Messages from Candidates
Two of the candidates in this election, John Rothengast and Phil Hewett, have been making strides to share their messages via video with the residents of their community. These messages vary in topic from past accomplishments to personal history with the community to future plans for continued neighborhood improvements.
A History of Progress
Throughout their tenure as directors and as President (Hewett) and Vice President (Rothengast), these two volunteers have worked with the Board of Directors to achieve financial solvency, infrastructure improvement, and project innovations.
The Jewel of the Harbour
Numerous realtors have shared that the new Harbour Club, slated to be completed in summer of 2025, will be the Jewel of the Harbour, enticing new residents and increasing property values. Waylaid for many years, the Harbour Club project was one of the main goals and objectives of Hewett and Rothengast when they won their first term on the board.
A Path Forward
Going forward, growth and improvement will be essential for this established but aging infrastructure community. Phil Hewett and John Rothengast have shared their commitment to continuing those infrastructure improvements, achieving self-sufficient profit centers, and continuing with innovative projects such as the private Fiber network to increase security and the strength of the neighborhood.
