Safety First!
Fire extinguishers were mounted in numerous locations in our lovely Palermo complex. No one from the management company, nor the HOA board, bothered to talk to residents about the placement. Even Miss Penny Lane thinks safety comes before shielding eyesores from view, but still why not consult the residents before placing them? It's little to ask. There is some leeway in where they need to be put. No communication, again.

Penny, Don't count on the board to be our savior because they are either the developers employees or guys with their heads up the developer's ... well you get the picture. They'd rather spend our money then tell Chicago it's their duty. We need FULL-TIME owners on the board not apologists for Scott and Chicago.
This was mandated by the Palm Springs Fire Marshall. nothing to do with the board.
Of the question about the extinguishers, I think people are wondering why the board agreed to foot the bill rather than have the builder pay the cost. If they are needed, they are needed, but it's a developer issue. The board must be good fiscal stewards, and that might mean at times sticking up to the developer reps. Developer reps on the board must recuse themselves from such decisions because of a conflict of interest. That's just basic.
