FCC White Paper Report

• When projects like the fitness center, cabana, and patio dining were added as new amenities, they were downsized from the original designs to gain member support for project budgets. This has resulted in less-than-optimal outcomes in a relatively short time period, with current demand exceeding available capacity. • These projects helped FCC remain competitive as some new and existing members might have purchased homes elsewhere if we did not have amenities like the fitness center, pickleball, patio dining, and a cabana, which are standard at competing clubs. • As these amenities are updated in the future per the Master Plan, they will be more expensive than if the project scope was not reduced when initially constructed • As we consider future facility improvement projects, the membership must ensure that capital projects are sized and funded in a manner that considers both current and expected utilization.

20. Will club services be disrupted during renovations?

Answer:

• Yes, undertaking a project of this size will create disruption and restrict usage during major construction. Minimizing those impacts and completing work in a reasonable time will be an important goal. Once undertaken, the work should be completed without delay.

• The gatehouse construction should not disrupt access to our community.

• The club will work with the contractor on a construction schedule to minimize the impact on members. Temporary facilities may ensure continued enjoyment of clubhouse amenities, but some activities and events can be adjusted based on conditions during construction progress.

21. When will the renovation work begin?

Answer: The possible project of the clubhouse and gatehouse will not begin until 2027 after the Long Mean Renovation is completed, which is projected to be the end of 2026.
