I recently biked all of Kaloli Pt and discovered that all the roads, even the dead ends, are like mine...composed of dust. Since they appear the same, one could conclude that like my road, no road material has been dropped and rolled for at least 3 yrs. I know there are other roads in the park who have the same looking roads.
There's money budgeted every month for road maintenance, which includes laying material down on our dirt roads. The GM isn't dropping and rolling road material near to the level as what's been done in the past before his time. Where's the checks and balances in the GM Report? 14 miles of material dropped and rolled where? The small minority that are getting material dropped on their roads said it wasn't compacted. If it's substandard, it won't bond properly any ways. This material has already turned into dust in less than 6 mos. Substandard material = dust = a waste of our money.
Why has the majority board and mgmt. who claim their decision to chip seal is for dust mitigation, not taken care of the dirt roads in the park for at least 3 yrs? If we have only dust on our roads, then a drought is only going to compound the dust issue, as we are experiencing right now. I heard this drought may continue for sometime.
We all pay road fees and our roads are not being maintained. Are they holding back dropping and rolling material on our roads to put towards the chip seal project that only services a small percentage of us? Is this where some of that money is coming from to pay for chip seal material including the training of our road crew and the payment of the chip seal equipment?
At the membership mtg, it was announced they were hiring more road crew. Didn't say if they were replacing terminated employees or hiring additional road crew. We are already outsourcing at approx. $80,000 a year to pay someone to maintain our main road easements. The GM presented one bid and he was supposed to get more but we have already hired this guy I've been told.
If you have nothing but dust on your roads, it's time to request good road material be laid down. They aren't going to lay any road material unless you ask, as is evident with our current road conditions. It appears the monies for our road material is being pulled into the chip seal project. The majority board and mgmt are focused on chip seal. Where's the balance in how they spend our road maintenance money?
