M. Cadden, Administradora Las Palomas Subject: 2012 Budget – No Assessment Increase Listed below you will find Assumptions used in the development of the budget for 2012. This will be the template we will use going forward that will contain greater detail and dovetails with our monthly financial report. The data for the report is primarily actual income and expenses for 2011 taken from the 10/31/11 financial report. This is the budget approved by the Surveillance Committee Line item comments: • 3001 – This is the income if 100% of the units paid • Next line – Shows actual income received except for months January, February and December where we used an average. Shows @ 71.5% of units are paying • 3990 – Shows income not received • 3020 – The expression “over fees” is used to describe late fees which are 3% of the balance due • 3050 – Is the 3.5% of rental fee received from OLP • 3055 – Is the fee collected for Bracelet sales to guests, described as Rental Impact Fee on ALP financials • 4011 – shows 5% contribution to reserves • 4040 – It is our understanding that there won’t be a payment to the Master Association • Utilities – Reflect cost in 2011 • Operating Expense – Reflect cost in 2011 • General Repair and Maintenance – Reflect cost in 2011 • Gate Expenses – Were no expenses allocated specifically to Gates in 2011 • Pool Expenses – Reflect cost in 2011 • Landscape Expenses – Reflect cost in 2011 • Administrative Expenses – Reflect cost in 2011 (some exceptions) – – 4710 Management fee is based on percent of units paying 71.5% 4725 Fee for coupon booklets Employees – We have split the employee costs 50% each for each phase. This is an adjustment from the actual expenses for 2011 wherein Phase I was paying a higher percentage of the costs for employees. Employee costs are approximately 40% of this budget. We can answer questions regarding the budget at the February meetings. Sincerely, F. Michael Cadden Date: February 8, 2012 To: Las Palomas Phase II Homeowners From: F. M.

Employee Costs are approximately 40% of the budget We can answer questions regarding the budget at the February meetings. Sincerely, F. Michael Cadden QUESTIONS AND SUGGESTIONS • • • • • • Suggest HOA set aside areas in each phase for storage of trailers or vehicles. According CCRs we are designated a space per unit. HOA could charge nominal fee of $20 per month for space usage to store a vehicle. Is Cadden-Ramirez Management bonded (security Bond) for financial misappropriation and, if so, in what amount and what is the deductible amount? Who is the underwriter? The same question re ALP and OLP Regarding the relationship between home owners and the new management at Las Palomas: A) Is the contract between the HOA and ALP (Cadden Ramirez Management) available for home owners to obtain and review? Will it be posted on the Wiki site in the near future? B) Is the contract based on cost-plus calculations or lump sum or is it done at cost with the only remuneration being $20.00 per door? C) Having reviewed the regulations of LP HOA, Article 70, subsections I and VII refer to the requirement of a bond to ensure the performance of the administrator. Had we obtained the required bond in the past with WWG and ensured it was kept current, the insurer/bond issuer would have been responsible for the removal of WWG and the payment of any and all costs to the extent of the value of the bond. This preventative measure could have saved the home owners millions of dollars and the headache of all the negotiations to remove WWG. Will we be requesting bonds from Cadden Community Management, Cadden Ramirez Management and/or ALP? Regarding the Surveillance Committee: A) Could we be provided with a brief background/skill sets of the SC members? It would seem that the needs at LP are changing and so perhaps different or additional qualifications should be considered for those who serve. It would be good for voters to have a chance to review who is running before they vote. B) In order to ensure fairness to both rental owners and non-rental owners, does the makeup of the SC reflect that? My question is: how many on the SC are in the rental pool? Again referring to Article 70, the SC has an important responsibility, namely, "power and duties" and it would be prudent to have a correlating percentage of representation. Also, whether SC members are multiple owners could become a factor in any future negotiations with WWG if they are under pressure due to their own situation (be it financial or otherwise). Upcoming Maintenance: A) Could you explain the process of bidding on projects within the work schedule for the re-building and on-going maintenance of the resort? How do you ensure confidentiality and fairness? For example, will we have a bid depository set up to guaranty that sealed tenders from suppliers and sub-contractors of the resort are submitted on a deadline and opened at the same time under the supervision of the SC? In the past, on Sandy Beach, there have been rumored a number of instances of these types of bids being compromised. • • • • • • Observations and Budget Questions: A) I see that new beach towels are now available and have been distributed to rental units. Also, last fall there was a lot of preparation for the volleyball tournament that included heavy equipment prepping the beach area for several days. Where did the funds come from for these items? Recovering past HOA fees: A) It will be interesting to hear of the 5-year plan and the strategies for getting homeowners up-to-date with their HOA dues. I hope that there can be a restriction of employees of the administrator from renting from owners who do not have their HOAs current. There are many owners here at LP who are current with their HOAs and would love to have a long-term renter. Federal Zone: A) I have voiced concerns before about the amount we are billed for the federal zone. Interestingly, during this past Christmas, we met for the first time (a guest of a guest) someone who happened to mention that he holds the concession of federal lands that adjoins the 20 meter concession that LP has, which extends from our property line toward the ocean. He operates the jet skis in front of LP and acquired the concession from the property line of Phase 1/Puerto Privada extending to the outside border of Phase 3. For this 20 meter width by the length of all of LP property, he says he pays approximately $3500.00 USD per year. We, on the other hand, are paying, in the 2012 year, $9,900 (item 4767 of phase 1) plus $9,048 (item 4767 of phase 2) for a total of almost $19,000 USD for about 2/3 of the amount of beach. This budget line item in 2010 was zero but showed up as a budget item in Dec 2011 with $4583.00 for Phase 1 and $4622.00 for Phase 2. In summary, this item has gone from $0 to almost $19,000.00 in a matter of two years. Would the SC please check into this budget item and verify that the facturas are indeed federal billings and not invoices that have been excessively marked-up by a third party. The discrepancies do not seem to be valid. I'd like to know if Las Palomas has discontinued repaying us 10% of our rental income, for those of us who are still owed money. We would like to nominate Doug Kiley J 308 to the Surveillance committee Are there going to be rules implemented to prevent the squatters in Coronado 207 from being allowed to reside in our facility without paying rent? We understand these people are Isabel's (who used to work in the HOA) parents and the owners of Coronado 207 felt secure in renting to a relative of someone who works in the HOA. These people park outside the gate and walk in - as a matter of fact Isabel was seen visiting her parents just a day or two ago. We also understand there is a condo in phase one with the same problem If the word gets out on the beach we allow this it will severely impact the value of our property. • • • • • • • • • • • • • • What is being done about the people that haven't paid their monthly dues from the beginning, and are still being allowed to use their condos? Several large PALM TREES have recently died on the property. Are there plans to replace these trees. Don't the rocks that replaced plants placed near the pool in Phase I pose a danger if someone slips and falls? The prior ground cover was a lot less dangerous. These rocks are placed right near the steps in the negative edge pool. Is the water leaking in the garage of Diamante Building fresh water or sewer water? In either case it’s a health hazard. Doesn’t anyone notice this? Since we have changed the TV from Dish network to Direct TV the service seems to have many mechanical breakdowns and poor service. Stations and channels seem to default and shut down every few days Why if this is a new service is the Direct TV signal not high definition? Why do we have OUTDATED EQUIPMENT if we just signed a new contract? What is preventing getting more Direct TV channels? How are we going to handle the delinquent owners including banks and WWG? Can we cut off the TV, phone, and water to their condos and prevent them from driving through the gate and using the facilities? Also, can they be prohibited from renting if in the rental pool if they are not current? What the plan is for repairing missing tile by the pool bar, repairing the broken jacuzzi (for 10 months now) and other maintenance items around the resort? I would like to know why we aren’t informed when water is going to be shut off. This continues to happen every 2 months or so. It is frustrating waking up and not having water to shower but it sure makes me appreciate those who never have the luxury of running water and heated water on top of that. I’d enjoy knowing timeframe for updating gym with working equipment and not just semirepaired equipment. I guess if I was truly specific here, it would be when is the upright bicycle going to be replaced with a working model and the missing one replaced? When can we expect first newsletter? I would like to know the Status of the Installation of Additional Security Cameras in the Garages. I park in Phase II, S-2, and Continue to have Theft & Theft Attempt issues, mostly during sleeping hours, the latest Attempt was last week when Leather Seats in my UTV were detached & loosened for quicker theft. Since there are no recourse for these Thefts, I would like the Surveillance Committee to consider Lie Detector Tests for Security Personnel, related to Theft Issues, which would probably require a signed Agreement with the worker. We depend upon this Personnel to watch over our Belongings, not use their Job here as a License to Steal. I would like a Non-Disclosure Agreement in place with Personnel at Las Palomas that they will not Disclose to others in town the location of any persons Residence and/or Ownership in Rocky Point. There is definitely a certain Stigma attached to owning property in Sandy Beach in General, which could put one at Persona Risk or at the very least, financial disadvantage for purchases or Business Negotiations. Disclosing ones Residence Location and/or Ownership at Las Palomas should be a personal preference, not disclosed by those privileged to work here.
