The last four times I was at the pool, I noticed young adults "visiting". Only one of those "visitations" were guests who were in the company of the Owner.
The second "guest" was not attended by the Owner but at least the Owners were currently on the property.
In both the other two instances, Guests were "invitees" of non-Owners who were a Relative of an Owner but the relative did not own or live on the premises. One was a girlfriend of a non-Owner's son who is habitating on the property. Does the Office retain leases of named authorized persons residing on Owner property and their identity information? Is there a policy communicated to Owners about expected behavior of "guests" using the facilities? Is there a definition of "guest"? Are the children of a divorced spouse of an Owner's second cousin considered an authorized Guest? Do Owners understand and accept their responsibilities regarding the conduct of their lessees and guests?
I am aware that complaints have been made to the Office and wonder if any action is being contemplated. Guests who are not attended by their sponsoring Owners are likely to be seen as "the public" insofar as liability. Even more liability accrues to the Association by permitting Guests of Relatives of Owners to use our facilities at their whim and without benefit of an Owner in attendance.
Do we need yet another premises liability?
