Exciting Friday the13th.While driving in today to the Sebastian museum the rain was the hardest I have seen in awhile.I hear a tornado watch on the radio for our area. Get indoors and one of the girls in the office said we have a tornado warning.I said you sure it isn't a watch?It started to blow pretty hard and all of a sudden the rain stops and thats it.I leave to go to the DVC annual meeting a little later which was being held in the SeaGrape Room.There were a number of Emergency vehicles on US1.Still really didn't think anything happened.Doors were to open at 1:30 meeting at 2PM.It was delayed for 20 mins due to some of the DVC boardmember's being stuck on SR 510 due to a tornado touching down.
(Sr 510 is the road over Orchid Island straight across US1 connecting to SR512 to I95).
Meeting only lasted about 20 min.Normal board stuff.Most info has already been mentioned from other resort meetings.The chairman had a great sense of humor. Wizzed through theboring stuff. Nothing much new and exciting going on at VB in 2003.Dues increased 4.9%.Most of that from health benifit increases for cast members.Property insurance only added a small amount.Property tax increase is adding a whopping .006%/ pt. increase in dues.
Villa doors being repainted and roof air conditioning inlets being replaced.That was about it.Nothing new that hasn't been already reported about Saratoga Springs.They said they are still deciding what they are going to do with all the buildings at DI. One member asked about the rumor of an iceskating rink.The chairman of the board said "wait to you see what would happen to your dues there if that is the case".Everyone laughed.He said that is definitely out of the question.Meeting was adjorned.will report on further VB info later.
