| I agree. In my opinion too much money has been spent to "sway" the vote. There was also the 3-page letter on quality letterhead which went out to owners a few weeks ago. Standard copy paper could have delivered the same message--or even an email to all owners. And the postage to mail these materials was not insignificant. Full-page ads in the local papers have also been placed to deliver the same message! It would be interesting if we could get an accounting of how much money has been spent in total on this campaign. | ||||||

For reference, the above message is a reply to a message where: good mornin' marty, just using your last post to mention something that really bothers my wife & i about how this referendum thing has gone.... after getting our glossy package from the association begging us to go for the big wazoo rebuild, we have a few comments/observations about the whole process. 1. we'd like to thank all the people who have put in the time/effort to attend the meetings and make insightful comments about the whole process, pro or con....(joe, norm katz, as well as yourself provide good point/counterpoint comparisons are people that come to mind first....there are many others i'm sure)....we really appreciate your unselfish effort....there are salient points for each argument.... 2. as people who have been here a long time, we're still on the fence as to how we will cast our ballot....but we are well informed with respect to all possible alternatives..... our big concern about the whole thing is how the association/bd of directors handled the referendum process.....we don't feel that it is their charge to direct the population in one direction or another with respect to what they feel is the most desirable outcome for every situation....just a fair, unbiased revealing of alternatives would have been sufficient.....it was not necessary to waste more association money trying to get non-resident owners vote yes by inserting the "glossy." we'd like to know what the cost was to the association for that spiffy package that wasn't needed to get an honest vote from the membership.....actually, the "glossy" may be more apt to make people vote NO just to see what happens next....that would make norm happy!!! have a great weekend, terry |
