Questions and more questions!

Dear Residents,

Apologies for not being able to update all of you recently. I would like to address the many questions posted on earlier postings. And Thank you for your comments.

The plan to proceed with the security measures in our area are finally coming to a reality! Some of your comments and suggestion have been put forward and some have been incorporated in our planning and execution.

But please do bear in mind, we will not be able to please everyone as some restrictions will be the order of the day, to make our security measures as effective as possible.

Going forward, there will be an information leaflet which will be given to all of you and will be dropped into your mailboxes in the coming days. In there, you will find all the necessary information describing what the committee have been up to and what we are planning to do.

For your information, your committee members have been working tirelessly over the last few weeks, to garner the necessary support and to collect the forms from you. So far, we have collected more than 500 forms, almost all have agreed to the implementation of the security measures. That represents some 70% of all the households in the area (754 houses in total)! But we sincerely hope this will not be translated into just empty promises when the time comes for us to come and collect the funds from you for this project.

By the way, the proposed fee is RM50.00 a month for a round the clock security services. Excess funds will be put into a sinking fund to carry out other future projects (such as perimeter fencing further down the road) and to run community projects such as social gatherings, sports events and others when we are more settled with this project.

Please watch out for the information which will be dropped into your mail boxes soon.

Thank you.

I think RM50 a month is very very reasonable.Syabas to our committee members and hope everything will be a success and USJ 11/3 will be a safer place to live in.

BRAVO, a job well done by the committee members. Personally I hv no problem with the 6 monthly payment but I hope all others will feel the same. Quarterly payment may be more popular/acceptable to all. However, I hv some queries/comments as below;
(1) is boom gate 1 and 2 down at all time and operated by 24hrs guard? I have seen the USJ5 (terrace hse area) boom gates opened during the day which render them useless.
(2) I suppose the drum gates 3,4,5 will be operated by guards at the
designated entry or exit times. It would be extremely difficult for the guard to control non eleventrees cars from GATE CRASHING when the drums are moved to open the entry/exit. We might need boom gates instead of drum gate though they are cheaper.
(3) USJ5 (bungalow side) the rich men have installed automatic boom gates, can we salvage their manual boom gate to save cost before they sell as scrap? I am sure some eleventrees resident who are contractors can help.
(4) Instead of having two (redundant) entry/exit points along the same side, i.e. USJ11/3 or USJ11/6, can we move either boom gate 1 or 2 to gate 4?
(5) It may even be a good idea to CLOSE gate 4 and use gate 5 as the 2nd boom gate IN ORDER to STOP/DISCOURAGE cars from Taipan coming in thro gate 4 and park along USJ11/3Q. Normally, the Taipan cars come in via gate 3.
(6) any discussion with MPSJ as to special arrangement for kakitangan MPSJ to come in and park along USJ11/3P? (MPSJ stickers) There are MPSJ car park in USJ5 also.
