Above are three sheets sent out by FP Autumn 2024 to determine whether Homenene lease holders would favour a reduction in the hours written into the terms of employment for a new development manager ...
Leaseholders are disabled from interviewing prospective candidates for the post even thought they pay the wages ...
"development manager" is a FirstPort label for the person who looks after the PROPERTY.
A new development manager was appointed Autumn 2024 after the property had been without one for over six months.
Development managers report to a "Property Manager" who, typically, will manage a number of DEVELOPMENTS within a defined [urban] area such as 'Peterborough' where we believe there are about five developments like Homenene which are managed by FirstPort.
Property Managers are basically asset managers who instruct development managers who themselves are trained in the running and maintenance of a development.
Property Managers report to Regional Managers who in turn answer to a diminishing order of management levels culminating eventually in a FirstPort Wizard based apparently in New Milton, Hampshire.
The need for a new development manager arose from the fact that the previous one went missing in action in April 2024 leaving the property unmanaged for over six months.
His tenure had been laced with controversy and polarization since his installation in 2020
A formal motion (proposed and seconded) for a change of hours as part of the process of appointment of a new warden had been on the table since a previous meeting with the regional manager in the Spring of 2024 when the cost of employing a development manager within the total service charge budget had been raised but could not be discussed then 'because there was an existing development manager in place' (on paper).
The motion insisted that the matter be dealt with if and when it was decided to terminate the contract of the missing party and/or to draw up a contract for a replacement.
This precipitated the above 'ballot' in the fullness of time. The ballot paper came with two pages of explanatory whys and wherefores such as that 'lease holders only could vote' and that 'each leaseholder had only one vote' even though they may have owned more than one lease. Nobody knows how many votes were on the table. Nobody knows how many lessees there are. Nobody knows which residents rent, but it is believed that 14 units are managed by "My Future Living" acting as agents for some unknown "judicial person". Some units are rented out by 'legal persons' ... It is assumed that 'renters' live in the properties they 'rent', but it is not proven.
Nobody knows how many leaseholders live in their unit or what their lease terms are.
Lease-holders may
1. Own their lease but rent out the flat.
2. Own their lease and neither live in or rent it
3. Own their lease and live some or most or ....even all of the time ... somewhere else.
4. Own their lease and live here all the time.
5. Think they own the lease of the flat they live in and go to their grave believing they will pass on an asset
It is not openly known how many 'entities' were entitled to vote or who they were. First Port goes to considerable trouble to prevent this sort of information from entering the public arena. There are 48 accommodations. Some have nobody in them. Not even the local authorities seem to know who lives here at a given moment and rely entirely on a computerised lists of post codes which relate to the individual flats ...
