In the February Reporter a comment jumped off the page at most of us, I quote: “I have decided to seek another term as President, especially since I feel a moral obligation to see the Arbitration with WPRF to its conclusion”.
Mr. President, what about your moral obligation to uphold the responsibilities of the office of PRESIDENT, and follow the Millennium Agreement? See page 26, item 11. “Defense: Any attack on the terms and/or conditions of this Agreement by any third party shall be jointly defended by UCO and Management Company. EACHY PARTY shall vigorously defend this agreement.” Does your filing a suit against WPRF to create a Registry (and a rent strike) fulfill THIS moral obligation of which you speak?
What about your moral obligation to inform your constituents of your failing to properly fund existing expenses of UCO? Let’s just suppose the SOIL EROSION PROBLEM, that you have only approved funding for at a mere $ 500,000.00, really costs, not the guess of $ 3,000,000.00, but in reality $ 6,000,000.00. We now only have 10% of the funding available and the deficit you have permitted is 100% on UCO’s annual budget. Deficit now, and possibly growing: 5,500,000.00
Lest we forget you also extended the “Paving Reserve fund", without any authorization or justification whatsoever, for an additional 3 years. All the while FAILING to obtain estimates for the $ 4,000,000.00 to repave the entire village roadway, based on:
Cost of living increases of more than 3% yearly during the 9 years of this fund life.
Cost of oil by-products, that have increased by more than 66% in the 9 year fund life.
Cost of insurance increases contractors must pay for public liability, etc.
Cost of the removal of some of the roadbed prior to resurfacing, knowing all too well this was NEVER a part of the estimate, but must be included to correct the flooding and trip hazard that currently exists and will worsen if we resurface without removing some existing surface areas.
Will this also create a new deficit item? Certainly! This blank check amount could reach another 4,000,000.00 that will continue to grow as you read.
How do we consider reelecting someone who sidesteps these very important and costly issues?
Total amount of under funded items:
Legal Case WPRF versus Loewenstein and Arbitration: Close to $ 300,000.00
Paving Reserve: $ 4,000,000.00
Soil Erosion $ 5,500,000.00
Total amount $ 9,800,000.00
Almost 2 times the annual budget of UCO!
P l e a s e, is t h e r e another Candidate for PRESIDENT out there?

Loewenstein for PRESIDENT?

WPRF vs George Loewenstein Federal case
As you may be aware, WPRF filed a law suit in the 15th. Judicial Circuit Court, Palm Beach County, against UCO President George Loewenstein, on the grounds of Failure to make Rental payments and Tortious Interference with other Lessees Rental Payments due on the Rec. facilities lease. George Loewenstein had the case moved to the United States District Court Southern District of Florida, The Federal Bench, before Judges Hopkins and Hurley. The Case Number is; 07-81063-CIV-DTKH. This case can be fully researched on the PACER Federal Courts Filing system.
On January 16th. 2008, Judge Hurley Found that the Federal Court has no Juris Diction in this case and Remanded it back to the State Court; of particularly ominous import is that George Loewenstein was found liable for Attorneys fees incurred. One can only shudder at the thought that should the Arbitration in progress fail, and if we find "ourselves" back in front of this Judge on the larger matter of the Clubhouse case; how might this judge find???
Please advise if there are any questions, as I have examined all the documents in the case which is now closed!
Dave
