It is with great pleasure to report to the Owners and Residents of Naniwa Gardens Condominium the property improvements completed in 2010. The Naniwa Gardens Management Team comprised of your Elected Board of Di-rectors, the Staff of Naniwa Gardens and the Property Management Company (formerly Hawaii First) were very busy this year! Some major projects like the Elevator replacement were started in 2009, but was completed this year. In addition the following improvements were done:

• Top level parking deck repairs • Top level drainage improvements • Re-coating of all exposed deck areas • Elevator entry area improvements • Upper library bathroom refurbishment • Koi Pod cleaning • Concrete planter repairs

On the next page you can view some photos of these projects. Please note that some of these projects were done using our talented in-house staff (Tommy, Ray and Nic). They saved us a bunch of dollars by tackling these pro-jects for us. We are very fortunate to have such a skilled staff and we hope you will remember to acknowledge their contributions this Holiday Season! The coming new year will bring new concerns for our beloved Naniwa, but your Team is already ‘on it’ to make sure all projects and improvements are implemented with a minimum of problems. We, the Management Team of Naniwa Gardens would like to extend a heart-felt “THANK YOU” for all the support and appreciation shown by all of the Owners and Residents of Naniwa.

Merry Christmas & Happy New Year! Your Naniwa Gardens Management Team

Since last year the Board of Directors have decided to have residents of Naniwa Garden to come forward to volunteer their time and talent in the planning and executing of our annual holiday gathering. The enthusiasm was great last year and even better this year!

In deciding to have the residents volunteer, we have came to the conclusion that having residents volunteer would make for a better community ‘feel’ at our condominium as well as allowing us more time to focus on managing the property.

We believed this annual event is very important, it has all of the Board’s support and it should continue into the future. We also hope to see the continuation of volunteers to sus-tain this tradition as well.

We would like to extend an advance ‘ MAHALO’ to the folks who have volunteered!

The date for this year’s Holiday Party will be held In the Activity Room on:

December 16, 2010

Please remember this event is only for Residents Only no outside Family or Friends please. Mahalo.
