, or we will look into other options.
 
We are sure there are specific questions and/or opinions that owners will have; however, we ask that you hold those until we get some definitive answers from the new owners.  We also ask that folks not speculate about what is happening or will happen on Facebook as it only stirs up ill-informed comments and does not benefit the Board’s efforts.
 
We will keep our owners posted as we learn more.

Owners’ Portal Message

Owners: If you attempt to access the owners’ portal, you may receive a message saying the site is not safe.  This usually suggests the SSL certificate (assures a site is safe) has expired; however, I checked with our provider and it has not.  There appears to be an error with the reservation software related to the portal.  We will be reaching out to the developer to correct this.  In the meantime, you should be able to click on the “Advanced” link or something that may read “Proceed Anyway” and still access the portal.  Once the error is fixed, you won’t see the message any longer.

Update: 3-10-25

The work is coming along.  The roof is almost done — well ahead of schedule.  The windows on the pool deck level are just about completed.  We hope that the roof and windows will be done within the next two weeks.   The pool company is slowly adding chemicals to the pool and hot tub.  In a few weeks, the pool and hottube should be ready!

May Auction

The auction planned for May 14 has moved to May 21.  We do not have all of the details yet, but we will update you once we do.

Bike Week and Parking

For Bike Week 2025 we are still extremely limited on our parking spots. With the ongoing construction we are even more limited when there are construction trucks on site. We kindly ask that you do not bring multiple cars, if possible, or make arrangements to park your additional cars off property at your expense.

As a reminder there is NO parking available at any time for any trailers, RV’s, boats or mobile homes or any of the like. It is your responsibility to find parking elsewhere for the week you are here. Any of these vehicles or any vehicle that does not have a TSR parking pass clearly displayed will be towed immediately at the owner’s expense.

Update: February 24, 2025

Owners,
We wanted to provide an update on the resort.  According to our contract with the roofing company, they have 90 days to complete the work from the start of the contract, which is January 29.  It appears they are ahead of schedule, which is great news.  In fact, they can’t work today or tomorrow because of rain, but they said they will do their best to finish all of the cleanup on the roof and have their truck and crane out of the parking lot before Saturday (start of Bike Week).
 
US Glass is working on the basement level windows.  They should be done in 3 weeks or fewer; however, their work is impacted by weather as well, and that is something that is clearly out of our control.  Once they are done, the work on the pool can continue.

Update: 2-10-25

Owners,

In our last update, we stated that we hoped to have the pool completed by the end of February or at least by Spring at the latest.  Of course, we also said we couldn’t guarantee this as there could always be things that come up to delay the project.  To some degree, that has happened.  As you may remember, we had to replace our roof because of damage done to it during Hurricane Milton.  That work is under way and it looks like it is ahead of schedule; however, All Aqua, the pool contractor, will not do pool work while the roof is being repaired.  For safety purposes, they don’t want their crew members working on the pool deck while materials are being hoisted to the roof via a crane.  While we did not anticipate they would stop work during this period, the safety factor is understandable.  Additionally, while the crane is on the property, there would not be enough room for All Aqua to be able to bring their equipment in as well.  While the roof is being repaired, the windows on the pool level and first floor continue to be replaced.  Once the windows and the roof are finished, the work on the pool will resume.
