Page 4 May, 2017 Site Manager Monthly Activity Report: Aloha Board Members, Homeowners, and Richie, May was a busy month as predicted with vacationers arriving and projects being worked on, completed and new projects started. There have been more issues with the spa heater. I have continued to work on it and keep the heater running. We apologize for the down time and are looking to install a new heater system. A heater that is more efficient. Also, as a reminder June 1st is the start of Hurricane Season. It is smart to be prepared. All Owners have previously been issued an “Emergency Preparedness For Natural Disasters” document. Please read! Completed Projects: Todd (The Pool Doktor), and I took the spa heater completely apart, inspected the parts, cleaned the inside of the heater and put it back together. We made several adjustments to it and have it up and running. I received many complaints of an obnoxious rooster. I caught him and removed the rooster from the property. We have had Mitch McPeek (Zeek LLC.) fix many of the wood rot projects throughout Nihilani and is almost finished. I repaired the fallen rocks on the rock walls by the pool and Pepelani Loop. I changed the oil and oil filter in the Maintenance Truck. I placed rocks on the grass in areas that have been identified as locations where people drive on the grass the most. We hope this will stop or reduce the problem of broken sprinklers and tire marks on the grass. We had Mokihana Pest Control complete the quarterly pest control and semi-annual termite inspection. No termites were found at any of the buildings. We installed a new router for the internet connection at the pool. I painted a rubberized coating on the bed of the golf cart. We had the backflows for the water valves inspected and tested. The valves passed and are in good working order. Issues: The spa heater continues to be an issue. Ongoing Projects: Mitch McPeek is almost finished with the wood rot and corbel replacement project. Upcoming Projects: I will be cleaning all the gutters and inspecting the dryer vents. We have a concrete contractor working in June to replace the concrete slabs at the pool that are raised and could be a tripping hazard.
