OPINION — In this latest example of “let’s hope the residents don’t notice” financial reporting, the unaudited 6/30/26 end of year financial statements indicate glaring deviations from the budget. Residents really should take notice.
Golf fees (a revenue item) for the 12 months came in at $10,931,208, $405,240 less than budgeted. With average revenue per round at roughly $30 each, we somehow missed out on quite a few thousand rounds of golf.
The rec centers’ only explanation: Extreme temps in March, April and June negatively impacted non-member golf rounds. I find this odd given June’s golf fees actually beat the budget by $4,742 and were favorable to prior year by $19,012.
