The Recreation Center
NEW! - Financial Reserve Study
In August 2014, the Board of the Recreation Center contracted with a professional analysis company to perform a Reserve Study on the property. The purpose of the study was to determine whether the Recreation Center has the available savings, or reserve, funds to meet its future financial obligations in regards to big-ticket items (roof, paving, painting, pools & spa, building repairs) without the need for special assessments. The reserve study report is available by clicking the link above.
For owners in Oceana South Condominium, the Oceana South Association, Inc. is not to be confused with The Oceana South Condominium Association, Inc. The two associations are completely different, and, upon purchase of a unit in either Oceana South or in Island Crest each owner automatically becomes a member of the Oceana South Association. The OSA is also known as the Recreation Center Association, and its primary responsibility is for the maintenance and protection of the property and assets of the recreation center facilities.
Owners should also note that membership in the OSA is slightly different than in the Condominium Association. The OSA is not a condominium association, but rather a property owner’s association, or POA.
In a Condominium Association, or COA, each member owns a percentage amount of the common property. That percentage is used to calculate the regular and special assessments charged to the owner. Thus, in a COA, the amounts charged vary according to unit size.
In a POA, each member owns an equal share of the common property, as no one owner owns more than another. Thus, regular and special assessments are divided equally among the entire 252 members – 126 from each Island Crest and Oceana South.
The Board welcomes you to your recreation area and invites you to assist them in maintaining these facilities. In order to accomplish this, the Board has adopted a set of rules that owners are expected to abide by. Please remember that these rules have been adopted for owners, tenants and guests for the mutual benefit of all.
These rules and regulations apply to the Oceana South Association, Inc. and do not supersede any rule or regulation adopted by the Island Crest Condominium Association or Oceana South Condominium Association. In the event you require clarification of these rules please contact the Recreation Association Manager or one of the Recreation Association Board of Directors.

RECREATION BUILDING ELECTRONIC ACCESS
Entry to the recreation building is by electronic access. Each member is given two (2) numbered key fobs which when swiped near the readers by each door, provide access. Members may purchase an additional two fobs should they desire. NOTE: Owners should write down the fob numbers assigned to them and keep this with other important records. The use of the fob system allows us to know who has entered the building and what time the building was entered. Owners are responsible for the proper use of the fobs, for their use by family members and guests and for their security. If a fob is lost, please notify the manager immediately and provide the number of the lost fob, so that it may be rendered inoperable. This will prevent entry by unauthorized persons. Members will be responsible for replacing lost fobs at the prevailing price. Renters and guests MUST obtain a fob from the unit owner. No exceptions.
