Was looking at this picture and didn't know where this was at first, then realized it's in the back of the park, which is what's been referred to as "the shit end of the stick" by some of us who know for a fact that there are EPA violations aplenty going on--i.e. w/the dumping of concrete & asphalt chunks along w/glass, hardware, garbage, etc.,etc. This looks like HELL, and I suppose, because the pavement is cracked and uneven that the yellow sticks were put in instead of fixing the problem.

Well this past Summer in SLR, we had records amount of Rain Fall. The Rain raised the underground water table to a very high level. As the Water Level Recedes, the ground water also settles all of the sand and dirt that was improperly placed in all of the Sewer/Water Lateral Dig Sites. You can not add 3 or 4 ft. of Dirt in A Ditch and then start to Compact the Soil. That is exactly what SLR's Favorite Vendor chose to do. Several SLR's Residents tried to tell our SLR's BODs, that was not the correct way to Compact and Back-Fill a Ditch...
So SLR's Favorite Vendor, proceeds to Asphalt SLR's Roads, over hundreds of Poorly Compacted Dig Sites. A very non-professional, terrible Paving Job, placing 1 1/2 inches of Asphalt Directly Over Dirt, that is not Compacted Correctly. So now we are starting to see SLR's Famous Hump-D-Hump Road Surface. You can see it and feel it while driving a Golf Cart. If you drive your automobile at night on SLR's Roads, your head-lamps will really help you to see the Famous Hump-D-Hump Road Surface. And guess what? It will get worse with time. The SLR's Way To Do Projects, is without a paid independent Project Manager. A Very, Very Big Mistake on any Project.
Ps. The settlement of poorly compacted Sewer Lateral Fixes, can also cause the Sewer Laterals to Fail A Second Time. We presently have some issues with Leaking Failed Sewer Lines, it will be interesting to find out exactly where the Sewer Pipes are Leaking. Could it be possible we are about to Fix last Year's Fix? Time will Tell !!!

Attachment DeletedAnother repair of T's quality paving job. This molded mound of asphalt (to guide water runoff) was no match for the TT and other traffic rounding the corner too tightly and has been deteriorating for months. It is anyone's guess if footers were put in the concrete to prevent cracking. Oh well--another example of the motto that SLR lives by: "Git 'er done--twice" (or 3 times).

If you did not see a Sm all back-hoe on the job site, or any dirt removed from the area, you have a curb with out any footers. Placing a concrete curb/water barrier with out a solid foundation, will also crack and break-up. A concrete curb, placed on top of asphalt and sandy soil, will not take the weight of a trash truck. It will crack during the wet season.

S Twinkie (no nutritional value) and the conspiracy theory. Talks out of both sides of her mouth. Wants everyone to just give facts and then makes statements like the sewer plant had an explosion. Did a lot of checking there, (not). No why some countries don't want to improve their education? It's easier to control people that are not educated. Uses big words that are way over the head of the people she controls. Check the hand written notes from some of her friends and you find they use words like “due” instead of “do.” Uses a disclaimer and advises to “consult an attorney for legal advise” (about 149 times) then complains about spending money for attorneys. Wants everyone to get along and then incites people to oppose anyone in charge. Makes it sound like she is suing the resort when in fact she is suing you and all her neighbors. Wants you to believe the prices are going up when in fact they have gone down for 4 years. 2010 expenses were $1,651,810.00, 2012 was $1,626,230.00, 2014 was $1,548,285.00, that's $103,525 less then they were 4 years ago. Reserves have increased from $1,557,255 in 2010 to $1,745,831 in 2014. We have $188,576 more in reserves now then in 2010 and have new roads, a new dock, and a new annex. Personnel expenses were $445,300 in 2010 and $405,500 in 2014. In 2008 and 2009 we didn't have financial statements and personnel expenses were much higher then we have now with a management company. It took auditors about two years to straighten out the mess they left behind but she, JA and JG think that was the best BOD we ever had. They did a pool repair without a permit and had to be redone. (that was cost containment) They gave $10,000 of our money to Gold Coast Utility to permit running water and sewer to SLR and led people to believe it was being mandated by DEP. We would be paying about $120 per month for water today if that scheme wasn't exposed. She is out to destroy this resort by feeding everyone all this misleading information, knowing most people will not take the time to check the facts on their own. If you think you are her best friend, be careful, she'll throw you under the bus in a heart beat if she thinks it will better her own conspiracy theory. I could only hope that the residents of SLR have enough ambition to check the facts for themselves and not believe the loose lips of this venomous asp.

The IP of this post is Mexico City --187.130.75.26--obviously the writer wishes to cloak the actual location which is most likely inside SLR. Since the writer also knows that I would have checked this out, they would also know that I cannot ban the IP from posting on the forum. Therefore, my logical mind says that the post was made by the same computer IP that was previously banned and who wishes to alert other people to my conspiracy-mongering ways.
Time will serve to reveal what is fact and what is speculation (conspiracy?--really???) based on partial information.
It is curious where the writer placed the post--under a thread that has nothing to do with the propaganda tirade about S u e Tg as an agent of unmitigated evil attempting to engineer the ruin of a community that she calls "home".
Do you want to start your very own "S u e Tg Rant Thread"? I can then easily gather up all noxious material from a single location to forward to my attorney who will get a court order to "expose" the anonymous Guest named "exposed". Thanks, that would be very helpful.
Whoever penned this certainly is carrying around a lot of anger! Checking all security cameras now...

Look how "knit-picky" Exposed is! Somebodies got their panties in a twist for sure!
I don't know where Exposed got their information but if JG is any reference to me and what I have said about any board being the best ever then Exposed is talking out of his ass once again. If you didn't here me say that, then* I never said it.
*notice the proper use of the word THEN in a sentence. Exposed made the error of using THEN instead of THAN in his rant. I notice db is habitual about that in posts he has written on this forum.

Word has it,that Frd Oneal is looking to buy a house in S-bag to set up an office for business. That shouldn't be a problem as Bb stab has a commercial business in here. He feels with this Manager,manangement company and lawyers ,he cant go wrong and business will automatically be generated by their actions.

I could only hope that the residents of SLR have enough ambition to check the facts for themselves and not believe the loose lips of this venomous asp. Dear "Exposed" you are typical of what we see from BOD members, you ramble on with your posts tossing out insults and then numbers to try to convince yourself that you know something. If you took the time to think for yourself, do some research like many of us have you might see that letting someone else do your thinking for you isn't the best thing to convince anyone that your statement is at all credible.
You obviously don't know Ms. T, and understand that I am not trying to back Ms. T because she can handle her business better than you and all the bods combined.
The fact that you don't use your name on the Guest box shows how unsure of yourself you are, and that you have a real problem with admitting that you know very little about SLR goings on OR Ms. T.
Your biggest hurdle is the fact that Ms.T has presented information that is FACT and that you and whoever has filled your head with what they think is they way it is shows that you cant stand on your own, think for yourself and that you don't like getting EXPOSED to the community as a person who cant defend your position with the information that you've been given.
Many of us don't buy the BODs rendition of what they interpret as "The RULES". We know more than you do and we prove it with facts and documentation when we cH allenge the false authority of MANBOD and them thinking that they are the only ones to have an opinion whether it may be right or wrong. Obviously you don't live in the real world like most of us do, we don't give up our rights to think and speak just because you cant win and argument with an intelligent person of differing opinion . Days are numbered for you non thinking, untrustworthy, dishonest posers. Saddlebagers are no longer in the dark because many of us are tired of the deception and we are going to cH allenge on every turn like we have been doing.
I'm almost sure Director DB will consider that another "death threat" but I expect that from a stuffed shirt that cant come correct. JG ;+)

exposed writes: I looked again at your ridiculous post and there are just too many idiot statements to pay much attention to. But, THIS statement is particularly bizarre!
1. Where do you get the idea that countries don't want to improve their education? Where are you getting such a statistic or conclusion and based on what??
2. You are extremely insulting to everyone in SLR--suggesting that they are uneducated and easy to control. In your mind, they are so stupid that normal English is "over the head" of readers in here and that they are SO STUPID that they wouldn't know how to look up a word they were unfamiliar with!
3. You assume that people in here are controlled by what they read on this forum! How INSULTING to the people who live here that you call them mindless sheep unable to form their own opinion or control their own thoughts!
I finally got it! ShaZam!! YOU are the person you are describing in this post! YOU are the ignorant victim who has been denied an education by the big bad world! YOU are a mindless herding animal led by other people's opinions and immobilized by an inability to analyze facts which conflict with your limited perceptions. YOU are imprisoned by your own ignorance and lack of communication skills. And, you bring all this to light by coming to this social media and announcing your flaws to all! Do you also have voices in your head?

This "exposed" character comes off like he's the one full of spooge coming out of his mouth; he must be a board member or someone very close to a board member. Talks like a board member due to his obsession with rambling and incoherency.
One can see that this person has no facts or law to pound on so it's obvious they have only the other side to pound on.
He talks about education like it should be doled out sparingly; obviously it was the way he was educated. If you think education is expensive--try ignorance.
Nit picks about a single homophone usage; so what, I've seen manager's reports fraught with incorrect spellings of several homophones--such as: "manor" instead of "manner" and "wood" instead of "would." I could go on about this type of thing, too, but, what's the point? Everyone makes (a few spelling) errors every once in awhile--that's what makes us all human. Remember, you're NOT infallible, Mr. Exposed.
Whatever figures you've presented, I'm sure you did your homework. However, they are not an accurate overall picture of all labor expenses SLR has incurred. Just because we let a few employees go doesn't mean we've saved that money; it was spent elsewhere. Exposed fails to report all the contracted labor costs that SLohA has paid--what about all that expense? How much does that come to? You still have to add contracted labor to any and all labor costs. In fact, I have some more questions for Mr. Exposed: 1) What does ST have to do with a pool repair gone awry due to no permit? 2) How is she involved with the $10K that Bb Dea bolt paid to Goldcoast that we still have NOT gotten back? (All this was done prior to her buying her home in SLR.) 3) Where did the $100K go that was in the "contingency fund" that was also known as the "catastrophe fund." It just disappeared and nobody has ever had an answer for that; mind you, this xxxxx xxxx xxxxxxx around the time xxxxxx xxxx xxxxxxxx arrived on the scene. 4) Why aren't all the club donations put in the "contributions by committees" line; prior years show thousands of dollars donated by the clubs; this past fiscal year, clubs in SLR gave thousands, yet this line is mysteriously blank! WHY? 5) Why did our FY ending in Sept. '09 show a MINUS $53,754 loss against our income? 6) Why did our FY ending in Sept. '08 show a MINUS $65,318 loss against our income?
Explain these questions to us, please, if you will, or if you even can.
Also, Please MR. Exposed: explain to us what conspiracy theory you are talking about? What conspiracy? Who is conspiring to do what to who and what is it exactly that they are conspiring to do?
You make mindless, senseless accusations, then say nothing whatsoever to back them.
Also, you obviously have only heard a load of bullcrap about ST; you probably have never even met her; all you are doing is going by what other's flapping jaws and empty minds have convinced you of.
ST is one of the most intelligent, well-educated, well-spoken, truthful and honest individuals that we on this forum have had the extreme pleasure of knowing. She is a good friend and a confidant, and I'll be damned if anyone is going to speak ill of her without any cause whatsoever.
After seeing and reading Mr. Exposed post, I'm sure others on here would agree with me when I say that his is one of the most incoherent, rambling, as well as nasty, mean-spirited and venomous posts on here attacking a decent and trustworthy member of this community--Ms. ST.

Dang! Thanks for the nice shout-out! And for making me go look up "homophone" (Take THAT Exposed-- everybody has to look up words sometimes-- even the Conspiratorial Venomous Asp!). Homophone: A homophone is a word that is pronounced the same as another word but differs in meaning and spelling. I also found this neat diagram on Wikipedia which demonstrates why the English language is such a confusing, but rich one! Attachment Deleted
