Summary Maui Vista AOAO Amenities Survey Final Report

November 23, 2021

Background: The Amenities Committee was formed and approved by the AOAO Board in June 2021 with Tina Evans and Tara Wells as co-chairs of the Committee. There were seven owners on the Committee, representing all three buildings. Following guidelines and directives from the AOAO Board, a survey of potential changes to Maui Vista amenities was developed.

The survey was distributed to owners on September 28, 2021. A status report for the amenities survey based on 104 respondents (38% of owners) was presented to the Board at the November 6, 2021 AOAO Annual Meeting. The survey was closed on November 18, 2021, at which time responses had been received from 152 owners (52% of owners).

Question 1: One of the concerns raised by the Board and by the Committee was how representative was the owner response sample? Was there bias in the survey? Did only owners who wanted changes to the amenities respond to the survey?

Question 2: How many tennis courts are needed at Maui Vista?

Question 3: What other recreation amenities do we need?

Question 4: What gathering amenities should be provided at Maui Vista?

As noted previously, the repeatability of the results based on comparing the Status Report and Final Report indicates the survey result is representative of all owners. The internal consistency of responses to each of the questions demonstrates the validity of the questionnaire, with approximately 15% of the respondents wanting no changes and 85% of the respondents wanting some enhanced amenities. In addition, these percentages varied little from question to question.

Annual Message from the Maui Vista AOAO President

To all Maui Vista Owners

The annual Maui Vista Homeowners meeting was held on Tennis Court 1 on 6 November 2021 with approximately 40 owners in physical attendance. Many other owners were electronically connected via Zoom or by telephone.

The Board of Directors appreciates the effort owners have made to be current in their maintenance fee and assessments for the parking lot project. While we were able to retain the 2020 maintenance fees for 2021, the rising cost of many items plus general maintenance requirements for our aging property has resulted in a 10.6% increase in the 2022 maintenance fees. The fees for both 2021 and 2022 are given below.

Your unit designation is listed on the Maui Vista property declaration, available on the AOAO Maui Vista web site. For owners who have their maintenance fees paid with ACH automatic bank withdrawal, the adjustment will be automatic. All others will have to make whatever arrangements are necessary. Please ensure that these arrangements are completed by 1 January 2022 to eliminate extra bookkeeping.

A year ago we were faced with many uncertainties: the pandemic, the many projects put “on hold”, the retirement of our general manager, Victoria Reyes, and the appointment of a new general manager, Jerel Haley. While the slow variable recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic continues to impact both the economy and activities on Maui, the Board of Directors feels that we have “weathered the storm” although there is still much to be done. We have completed several of the projects that had been previously delayed. Many of these projects are summarized in the draft minutes of the Homeowners meeting. These will shortly be available in the owner section of the AOAO Maui Vista web site: https://www.aoaomauivista.org. The password is vista2191.

Many owners have expressed their appreciation for the excellent management shown by Mr. Jerel Haley. He has “stepped up to the plate” and his efforts have certainly improved the overall appearance of Maui Vista as well as the general feeling of aloha now in the front office. His continual e-mail messages to all owners on Projects, Plans and Problems have been well received. We are very fortunate to have such a committed person as our General Manager. I want to personally thank Jerel for his dedication, and I invite owners to continue to support his efforts in making Maui Vista a place of which we are all proud and a place where aloha abounds.

Aloha and good wishes for a healthy and happy year in 2022,

Peggy Ann Shea, President
