Mrs. Malavika Kapoor suggested that we provide some form of standby power in the in the clubhouse especially as we propose to let out the guest room.It was decided to explore the possibility of getting secretarial help in the running of the association especially in following up for collections etc
It was suggested by Chiranjib Sen that what was required is some creative thinking through the forming of sub-committees to explore new ways and means of improving the working of RRVRPOA. It would also be easier for smaller groups to meet.
Mrs Kalia raised the issues of individual “pattas”. It was decided that Mr. Rajan would assist in obtaining the same. Mrs Kalia suggested that we treat the lake as an asset and actively work towards closer interaction with the village to facilitate its use by members.
