The Crime of the Century


THE REAL CRIME IN CENTURY VILLAGE 

When the UCO bid committee makes a decision to purchase something or pick a contractor, the Officers have the right to override them. This was the case a while Back when the bid committee chose HARDRIVE Company to Pave the Hastings Clubhouse.   At the time, M&M Co was paving our roads.  HARDRIVE”S bid was a few thousand dollars lower, and M&M was doing a poor job with the paving  and  the bid committee naturally chose HARDRIVE.

Roger Carver, our CAM at the time wanted M&M to do the job, and he told M&M the price of HARDRIVE’S bid which M&M matched.  (This was illegal, of course)

Roger Carver then went to the UCO Officers and convinced them to have M&M do the job because they were already in the village.  Some of the Officers on the bid committee had knowledge of why HARDRIVE was the better choice, yet they voted to override the bid committee and give the job to M&M. The bid committee was furious yet there was nothing they could do.

I am relating this to you because I want you to understand how the people you entrust to take decisions for you are so easily swayed.  Some of the UCO Officers are famous for not understanding what they are voting for. Too often they vote with THE CROWD, and this causes the delegates, who have the final say on many issues to do the same.

When the President and the UCO Officers sit on the podium and recommend a vote, the delegates tend to follow suit.  This is the real crime in Century Village. 

There is only one Officer, I can commend because she does not influence the delegates into voting a certain way. She alone gives them all the information to allow them to make a choice. That Officer is Dorothy Tetro.

  1. Thank you for making the residents aware of the integrity of Dorothy Tetro. It is also a crime that some friends of David are trying to remove a trusted and honest treasurer.
