The feedback we received was:

a.    70% of the community surveys would like the warehouse to be used for storage.

b.    60% of the community surveys would like to see a new lock installed at the pool.

c.    80% of the community felt that guests staying with a homeowner or given permission by the homeowner should be allowed to use the pool facility.
