Raton:You guys never had it so good with
President Dave Israel.
Here in CVW we are in the stone ages when
it comes to progressive leadership. Consider:
CVW has no website or blog. CVWPB HAS
BOTH! CVW does not videotape delegates'
assembly meetings. CVWPB
runs the meetings on CH 63 AND posts them
online for 24/7 VIEWING ON DEMAND.
Thank Dave Israel for this communication
amenity.
CV Boca just signed a six-year cable bulk
deal in
the culmination of a process that did not
consider a single COMPETITIVE BID OR
hold a single unit owner accessible cable
committee meeting.
Under Dave Israel CVWPB received a
dozen competitive cable bids. All but a few
committee meetings, during which proprietary
information was discussed, were open to the
unit owners.
Is it any surprise that by selecting single-
bidder Comcast over a ready, willing and able
AT&T that CV Boca unit owners got screwed
by over a million dollars?
CVW Management and Operations
Committee refuses to order that
the buses stop idling at the Clubhouse. Within
30 days of being elected president, Dave
Israel instituted a "green" NO-IDLE POLICY
at the CVWPB Clubhouse so that folks are
not exposed to noise and air pollution. (The
World Health Organization declared diesel
exhaust a known carcinogen last June). The
NO-IDLE policy, is saving our
unit owners $1,700.00 per month.
CVW is using a phony FDOH Air Quality
Report that did not involve
instruments or sample collection - just the
nose of its inspector
despite the fact that toxic gases such as
Carbon Monoxide (CO) are
odorless. CVWPB Clubgoers have had their
health protected for
years thanks to Dave Israel who refused to
swallow bus officials' BS about starter motors
or timing chains. CITIZENS OF CVWPB:
After you chew up and spit out this
thoughtful, intelligent and workaholic
technowhiz, please send him
down to Century Village Boca Raton where
he will be lionized for what he has done to
promote health, education, transparency and
true democracy and accountability in
CVWPB!
You never had it so good, West Palmers!

What a refreshing letter from our neighbors and fellow CV'ers. It is amazing how they can see from 30miles away all the wonderful things that David Israel has done for our villige in West Palm. Thank you Dave for all you do and have done for us. We live in a paradise, its too bad that a minority of malcontents cannot see this.
ReplyDeleteGreat reality check, GREAT! Thanks Fred.
ReplyDeleteDave I think this letter should go to everyone on your IFFI list.
