general updates as at 22/11/14

few matters to update our beloved Vista residents,

1) lift T&G system, so far the feedback from the blog readers is generally positive, we did also check with some of our residents personally, they too feel OK with the proposal, well, we will wait for more green light then if all condition are right, we should get something going at the beginning of yr2015.

2) blk j lift rope, the faulty lift rope was replaced awhile ago, performed some test run, then contacted the lift inspector to inspect the new rope (according to the requirement) & he too ok with the rope,so now at blk J, both lifts are running, but we are also budget for new rope for other lift in yr2015, and we asked the lift vendor to monitor the condition of the other ropes, and should not wait for the sudden breakdown case like this.

3) theft at blk j, few days ago we received a report that someone force-opened the seat of a bike & stole some parts of the bike at blk j ground bike parking area, we advised the owner of the bike to make police report & we did check the CCTV the next day. We found out the camera which suppose to cover the bike where the bike part was stolen, someone has purpose turned the camera faced the ceiling but not the bikes, so now we have contacted the CCTV vendor to use other cameras at blk j to check who's the person turned the camera, and bring him to police for further investigation, will update residents on this once more info available.

4) building repainting matter, someone asked in the last posting any news on the repainting, well, as we have said earlier, we were advised by YB to apply next year, but anyhow, few days ago we brought the documents for fund application for both water tank & repainting to EXCO office for them to consider, and to our pleasant surprise we were told one meeting will be set in 2 weeks' time for the YBs in charge to have further discussion with us on the matter, we hope to hear some good news from them :)

but if (just in case) they agree to our request for the building repainting (abt 450K) or water tank lining (abt 220K for 8 tanks), then we need to contribute 20% of the total cost as soon as possible, so guys, any idea how to get the money ready :P

thanks.
