PAUL MENDEZ—Q&A (con ’ t)
Why Now: This is an especially important moment for our community. Beyond the capital budget initiatives already underway, we are about to make one of the most conse- quential decisions for our future - the selection of a new General Manager. Whoever is chosen must understand the upscale nature of our community and, more importantly, that we are truly member-centric. This requires not only operational skill, but emotional intelligence and cul- tural awareness. The timing matters. I believe the decisions we make now will shape the experience of every member for years to come. A Call to Action: Over the last 3 years I ’ ve watched the Board thoughtfully address the long-term capital vision for Frenchman's - creating a long-term plan - building a beautiful new clubhouse, renovating the fitness center, planning reconfiguration of the driving range and 9th hole, and much more. Those invest- ments were impressive and necessary. What I would like to be a part of next is an equally robust revitalization of the culture of Frenchman's. Historically, there was something special about Frenchman's Creek that other gated communities envied. Members were friendly and inclusive. Philanthropic yet low-key. We were known for exceptional food and truly member-focused service.
There was a warmth and ease here that made people proud to call this home. That doesn't have to be a memory. It can be our future!
