It seems here lately that so many blog posts are seen by owners as more items that are going to cost bunches of money. A lot of this is the age of the complex and a lot is the failure to be proactive in repairs. This is the case with the problems with the breakwater and I will post some photos of that problem later.
The picture below is of the work on repair of the roof flashing on 712. The worker told me there never was any installed when the roof was replaced. These items should have been noticed by the property manager before the roofer was paid. My place leaks in the same area, but I just paint over the stains. This time the unit below, 708, had considerable damage from the water running inside the wall and down to 708. There will have to be HOA paid repair in that unit too.

The picture below is of the pier in the marina. Age and high tide is making this whole section unstable. This has been a Phase II item, but we may now have to share on the 60/40 basis for repair. Personally, I would not repair it. It serves no real purpose in my mind and gets in the way when docking and trailering boats. Repairing this is just like repairing our old pier, you reach a point of diminishing returns, but then no one is asking me and there are no meetings for owners to give input.
More money. Here the bulkhead for the mitigation site is falling in. This is actually on property that is for sale by our board president. However, if we don't fix it, our roadway will be in jeopardy of eroding away.
