This is surly like painting the forth bridge a never ending cost so why not just employ our own painters as a community and cut out the middle man. Specialist equipment could be hired as and when if not worth buying outright.

For those of you that haven’t received the Call to the AGM so far, below is the relevant part you are being asked to vote on.

 

Painting: According to the report produced by the Architect, the painting should start in some properties and common areas. For that, and with the quotes received, Condado Painting & Decorating is the cheapest Company. With this quote we have prepared various options for you to choose in order to achieve this work now

a)  extra fee for saving money for painting, paying a quarterly fee of 15€ to start with the most urgent areas.

b) extra fee for painting in three years, paying quarterly extra fee of 50.25€

c) extra fee for painting in three years, paying annual fee of 201€

d)  extra fee for painting in four years, paying quarterly extra fee of 37.69€

e)  extra fee for painting in four years, paying annual fee of 150.75€

 

As I said in my original post I don’t understand option (a) Do You? Perhaps a president out there can explain assuming you have any better knowledge than the rest of us.

And the other options (b) (c) (d) & (e) look very expensive to me as reputable local contractors are already providing this service at something lick half this cost.

Can anyone explain the options proposed for the painting of our homes in Condado as we are supposed to be voting on this issue?

Option (a)

I don’t understand. Do any of you?

Options (b) (c) (d) & (e)

If I understand this correctly we would pay over 600 Euros each to have our properties painted every 3 or 4 years.

If I recall correctly local contractors are already doing this work for 300 Euros?

How can it be the same cost for Vilas, Gardens and Penthouses as each area is support to have its own charges applied according to it individual quota as laid down in the statutes.

I am happy to pay the realistic cost of painting my property, but something looks wrong with this to me?

Now we have the number plate readers the security will be much better as before you had a swipe a card registered to you, and if you lost it, it could be stopped and a replacement issued. Not very secure was it.

Now if anyone wishes to gain unauthorised access they have to go to the trouble of getting a copy of any registered number plate and sticking on the front of the car and hay presto there in and no way of identifying if they are up to no good. But the baddies won’t think of that.

Seriously though the card reader was simple efficient and reliable, I am not aware of it failing.

The plate reader is far more complicated, has failed numerous times and has cost thousands of your money to put in place.

They will probably tell you it’s all been done for free like the boundary fence, woodwork painting and so on. I don’t think so.

I see the Minutes are being issued, interesting to see the vast majority of the proxy’s had been held by Mileniun. Is this legal? It certainly stinks

I also note they used a significant number of the Bank’s properties as proxy votes, are the banks aware of this and is this legal, as I thought block votes are not allowed under Spanish law?
