TOP HOA BOARD PROPOSED PROJECTS

Our HOA board is considering spending between $400,000  to  $500,000 on one of 2 projects to “update and modernize” Desert Princess.  The cost to each homeowner for either of these projects would equate to   $27.64  to $34.54 of our current monthly dues.  
 
These are the projects the board is focusing on:

• A complete update of the Fitness/Spa center
  or
• A new outdoor patio extension for the restaurant
  
  

The board has already spent over $50,000 on architectural designs and has even submitted a set of plans to the City for approval.
 
This Raises the Following Questions:

• Does the board intend to spend the majority of our increased homeowner’s dues for beautification rather than the needed and necessary maintenance/repairs?

 

• Will either of these investments generate enough revenue to offset the money spent?
  
  
• Will the board make architectural plans available to all homeowners to see how our money will being spent? 

 

• Will either of these projects reduce the amount our dues that currently subsidize the Country Club and Fitness/Spa center each month? 
  
  
• Should we be considering a restaurant project when the restaurant has irregular hours, continues to generate less than pre-Covid revenues and continues to operate at a loss?
  
  
• Why are we considering the fitness center redesign when we only have 10-15 people a day using the facilities?
