wi-fi yes or No



 TO WI-FI OR NOT TO WI-FI, THAT IS THE QUESTION.


The UCO budget review at the clubhouse today turned out to be a non-event which lasted only 10 minutes.  The most important issue was the elimination of $377,000 originally appropriated for Wi-Fi in the earlier budget draft and taken out of the 2015 budget in this version;  thus saving the residents $6.00.    This budget version will increase UCO dues $3.09 per resident per month; a far cry from the $17.00 increase proposed at the last delegate assembly. Thanks to Howard O'Brien and Edward Grossman who helped tweak the 2015 budget, we are now at a reasonable increase.  However, David Israel is still going to try to sneak Wi-Fi into the budget.

So BEWARE, and BE CAREFUL. The fox is planning his next move.  He will try to intimidate the residents into putting Wi-Fi back.   It will be up to the delegates to stop him.  Someone must make a motion to transfer the money from Wi-Fi to the reserve fund, and the motion must be passed by the delegates. This will ensure that at this time, Wi-Fi will not be included in the budget.

The rumors swirling round this meeting are;

  1. If you anger David Israel he will arrange to have your TV turn off. 
  2. Marilyn Gorodetzer quit the chair of the advisory Committee and then Unquit.
  3. There is a warrant out for David Israel for his actions in the Road debacle.
  4. Association Wi-Fi don't work, but if it does then we are just making Comcast richer.
  5. Of Course Village wide Wi-Fi is not good for Comcast bottom line
  6. The bid opening showed the low bidder at $1 million, which was rejected as too high, go back and sharpen your pencils was the mantra.

    1. The bid opening was last week. It was public if you were in the room. If David Israel had bothered to read this blog, he would of known that the bids would exceed $1 million. What does he expect?
