[200William-EC SP67851] Updated Sinking Fund Forecast

Thu Dec 18 07:48:58 EST 2014

I'm. it sure what you mean by auctioned.  The thread is about the sin king fund update. an indication of a meeting in the new year to discuss. Andrew has opined that he believes the strata fees are high and does not believe that we should charge for cages. I countered that the best person to give us a real idea of the finances going forward is Ed.

Other the. Ed giving an update which he has indicated he will do in the New Year I'm not sure there's anything else to do. we can ,one on cages once a price is decided.

>>> Our strata fees are extremely high and now we want to add more fees for storage cages (which are normally provided in most apartment buildings to my knowledge). I can’t imagine that increasing levies to cover upgrading common areas would be palatable to most so we must find another way. This is probably not the best time of year to embark on this project as lots of us are very busy with the festive season but I think a meeting early in the New Year would be a good idea. We also need to think of someone to head up the project now that Rohan is leaving us. Just for the record my wife (Anne) has now retired and would be happy to do some work on this. She has a great creative flair and is well organised.
