The "different" house colors have been approved by the president. It's a fact! There is no longer a committee for the purpose of changes. Everything goes through the president now.

You can't just blame the President. He is only one person on a Board of 5.
They all are suppose to watch out for the community.
He is the only one doing anything....right or wrong.
Since they took office how many times have you seen anyone other than the Pres working around here.

It IS the Board's responsibility to oversee the asthetics committee that is SUPPOSED to oversee paint colors according to the covenants. Apparently the present board doesn't want to lose any votes by crushing any toes. I kind of like some of the new colors. reminds me of back home in the islands.

For what the president gets paid, he should be doing all the work around here. I just wonder why we never see anything about bid opportunities for all these "neighborhood Jobs"?

But does the Board ever publish or post anything about asking for competitive bids? Where are they submitted to? When? How?
All I see here is a lot of money going to the Board President. I guess he's the ONLY one that knows when to compeitively bid on a job...............

The Board takes the Bids and then they vote on who will do the best job for the best price. They aren't required to take low bid...Best Bid

You're missing the point. HOW DOES ONE GET ON THE BID LIST?
It's really hard to get selected if you're not allowed to bid.

Probably go to the meeting and ask the question. Or send them a message.
They are probably posting them somewhere or in the newspaper.

remember last year $4,000+ was spend on a soda machine? well the board has now spent $850.00 on a STEREO system for the pool area! REALLY! i must admit that the entrance is looking better with the new sod. but now with this wawa's store coming in...they will be using our main entrance to access their store....they want 49 additional parking spaces (is this place going to be a hangout for kids?  ).....are we losing our wall? did anyone from the board go to the hearing? was an attorney sent to represent greater groves? money spent on a stereo system that should have gone to our legal representation on the construction of wawa's. is this going to increase our property values?? no way! the fountain that hsa not worked in years...tear it down...get rid of it....just another big expense and another thing to be vandalized! the new security camera system installed for $13,000.00.....now we find out they don't work the way we need them to. how much more is this going to cost to get a system that works. well to begin.....the flagpole will be replaced by a concrete pole to install a camera on it .....to the tune of $800+ !!!!! we were told that trespassers from other communities will not be prosecuted by the state...even though we have them taped on our expensive security system and cited by the sheriff's department! can you believe that....trespasser and bring shotguns to our pool area where your children play and nothing can be done about them. PEOPLE get smart here...we need to take back our neighbor ourselves......bring back the CRIME WATCH NEIGHBORHOOD....get greater groves citizens back on "patrol".....walk our streets (in groups of course) let us been seen. the president said they are considering adding onto the clubhouse....for storage. stop spending money foolishly and start thinking about protecting the greater groves community! |
