Three Mountain Lodge Association Board Seats expire this year and nominations are being accepted for positions. Each of these positions are for three-year terms.
Nominations require the submission of the official nomination form (see below) to the General Manager (gm@snowshoemtnlodge.com). This form may be self-submitted by the nominee. Currently sitting board members may be nominated for a new term, but must also fill out the official nomination form.
Nomination Forms are Due 40 days before the spring HOA meeting on March 20, 2022. Therefore the nomination submission due date is February 8th, 2022.
Note: “…nominations may be made from the floor at the meeting if no more than one (1) person has been nominated to that seat…” The election committee will need to qualify any floor-nominated candidate before the election can go forward.
Qualifications. The following rules shall define the qualifications for eligibility to serve on the Executive Board:
The decks are galvanized structures with aluminum deck boards.
The foundations are going in this year so that we’re ready for erection in the Spring.
The 2 example decks are going up this year so we can see what they look like and if we need to adjust the design. We decided to ONLY do two sets (one single stack, and one double stack) so we can get a firm bid on the rest when (hopefully) materials come down in the fall.
The decks are 7×7, which is 49 sq ft. A LOT bigger than the 12.5 sq ft that came off. Due to space restrictions at some locations, 7×7 was as big as we could go where everyone has the same size deck. We had to have uniformity.
There may be an option for 1st floor owners to add a gate and steps at the owners cost. The design is in the pictures in the plans on the wall outside the GM office.

Hello Homeowners,
The MLUOA Board would like to bring you up to date on the Deck phase (Phase 2) of our building renovation. Here is a short outline of the whole project.
Time line for Mountain Lodge Renovation- 2019 to the present:
Mike sent out nine different bid packages and received only two bids back. After reviewing these bids (the least expensive of which was $3.5 million), the MLUOA Board determined the price was too high to do the whole project this year. Due in large part to the response to COVID-19, material pricing is through the roof, and demand for construction labor far exceeds supply, leading to uncharacteristically high labor pricing.
Mike then separated out Phase II into three sub-phases: foundations (Phase 2a.) and proofing stack (Phase 2b.) work in summer 2021, and fabrication and installation (Phase 2c.) work in summer 2022. After reviewing two bids we received for Phase 2a., the MLUOA Board selected the less expensive option of $351,000 plus contingencies.
The company that will do the foundations (Phase 2a.) work will also do the proofing stack (Phase 2b.) work, for an additional $81,000. This money buys us a total of nine decks, arranged in a stack of three single decks and a stack of three side-by-side (or “double”) decks. These proofing stacks will be installed on the parking lot side, with the location to be determined based on the contractor’s recommendation. We hope doing this proofing stack will lead to a price reduction since it will allow the builder to see precisely what the real fabrication and installation costs will be.
We will sign the contract for this work on Phase 2a. once it is approved by our attorneys and Snowshoe’s Architectural Review Committee. Work on Phases 2a. and 2b. is planned to start June 1, 2021 with both the foundations and the proofing stacks planned for completion prior to the beginning of the upcoming winter season.
The MLUOA Board’s goal is to bring this project in at no more than $2.5 million, and we’re optimistic this can happen. To pay for this, we have established an assessment schedule, as there is no bank financing available for this project. We also have a limited amount of money we can pull out of our reserve fund, as this fund is being used as collateral for the loan on the cladding project. The bank has agreed to allow us to pull $1 million out of the reserve fund.
Based on the need to pay the contractor in full on completion of the project in (as early as) October 2022, for the next 15 months starting in July 2021, monthly MLA statements will include an additional charge of $450 per month per deck. Accordingly, MLA statements for condos featuring two decks (i.e., combined or St. Moritz floorplans) will pay $900 per month. Owners may also choose to make a one-time payment upfront. This plan is based on the project coming in at $2.5 million. Once we have a firm bid for the fabrication and installation, this could adjust. The MLUOA Board asked the ownership who attended the HOA meeting in March whether a one-time assessment or a payment plan was preferred. Doing a payment plan was the preferred option.
Your MLUOA Board has been working overtime to get this accomplished under conditions where materials and labor are in such short supply. We’re very excited to have found a builder that can get this started promptly and at a very reasonable price.
We will keep you updated with the newsletter, Facebook, and our website posts.
This is not the colors it will be – roofs will be red to match the rest of the building roofs and floors and privacy dividers are to be determined.
Thank you for your patience and understanding as we take on the next phase of making the Mountain Lodge the best it can be.
Best Regards,
Peggy Mahler
President, MLUOA Board
