SAND & SURF NEEDS YOUR HELP

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS, RESORT MANAGER AND STAFF AT SAND & SURF WORK DILIGENTLY TO PROTECT SAND & SURF PROPERTY, HOWEVER, OWNERS AND GUESTS MUST MEET THEIR RESPONSIBILITIES IF WE ARE
TO MAINTAIN THE PROPERTY AND PREVENT INCIDENTS OF A RISK MANAGEMENT AND/OR FINANCIAL NATURE.

CONTINUED INCIDENTS OF DISREGUARD FOR RULES AND REGULATIONS COULD VERY WELL RESULT IN AN INCREASE IN INSURANCE FEES, REPAIRS AND REPLACEMENT OF COMMON AREA FURNITURE AND EQUIPMENT, STRUCTURAL REPAIRS, AS WELL AS THE WEEKLY MAINTENANCE WHEN UNITS ARE LEFT IN SHAMBLES. ANY OF THESE TYPES OF INCIDENTS COULD RESULT IN HIGHER MAINTENANCE FEES. THE BOARD WOULD LIKE TO KEEP THE ANNUAL FEES AS REASONABLE AS POSSIBLE AND CONTINUE TO MAKE THE NEEDED IMPROVEMENTS RATHER THAN COVERING COSTS OF NEGLIGENCE.
WE NEED YOUR HELP!!!!
IDENTIFIABLE OWNERS AND GUESTS WHO ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR INCIDENTS
ARE CHARGED FOR REPLACEMENTS AND REPAIRS, BUT THERE ARE MANY INCIDENTS THAT ARE NOT REPORTED OR UNIDENTIFIED INDIVIDUALS THAT CONTINUE TO BE COSTLY. MANY INCIDENTS COULD RESULT IN SAND & SURF BEING FINED BY HEALTH DEPARTMENT, FIRE MARSHALL OR OTHER STATE AND LOCAL AGENCIES. WE DO NOT WANT THIS TO HAPPEN!!!!

WATCH FOR THE FOLLOWING:

POOL/DECK AREA: Glass containers (Bottles, cups, dishes) are brought on to pool deck;
Cozies with glass containers are not acceptable. (State Law prohibits glass on pool deck); Pool rope is abused with sitting, standing, causing Stretching and breakage (State Law mandates rope);
Pool Gate left open for any stranger to come on to property (Insurance liability)
Children left unattended/unsupervised at Pool ( InsuranceLiability)
WALKWAYS/ENTRANCES: Toys, rafts, beach chairs and other items left outside units on walkways are fire/safety hazard (Fire Marshall: owner can be fined).
PARKING LOT: Bicycles, motorcycles parked in unauthorized areas or stored in units
Use of parking lot as a playground (Insurance liability)
UNIT OCCUPANCY: Unauthorized guest arriving for check in or authorized guest not registering all occupants in unit. (Fire/Safety, Defrauding Innkeeper & Insurance)
UNIT PAPER PRODUCTS: Units are adequately stocked for a weeks stay. To keep maintenance fees as low as possible no additional paper products will be issued.
EMERGENCY REPORTING: Incidents not reported in a timely manner result in inability to identify individual responsible for incident. ONLY IF INCIDENTS ARE REPORTED IMMEDIATELY CAN ACTION BE TAKEN BY MANAGEMENT OR POLICE.
PLEASE USE EMERGENCY NUMBERS POSTED IN BLUE BINDER!!!!
