Thanks for your compliments on the courses!
We have
subsidized golf, and will continue to do so. Between 2007 and 2010 the
subsidy ranged from $1,264,000 to $1,529,000. For the 2013 to 2015
timeframe, we expect to catch up on some needed maintenance/renovation
work and the subsidies will reach $2,353,000 in 2014.
As
far as the bonuses for golf course workers, I wish we could do that.
However, I might say that workers in all departments of the POA go
above and beyond the call of duty on a regular basis to ensure we have
all the services needed for property owners. Separating the golf
workers from all others might not seem fair.
After
two years of no raises for POA employees in 2010 and 2011, we allowed
an average increase of 5% for 2012, and are reviewing plans for a 2%
cost of living increase next year. We have had some criticism of those
actions, so you know. Also, the Board is certainly not saving the money
for raises for itself...
Thanks for your email.
