Coffee with the Manager

October 26, 2011 - Informational summary "Coffee with the Manager" on October 26, 2011.
Balcony Floor Replacements
 | | Playa del Mar Balcony Railing |  | | Balcony Floor Replacements | Enough residents have signed up to have their balcony floors replaced (needed 50). However, no balcony floor can be completed until the issue of responsibility for the peeling paint on the balcony rails is settled.
Pool Deck
 | | Playa del Mar Pool Deck | Many owners present (and by email) complained about the condition of the pool deck - especially how bad it looks since being painted (paint is peeling and holds water that turns into mold), the furniture, and sparseness. All the older pool furniture (on the Promenade Deck) has been repainted and some of it will be moved to the pool deck. Some greenery (that was planned for the North Deck) will be moved to the pool deck. The new Decorating/Landscape Committee will look at options for improving the pool deck and dealing with the cracks under the deck. No action will be taken without an overall plan and owners? input into the final decision.
Building Concrete Restoration
The board will approve a contractor to start the concrete restoration on the outside of the building. It is estimated the project will take between 20-30 weeks (yes, scaffolding and work around our building). This is the first priority of the board. Almost daily, we find new cracks or more water damage.
Hall Carpet
The question was raised about replacing the hallway carpet. It is in the five year plan for the building, but other pressing issues (concrete restoration, cement cracks and the 40-year inspections) will take priority.
40-Year Inspection
The board plans to have an engineer review the 40-year inspection requirements and complete the upgrade to pass the inspection prior to receiving notice of the actual inspection. That way the building can be repaired over the next three years - and not under the pressure of a failed inspection.
Monthly Cup of Java!
Coffee with the Manager will occur monthly - as a way of communicating with owners and allowing them to ask questions and get answers.
