Most Phase 2 owners that have completed will have had minutes and an invoice from the EGM in October, as we know Roda are still picking up the costs on many uncompleted apartments and are still liable for some other community costs.

The AGM to discuss the takeover by the community and all associated costs will be held on Friday 8th February 2008. No doubt short notice will be sent by the administrator but you may all want to put that date in your diary if you can make it. Only about 10 owners attended the EGM due to short notice and other commitments.

There is much to discuss and a good chance to air your concerns especially as a senior representative from Roda is expected to attend.

Hopefully see as many as possible there.

Hi
Not sure how many Phase 2 apartment owners look at this site, but just wanted to post a reminder with regard to the forthcoming AGM on 8th Feb.  Notice should have been received by now from the administrator. Note that you will not be entitled to vote if maintenance fees to 31st Dec have not been paid.

I am planning to attend and would be happy to ask questions on behalf of owners or indeed carry their proxy if you have not made other arrangements. I would hope there will be a better attendance that at the EGM but I believe many owners have still not completed.

Email me on  hugh_man@btinternet.com if you wish to ask particular questions or if you need details for your proxy.

Chris

Don't wish to be a bore but just to remind busy Phase 2 apartment owners of the community AGM on 8th Feb.

Should you have any questions you wish to put to the administrators ensure that you have passed them to your proxy or someone who is going to be in attendance. Every voice counts.

Does anyone have any news of the AGM in Feb. We have not received any minutes of the meeting and I thought we would have done by now.

Are there any nasty surprises regarding Fees that we should know about?

Sorry RD and others, only recently back from Roda and had hoped maybe someone may have published some news. Minutes will be late as there has been around 6 community meetings held last month.

The meeting was pretty lengthy and fairly noisy with approx 30 people 50% Spanish and 50% English/Irish.

The Apartmentos P12 Fase 11 comprises 288 apartments and will eventually make up 24% of the Entidad when formed

It was noisy as the Spanish do seem to like to make lengthy comments rather than ask simple questions and it was sometimes difficult to keep up with translations whilst other discussions were going on.

The President and Vice Presidents remain unchanged mainly because no one else would come forward

Main focus was to approve budget for 2008 which involved long discussions especially on the more costly items such as grounds,lifts etc.

The good news is that the Entidad which involves all communities has still not been formed so the budgeted figure to Dec was not spent and along with other savings gives us Euros 42000 to bring forward.

There was some concern re the unpaid maintenance fees but I was told the records are still not up to date and that if there were persistent debtors then 20% could be added as a penalty and at some point legal action could be pursued, hopefully it will not come to that but as some investors bought to sell on quickly I think they will be reluctant to pay fees until they sell.

The Spanish contingent expressed frustration over the state of the communal areas and also the fact the Beach Club has been stripped back and is not ready. Roda did say it would be open in June but they did say the clubhouse would be open in December. Spanish licence law is far too complicated for me.

Re the gardens, it was agreed that a committee should look into all the outstanding problems and seek out alternative quotes for maintenance.

I was press ganged on to that committee along with our President and 1 V P and am pleased to say we have had very constructive site inspections, discussions etc which will result in a list of requests for Roda to put right and we have also found a contractor whose quote is almost half our current budget, hopefully we can get this changed asap and see an
 improvement on the poor work currently being carried out.

There was much discussion on costs of lift maintenance but we were told we had to have 24 hour emergency cover and there were many lits to maintain. Hopefully we will also acquire further competitive quotes in the near future.

We also talked about savings on lights and electricity in communal areas which are all being looked at.

The auditor (A Spanish owner offering his service for free) was happy with the work supplied by the administrator.

The administrator was re elected, perhaps in time owners will monitor their work to ensure they are acting in our best interests

There was discussion about railings on terraces and it was approved that these could be increased in height on safety grounds. However when asked by an owner if they could change their concrete wall to railings, they were advised that that was an aesthetic change and would need approval at an EGM. As you have seen on another thread, the owners in question are trying to enlist support for their proposal rather than go to the lengthy and costly process of an EGM.

Personally I feel more railings rather than concrete walls would enhance the area and hope they get as much support as possible.

I seem to remember many other discussions from the Spanish under AOB but got a bit lost as the meeting rather deteriorated into a free for all.

That seems a rather brief summary of a long AGM and no doubt the minutes when they arrive will correct me and have more detail.

If you have any particular concerns or questions please PM or email  hugh_man@btinternet.com

Great post Hugh-Man, very constructive. We completed in December but are still in the dark about paying community fees. Roda said they would inform us when to start paying, but we were made aware that until external snagging issues had been dealt with they would not post out community fees. Am I right?

Interesting post Nick. As far as I was aware community fees became payable form last October for those that had already completed and presumably from the date you completed if after then.

Of course, as yet you have not received either minutes or an invoice for 2008 and Roda will have paid your fees up until your completion then pass your details to the administrator for them to liase. That is why there is still a number of outstanding fees, the administrator does not have all details of completions.

With regard to the external snagging issues, I would love to know who made that comment and to what issues they refer. Especially as I am in process of writing the report on the deficiencies of the communal grounds in order for Roda to hopefully put them right.

hugh_man many thanks for your very useful update on what is hapopening re agm etc.

can i just add one external snag in case it has not yet been flagged up.

the paving stones around the pool in front of block 43 in phase 2 have sunk really badly and we have already had my son go over on them - this will be very bad if Roda don't fix them before the busy summer.

sorry if this is not the right time or place to raise this issue. if it is better to contact Roda direct please let me know.

many thanks.

trevor.

sorry i should have said if you click on the link to my website in the signature below and look at "photos" you can see how far they had sunk at Christmas time around the top left apron of the pool .

 

thanks again.

Hi Trevor

I must say I cannot recall the slabs from my site visits but had noticed the levels between grass and slabs which has been attended to by placing soil, not very effectively.

It may be that they have put right any problem as when I was there last month they were in filling slab gaps with sand.

If you are able to check and confirm the ongoing problem you can certainly let me know as I have just completed a 3 page report on problems with communal areas that has gone to Roda and the administrator

Hi hugh-man,

Chris,

Just a quick posting to say thanks for all the effort you are putting into the smooth-running of Phase 2.  Look forward to seeing you both some time soon.  (We're over at Easter for a few days).

Hi,

We signed contracts on a phase 2 apt. on 18th February. Could anyone tell us what happens next regarding the community charges etc? I guess Roda inform the administrators and they in turn contact us? Maybe there is already a letter in our post box over there, we can check when we visit next week.

Any advise would be appreciated.

Many thanks,

Hi Vercol

Yes you are right, Roda should inform the administrator especially as Roda will have been paying the charges on your apartment.

This process however does not always run as smoothly as it should and may take some time but they will no doubt contact you directly.
As yet we have still not received the minutes of the Feb AGM or an invoice for payments so things are definitely running slow.

You could always contact   rosa@housingcommunidades.com to ensure they have been passed your details and to ask them to send you a copy of the minutes when ready.

Correspondence would normally be sent to your home address if they have it and unless otherwise requested.

Chris

Hi Vercol,

we were one of the first people to complete on our apartment in phase 2. We completed in late july . We recieved notification in december for payment of community fees for about 300 euros with the option to pay by direct debit. these fees take us up to dec 07. Dont worry they will catch up with you eventually.
