MY LETTER TO THE BOARD SPEAKS TO THE SITUATION:
DATE: June
6, 2018
TO: WPA
BOARD
FROM: Madeline
Y. Claveloux
RE: DEPLORABLE
CONDITION OF UNBUILT LOTS UNDER
CONTRACT
TO BE MOWED BY THE GROUNDS
CONTRACTOR,
UNDER THE DIRECTION AND
SUPERVISION
OF BOARD MEMBER MCMILLIN
CC: The
Wedgefield Examiner
The lot directly adjacent to our home at
168 William Screven has not been mowed since early last fall. Weeds are knee high, and some trees that have
popped up due to the lack of maintenance, are about 3 feet high. The weeds are seeding themselves in the flower
bed that runs along the lot line. We
have paid our landscaper additional funds to spray the weeds in our bed and
along the lot line. We’ve invested over
$1,500 in pine straw and for the labor to put it down. We are responsible lot owners! We
are right back to weeds!
The owner of the lot has, and continues
to be a good neighbor. Last year, when
he visited the lot to list it for sale, he came and apologized for the poor
conditions, saying he had trusted his contract with the WPA. He then secured a private contractor to come
and remedy the situation. Why does the
Board allow McMillin to continue in his role with this poor management?
Board Member McMillin is negligent in
maintaining properties that owners contracted to mow, and keep their properties
within ARC requirements of property maintenance. The entire board is disregarding their duties
required in our governing documents, in allowing him to continue year after
year to manage these subcontracts with the WPA, and allowing these conditions
to exist.
