'A Total Team Effort' - A message from the General Manager
Tuesday, July 7, 2020
The following column was part of the summer 2020
Ocean Pines Report
quarterly newsletter:
John Viola
One year ago, we closed our fiscal year with an operating fund $130,584 favorable to budget. Total revenues for the fiscal year were roughly $263,000 over what was budgeted, and total expenses were close to
$309,000 under budget. The numbers are unaudited at this time, but if we have no major audit adjustments, this would be one of our best years. I attribute this to a total team effort.
We have completed two major initiatives. The Clubhouse at the Golf Course, which is a multi-purpose building, was completed approximately $105,000 under budget. The cart barn was also completed approximately $120,000 under budget.
The Police Station and Administration building are on track to be completed this summer and under budget. The Northstar software system implementation period has been extended due to the amount of customization.
Since COVID-19 came onto our radar, Ocean Pines has worked to follow federal, state and local guidelines, closing many of our facilities and suspending programs and events. Over the last several weeks we have opened within guidelines our Food & Beverage operations, Golf, Aquatics, Racquet Sports and most recently, Recreation & Parks. The Administration building reopened Friday, June 19.
I announced two promotions in the month of June. Debbie Donahue was promoted to Director of Recreation & Parks, reporting to me. Kathleen Cook was promoted to Director of Aquatics and will continue to report to Colby Phillips, Director of Amenities and Operational Logistics.
We are in a time of unpredictable challenges. We implemented a com- munication plan to address the changing environment. Our plans to open our amenities have gone well. I want to compliment the members of our Association who understand the situation and have helped with the success.
The bulkhead program in the Wood Duck area is scheduled for completion mid-June. I am proud of our team who have jump started after several years, drainage, dredging and bulkhead work, all within budget parameters.
