[quote="JDdots"]Hi,All
WAYS TO INCREASE OUR HOUSE VALUE1. SECURITY
This is the most important of all.
Wealthraider's suggestion of smart tag is an improved system over our existing access card scanning with the convenience advantage. The cost of this system has to be studied before putting into practice. However there maybe a set back to this system. Every resident who comes through the guard house does not require to unwind the window (as this is the advantage), then the CCTV cannot capture the driver's face. Therefore it will defeat the purpose of the CCTV. Incase of any robbery, there will be no way to trace back. Is there a way we can overcome this?
The intercom system was once discussed before and I believe that it can be reviewed again. It is an additional communication tool for the convenience between the guards and the residents. Aim: To cut down registration time.
However the above 2 systems require time and money. For the moment, we may not be able to have them yet. But its highly possible in near future where the $ is available. With the current RM80.00 we are paying, guess we can't do much as the intercom system require high cost.
Coleong is right. The untidiness of the guard house is an old habit of the guards and that "tidak apa" atitute need to be changed. Their mindset frequency maybe different from ours but they are trainable. Let's tackle the supervisor.
In my personal opinion, it is also the residents' responsibility too to tell the guards of what we are not happy with their habits or incompetency. We are their Paymasters and this is OUR home, not theirs!
However, they are times, we need to make our grouges known to them. Likewise compliments too for job well done. I tried that many times. It worked.
2. LANDSCAPING
Any one who had been to these 2 places would agreed that the DESA PARK CITY and SP SETIA ECO PARK are few of the superbly designed landscape in the Klang Valley, probably the best ones in Malaysia. One does not want to leave the moment one steps into the surrounding compound of the whole precint. I had been to ECO PARK many times and the WoW factor is still there all the time. How wonderful I thought, if Palma's landscape is somewhere close to their setting.
Costs of upgrading? Dont know yet!. Its up to the next set of KPRA Committee to think about it. Our land area is very much smaller, so cost wise should be much less. Who knows, the new committee may be able to get sponsors. ..
3. FOUNTAIN AREA
As Siva said, we can upgrade our existing fountain area with lightings. Why not make it like a fairy land at night if the electricity bills are borned by MBSA! More palm trees can be planted around that areas (as suggested by some good friends/neighbours) to give a PALMA feel.
Regular maintainance of the fountain pond to clear away the alge abundance would be excellent as the ability to view the KOI fish clearly is a plus plus point.
4. INFORMATIVE TV
The same good friends/neighbours had also suggested that we should have LCD TV at the entrance of Palma to feed important information and at the same time project a high class image of our precint rather than the existing banners hanging infront of the fountain creating eyesores. With the low price of LCD TV, it is not impossible. They even volunteered to go around to seek sponsors. CHEERS to our buddies
5. SWIMMING POOL, MINI GOLF DRIVING RANGE, TENNIS,FUTSAL COURTS.
It that possible? Possible, only if one think so. Its the priority we want, right!
6.GOOD, FRIENDLY, HELPFUL AND UNDERSTANDABLE NEIGHBOURS
These are ingredients of good neighbourhood that we should have. Visitors, relatives will soon realize that Palma has such wonderful people. For sure this is another good way to increase of house values.
7. ETC - your ideas please.
There are many talented, experienced professionals and businessmen (in their respective fields) that can help Palma to improve the way of life. You only need to be indentified. One way to do as Siva said, please come into this forum and share your valuable thoughts.
Together we shall raise the property and neighbourhood values of Palma.
Good Day.
The smart tag system does indeed prevented the CCTV from capturing the image of the residents entering Palma precinct at the present angle. The CCTV can be relocated at the place where the card reader was installed so that the camera can see right through the windows at the driver seat. It could also capture the images of the passengers traveling along and the situation could get sticky if the women sitting on the passenger seat is someone other than the wife. This will create some unnecessary domestic inquiries by the wives. After some reconsideration, wealthraider tends to think it's a bad idea.
With the wireless CCTV installed around the perimeter walls, any car entering Palma precinct could be monitored up to the front gate and vice versa.
Wealthraider would guesstimate the cost for the wireless CCTV system is inexpensive and worth some consideration because every corners of Palma precinct is being watched and definitely raised the security standard at Palma.
