Hi Bob , Are you in agreement with the general consensus that Levy owes the unit owners 12 or 13 million dollars for lack of use of facilities. Give or take a million. Mike

Mike, thank you for your question and your concern for the unit owners. I read your note previously but then got caught up in answering another question and neglected to address yours. Sorry.

There is a simple answer to your question but a long explanation!

The short answer is NO. Show me (or you) the supporting documentation that allows a person to reach that conclusion.

I realize that WPRF got about $11 million from the insurance but I'll be seeking further information this week about this number and what it is made up of.

If all of this is to be refunded to the unit owners how did the work on the Clubhouse get paid for?

The agreement between UCO and WPRF indicated that 70% of the recreational payments would go into an account for the unit owners however that money was used in part to pay for the obligations stated in the Millinieum agrement.

At this point things get/got very confusing because the payments for the business interruption insurance were used instead of the 70%.

I believe that UCO cannot support the $11-12 million demand but also doubt that WPRF can really support it's position. So here comes the court and they will make that determination.

We just had an example of how the court feels about this case and spin off cases.

In another space I've discussed the results of some motions in the WPRF/George suit. If you recall an attempt was made to move this case from State court to Federal court. This attempt was denied because the case was determined to be groundless and the Judge made the decision that since the attempt was groundless, George (with our money) should pay the legal costs WPRF incurred in protecting themselves in this case.

I believed and still believe that the proper way to bring all of this legal expense to a stop is to reach an agreement with WPRF and yes I still believe that this can be done. Perhaps not by the folks that have called for all out war and called one of the WPRF principals a thief and liar.

I think the tone of the Judge's remarks in returning this case from the Federal court to the State court is very telling. I believe that Dave has posted a copy of this ruling on this blog for all interested folks to read and reach their own conclusions.

Along these lines it is interesting to note that at the regularily called meeting of the Executive Board a motion was made to accept the WPRF offer of $1.8 million. The vote was 14 to 7 in favor of acceptince.

At an "emergency" meeting of this same group just prior to the Delegate Assembly the same subject was again voted on with only my vote in favor of acceptance. Interesting also is that there were no legally called meetings between these two meetings.

I'll be adressing this subject as I get more facts.

Thanks for you interest.
