Notice in relation to fire upgrade works at Aras na Cluaine
The following documents Aras na Cluaine Management Companys understanding
of the current position as at 2pm Friday 25th February
The builders have verbally told us that they are confident that they will
complete the necessary remediation works in time to prevent any action on
behalf of the fire officer.
An inspection of the complex by the architect took place last Wednesday,
at that inspection several additional requests where made of the builder.
A further inspection and final signoff by the architect is due to take
place this evening and the builder is confident of a positive outcome.
Following signoff by the architect, it is our understanding that the
completed certification documentation will be provided to the fire
officer.
The fire officer has informed us verbally that he is under no obligation
to inspect the complex following the sign-off by the architect. You may
read into this what you will, our understanding is though that he is
likely to inspect the complex early next week once he has received the
certification from the architect.
Additionaly it is our understanding that there will be no further court
action this Monday and assuming the fire officer is happy with the
architects signoff the eviction notice should be cancelled and in the eyes
of the fire officer this episode will come to a close.
Throughout this drawn out episode the Residents Committee and laterly the
Management Comapany since its takeover in July 2010, has consistantly
worked towards a resolution to these issues in the best interest of the
owners and residents of the complex.
It has not always been possible to continuously inform all owners and
residents as to our position but rest assured where necessary we have
taken legal advice and following this advice made our decisions based on
our collective judgements and the greater good of the complex. We believe
that the outcome to this episode, while drawn out has resulted in a safer
and more secure complex.
While next Monday a distressing chapter in Aras na Cluaine's history may
come to a close there may still be dark days ahead. The complex is still
in a distressed state and huge amounts of work are required to bring it up
to the standard that those who live there demand. To do this work finance
is required. The management company have taken the decision that from the
1st of April 2011 cars that are not registered for parking at Aras na
Cluaine but are consistantly parking there or cars of owners or tenants of
owners who have refused to come to an arrangement with the management
company in relation to thier management fees may be clamped. In addition
to this we may also be forced to name and shame those owners who have
refused to engage with the management company and pay their fees.
We regret that we have had to make this decision but for the greater good
of the complex we believe that it is necessary.
Yours Faithfully
Aras na Cluaine Management Company

MUD Bill
The MUD Bill passed the final phase in the Dail late last week.
There is an additional procedural step which means that it needs to go back to the Seanad which will hopefully happen in the next couple of days following that the President will sign it into Law.
This will help us in dealing with collections and should give us much more power to sort our problems out.
This is the bill before amendments, the new version will be available soon.
