Calling an SGM to frame a proper parking policy for Saket

-
4/11/17

 The Secretary,
Saket CHSL,
Thane.

Dear Sir,

The issue of Parking is being hotly discussed in the Society for the past many months.

History:

We had first attempted to organize our parking by allotting parking space to members, as per decision taken in an AGM @ RS. 1000/- pa for 4 wheelers and RS. 500/- pa for 2 wheelers way back in 2007, when I was the Secretary.

That time, our Committee members Sunil Shinde and GM Wajpe had taken great effort to earmark spaces to members and had coordinated the entire activity. We have about 215 parking spaces in our complex.

Since then, there has been no revision in the allotment and members then allotted are enjoying the facility at the same rate decided at that time.

We have a huge waiting list and in the past 10 years, we have hardly given parking to new members.

Law:

On direction of the court, the Maharashtra Govt first drafted a Parking policy in 2011 and the same was Incorporated in the byelaws subsequently.
As per that policy, in case, parking spaces are less than the people demanding it, the Society should draw lots every year or else, as per decision of the General Body. 
Otherwise, it is mandatory that a mechanism be put in place so that all members get the benefit of parking at some point of time.
If the Managing Committee fails in this, the Society can be penalized and the committee dismissed.

Saket status:

Actually, the Society should have devised the parking policy after 2011 but it didn't happen.
When our Committee took over, it was our commitment to form a proper policy.
As per priority, I had planned to introduce the subject and call for a SGM in our second year.
Hence, I had suggested the same in our MC meeting of July 2016 - but the new office bearers did not take any action.

Now, with the protests from members rising by the day, I am suggesting/requesting/demanding that you should immediately call an SGM to devise a proper parking policy for Saket.

Please take the subject on agenda of this month's MC meeting without fail.

Regards,

Dayanand Nene
Member, Saket Managing Committee.

Code of Conduct for Repairs and Renovation of Members Flats in Saket CHSL. Dear Member, You may be aware that a large number of flats in the society are undergoing Repairs and Renovation at any point of time, which are carried out many times without proper permission from the society. Over the years, these rampant and extensive repairs have resulted in: 1.     Altering the elevation of the building. 2.     Altering the original plan of the flat. 3.     Damaging the building structure. 4.     Inconveniencing the neighbors. Your Committee is in the process of obtaining Occupation Certificate (OC) from the Thane Municipal Corporation and any such flats who have altered from the basic plan may not be given OC by the TMC – and the society wont be able to do anything in this regard. For your information, i f member wants to do internal structural changes in his flat, he has to obtain approval from Municipal Corporation and a society NOC. If such changes were made without

Dear Friend, The BJP is currently conducting a " Vistarak Yojana" - introduction / spread of the party's ideology to the people. Through personal contact, door to door campaign, letters, mails and meetings, party leaders, office bearers and karyakartas are contacting people on occasion of the party ideologue Pandit Deendayal Upadhyay ji's  birth centenary celebrations. This letter is a part of that endeavor. Introduction: Pandit Deendayalji  Upadhyay was the leader of the Bharatiya Jana Sangh from 1953 to 1968. A profound philosopher, organiser par excellence and a leader who maintained the highest standards of personal integrity, he has been the source of ideological guidance and moral inspiration for the BJP since its inception. His treatise Integral Humanism, which is a critique of both communism and capitalism, provides a holistic alternative perspective for political action and statecraft consistent with the laws of Creation and the universal needs of
