Stolen Property? (4) & Fox Management Group Owes OVER $1,800! (#317)

As I said earlier, Mara responded...

Thank you for letting me know that the ladder is missing.  I will bring this up at the next Board of Directors' meeting and will ask if they would like it replaced.

The next Board meeting isn't until January, 2010, so I responded...

Dear Mara:

Fine.
I hope no problems occur before then due to our inability, since the ladder was stolen, to clean out the radiators and vents.

Of course, since you were put on notice about the matter on Nov. 30th, 2009...

"At any rate, it should be replaced as quickly as possible.

M needs to have dust and other debris removed from the radiator vents, the recessed fans cleaned, and the radiators "bled" to insure nothing (including possible pipes bursting or fire from dust/debris buildup in the fan motors) occurs.
I've done this task every year at about this time, but have been unable to do so this year due to the theft of the ladder!
Now that I've reported it, it's legally a pre-existing condition. The onus to correct the matter of the stolen ladder is in your hands."

...,you, as property manager may be legally and financially liable for any damages due to inaction to correct the problem in a timely manner.

Let's see what happens...


Thursday's total for Fox Management Group's still-unpaid bill from July, 2008 (over a year ago, now!)...$1,882.56 from an original $75!
They've broken the $1,800 level!
Now that the 1% per workday cumulative late fee is over $18, it's really starting to mount up, at a rate of $90+ a week! That's more than the amount they originally owed!
It's over 300 (THREE HUNDRED) late charges, and now the amount (with late fees) is over 20 times the original bill...
And they'll be over $2,000 by the end of the year!
Is that just pitiful, or what?
I hope for her sake that Mara's better with her library books and DVD rentals! ;-)
