As the manic holiday season goes to an end and HRGR starts to settle back down to the 50 or so full time residents within the resort, then its time to sit back and assess the bigger picture.
Funding
Certainly the HRGR resort is better than some and even worse than others. The current community fees pay for the security, gardening, pools and general upkeep of the resort based on an inherited transfer from PW. This would be all well and good however the general maintenance of the resort is now showing clear signs of huge potential costs for the future:
- Some roads are starting to sink
- No buildings have ever been repainted in the last 8 years and are showing signs of lack of upkeep
- The builders actions of fixes required is long and there is little money available to start even for the minor issues
- The recent quote for the fixes at 6 Million euros looks very low
- Irrigation of the gardens keep rising and rising
Communications
Owners communications are virtually non existent with good news only ever reported and spun.
A clear example is the debtors situation which was last updated in December 2013! Why no updates in the last 9 months ?????
And of course the resort presidents newsletters have disappeared!
Time and time again the Committee does not inform all owners, does not let owners participate on the key issues and the dog-eat-dog culture continues even with the recent sacking of the resort president with constant back stapping within the Committee.
As ever we believe times are a changing for the best, for the worse, time will tell.
Workers Compound
Still no changes to the Workers Compound mess that owners look out onto:
Warm regards
HRGR Owners and Sub Community Presidents that care!
