Kingsway and QUVL
Thursday, November 20th, 2008Folks
Firstly, my apologies for a seeming lack of contact on my behalf. We have been progressing all the issues that have been raised with us and these have taken more time than anticipated.
It is my unfortunate task to report that QUVL has broken their relationship with ourselves and essentially the Kingsway Community. They are removing the ability to report issues through their website and will not be entertaining issues raised by residents. This is a reaction to the downturn of the economic market and is their answer to saving money. I am working with the communcations manager to see if we can salvage some form of relationship with the builders who are still building directly.
This has a direct impact on the work of the Association as they had promised things like actioning issues that we brought forward (a large number of which we have achieved) and also to print a newsletter and contribute to events. To this end we now have no current real route to affecting change, and also no funding for events. Whilst it is not the end, it does pose a large barrier to our immediate plans.
I believe that this will change in the future when the market turns again, and I am hopeful for a relationship with the more productive companies. However, for the moment, we need to be realistic about what to expect in the short term future.
Im sorry for not having more upbeat news, but I wanted to ensure I passed on this news to ensure everyone was kept in the picture
