We do not make jokes, we simply watch the LA Times, the Orange County Register and CID/HOA board of directors and report the facts!

All
residents want is transparency, accountability
& civility
3/05/2009 11:00 AM
When residents complain about PCM, it is generally not about
the field staff. For the most part, field staff is
efficient and pleasant to deal with. No, the
complaints about PCM are about their management.
Everyday, I hear friends and neighbors speak of how worried
they are with the way our money and way of life is
manipulated and altered. These people are not
attendees at Residents Voice meetings. PCM and
dissident Board Members like to accuse those attendees
of all complaints.
These residents do like the way the landscaping looks, most
of the time, and response to their repair issues. The
things that are going on in the world right now, are
the same issues that resident’s worry about. When we
see major banks and corporations being accused of
shirking their fiduciary duties, we are asking if that
is happening here.
We want more transparency, accountability, and more civility
by PCM and Board members.
We want GRF to listen to our needs for better lighting and
security walls. Not clubhouses remodeled, fancy walls,
or big bonuses for employees.
We have seen CEOs “incentives” being canceled. Our
employees “incentives“ continue.
Today, they are lucky to still have jobs. PCM keeps hiring
& increasing costs. Most field workers think they
are PCM employees, because they get PCM checks, but it
is our money!
PCM always threatens that staff will leave if they don’t
get raises and bonuses. Do you really believe many
employees would quit now? I was on the United Board
for two and one half years, and there was NEVER any
mention of an incentive policy. No records of it in
past minutes either. That is why most residents want
more from the Boards and PCM.
Don’t you?
