How much could a collection agency cost? Half a mil is a lot to be lost each year and it seems like it would be worth the investment even if we recovered 1 or $200,000. The LA website states electrical upgrades will start this month on Forrest Glenn and Blue Aspen.


anon -- you're right --- now la gets nothing in most cases and once people get behind in a payment or two they will never catch up-- then they all but abandon their property -- any thing la recovers through a collection agency is more than they get now and when word spreads that the CA is after members it may get others to pay up rather than let their dues slip into default and have a CA after them-- the thing is the bod doesn't have a better method to collect default payments and no one on staff wants to be a bad guy and do it so it's either ignore the problem ( which they're doing now) or get a collection agency -- not hard to figure out

it would be nice to have a count on the number of properties that this crew is doing in a given period of time -- there is no accountability for this work progress or the lateral work progress -- the bod says we're doing these jobs -- well then they should back it up with numbers otherwise 10 years down the road we're still doing these projects and the members are still paying the bills--- members need to have accountability and so far there is none-- how many people would hire a contractor to do a job at their home without some idea of the contractors progress and accounting of the job -- you just hire them and they work and keep sending you a bill as they see fit -- NO ONE WOULD DO THAT -- WHY DOES THE LA BOD THINK THEY CAN OPERATE THIS WAY--

  1. Comments about accountability of projects is right in line. NO company or homeowner has work done without an estimate and a schedule of work thru completion. On the lateral project I'd bet if a property owner asked how many laterals are complete no one could give you a number. The previous manager had no control of the contractor doing the work and all he seemed to do was sign checks then, when the contractor left, admitted to po's that we were ripped off!!!!...Are we headed down the same road? With no property manager and relying on the board to run the projects are we headed for more disasters??What excuse is the bod using to still not have a manager, do they think they can do a better job running the place from home and are they available 24/7?? With what's going on on Wall Sreet and with the government not bailing out anybody who will bail out Lake Adventure when our funds are exhausted do to miss-spending and mis-management, or I should say no management.

  2. Can anyone tell me if we have a manager yet? I hate calling down to the office, I never get straight answers. Do we know how many people were interviewed. The LA website says interviews where held on the 20th are they only going to interview people for one day? I think they should meet with any possible manager more than one time. What if the guy was a smooth talker and we end up stuck with some idiot all over again.

    Not that i'm trying to be a ball buster put Im scared that they are just gonna go for someone that will work cheap so that they can micro-manage. I would rather pay a little more for someone that knows what they are doing.

    Who is over seeing all the projects we have going on? I'm really not sure who to trust, BOD, CCLA or whatever. Talk about a test of faith.
