Upcoming San Diego meeting and election updates

Aloha and Happy New Year!

I want to remind everyone that there is going to be an election in May for the Board of Directors of the AOBO.  There are three seats open and, as of now it appears that one person is seeking re-election so there are at least two open seats.

If you are at all interested in being a part of the operation of the AOBO, I'd like to suggest that you attend the upcoming meeting in San Diego on February 8th.  It'll give you a chance to understand what is involved in being on the AOBO Board.

Please let Marianne Thesken know if you'll be able to attend the lunch and meeting in San Diego.  The hotel is the Bay Club.  You can reach Marianne at marianne.thesken@outrigger.com.  Hope to see you then!

If you have any interest in running for the Board or have any questions, please feel free to contact me or any other Board member.

Mahalo,

Randy Danto Nordstrom
Vice-President, AOBO

Meeting recap and updated budget

Aloha to all owners at Kiahuna.  We had a wonderful visit earlier this month when the quarterly owners' meetings were held in Kauai.  We had a wonderful turnout.  Thanks to all who came!  We hope to see many more of you next time, in May!

I wanted to give you a quick recap of the highlights of the meetings and share with you the budget for next year that was approved.

First the good news:
We are hoping to be able to offer owners the option of installing an air conditioning unit into their condos soon.  The first step in that process will be to send out a Survey Monkey survey for you to voice your opinion on the idea.  That should be sent to you before Christmas.  I'll let you know when that is ready to go.

Also, Jeff Smith and the Buildings and Grounds washer/dryer subcommittee are proceeding with installing a few washer/dryers in several test units early next year.  We hope to be able to report back on their installations by the May annual meeting.

Now the not such good news:
The AOBO is going to have to start replacing roofs earlier than anticipated and the infrastructure work will need to start as well.  As a result, the monthly dues will increase by approx. $141 in 2020.  You can see the breakdown of this on the budget, which I'm attaching below.  Thanks to Dave DiMare and the AOBO staff (Faye, Chris, Marianne) for all their hard work on getting this finalized.

We wish everyone a great Thanksgiving!

Election results and upcoming meeting dates

Aloha from Kiahuna Plantation!

Thank you to all the owners who attending the meetings on site and those of you who submitted your proxies in lieu of attending.

We had an election for new Board of Directors and the following new people are on the board:

Randy Simin and Stony Anderson.
I was re-elected for another term.

We are looking forward to a very productive and successful board.  We were very sad to say Aloha to Bill Flohrs and Rick McCormick who served all of us tirelessly and with great energy!  We will miss them.

Dates have been set for upcoming meetings so you can put these dates on your calendar and hopefully attend either on island, in San Diego and/or in San Francisco.  We love having owner participation.
