Statement from the WEA Board of Directors
For more than 50 years, Waterville Estates has been a thriving community for families to relax, vacation and build lasting memories. Over the past few years, our country and community has seen great challenges due to the pandemic. Although the road ahead is uncertain and will potentially have many unforeseen obstacles, this board is committed to making your experience at Waterville Estates better
than ever. We will be focused on enhancing your family and community experience. We are excited to bring back long-time family and adult events to the community.
This Board will be focused on being creative. We will be innovative and progressive in implementing new ideas and approaches. To that end, the BOD is enacting several significant enhancements for 2022. We are very excited to
announce that WEA has engaged with the nation’s premier HOA management and consulting company, Evergreen Management Group. Evergreen and its affiliate companies work with more than 10,000 communities across the nation including HOA’s, resort/leisure communities, municipal utility districts, and commercial developments. Evergreen’s initial mandate is to work with the BOD manage the
business aspects of the HOA. With this transition, WEA expects to realize $80,000 in reduced annual operating expenses. You will soon be receiving communication from Evergreen regarding their role and outlining the benefits and features of their services and technology.
We are also introducing enhanced Owner Pass, Owner Guest Pass, and Summit lounge access policies.
We have increased the adult Owner Passes to 6 per household instead of 4. These passes must be designated to an adult family member only. See attached for details. Owners will be provided unlimited Youth Owner Passes for children 17 and under.
For those who have unaccompanied third-party guests using the Community Center, owners will have to purchase at least one yearly “Owner Guest Pass” for $500 each for access to the Community Center.
The pass will admit one person. However, that pass holder will be able to purchase additional daily passes for other people in their party.
The Summit Lounge, deck, and outside bar will be open to the public after 6pm. non-pass holders will be able to have access to the Summit Lounge to enjoy dinner and refreshments. Guests will not need to purchase a daily pass after 6pm to access the lounge and deck. However, these non-pass patrons will
not have access to any other parts of the community center including the pool and gym.
Below are some questions that will help clarify our new policies. Thank you for your support. We look forward to a great 2022!!
