Hi all,

I too was wanting to comment on the pets.

Once we are all moved in, with our furry friends, my understanding was that further pets would be discouraged (or not allowed, except that it rather rule-like) because we actually need to find out how many pets our neighbourhhod can handle.

So I would be suggesting that in 6 months we change the pet policy to an upper limit on cats and dogs, certainly not a blanket welcome to any and all.

I hope residents' participation will be enthusiastic rather than aiming for the bare minimum, and judging by our working bees so far, I reckon my optimism us not totally idealistic, but based on experience.

As for parking, I am sure it is one we will be adjusting as we discover what will work. Like habitual seats in a meeting (or in church), I suspect we will find ourselves going back to the same parks when that is possible

Also the agreement should refer to the "Commons Development Fund" as it is referred to in the Body Corp Rules definitions. That highlights that this fund represents our joint ownership of and enjoyment of what we own in common and benefit from together.

Thought I had sent this to warren but not heard back. One or two things above the green line we were concerned about. maybe other people have agreed to this, of which we are unaware, but just to confirm:

1.Resident members are to attend Group meetings and koha time to one or more of the following:

  • Participating in Work Groups.
  • Contributing to community working bees.
  • Helping prepare shared meals.

So the above means residents must attend meetings but the obligation to help prepare meals, be in work groups and go to working bees had been changed so all residents need to do is go to group meetings and put in time to one of the others? (meals or groups or working bees)

2. pets. (again, ad nauseum, I know) We welcome current (intended and actual) pets in our neighbourhood.

This was worded like this to allow sue to have her kitten when it is available. But someone else can simply say they ‘intended’ to have a pet and that is fine.

3. Remaining spaces are for resident and visitor short-term parking (< 48 hours).  All parking within the gates has a maximum of 48 hours. We think the intention was Remaining spaces are for residents; or for visitor parking of less than 48 hours

Thanks roz and michael
