Town Hall Questions and Crossroads Golf Updates

02/19/2024 1:16 PM | Richard Cedrone (Administrator)

Dear PBNA Members,

This email has two parts:

  1. A list of potential questions for SSP at Wednesday’s Town Hall
  2. An update on Crossroads Golf membership.

Town Hall Questions

Questions for SSP at the upcoming town hall

  • What is the status of the Master Planning work with Hill Howerton?  Will property owners have any input?
  • What is the expected timing for completion of a new fitness facility?
  • Will it be part of the base club?
  • Will you be commissioning an independent member survey, like the ones we used to have under prior ownership?
  • Are there plans for a traffic light at May River Road and the entrance to Palmetto Bluff?
  • Why haven’t 2022 audited financials for our POA, the PB Preservation Trust, not been posted on the Member website?
  • Your efforts to improve fitness classes has been well received but has made availability an issue.  What are your plans to address?
  • Please provide an update on Anson, the new 18-hole course, and the road to Anson.
  • We understand a group of homeowners who have poor, or no cell service has been advocating for a new cell town for over a year.  Can you provide an update?
  • Please provide an update on the ongoing disputes with the PBCA as well as the second group contesting the waiver of mandatory base club membership. 
  • The significant increases in dues and assessments are creating cash flow pain for some property owners; will you provide a quarterly payment option?
  • What are your plans for additional walking and cycling paths?

Crossroads Golf—Update/Correction

In our last newsletter (#5, distributed February 13th), we relied on the initially published rules, which we subsequently learned were updated to be less onerous for existing Golf Club members.  While existing golf members can still choose to “downgrade” to the May River Golf-only membership and not join Crossroads, they no longer completely forfeit the ability to become a member at the second 18-hole golf course.  SSP’s revisions now provide a short window to reverse a downgrade decision.  Full details are in the “downgrade” document on the Member website under the Golf Club Membership tab.  The most relevant new language is below:

For a 90-day period after the opening of a new 18-hole golf course, (i) May River Tier I Members who downgraded from Golf Tier I Membership by March 31, 2024, may upgrade back to Golf Tier I Membership by submitting an upgrade request, without payment of an additional membership joining fee and without being subject to the waiting list to acquire a Golf Tier I Membership, and (ii) May River Tier II Members who downgraded from Golf Tier II Membership by March 31, 2024 may upgrade back to Golf Tier II Membership by submitting an upgrade request, without payment of an additional membership joining fee.

This new “downgrade” agreement contains an additional option for May River members to rejoin Golf Club membership after the 90-day window if the Club has not reached its cap (along with payment of any delta in joining fees).  We urge any interested member to review the documents and FAQs on the member website. The Palmetto Bluff Membership office is available to answer any questions you may have regarding your membership questions.
