Jimmy, ok, third time lucky.
JustAsking, in answer to your query, the SC member wants to do what he calls a small maintenance job for $1,000 involving metalwork (not gardening, not plumbing, not electrical and not cleaning). I understand that wants to do more (metal and building) work as it is needed. And it is needed given the inactivity of the earlier committee. (That more work is needed is agreed by all).
The facts for the above job are:
1. No quote was offered, just a figure of $1,000 (even though 3 times I asked for a detailed quote) and
2. No confirmation of public liability (“PL”) insurance was forthcoming. In fact when I raised the issue for the 3rd time I was told that he doesn’t think “this small job” warrants PL insurance but if I insist, he’ll get it but only if the OC pays for it.
