The committee conducted a walk about on July 20 th , 2022. It was noted that 4 campus pools need
attention. Shawn from MHN reviewed El Mirador’s landscape needs and focused on the lobby
entrance and terrace. He stated that we can now move forward with planting 41 succulents in the
terrace planters. Shawn was also asked about the removal of all lobby entrance flowerpots. He said
that those pots provide a bit of a wind break for the entrance, therefore, the decision to remove the
pots is being tabled until the Renovation Project commences.
L & R Committee Report – Ken Sigelman
Mark Merson has been hired as the L & R General Manager, replacing Jerry McDonald who recently
resigned. The Beach Club continues to operate with a profit. The Coronado Shores 50 th Anniversary
party has been postponed due to the most recent COVID outbreak. Dr. Elizabeth Hammond
researched the latest COVID outbreak for our Board of Directors and found that at this time, we
should continue to follow current plans that are in place.

Old Business: – Rafael Estrada
Cooling Tower
At the April 23 rd , 2022, Board Meeting, Air Treatment Corporation was selected by the Board to
complete our cooling tower repairs. This project had been placed on hold since April, due to a Liability
Insurance issue. Rafael and Bob Bishop have been in discussions with Kirk Miller Insurance requesting
that an exception be made to the $10 million in Umbrella/Excess Liability Insurance for this project, as
ATC only carries $8 million in coverage. Bob Bishop spoke with a representative from Kirk Miller
Insurance on July 22 nd , 2022, and it was communicated to Bob that an exception to the Excess Liability
Insurance dollar limit, could be made for this project, due to fact that this is a “repair/refurbish
project”. Therefore, it was determined, that we can proceed with ATC to complete this project.
Boilers
The Board has approved hiring Jackson & Blanc to replace the Heating Hot Water and Domestic Hot
Water Boiler Systems. The contract has been reviewed and approved by El Mirador’s attorney,
Elizabeth French. Elizabeth French added an addendum to the contract, which the Board of Director’s
and Jackson & Blanc have approved. Jackson & Blanc meets our $10 million dollar Umbrella/Excess
Liability Insurance requirements. The project is to begin at the end of December. 2022. Further details
will be forthcoming as we get closer to the start date of this project.
