Electric Consumption Report, June13, 2026

Year-over-Year Comparison of Electric Billings.

Summary: June’s billing is the first to show the results of the garage lighting improvement installations. Starting on May 1, garages 3,4,5,6, and 8 were upgraded to motion sensing fixtures.  June billing started on May 13. The average YOY saving attributed to lighting consumption of the five buildings was approximately $100 - $130 per building which is in range of expectations. 

Notes: Building 7 was not upgraded since LED fixtures were installed in 2024. Building 8’s equipment problem skewed the 2025 billings. These costs were excluded in the lighting consumption calculations.

Cooler temperatures also reduced air conditioning electric consumption.

Cumulative electric billed cost reflected a YOY cumulative reduction of $10,537.88. (25%)

Property Management Change

 Windswept Condominiums Important Notice

Important Message: Property Management Change

All Windswept Residents, 

As we announced on Saturday at our Board meeting, we decided to terminate our management contract with FSR and transition to Premier Management (PCAM)   The Board conducted a detailed, months-long search for a new company and selected Premier for several reasons.

1 - The technology and financial software platform they use is generally regarded as one of the best in the area of HOA/COA management.   Vantaca is the name of the software, which will allow the Board real-time access to our financials and provide a much more user-friendly experience for residents.

2 - They are a Lewes based firm managing many communities throughout Delaware, especially along the coast.  All of their senior management are local.   They are a firm that does not outsource call management to a call center.   Every call, day or night, will be answered by someone from the Lewes facility who has full knowledge of Windswept and our contractors.   This will allow for faster and more efficient resolution of problems in the community

3 - We interviewed the community manager who will be responsible for Windswept and were impressed with his background, ability and approach to working with residents.

4 - Premier is the only company we interviewed that actively uses AI to help manage properties.  They will run all of our billing through an AI agent that will look for duplicate billing, mathematical errors and more.     They will run our utility bills through the AI agent to look for unusual spikes or anomalies.  This doesn't remove the community manager's responsibility but adds another layer of oversight that we feel can be helpful.

5 - We negotiated a contract that costs less than FSR's and includes no increase for the first 3 years, after that there is a built-in 3% annual increase.  The result of this work is a better contract, better services at a lower price.  

While we are sure it will not be perfect, we do feel that this is a significant upgrade for the community.

THINGS TO KNOW

FSR is managing our community until 7/31 and all payments, including the 7/1 quarterly assessments, must be made to FSR just as you have made in the past.  Any work orders or calls for assistance should continue to go to FSR/Jenny Reid until July 31st .

Premier will begin its transition toward management on July 1st and take over full responsibility on August 1st.

In July, we will host a meeting with Premier so residents can meet the team. During the meeting, PCAM will help everyone set up Vantaca accounts, giving you full access to its tools by August 1st .

Sincerely,

Windswept Board of Directors

Garage Lighting Project - Complete

Dear Neighbors,

First, Many thanks to all of you for moving your vehicles. That made work easier and faster.

At last, those 20-year-old rusty, bug encrusted with cracked plastic fixtures have been replaced.

The full-time residents can instantly see the improvement. 

More lights less wattage. Whatta deal!

Building 3,4,5,6, & 8 are complete.

The basic lighting scheme is motion sensing,

which will save money since their "burn time" is only minutes per day. 

8-9 courtesy lights will remain on all night.  

The trash rooms have also been improved.


Building 4 - Standby Night Lights only


Building 4- After driving through fully illuminated

Building 4- electrical consumption, Note change on May 2.
The demands spikes are caused by the elevator.
