Membership Vote: Approval of Clubhouse Rebuild Budget (Max. $2.5M)

After extensive research, community collaboration, and expert consultation, the Clubhouse Committee is ready to present the next step in the future of our community space.

We are officially calling a membership vote to approve a maximum project budget of $2.5 million to rebuild the Ocean Beach Unit 2 Clubhouse.

What You’re Voting On:

Approval to proceed with a full rebuild of the Clubhouse, based on the findings and recommendations shared in the June 2025 Clubhouse Presentation and the Summary of Findings report. This includes:

  • Authorization to borrow funds not to exceed $2.5 million
  • Financial commitment options for each homeowner:
    • One-time lump sum: Approximately $5,000 — OR —
    • 20-year amortization: Approximately $42/month (paid annually)
  • Final loan terms will be optimized before drawdown (interest rate re-evaluated every 5 years, payoff options available)

Why This Vote Matters:

The existing structure has reached the end of its useful life:

  • Structural deterioration confirmed by experts
  • Continued flood risks unresolved
  • Repair or elevation options ruled out as unfeasible or unsafe

A new, reimagined Clubhouse will offer:

  • Improved accessibility
  • Expanded outdoor gathering spaces
  • Family-friendly features (e.g., kayak racks, kids’ activities)
  • Opportunities for additional revenue generation (through events, rentals, etc.)

Voting Details:

The Ocean Beach & Yacht Club Board of Governors will hold a special meeting on:

Saturday, July 26th @ 9 AM
Ocean Beach & Yacht Club Clubhouse

During this meeting, community members will have the opportunity to address any additional questions they may have regarding the process before holding a vote.

Those unable to attend the meeting in person may submit a proxy, pursuant to the Ocean Beach & Yacht Club Bylaws.
