NO!!! NO!!!! NO!!!!!

     The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result. In this case, I am not sure who is the more insane - we, "the dedicated few or small group" or David Israel and Co. Again and again, this man continues to strive to bring into the Village things that are not good for it, that are unnecessary strains on its  budget and financial stability, that are only monuments to his egotism and selfishness, his insane drive to "leave a legacy". Well, since he is no relative of mine, nor a friend of mine, nor even a man to admire, I could care less about his "legacy", particularly as it impacts on me and those about whom I care.
     What is even worse is that he cannot distinguish between lies and truth, not even in the statements that come straight out of his mouth. For example, he ran on a campaign plank during his first election, on a firm term limits demand. Then, once he was in the presidential seat, suddenly he campaigned insanely for a retraction of term limits so that he could retain his "power". Then, at a recent meeting, he stated that we need to have term limits! Yup, that is what he said.
    That is one example and here is another. He stated that there was a need to shift the collected Wi Fi funds over to the general reserve funds as there was a definite need for it. Suddenly, there was a shifting around of funds which stinks to high heavens and suddenly, oh, we do not have to do that. Lies, half truths, omissions, etc. The man cannot be trusted with the English language.
     Now we get a video that begins with dramatic music. Truly! Does the man think he is the president of the country, of the state, of the world!!! He then speaks in a somewhat sideways position, mimicking several important historical personages and makes an appeal to the delegates whom he has already lied to, and states that we need to have the Wi Fi funds and program, so get to the DA this Friday. Gimme a break!
     I would like to know who made this video and who funded it? If it used UCO funding or Channel 63 funding then there MUST be a public statement to that effect and then an equal opportunity for the opposition to do the same. But never you mind, it will never be spoken of honestly and there will never be an opening for the opposition of which, contrary to Israel's statements, THERE ARE MANY.
     So - how to vote? NO NO NO!!!!!
     NO TO TRANSFERRING THE FUNDS
     NO TO IMPOSING MORE FEES And remember, this will increase your monthly fees and there is a whole lot more coming down that path.
     NO TO ALLOWING THE FUNDS TO BE MARKED EXPENDABLE. THESE FUNDS ARE NEEDED ELSEWHERE. DESPERATELY.
     So where are they needed? Just look at the list of needs and reserves in The Reporter. Look, for example at the repaving. We need close to 6 million dollars and we have about $600,000. These roads will need redoing very soon and where are we to get the funds that were wasted, stupidly, criminally stupidly, on the job we are now living with. We need all the money we can find, and stick it in that reserve. Look at the fencing needs, etc. Why are we wasting money on Wi Fi when we already have the capability of it, the reality of it.
     NO  ON OPENNING CONTRACT TALKS WITH DSL EXPRESS, THE SAME COMPANY THAT WE REJECTED LAST TIME FOR INCAPABILITY OF FULFILLING THE CONTRACT, FOR INCOMPETENNCE AS EVIDENCED IN A MOST UNSATISFACTORY JOB IN BOCA CV. FOLLOW THE MONEY, FOLKS.
     We have Wi Fi via Comcast for the individuals that want it. We have another option in wiring up associations and many have done that already for a great alternative and a great economic choice. We cannot afford a debt of more millions of dollars to be taken on. We do not have the money, we cannot afford to set it aside for this when there are other more pressing needs, we do not need to invest right now in an field that is changing so rapidly that before it is done, it will be outdated, and we do not need to force this funding on people who do not wish Wi Fi in their homes. This is not a common element of the Village according to the by laws and we should be careful of the new by laws as they will attempt to shoe horn this in right under our noses.
     Delegates, yes, absolutely, come to the assembly. Vote and vote NO NO NO if we are to have a viable Village. We want sellability? We want to command higher value for our apartments? Then do not take on a ridiculous debt and make us a debt ridden Village for then NOBODY will want to live here and people with any sense will bail out. Join those who actually think for themselves, who care about you, the resident, and not about some trumped up personal and selfish "legacy", who wastes our money and who wants to have a police state right here in CV right in the middle of the good old USA. Do not give up your rights. Fight back!!!
     Speak up at the assembly. You do not have to be a delegate to speak. Do not let the little man who thinks he is the Great Leader frighten you. He can do nothing to you. And if he yells or calls you a name - screw him. So what!! Do not hide behind the others who are willing to put themselves out week after week, month after month, and take the abuse. Speak up. Join in. For all our sakes.
   Addendum: Please note that some people have stated that they think that $2 is a great price for Wi Fi. Well, it is , but that is not what the $2 is. That is simply a fee to be collected and the REAL COST of the Wi Fi will be announced after it is too late to pull out and we will be facing millions of dollars of debt to be paid for - AGAIN!If you want a truly reasonable Wi Fi in your Association, then go for the OPT OUT program.
