And so...since it was merely a statement of Mrs. Capillupo that the "certificate" was supplied...we thought about the past...and the lack of complete information that has been given to the community to date...

- From Valerie Lapin...to...Anthem OpinionsReplyDelete
Whenever I read about the continual Café V saga it makes my blood boil that they have been allowed to get away with their actions and they continue to be here as a financial liability to SCA.
Mrs. Capillupo and Mrs. Meese keep covering up for the restaurant.
They and the rest of the Board and the restaurant should all be given their walking papers sooner rather than later before it’s too late.
Why is it always that the good guys that run for office that are willing and able to make the necessary changes are never elected, and we continue to get incompetents elected?
It’s about time that there is a positive regime elected that are concerned with the fiduciary and safety functions of SCA.
Another soap opera in the history of SCA continues......... - From Barbara Sidary...to...Anthem OpinionsReplyDelete
One of the women I play cards with heard the check from V's had bounced.
Have you heard anything about that?
I am also branded a troublemaker as I try to get things changed and Maurice asked how I liked the new card tables and chairs and I said the chairs with no arms were too short for women and he replied:
"you aren't satisfied with anything, are you".
Very nasty and snotty.
The new tables are higher, we fight over the chairs that can be raised and we will see how long they last. - Barbara,ReplyDelete
We heard the same rumor...and...perhaps one of the board members can confirm or deny this comment.
It certainly wouldn't surprise many people if true.
As far as Maurice Talley, he has been the subject of NUMEROUS complaints as to his behavior toward residents.
A few years ago, when Anthem Opinions commenced operations, we placed flyers at the Liberty Center to make residents aware of our blog..
First, they disappeared...and we were happy, believing that the community was interested in our publication.
When they disappeared a second time, we were made aware that THEY WERE REMOVED at the instruction of Maurice Talley.
Those flyers were costly, and when we contacted Mr. Talley, we were told "it was against the rules".
We asked him to provide those rules ...and...they never existed.
We then told Mr. Talley and a Mr. Feldman, at that time, it constituted THEFT of PERSONAL PROPERTY...that it they were not returned ASAP, we would file criminal charges against both of them for THEFT.
When they "could not locate" the flyers, we were FULLY REIMBURSED for the cost we incurred.
The moral of this story is simple....DON'T LET PEOPLE PUSH YOU AROUND...and...if told something that you don't understand, DEMAND TO SEE THE RULE IN WRITING.
It they cannot produce it, THEY CANNOT ENFORCE IT.
Let's hope Mr. Talley's actions are noted by the new self-management team and hopefully, when the transition is made, he is sent packing.
Anyone else have a problem with that individual? We'd like to know.
From Laura Shapiro...to...Anthem Opinions
First of all, thank you for all you do to keep our community informed. I would not eat in that restaurant even if it was for free. It's just very frustrating that this restaurant is allowed to remain open. This is a travesty of justice and the residents of Sun City Anthem deserve better. The "Board" should be ashamed of themselves!!!
Sincerely,
Laura Shapiro- Laura, thanks for the compliment, but the one who really deserves the thanks is a man named Barry Goldstein for doing his best to make our community a financially safer place.ReplyDelete
Why he is criticized for "doing the right thing", is so sad, and it tells the story of the "politics" that are senselessly demonstrated so often.
As a matter of fact...I have a favor to ask of you....AND...EVERYONE WHO READS ANTHEM OPINIONS.
Send Barry Goldstein a "thanks"..for his trying his best, despite those who would like to silence him.
He's made of "The Right Stuff" and I'm sure he would like to hear from those who believe he should be thanked for his courage.
Barry Goldstein's email address is:

Why is our SCA Board of Directors stalling locking the doors on Cafe V?
Why do they ignore the fact the owner of Cafe V Larry Hughes was operating the restaurant without insurance, behind on debt obligations, struggling to stay in business and many residents dissatisfied with the food and service?
Why does our BOD keep giving Cafe V more and more concessions to stay in operation?
The answers are simple...
President Bella Meese and Secretary Jean Capullipo have made it clear they "need a place to eat lunch" and they believe a restaurant increases home values.
Having three restaurants attempts (Tirzo, Tubin, Slark) did not keep the home prices from tanking to a all time low of 40 to 60 cents on the dollar.
Nor has Cafe V helped SCA to regain property values in excess of the normal home value increase throughout the Las Vegas area.
Leadership is scared to death that SCA might be counter sued if they decided to throw Larry Hughes out, as was the case with the original Trumpets restaurant.
Trumpets apparently began failing soon after Pulte no longer funded the restaurant to help sell new homes.
Trumpets did not meet their debt obligation for almost two years...SCA finally sued...for some reason, most likely due to poor representation by our attorney...SCA lost the case and had to pay an additional $250,000 to Trumpets.
In addition, SCA's attorney isn't in a rush to take action against the restaurant...he is paid a hefty hourly sum to shuffle papers...the longer the shuffle...the more $$$$ we pay the attorney.
The eviction process is not that difficult to execute and can be completed in about a month if the procedures are followed and a desire to take action. -
Sunday 7/19/15. 6:30 PM.... Compare Buckmans vs Cafe V. In addition huge event in Anthem Center Grand Ballroom Chinese Club with potluck.
V couldn't have served them anyway because the kitchen is broken.
How much will the repair cost us?
A few weeks ago V closed the salad bar because of ant infestation.
What next before the doors are closed for good?
