Well, I’ve had a couple of interesting emails today.
An Owner wrote in regard to the Beach problem with some very good and well thought out ideas.
Another wrote about the railings. A few wrote about the balcony problem.
We’ve been asking for participation by the Owners and we’ve had plenty of ideas since the blog went up six days ago.
One writer didn’t like my idea of umbrellas being set up on a daily basis. She had several thoughts about handling the problem: I edited slightly, mainly to save space. But each of her ideas are here:
• Check out if there is something in our condo-docs in regard to cabanas. {Yes, but not helpful. M.E.K.}
• Check out if some of the cabanas were illegally transferred when an apartment." No transfer of cabana space is permitted. Cabana space cannot be included in the sale of an apartment.”
• Ask the people who own chaise lounges and cabanas that are an eye sore to remove them.
• Offer all remaining owners a fair price for their still in perfect condition cabanas.
• Line up all usable cabanas in one straight line at the back of the beach (near the bushes), for first come, first served use.
• Put two stacks of maybe 30 stacking chaise lounges each on the South side and on the North side of the entrance to the beach.
• No umbrellas. We are not a hotel. We are a condominium. It would be a very bad idea to get umbrellas. In fact it would be a headache of gigantic proportions.
• There would still be enough cabanas lined up in the back if one wants to sit under one.
• The main problem with people not wanting to give up their cabanas is because of the easy access to the chase lounges stored in them.
• I can see the beach from my terrace. If there are 2 or 3 cabanas open at any given day, it is a lot.
These are several wonderful ideas about the beach. They come from an owner. Obviously she has given serious thought about the beach. Open discussion leads to good decisions. Notice that there was no name calling and pointed fingers. There is only a possible solution. I don’t agree with all of her points but to me the important thing is the discussion. Cooperation and collaboration will follow.
