Subject: Saturday night Whisky party at poolside by outsiders and visitors carpark
| Monday 25th July 2011 To, Mr Ho Chan Wah Head of Maintenance Services Guocoland Malaysia Sdn Bhd Good Morning Mr Ho, Re: Saturday night Whisky party at poolside by outsiders and visitors carpark Avenue Court' Home Owners Manual page 11, item 30.10 Smoking, Food and Drinks A. Smoking, food and drinks are not allowed in the pool and immediate pool deck areas. On my Sunday morning swim I saw the poolside area littered with food packaging, empty whisky bottle and beer cans. Block C residents told me that a group of outsider drove right to poolside and had a party till past mid night. This is the same group of people that comes almost every weekend.
But when residents store their belongings in common areas store rooms, JMC make police report against them. When residents park their car in not allocated parking area, JMC clamp our cars. Remove water meters when maintenance is not paid. What about our security, usage of facility with the maintenance fees that we are paying? But outsiders can do as they like? JMC had used security problems as an excuse for not reopening the changing rooms and yet these people come almost every weekend and JMC is not doing anything. If JMC did I did not see the police report on the notice board and these same group of people are still coming and getting bolder. Visitors Car park Visitors car park were right beside the guard house till recent months. Security personnel could monitor that the visitors were parked at allocated areas. JMC in its attempt to make more money has converted the visitors car park to rental car park for residents. The inner driveway from two lane has been converted into one lane by having more car parks and visitors car park are now located there.(is that legal?) There is no way the security guards are able to monitor visitor's parking. It is too far from the guard house. No security guard will run after the visitors. I am not surprised that the Saturday nite drinkers drove right till poolside. Once they are there, it is virtually impossible to get them to move. Is making more money from residents or safety is the priority here? JMC had been focusing on making more money for the last 10 months rather than security. Changing security contractors does not solve security problems as JMC is making it more difficult for security personnel to do their jobs compounded by the fact there is no lock down at guard house, two sidewalks to by pass guard house, no ID for bike users. JMC had 10 months to make things better but outsiders can still come and go easily. Some committee members has been involve with management for years. Why is JMC not making security as a priority. For months the barrier for bikes entry were down. JMC did nothing. And yes, all JMC members drive pass the guard house everyday and it is impossible not to see that. And the fault for all your security problems are the changing rooms? The problems are the changing rooms? Mr Ho, Mr Chairman Kumar has violated authority protocol in relegating this matter to SPM to answer to my request for valid documents, this matter is a JMB's issue, as Guocoland Sdn Bhd duty is to oversee JMC, kindly please instruct JMC to either provide the documents that I have requested or reopen the changing rooms as per Home Owners Manual. I am sure that you will be able to give many more suggestions to JMC as to security measures. The proper channel of dealing with this matter is first with JMC, then JMB and finally when necessary to Cik Marini of COB, DBKL. Not with SPM. Since Mr Chairman Kumar does not want to deal with issue and you have mentioned that it is the jurisdiction of JMC as per your e mail below, I now refer the matter back to you. As per Mr Chairman Kumar's e mail "Hi Eddie FYA, as I have better thongs to do" You have accepted JMC's excuses without valid documents to proof that they have taken action to resolve security problems but I cannot. I live here and security is of utmost important to me. And still outsider drunkards are using the poolside. Therefore kindly instruct JMC to at least put up some fluorescent and flood lights over the pool area to prevent this from happening again. Reopen the changing rooms and do a lock down at the guard post since they are not taking actions to improve security as 'safety comes first' as per your e mail below. And to remind JMC members to do what they have volunteered to do in fulfilling Guocoland's contractual agreement with home owners. End of story. PS your e mail below after your meeting with JMC
Good-morning, Dear All As per the said meeting with your JMC members, issues have been discussed with details. We concluded that the closing of the said “Changing Room” beside the swimming pool is fully under the jurisdiction of the JMC, as “Safety Come First”. As such, the issue should be considered resolved and closed. Regards Ho |
