JOINT Informational Meeting March 8, 2011
Sponsored by Board Treasurer and the Planning & Development Committee

The meeting was held in the Ballroom from 9:30 am to about 11:45 am.  About 250 were in attendance. 

In regard to the meeting, one owner (Dick Greener #769) stated in a email:
"As I sat there and heard each of the speakers talk about the different aspects of the maintenance and capital improvements that will keep Golden Vista the choice retirement park in AJ, I was so impressed with the quality and depth of information that was available.   What a breath of fresh air to hear what is needed and why and what the priority should be with all the main people together and sharing the moment.   The Board, the P&D committee, supporting committees and the resort manager, all working together in clear easy to understand terms to present the GV story to keep our resort a highly desirable park to own and reside in.  This is the first time in the 17 years I have been in Golden Vista that I have witnessed this kind of team work with positive enthusiasm that will result in a renewed support from the vast majority of our residents.  Congratulations to those who have created this opportunity."
