President’s Message: Warm or Cooler Pool Water

Kim Fuller
President

Hello Residents,

I sent a message on 1/31/19 explaining a proposal by the Facilities Committee for the Board to consider adding a device which would cool the Santa Rosa pool water temperature during the hot summer months. This device would be able to reduce the pool temp from about 94 degrees down to 86-88 degrees. We have placed a survey online to get your opinions. The cost is about $15,000, or a onetime installation cost of $4.36 per household. This does not mean each home would be assessed $4.36, it means the money would be coming from the existing operations budget, which does have a contingency for such items if the Board choses to spend it in that way. There would be a small utility cost increase to the budget for operating the device during the summer. The proposal is to only install the water cooling system at the Santa Rosa pool. This way, during the summer we can offer one pool with warm water and one pool with cooler water, to try and accommodate everyone.

Once again, I have attached a link to fill out a survey, we need to know how you feel about proceeding on such a request. The Board decided to continue gathering information until the next Board meeting on 3/25/19.

Thank you,
