HRGR Gardening WARS

SCPs,

I regret that I have been put in the position where I must apologise for the 
invasion of your privacy through a number of unsolicited e-mails.

It is difficult to find the right balance between having access to sub-community 
presidents via their official e-mail addresses and being able to curtail the 
excesses of those who have their own agendas - and I wish that I had the answer.

In the current situation, there is a difference between the promotion of an 
opposing point of view.....and sending a stream of unsolicited e-mails which simply 

end up by being counter productive as most recipients get so annoyed with them 

that the e-mails are rightly consigned to the bin.

Indeed, one of our S-C Ps has become so disenchanted by these unwanted e-mails 
that, regrettably, he/she has resigned.

We really do need to correct this miss-information within the community. 

 
Firstly, the notice of a meeting of owners has to be officially called by 
Resortalia and placing it in a low level communication just will not do.
 
If someone has an alternative viewpoint from the 
Committee, then it is incorrect that their alternative 
views "should be rightly consigned to the bin" as Nigel directs.


 
Also when each SCP was elected they clearly signed data protection forms
 for the use of the SCP email accounts to be used and as such any email 
sent to the SCP email address to do with the community is not 
"unsolicited". If individual SCP's do not want to receive correspondence
 on key owner issues then they really are in the wrong roles and need to
 resign.

In terms of the latest saga then Pedro is the gardening 
subject matter expert as he designed a number of PW resorts and the 
committee would be wise to work with locals rather than constantly 
against them. As I recall the same fundamental mistakes arose with the 
sub community cleaning contracts where we were constantly told they 
could not be performed any cheaper. A local supplier subsequently 
reduced the costs by 70%. 

 In closing, surely artificial grass would be a compromise to the PW 
strips, an idea raised by a number of owners two years ago but that was 
from an owner not on the committee.
