NEXT EGM, possibly 22nd May 2010

Dear Owners,

As you will be aware, a decision was taken at the AGM on 14th March to hold an Extraordinary General Meeting, in order to consider several matters including the painting programme, the future on-site management of the urbanization and issues around the Administrator’s services to the community.

Since the AGM, there has been much discussion within the committee and investigation of costs. For me, this has been by telephone and email. The original intention was to try to hold the EGM in April but it proved impossible to obtain all the necessary information in sufficient time to assess everything thoroughly and to send out papers to owners.

The intended date for the EGM is now Saturday 22nd May, in the morning. This should allow for papers to be sent to owners in good time.

However, it will be impossible to confirm this date until the current problems with air travel resulting from the volcano in Iceland are resolved. I myself have flights booked and was expecting to be in Spain from 21st April to 28th April, to discuss the various issues and assess the information which is available with some members of the committee and to meet with the Administrator. In particular we were intending to address the concerns over the gardens. This trip is now looking in serious doubt and I understand that there are forecasts of possible disruption to air travel for some time to come.

I will, of course, contact you again when we can be more definite.

Yours sincerely,

Graham Walker
President

Roof works

The company whose quote was accepted to carry out the roof repairs has the work well underway. They had hoped to complete the work this week, but due to the return of the heavy rains, it is too dangerous to be up on the roof-tops. Neal has confirmed that, weather permitting, he will return to the community to complete the work at the beginning of next week, with the intention to complete on Tuesday 20th. Neal confirmed that he has managed to obtain the same tiles (despite the model being an old batch). On completion, he will invite Kevan up to inspect his work and see all the repairs and replacements that have been carried out.

Minutes AGM 2010 sent

The minutes of the AGM held 13th March 2010 have just been sent to all owners by email, in pdf format. If you can't read them, please ask for a copy in word or any other format.

The date for the EGM is still to be confirmed, possibly will be postdated to May so we have time to get more estimates for painting.
