Subject: SP52948 - Various matters and tender process
Date: 25/11/14, 9:44 am

We have been made aware of the various allegations you have made against our office in regards to the management of your scheme and also the so called deal or corrupt conduct in regards to the tendering process of the caretaking agreement and the strata management agreement.

BCS Epping have been working closely with the Executive Committee in regards to the renewal of our agency agreement and we have also offered to the owners corporation the service of our sister company, Estate Managers in the tendering of the caretaking agreement of your building. In the instance where BCS and Estate Managers had a vested interest in the tender on the above services, it was essential that this process was managed solely by the Executive Committee to avoid any conflict of interest. The EC has assured that this process is carried at arm length from the managing agent and its associate company.

If you intend to pursue those allegations, you are entitled to lodge your complaints and submit concrete evidence to regulatory bodies for further investigations. We recommend that you cease the above defamatory remarks in public until all the facts have been tested and proven.

In regards to the various motions you have submitted, we have sought legal advice on the validity of the so called motions and explanatory notes which you submitted. Based on that advice, the agenda was drafted to allow an orderly and productive meeting.

As the Licensee in Charge of our office, I will be in attendance at your AGM to assist the Owners Corporation on any queries they may have.

I look forward to meeting the Owners Corporation tomorrow for a fruitful and engaging meeting.

Regards

Billy Cheung
