Assessment by Fairfield's Sea Oaks Resort, Edisto Island

Recently I received a letter dated 11/6/06 from the Sea Oaks Board of Directors advising all owners that the Board had voted unanimously to assess each owner $1,000 per week owned in order to "create a special budget of $734,907" to cover the cost of correcting certain structural issues with the 25 year-old Sea Oaks buildings. This special assessment, which must be paid in full by 1/31/07, is apparently the result of the Board's review of an "in-depth evaluation" performed by a licensed professional hired by the Board. I'm concerned about this special assessment as the letter is not specific as to what actual work will be performed nor does it identify what company has been awarded the work. Does anybody have any information about the situation at Sea Oaks or assessments of this type in general? Thanks.
