San Antonio Creekside Association, Inc.

EACH YEAR WHEN IT WAS TIME TO PAY THE DUES I PAID THEM, 5 YEARS NOW COMING UP TO 6 YRS IN JANUARY. LAST YEAR A NEW MANAGEMENT GROUP TOOK OVER THE ACCOUNT AND RIGHT AWAY THEY SENT A LETTER EXPRESSING THE AGGRESSIVENESS OF THE HOMEOWNERS ASSOCIATION TO COLLECT THE DUES.THEN BEFORE THEY WERE EVEN DUE, I RECEIVED A LETTER FROM SPECTRUM OF WHAT THEY INTENDED TO DO TO ME IF I DID NOT PAY MY DUES. I TOOK IT AS A THREAT! MAYBE IT WAS, BUT I HAVE ALWAYS PAID MY DUES ANYWAY BUT WHY DID I GET THIS LETTER????? (THIS RUDE LETTER THAT NO ONE EVEN HAD THE GUTS TO SIGN)
NOW I AM LOOKING AT ANOTHER PROBLEM. I HAVE ALREADY SENT $1000.00 AND ABOUT TO BUMP IT ANOTHER $200.00, AND I SEE THIS BEAUTIFUL CLUBHOUSE THAT I THOUGHT WAS PART MINE ALSO JUST LIKE ALL OTHER REESIDENTS HERE.APPROACHING JANUARY $1200.OO IVE SENT IN AND I HAVE TO NOW RENT THE CLUBHOUSE?????????????????
THE CLUBHOUSE THAT I HELPED PAY FOR??????????? I CAN UNDERSTAND THE DEPOSIT OF 100.00 BECAUSE SOME PEOPLE WONT CLEAN UP, BUT RENT???? WHO THOUGHT UP THIS IDEA????? SPECTRUM???? IS THE ASSOCIATION HAVING TO RENT IT TO HAVE THEIR MEETINGS?????
ANSWER?? TO COVER COST??? WHAT COST??? THATS WHY WE PAY DUES ISNT IT???THEN WHERE ARE THE REST OF THE DUES GOING IN THE UPCOMING YEAR???
THERE POSSIBLY CANT BE A REASONABLE EXPLAINATION FOR THIS!!!

SPECTRUM-CLUBHOUSE

AS FAR AS THE LETTERS FOR DUES. I THINK SPECTRUM WANTS TO MAKE IT VERY CLEAR THAT IF YOU DO NOT PAY, THAT THERE ARE PENALTIES. THE REASON FOR THAT BECAUSE ONCE UPON A TIME ALMOST 1/3 OF THE RESIDENTS IN CREEKSIDE WERE IN ARREARS. THATS WHAT TOOK SO LONG FOR THE CLUBHOUSE TO GET STARTED.(LACK OF FUNDS)AND IF YOU PAY YOUR DUES ON TIME, DON'T WORRY ABOUT THE CONSEQUENCES. AS FAR AS THE CLUBHOUSE A 100.00 DEPOSIT IS REASONABLE FOR CLEANUP AND OR DAMAGES. NOW AS FAR AS RENTING FOR PERIODS OF TIME????? I DO KNOW IF YOU PLAN ON SERVING ALCOHOL THERE SHOULD BE A FEE. AND THE FEE IS TO PAY FOR AN OFF DUTY PEACE OFFICER TO STAND BY AND KEEP THE PEACE IN CASE OF AN INCIDENT ETC..BY I AGREE WITH YOU, IF YOU ARE NOT GOING TO SERVE ALCOHOL IE.. KIDS PARTY ETC.. THEN ALL YOU SHOULD HAVE TO DO SIGN YOUR NAME. BUT IF ALCOHOL IS FOUND ON SITE, THEN YOU SHOULD LOSE YOUR DEPOSIT, NO EXEPTIONS...AND ALL PRIVELEDGES TO RENT AGAIN.. OR TO SAVE ALL THE HASSLE, JUST PAY TO RENT AND ALWAYS HAVE A POLICE OFFICER ON SITE TO AVOID ANY DISCREPENCIES, PROTECT OUR INVESTMENT, KEEP PEOPLE WHO ARE NOT IN THE PARTY GROUP AWAY, AND TO WATCH VEHICLES IN PARKING LOT... A SMALL PRICE TO PAY FOR ALL INTENSE AND PURPOSES A HASSLE FREE EVENT.....MAYBE SOMETHING TO BRING UP AT THE NEXT MEETING. I MYSELF WOULD ALWAYS HAVE A POLICE OFFICER MONITORING ANY EVENT WHEN THE DOORS OF THE CLUBHOUSE ARE OPEN, ESPECIALLY WHEN ALCOHOL PRESENT, JUST MAKES GOOD COMMON SENSE.

renting club house

Hello, The (so called rent) is to cover the cost of water and electric when you use the club house. Depends on the hrs you use. But the cost could go up or down. We really don't know what the bills will be until we have used it on a regular basis. I don't believe it is right to let other homeowners pay the electric and water through dues when its not their party. The club house is great and cheap. Feel free to come to the board meeting and we will go further with this discussion. Thanks.W.C.
PS: Meeting Sept. 19th 7:00 P.M. at the clubhouse.

C'MON

GET OVER IT......
