Hotels By-Laws Breach
September 11, 2024
Hotel By-laws breach Update
The Association Committee has now received a letter from the Hotels Solicitors concerning the By-Laws breach.
The hotel has provided the following information:
- the Hotel has hired gym equipment in order to set up a gym in its own premises for OnTrack Retreats to hold classes
- The hotel is currently establishing an alternative to the tennis court area within its premises for the OnTrack retreat to conduct outdoor classes. It is anticipated to be completed by this Thursday.
- Has arranged for OnTrack Retreat to hold classes at an off-site pool and for participants to be transported to and from the off-site pool for classes
- the Hotels lawyers are in the process of conducting a full review of the Associations Management Statement and will be taking steps to amend or remove any by-law, including 9.1 which seeks to restrict the normal day to day operations of its business, should this become necessary.
We will reply to the Hotel to acknowledge receipt of their letter and hope that there are no further problems. Thank you for residents for your contributions and patience during this time.
We kindly ask that given the sensitive nature of this legal matter that we are mindful of any discussion on our Facebook Kooindah Waters Resources page. Residents can email us at info@kooindahwaters.com or use the Contact Us form on our website www.kooindahwaters.com

Community Facilities Update
The Association Committee is continually reviewing our energy usage and as stated previously our energy costs have increased from $3,500 to $5,500 per month. An obvious place to start is rooftop Solar. Four quotes have been received with prices ranging from $22,750 to $35,000. All quotes consist of a 30kw system and approximately 78 panels. It was recommended not to install a larger system until we decide to install batteries. At this Proposed Rooftop Solar Installation stage batteries are not feasible due to Cost Any reasonable battery installation would not give us enough power to run our community facilities for 12 hours at night. The maintenance committee, after much discussion, decided to go with Allgreen Solutions with a Enphase Energy System. At a cost of $34,790. This system is not the cheapest however it stands above the rest. This system has inverters under each panel and eliminates the need to have a large inverter wired near the meter. Each panel can be monitored, no high voltage so no overheating, highest energy production, 25year warranty on panels and inverters, highest efficiency in all weather conditions. The AC has approved this recommendation from the Maintenance committee and it will be put to the community in the New Year for approval via a General Meeting. More information will be provided shortly.
