Interior paint finishes, 3 options, please decide now!

Interior paint finishes, 3 options Hi all Just a reminder up front: all ceilings will be finished white and all other surfaces will be under coated. If you don’t want Wrens to do the final paint job, go to OPTION 3. At the site meeting on 5th June 20 it was confirmed that Wrens can put the top coats on after the units have been signed off by UCOL. Sign off happens after everything (but the top coat) is installed, including carpet, kitchen etc. It is expected that the units get sign-off in batches as they are finished, while S&W is still on site finishing other units and site works. Wrens has allowed in their quote for masking etc (see quote below). No other paint contractors will be allowed on site while S&W are still there. OPTION 1 If you want to use Wrens for the finishing coats, please contact them directly, and make a contract with them for your individual unit. (You can discuss 2 to 3 colours with them and other extras (more colours, wallpaper) at extra cost.). Take the quote below to Wrens, they can paint your unit after it has been signed off, and you will need to pay them directly. If you are not happy with their finished paint job, you will have to deal with Wrens directly. OPTION 2 We are considering the option to include the finishing coats for trim and/or walls white throughout (shade of white to be decided by each individual Unit owner) painted by Wrens as a variation through S&W. If you were to opt for this, the cost is about 8% above Wrens quote, which is S&W provisional and mark up. The advantage with this option is that Wrens can put the finishing coats on before sign off, (without floor coverings and fittings installed). You don’t need to contact, organize Wrens for the job. If the UCOL sign-off team is not happy with the paint job, we (UCOL) go back to S&W to rectify. The disadvantage is that it’s all white and 8% more. But the job will be definitely done before you move in. This will be a client request variation. Please contact Maria if you are interested in this option. OPTION 3 You paint yourself or organize a different painter to do the job. The only disadvantage of this option is that you will have to wait till S&W has finished with everything and moved off the site. As I have mentioned before, there will probably be a month time between S&W finishing and our possession date. Regards Rainer Please call me if you need an urgent reply.

DirectorsMeeting

Hi all, The directors would like to meet this evening using the UCOL shareholders meeting link. I am presuming that because we are now at level 1 the social meeting would not be meeting and using it. Please let me know if this is not the case. If I don’t hear from you before 5pm, we will go ahead with our meeting there. Apologies for late request. Many thanks, Catherine ******************************************* Catherine Spencer Director, Urban Cohousing Otepoti Ltd +64 3 4536043 +64 21 1221421 www.highstreetcohousing.nz

Unit title process update
by High St Cohousing 17 Jun '20

17 Jun '20

Hi all, Just a quick update on the unit title process for our units. I have requested an update on the process (surveyors/lawyers) / unit title. Surveyors have done the first steps needed, measuring High St and Alva St block and are currently drawing up the footprints. They will provide a full update on the process which will include a timeline to work with lawyers / Land Information NZ. We also need (and have requested) an update from SW on completion date. I will update the group as soon as we have the above information which will hopefully enable us to start adding some important dates to our calendars...

Cladding Colour
by High St Cohousing 15 Jun '20

15 Jun '20

Hi all, Thanks to all for taking the time to vote on the colours for the cladding. *The colour with more votes is PUEBLO with 9 votes. * 8 votes went for SCORIA 4 votes went to "no preference" 3 were blank: 2 people didn't submit their vote and the DCC unit was blank. Attached is a screenshot of the spreadsheet taken just now. I am proceeding to inform the Project Manager/Builders about this. I also want to apologize for the rush procedure as I don't think that this was a good way of proceeding with these kinds of decisions... Unfortunately, I was just notified on our site meeting on Friday morning that we needed a decision by Monday. Thanks to Sander for organizing the spreadsheet and thank you all for your effort to express your preferences with such short notice. We shall see the colour up in some of the walls very soon... Thanks, Maria -- Maria Callau High Street Cohousing UCOL Member and Project Coordinator 0211847490
