After the big storm we had over the weekend I decided to do
my usual volunteer community work by washing the windows for the tenants on my
floor including my own pad. KMHC don’t
wash windows.
On to the tenant meeting: it was uneventful as usual with one exception we were introduced to the new Superintendent and his wife, they
seem like a nice couple. Poor Francois I suspect he's not use to public speaking "he was breaking out in a sweat" :)
On the agenda was the problem the building has with tenants
and pets. The HSC made it clear repeated complaints to pet owners will be handed a N5 notice
and face eviction. What crossed my mind when I heard this was total disappointment.
What the HSC should have done during the
screening/interview process of new applicants is lay down the rules involving
pets and their owners before signing the lease. Perhaps then she wouldn’t have
to utter threats of eviction to the elder tenants.
There was a pissing contest going on during the meeting
which I found amusing, goes to show tenants don’t always get along. I was impressed with new tenant Judy she expressed her hopes when she arrived at KMHC and disappointed they did not reach her expectations, she's very wise and good at voicing her opinion and concerns. She earned my respect.
There was a discussion on transportation. One thing that caught
my attention, tenants who use this service can book a time but there is no guarantee
the ride will be available. So how are the senior tenants suppose to get to their appointments....by paddling a canoe! :P Hmm, perhaps if the transportation driver can drag
herself away from the security cameras & sucking up to the HSC maybe she can fulfill her duties.
Linda the temp driver and receptionist at head office is
leaving UNH’s. Personally I liked her she has a zesty personality however I did
have a problem when I saw her & her boyfriend smoking dope at the last UNH’s
picnic at Gage Park. There’s a time and place for everything.
At the meeting H.O.W Linda brought up the notice that was
posted telling fellow tenants not to congregate in front of the building, the notice
caused a lot of stink among the tenants but this time I have to agree with
KMHC. There’s not much in regard to privacy with all the cameras pointing at
every direction in the building but let’s not have a live audience standing around when a
guest arrives.
The summer is not half over and shit has already hit the fan
at KMHC. :D
See ya next time.
