At
yesterday’s meeting of the committee we took the unprecedented step of
deciding that we would, in UK terms, work to rule. That is for the
immediate future, we will only perform such duties as are legally
required of us. The alternative option was that the entire committee
considered stepping down but this, it was felt, would be exactly what
the minority are aiming for.
The
cause of this decision is the threat by a small minority of owners to
take legal action against all and individual members of the committee.
This is on top of a continuing barrage of inappropriate e-mails and
postings on various forums which have been insulting, inaccurate and
deeply upsetting. This cannot be allowed to continue as it will make
future recruitment to the committee incredibly difficult as few are
likely to volunteer in the face of such vitriol.
In the short term, the two persons at the heart of this campaign have also been banned from our forum.
The
work to rule will continue until such time as all threats of legal
action against committee members are rescinded, there is a public
apology for the nature of their e-mails and forum postings and a
commitment that their future behaviour will conform to socially
acceptable standards.
In the
meantime, the committee’s work will be restricted to emergency
management and matters covered by the Horizontal Property Act.
Regrettably this means that contacts by owners to committee members will
not garner their usual response so please do not expect correspondence to be answered.
The
committee wish to assure all owners that they continue to have the best
interests of Hacienda Riquelme at heart and look forward to an early
return to normality.
