San Francisco GuidElines:


President's Message

 GREETINGS
​
It looks like the current scheduled reopening date of October 1, 2020 will become reality. After several months of what seemed to be a constantly moving “goal post” for a reopening date, we finally have the clearance from the San Francisco Mayor’s Office to reopen our hotel “on a limited basis.” The answer to what constitutes a “limited basis”: can be found in several pages of mandatory conditions we must adhere to be open for business.

When in the public areas (outside of your hotel room) masks must be worn by all guests and staff throughout the building. The furnishings in each room will be limited to enable them to be kept clean.
​
Most important, there will be a mandatory twenty-four (24) hour gap in the occupancy and use of each room. This means that after a guest vacates their room following a stay of any duration the entire room will be cleaned to the new standards of sanitation to deal with the COVID-19 virus and then the room must be vacant for at least 24 hours until it is available for use by the next guest. This results in a significant increase in room vacancies which dramatically will affect the availability of
rooms for our Owners and guests.

Our Club Management Team has developed training materials to enable each employee to be conversant in all the new measures. We are mandating that each employee spend several hours in this training. We are also educating each employee on the new standards for their personal health and measurements of each employee’s temperature will be administered on a daily basis upon reporting to work.

When you make your next reservation you will be furnished details of the changes in the hotel operations which will affect you on your next visit. We do not know how long these additional measures will be in effect but we will keep them in force for as long as is necessary for the health and safety of our guests and employees. 
​
As most of you know, we have not been operating since March, 2020. With the passing of each closed month since then we have been granting extensions of the Anniversary Dates of our Owners who had not completely used their allotted annual seven (7) nights by the expiration date of their current year. These extensions were granted upon request by standards set by the Directors and typically gave the Owner an additional six (6) month period to use their remaining unused nights.

When these extensions were made, we anticipated that the additional period of time would enable then Owner to get full use of their annual seven (7) nights. Because none of us have ever lived through the pandemic times as we have since March, 2020, it turned out that the initial six (6) month extension of the initial group of March Anniversary year expirations was of no value to the Owner as we were not allowed to reopen the hotel within the six (6) month extended period. As the shutdown continued, we continued to grant similar extensions to more Owners as their Anniversary Years expired during the continued shutdown period.

Now we have an October 1, 2020 opening date and as each month of continued operations occurs the usability of the previous extensions decreases.

What to do to be fair to all. In its wisdom your Board has come up with what I believe you will agree is a fair way to deal with all our Owners.

Without request from each Owner all Owners who have had their Anniversary Year expiration dates fall from March, 2020 through September, 2020 will automatically have an additional approximate six (6) months added to that Year to be able to use their unused nights in that Year, as extended.

For example, the Anniversary Date of the expiring March, 2020 Anniversary Years, which were extended into September, 2020 and have expired, will be extended for an additional six (6) months starting October 1, 2020.

April 2020 Anniversary Year Anniversary Date extensions which will expire in October, 2020 (as well as Owners with a regularly scheduled October, 2020 Anniversary Year expiring in October, 2020) will be extended for an additional five (5) months starting in November, 2020. (The total time available to an October expiring Anniversary Year is six (6) months, of which one (1) month is after the reopening in October, 2020 and the remaining five (5) months are extended months).

As Anniversary Dates subsequent to October, 2020 occur each Owner with an expiring Anniversary Date will have the Anniversary Date extended for the number of extended months necessary, when added to the reopened months, for an approximate total of six (6) months time available to make up for the nights not used during the shutdown period.

Of course, the difficulty presented by this approach is that we cannot manufacture the additional dates we have granted because the calendar only gives us forty-five (45) rooms available each night so we have to squeeze the extended dates into the regular nights otherwise available to other Owners. But compared to what we have all endured in the last six (6) months of our lives I am confident that issue will also be resolved as well as possible.

I am confident that good people with good intentions can always reach a reasonable and fair result.

Stay Safe: We will do our best to keep you safe when you next visit us.
