JANUARY  25, 2007 HOME OWNERS BOARD MEETING NOTES

Did you know that Sheffield Towne residents are paying more then $94,720.00 every month to our Association Board.

Every year the Sheffield Association Board allocates greater then $1,136,640.00 various projects and programs.

Did you know that the Association Board is actually considering spending over $2,400.00 to purchase 5 camera phones with walkie-talkie and camera features.

Additionally they are THINKING that a monthly service charge for a 1000 minute shared plan is more then $200.00 per month!!!

That's a total of at least $4,800.00 for 5 phones!  Who's MONEY are they spending...  Association Payment required for the 1st year... is $4,800 divided by $160 equals 30 payments. It will take the home owners nearly 3 years just to pay for the startup cost for the 1st year of service! Don't forget this is a 2 year contract for total cost of operations for 2 years will be over $7,240.00 Assuming there are no accessories added (HaHa), No repairs or insurance.

Why would an intelligent BOARD even spend time considering such options.

There Reasoning is... they NEED 5 Cameras on the street in order to SOLVE
our GARBAGE Problem here at the Sheffield Towne !!!!

I tested there theory last week and it only took 36 minutes to traverse the entrie complex to find 6 or so violations. This includes the time to took to take the picture. So if you seen me around the neighborhood this is the reason.

How are we compensated for SERVICES that are NOT fulfilled!

For 2 years running Oxford Court's LAWN CARE was NOT fulfilled!
The first trimming of the year was 4th of July weekend. and then only 1 additional at years end... Although on Walnut Ave, specifically the EAST side of the street were the Association Vice President lives and the ACTING property manager (ACTING) live! Is this just a coincident or is this a story of "STEALING FORM PAUL TO GIVE TO PETER".

Have your Ever Received a letter from the Association CLAIMING that you VIOLATED an Association Rule on GARBAGE?

You are NOT alone... So now you realize how ridicules it is to THINK that putting a camera in every hand, which will only CAUSE more problems. The BOARD FAILS to address the real issues, hence we live with a continuing problem!

FEBRUARY  26, 2007 HOME OWNERS BOARD MEETING NOTES

Of course the the residents of Sheffield are outraged at the performance and ability of the in-house transition for snow removal has been a disaster!!!!

The alleged lower cost for in house, i.e. 4 paid employees and 2 out sourced offset the poorly planned execution of snow removal by the association.
