In reply to: Phil 's message, "CLC Management etc" on 01:41:26 11/24/04 Wed

>Phil is absolurely correct - I have checked my documentation and it quite clearly says that I have purchased the right of occupation of the unittogether with the use of all onsite facilities subject to the terms and conditions set out in the constitution. Anyone who thinks they have purchased the deed to the property is I am afraid mistaken or misled.

I also agree wholeheartedly with Phils view on CLC points - what persuades rational people to part with more cash and move from something tangible - a deed guaranteeing the right to occupy a specific unit at a specific time to points which carry no guarantees whatsoever.
Under the constitution each unit can only be sold for 52 weeks per year - there appears to be no cap on how many points they issue- and when they feel the need to drag in a bit more money they can merely increase the points requirement for each unit so points holders will have to buy more or go to a lower class resort. Presumably we shall reach the stage when the original stock of points will buy so little that the management cost of keeping them will be uneconomic and people will begin surrendering their points rather than continue to pay the management fee !! deja vu

Why people fall for the tedious and predictable patter of the reps when at home I'm sure they would not give them the time of day amazes me - it must be the sun and the sangria.

What can be done ? Difficult given the apathy of the membership. Only about 80 attended the agm and most of those to air relatively minor grievances.Our committee is clearly weak and still not communicating broadly with the membership. I would expect our representatives to review a site such as this and the CLC members site regularly and to use it as a means of mass communication - why are they not doing so ?

Thanks for the update Phil. Of course by deed I mean certificate of right of occupancy, which to a degree means I "own" my apartment for that particular week every year and as such acts as a deed should I wish to or be able to sell the right of occupancy.

Thanks to the help of 2 members I will shortly have copies of both the CLC constitution and the old Paradise Club constitution. I will study the two and see just how difficult we can make life for CLC over a number of issues.

I will keep this website informed.
