WHAT THE HECK IS GOING ON?

     It seems as if every time I am gone from the Village that all hell breaks loose, so hang on to your hats as I will be gone thru the 25th of August! And the question remains - when will we ever learn and act on what is right in front of our noses?
     So now we have  a CAM situation. Our Village is now without a general manager as to the physical plant, as to one who will deal immediately with a crisis and with governmental and private company officials who will be there . We now have another situation wherein we have a UCO, we have UCO officers, but where are they? Cornish seems to never be here and is always postponing her committees which she oversees, Joy Vestal looks like hell and is so torn between UCO and The Rag that she does neither any justice, Bob Marshall? Well, "nuff said on that, and then there is Fausto.
     Rumor has it that Fausto had much to do with the "quitting" of  Herle, our Cam. It is said that it was either quit or be fired and the constant interference of Fausto in the CAM's area of responsibility was quite hard to tolerate. If this is incorrect, then please send me the facts. The fact is, that we know nothing and have to find out things in a backwards way and why, because UCO and David Israel and Ed Black seem never to learn that there is no hiding what is going on anymore. There are too many eyes and ears and again, I cannot state it often enough - the truth will out!!!
     So what is the truth here? UCO, speak up. David Israel sits there in his backroom like the wizard behind his curtain as he fears to be discovered. Or perhaps it is because he is ashamed at his horrendous display of temper, lack of manners, lack of knowledge of civility, lack of caring about other people, as he tore after and into Lori Torres because she dared to disagree with him about a transportation issue. He ripped into her in front of all people who were in the lobby of the Clubhouse  and not once, but TWICE!!! The issue at hand does not make a difference. What does make a difference is that this is yet another example of Israel's boorishness, of lack of skill in knowing how to behave, how to work with others, how to recognize and appreciate the hard work of others.
     Lori Torres has a thankless job yet she does it well. I have been to a meeting of her committee and it is well attended with people who are strongly invested in this area and the buses. Is there disagreement sometimes? Yes, but so what? She runs a good meeting, moves it along and takes items under advisement and gets back to the people in a timely manner. So who is slowing things down? Who is holding up the repair of the benches OFF the perimeter road? Well, look no further and nowhere else other than our UCO building.
     And that is the problem all over. Look to the UCO building and you will find the roots of the issues. And why are they not asking questions of Eva, who will tell one why more repairs are being made to areas which were repaired in recent times and yet here we go loop de loo, right around again. Again, the pool. Again, the courts, again, everything else and by the way, have we had our coolers checked for Legionnaire's yet? It seems a smart thing to do to me. Just look at NYC which thought it did not have to.
     Our UCO and its officers, for the most part, are now composed of rotten cheesecloth and reeks of inefficiency and what is worse, cruelty and a touch of madness and paranoia, a pretty big touch at that! Term limits, folks, term limits, and the sooner the better and even if we did not get them in time, no more electing of people who are nasty, uncaring, concerned only with establishing and embedding their own little kingdom - whomever they are and wherever they choose to be. They gotta' go. They MUST if we are to have anything here resembling OUR UCO, our administration, and not a puppet being run by the greedy power hungry oligarchs. Must we import the sins of the outside world into ours? Let us stand up for our rights here for it is OUR home that is at risk.
