Below is an update that I sent to our owners today.

Dear Fellow Bayfront Owners,
I need to update you on two items.

First, Jerry Gill, our maintenance man for the last three years, has unexpectedly turned in his resignation to Lina. Jerry brought to us a good skill set and work ethic. He has helped owners and guests in every way possible, sometimes helping them unload luggage or groceries in the rain.  We wish him well in future endeavors and hope that he has as much of a positive impact to any future employer as he did for us. Lina will begin a search for another maintenance person immediately.  She will likely have a report in her June 1st newsletter.
Secondly, our foundation repair is moving at a snail’s  pace. We had a proposal last fall from Jim Leavelle of Ureteck of Corpus Christi. We accepted his proposal and assessed owners accordingly.  Jim then informed us that his engineer required an additional $10,000 of changes. We approved that also. Then his engineer decided he needed a geologic study that could be done by a friend of his. He wanted a 30ft boring under the buildings. At that point, we decided to change course and find our own engineer to design a system of repair for us and then go out for bids from contractors. Lina is in the process of doing that now.  Our board has spent an inordinate amount of time on this, but we have learned a lot about different approaches to foundation repair.

On behalf of our board of directors I wish you all a very enjoyable summer of making memories at our beautiful complex.

Sincerely,

Larry Biggers
President
Bayfront Condos at Kontiki

Board of Directors
