Oct-Dec 2013 Maintenance Charge - Reversed to 1.2 Rs per sq ft

[Rose Garden Managing Committee]

Dear Owners,

 

As you are aware, the maintenance invoice for Oct - Dec 2013 was generated considering 2 Rs per sq ft as per the resolution passed in the EGM held on 22nd Sept 2013.

Unfortunately few members who participated in the EGM discussion of revision of the maintenance levy, have paid the maintenance at varied rates such as 1.7 and 1.2 thus violating EGM's decision.

They have also caused confusion among majority of the owners on the revision of maintenance charges. As a result, we have not received maintenance charges from more than 50% of owners.

Also, due to inconsistency in maintenance charges paid by owners, few owners who have paid at the rate of 2 Rs per sq ft have requested to refund the excess amount paid.

 

While we sincerely thank the owners who adhered to the decision of general body by paying the maintenance charges at the rate of 2 Rs per sq ft as specified in the Oct-Dec 2013 invoice, it will not be fair if the association enriches from those who paid the new levy and subsidize those short paid.

 

Therefore, the association will refund all those owners who paid above Rs 1.2 per sq ft. i.e. the owners who have paid at the rate of 2 Rs per sq ft will receive a refund of the excess paid up to 0.8 Rs per sq ft or as the case may be. 

 

The excess amount paid towards Oct-Dec 2013 maintenance charges will be deducted in the Jan-Mar 2014 Maintenance bill.

 

Regards,

Outgoing MC

Outgoing MC,

In the best interest of Rose Garden Apartments Owners' Association, it is essential that the EGM dated 22nd September 2013 be declared null and void ab initio. Consequently, ALL Resolutions including ratification of expenses in Audit Report 2012-2013 should stand voided and a fresh analysis should be done by all members.

You cannot reverse only one decision/ resolution based on a backlash from a member of ex-MC. That person is only diverting the attention of members and side stepping reply to issues of financial mismanagement by ex-MC.

Please scratch out all the resolutions and decisions passed at the said EGM so that the said EGM is voided in totality, the consequent acrimony is obliterated and the status quo ante is maintained.

Look forward to this positive step from you ;

Regards,

Mihir Sinai Kakodkar

This is not at all the way a committee is formed and then dissolved. We all know that for every action there is equal & opposite reaction, we see this even in the parliaments of developed countries, so no hard feelings. But that does not mean that ruling party / committee just like that gives away and if it does, that means there was something wrong or else the committee itself was waiting for such an situation. Having done such a wonderful start we never expected such a abrupt discontinuation. Under the present circumstance I hope everybody would really appreciate the team sprit of the previous MC who have somehow at least hold the responsibilities for two consecutive years. Of course the current MC also had the burden to sort out some of the issues of previous MC but I am sure that everybody will agree that it will be the sole responsibility for the previous MC to sort it out.

 

Actually if we analyze we do not see any major issue that called for dissolution of the current MC, the only reason was that few members were supporting for the hike in maintenance charges and few were not, but for all this there is solution which would have been sorted by way of an proper justification & reconciliation. Nobody can be that obstinate to totally refuse the current MC's proposal.

 

We all know that no committee is here to act as per whims & fancies of each and every individual, but the MC is supposed to work within the guidelines of the frame work and we all owners are supposed to support their efforts. Also its not at all required for non MC members to get into day to day functions of the MC nor it is required for some members to write lengthy emails as this will not give any result but just drag the issue or make the MC / other members sick of it , however collective suggestions if any can be reviewed during the quarterly review meetings. Having said this a thorough quarterly review has to be made and finalized then & there itself with prior consensus from the owners. Frequent or quarterly reviews are very essential and are always very effective to senses the actual status/affairs of RGA. 

 

RGA community is well matured and value their investment made, this is one of the reason why we see instant reactions when something's goes wrong at RGA, but we lack in accepting the reality. Todays reality is that we cannot accept the sudden rise in maintenance charges and it is a normal tendency of any Indian individual to react, but if the same was done stage-wise then we would have accepted to pay even much higher. So rather then internally fighting we should look at the issue and the ways to sort it out. If we do not have proper solution to tackle this , then this situation would come for any MC and there will be no end to dissolution of MC's over MC's.  

 

In my earlier email also I had given a solution to tackle this situation, now with some tentative estimates I here by attach a simple working were everyone can review and give their suggestions, and if found suitable to implement we need to take a call as to from when we can commence this model. I would appreciate if some finance guy can look into this model and add value in proper modeling it. But what every stand ( with justifications ) any MC takes it should be firm and not like somebody will say I will pay 1.7 and some 1.9 , then in such a situation there is no need of MC.

 

Think positively for betterment for future.

 

Best Regards

Royston Fernandes

Outgoing MC,

The EGM dated 22nd September 2013 was held without sending us a Notice. Some other members too did not receive the Notice. Further, the Agenda was not circulated in advance and the issues discussed and resolutions passed at EGM were not circulated to members as part of any Agenda. As such the decisions and resolutions thereupon are illegal and unmaintainable.

As such all resolutions passed at the said EGM are ab initio null and void.

You cannot reverse only one decision/ resolution based on a backlash.

Please scratch out all the resolutions and decisions passed at the said EGM so that the said EGM is voided in totality, the consequent acrimony is obliterated and the status quo ante is maintained.

Look forward to this positive step from you ;
