MANAGER'S REPORT
JUNE 20TH, 2013
Duane Thomas Inc. has completed the maintenance repairs on the roof.
I met with an Elevator renovation company
to inquire about options to improve the cab of the IBC elevators. The
information received has been passed on the Elevator Renovation
committee.
I have obtained comparative bids for pool
heater replacement and have forwarded them to the Board for their
review.
I have obtained comparative bids for the
rail pocket concrete repairs and have forwarded them to the Board for
their review.
Shoremans pest control has started to
treat the trees for Spiraling White Flies.
InterKleen has started to clean and
prepare the patio furniture for summer storage.
Jose is busy working on the pool
enclosure walls removing chipped paint and preparing the walls to be
repainted as well as many other maintenance projects to keep the IBC
looking pristine.
Courtesy Services has completed all of
the heavy pruning of the shrubs. There will be some plant material
that will need replacing. Don will provide a proposal for this work.

2013
Duanne Thomas Inc. has done roof
inspections on both buildings and has provided a proposal for several
items that need attention. The proposal has been forwarded to the BOD
for their review.
Sunshine Locksmith has installed thumb
turns in the community room and the gym to allow locking and unlocking
of the sliding glass doors from the inside. This will prevent people
from accidently being locked inside in the future.
Courtesy services (landscapers) have done
all of the heavy pruning of the shrubs on the property as requested.
The “Private Property” signs are ready
for pick up from Sign-A-Rama.
The pool heater is not working again. The problem with the pool heater is that the igniters keep going out (three in the past month). This may be caused by something internal coming in contact with the igniter. The only way to know for sure would be to completely disassemble the heater. This will take a couple of hours and may or may not reveal a reasonable fix. There is a possibility that there could be $400 to find something that isn't worth repairing before proceeding with the work. This is also an off brand unit and most parts are not readily available locally.
A replacement comparable to what is there now would be $4,278.73, installed. This would include bronze headers, a cupro nickel (salt water) heat exchanger and 88% efficiency rating.
Another option is a unit that also has
bronze headers, a cupro nickel (salt water) heat exchanger but has a
95% efficiency rating. This would be $7,969.73, installed.
Spiral White Flies have been a big
problem in S. Florida. We have been trying to keep them away on an as
needed basis, this approach is not working. I have forwarded proposals
to the Board of Directors for Spiral White Fly protection. The
proposals are for semi-annual service and call backs are included.
I met with T.E Lunn engineering RE: the
rail pockets. He will provide a quote for specs on how the rail
pockets should be addressed. I have a second engineer scheduled for
5-27-13 with ONMJ engineers. They have done work at IBC in the past.
Jose has been busy painting areas where owners have had hurricane shutters removed as a result of impact glass installation. He built a step inside the pool equipment enclosure as previous to the step there was two foot step down to get in or out of the enclosure and has been busy with maintenance projects that keep the IBC looking great.

2013
Courtesy Services has started the summer
pruning of the shrubs. Don’t be alarmed if you see several areas of
shrubs with no green on them. This is normal, they will grow back
quickly.
There were a couple of complaints about
the cleanliness of the water line tiles and corners of the surface of
the pool. A meeting was had between myself, an owner/board member and
Gary from North Palm Pool Service. Gary will pay particular attention
to these areas in the future.
Two people have accidently been locked
inside the exercise room. Sunshine Locks was scheduled to install
thumb turns/handles to allow locking/unlocking of the community room
and exercise room. When he arrived to do the install he realized that
the parts he was sent to install were not long enough to pass through
the sliding door. He is expecting to receive the correct parts this
week.
The question “Does Chlorine kill e coli?”
was raised at a recent Board of Directors meeting. The answer is yes “free
chlorine kills most bacteria such as E.
coli 0157:H7 in less than
a minute if it is maintained at proper disinfection levels”.
A chlorine disinfection timetable can be found here…

South Florida is having a terrible time
battling Spiral White Fly. At IBC we have tried to do it on an “as
needed” basis. Unfortunately this is not getting the job done. A
proposal for semi-annual preventative treatment has been provided by
Florida Environmental and has been forwarded to the BOD for their
review.
Subsequent note: Property
Manager will research this quote further as it does not appear to be
in line with the cost of prior work done. He will also advise

A narrow strip of grass was replaced in
front of the Green Island Ficus hedge on the South lawn. The grass was
damaged from salt Due to Tropical Storm Sandy.
Courtesy services installed more plants
near the sides of the entrance gate to deter pedestrians from walking
around the gates.
A gas line was found to be leaking near the gas meter. This line was the feed line to the BBQ Grills. Florida Public Utilities found the leak and capped the line. It was determined the entire run from the meter to the BBQ Grills was in poor condition with more than one leak. The original line was abandoned and new lines were installed.
Several months ago a lightning strike
killed 2 coconut palm trees on the east side of the 140 building. The
3rd tree at that location
looks like it will also need to be removed.
Jose will be working in the shower of the
mens room near the gym. There is evidence of a leak in the shower
wall.
There have been several complaints about
the man gate locking system. I am exploring options with the
locksmith.
The balcony above the community
room/office area is showing signs of concrete spalling. A proposal for
the repairs has been forwarded to the Board of Directors for their
review.
Several balconies and second/third floor walkways are showing evidence of water intrusion in the concrete. It has been determined that the hand rail pockets are holding water. A solution and proposal has been forwarded to the Board of Directors for their review.

World Class Landscape has trimmed all of the
coconut palm trees as well as a trim and shellac of the Sylvester Palm
that stands between building 120 and 140. The Sylvester Palm Tree
really looks outstanding!
The Board of Directors has decided to
make some changes to The Inlet Beach Club website. PC Medics is
working on some ideas to enhance the site.
The new BBQ grills have been installed by Jose.
We have noticed some areas around the
buildings that show concrete spalling/damage. Duane Thomas Inc. has
been doing the repairs as needed.
The new entry/exit gates are
now operational. The new gates work with the same tele-entry system so
all clickers, codes etc. work as they did with the previous barrier
arms system.
We did lose one guest space at the entrance which
could not be avoided. A proposal for protection in the way of yellow
bollards like at the call box to protect the operator at the exit gate
and the entry gate in the open position has been forwarded to the BOD
for their review.
Jose has installed the Christmas lights at
the north side of the property. He also installed the brick pavers at
the new walk gate as well as several other projects that keep the IBC
looking fresh.
Jose will take a vacation from December
21st-25th returning to work Wednesday December 26th.
Inter
Kleen has done the pressure washing of the walkways, grilling area and
pool deck.
Courtesy Services has provided a proposal to
replace/fill in the Green Island Ficus and Juniper that was damaged
due to Hurricane Sandy.

Jose has been working diligently to keep the
Inlet Beach Club looking fresh by pressure washing and painting the
hallways, paint/stucco repairs on the pool enclosure wall and other
various projects.
The new grills have been delivered. They are
currently being stored in the garage until Jose is finished with
painting the walkways.
The new gates are coming along well. The
concrete sidewalk has been poured and carpenter security expects to be
fully operational by the end of this week.
Along with Tropical
Storm Sandy came very high tides and large waves. We suffered some
landscape damage on the grass in front of the pool and along the bike
path as well as the Green Island Ficus hedge in front of the 140
building. The Ficus hedge has been stood back up and the roots have
been topped with new soil to mend then back to shape.
Tropical
irrigation has installed an irrigation system in the elevator towers
to aid in better care of the planters.
The repairs to the
parapet wall on unit 303 have been completed by Duane Thomas Inc.

The new pressure washer has been purchased.
Jose was able to salvage the hose and wand from the old machine. The
damaged machine was left at Home Depot. Home Depot did return the cost
of the extended warranty (which was applied to the new machine) and
offered a 25% discount on the new machine.
Jose has been busy
pressure washing the walkways and surrounding areas to prepare for
paint. He has also been busy repainting all entry doors. He is also
working on pressure washing the pool walls where the paint is chipping
to prepare for new paint.
The kitchen air conditioner was
found inoperable. A/C Energy and Electric found the drain pan full of
water and the drain was plugged. The unit is working properly.
The gates are installed. They are not operational yet. Carpenter
Security will let me now their schedule. He expects one day next week.

SEPTEMBER 6, 2012
The cable on the Golds Gym machine was
damaged. A new cable was ordered and installed.
Mercurio
Construction completed the repairs to unit 307 door frame and
replacement of the man door to the 120 garage.
A fire sprinkler
pipe that supplies the 140 building was leaking. J.W. Fire Sprinkler
did the repairs. See attached photos.
Fence Crafters had a
delay building our gates. They expect the gates to be built and in
powder coat this week (9/5/12). They foresee installation in 2 weeks.
The valves for the grills are still on back order. They were
ordered 2/27/12. The “expected stock date is 9/3 but cannot be
confirmed”.
Several plants suffered wind burn from TS Isaac. We
expect with a trim they will recover. No major damage has been
reported from the storm.
We are experiencing damage in the turf
due to Grubs. Florida Environmental has been advised and they are
treating accordingly.
A report of a water leak on the balcony
of unit 303 was inspected by Duane Thomas. A crack in the exterior
wall above was noted. Duane Thomas Inc. has provided a proposal.
The pressure cleaner was sent out for a second opinion. Both
engine shops said the cause of failure was low oil. Jose said he
filled it with oil when it was purchased and had only used it 4 times.
They have offered to refund the cost of the 3 year warranty that was
purchased and 25% off the purchase of a new pressure washer.
