There were no costs in writing supplied with the EGM agenda and plans. There was a reply to a question over the phone to the SM that the project would cost ‘upwards of 70 grand’. Sorry if I misled you, kind contributors.
Just to repeat, in a sense, there’s a clique traditionally holding lots of proxies which keep others off the EC and out of the process. There’s a history. They cynically try to slip things like this through, most of the time to STOP stuff being done rather than, in this instance, to get stuff done. Most owners have gotten tired and given up trying to be involved, blindly handing over their proxies and the place has generally gone downhill as a result. The SM, only when lent on, will stop stuff that is blatantly beyond the pale. Such as at the last Annual General Meeting when the EC wanted the meeting to ‘approve’ an addition to the agenda, on the night, to spend up to 40 grand the get started, with no plans circulated and no quote circulated. So, yes, this is their second go and they still ‘don’t get it’.
But I’ve said too much.
There are any number of things wrong here, including money being wasted all over the place you’ll just have to take my word for it.
I really was interested in how to stop this meeting, stop the steamroller, until everything is out in the open and enough owners really know what’s going to be done and how much it will cost. Only seems the right thing to me.
