Reinstate adult guest policy for Single Adult Members

Subject: Member Proposal: Reinstating Free Adult Guest Privilege for Single-Adult Memberships
Dear DHARA Board of Directors,
As a member of the Dominion Hills Area Recreation Association, I am writing to formally request that the Board reinstate the policy allowing single-adult membership owners to bring one adult guest free of charge.
Our bylaws and membership terms dictate that each membership represents a single household unit. Under this framework, single-adult households pay the identical annual dues and assessments as multi-adult family memberships. However, a single-member household naturally draws significantly less operational resources, footprint and daily capacity from the pool facilities.
Reinstating the single-adult guest privilege is a matter of equity. It restores balanced value to single-adult households, allowing them to share their investment with a partner, friend or relative without incurring an immediate guest fee penalty.
Furthermore, this policy creates negligible pressure on facility capacity. A single member paired with one guest represents a far smaller physical footprint on the deck than an average multi-person family unit. This privilege would align cleanly with current DHARA Rules & Regulations.
Thank you for your tireless volunteer leadership and continued stewardship of the Dominion Hills community. I look forward to your consideration of this proposal at the upcoming board meeting.
