Colonies Inefficiency Yet Again

Hope everyone is having a good Summer and getting to enjoy the swimming pool!

I have received multiple emails concerning the distribution of the August 2013 Colonies Crier to resident co-owners and residents.  The issues they received had labels clearly belonging to that of an investor co-owner!  If the Colonies was trying to foster some sort of buddy program among resident co-owners and investor co-owners, the VERY least they could do would be to publish an article in the Colonies Crier alerting people to this 'partnership' vs. sharing what could be private information!!

With metro and much other development coming to the area that will hopefully mean positive 'increased' returns on our investments, The Colonies needs to represent itself as a community more efficiently (and, us the co-owners as they are our representatives too - our $525/month says so).  They can start with their pathetic website (http://www.thecolonies.com/)...  Basic spell check alone (see below) and fact our community boards discussions are about topics such as building(s) not having been worked on in over 15 years (our condo fees again going MORE toward elevated salaries and not the betterment of the community) and tagless cars on the property!  The only way we as a community will be able to move forward with the times is to have the Colonies professionally managed with a MANAGEMENT Company!  All I can ask is you think of your investment(s) in these changing times!

Whatever happened to the Smoking petition to cease smoking in the Office that was sent around sometime ago?  With the number of unit sales in recent months, it would be interesting to see what the results would be.  The Smoking in the Administration Building and the Clubhouse is most appalling!  The time to think of your investment and community is now!
