some general updates...

few updates like to share w residents...

security matter - on 20/8/2011 saturday morning abt 2am, 2 outsiders sneaked in with their motorcycle (thru the gap in between the entrance long bar & guard house), but the night guard detected it, he view from cctv & found out they were scouting residents' motorcycles at the blk k ground, he went there immediately to question them, & as they can't give the good reason why they r here, he took down their particular & contact his supervisor, & later on alerted the police, the 2 guys left but their particular have been passed to police, we will send the photo too after we print it out. special thanks to the guard for the good job.

maintenance matters - as usual there's always maintenance requests that the office need to attend to, but 1 particular case worth mentioning here, we have managed to fix the clips for the gutter behind the blk k lift (facing the motor parking area), this gutter in fact posted safety hazard for few week coz total abt 5 clips (from ground flr to 5th flr) has been missing, it has big possible of falling if high pressure applied on it if there's heavy rain (it's function is to drain out the blk k roof top rain water), but we has struggle for not getting vendor to fix coz it's a dangerous job, thank God lastly thru blk j renovator ah poh's help, some Bangladesh workers set up 10 set of staging (to cover ground flr to 5th flr) to get the clip fixed, cost us RM650.

water tank - 1 water tank at blk j is fixed, now vendor is doing the 2nd unit, at the same time the repaired 1 is closely monitored, once detect any leaking again will quickly patch again...., we have arranged with the vendor after he has done all the water repair, he should come & check it on quarterly basis.

car parking - have managed to convince the blk k 20th flr resident to park his car outside, so as now most of the similar cases have been solved, except the Malay cycling guy, he has told us he's going to rent a lot for his 2nd car, as we check with office, seems not done yet...., got to settle it soon coz residents have complained already, actually deal with cases like this is quite time consuming & tiring too.

rental lot - at the moment we do manage to rent out abt 40 lots for residents who hv more than 1 car, in other words it has generated abt RM2000 extra monthly income for the management fund, for us this is not a small money, at the moment we are trying to get the unused empty land behind the rental parking lot, to "borrow" from related authority & convert it to abt 20 parking lot, then another RM1000/mth will be within sight..., but it still got long way to go...

office renovation - it's already completed (except some minor touch up here & there), it took such a long time coz the arrangement was progressive payment, ie they completed something & we paid them that completed job, this is to make sure we won't go back to the position before where we were burdened by too much debt.

house rules - the new set of house rules has been done according to the EGM decision, now getting ppl to proof read, we should be able to distribute to residents by end of August, well, last EGM residents did decide on some new rules, now, we face the new challenge of putting them into practice, new rules such as tyre wheel clamping, no item at corridor, no pets, etc, hope we will hv full cooperation from our residents in this issue, coz house rules is to serve the common benefit of all the residents.

thanks.
