For those curious about Santee Village status:

Don Garza reports a Globe St.com article about our building. I didn’t realize that the Textile Building was the first in the area to use the Mills Act.

When: Tuesday, July 24, 2007, 12-2PM
Where: Unit 1101, Textile Building
315 E. Eighth St., Los Angeles, 90014
RSVP by July 20, 2007 to: TLY at MJWINVESTMENTS.COM

I am considering some restructuring of the built-in closet. Do we still need to submit a proposal for those kinds of changes to MJW through Dave under penalty of the HOA making us undo the changes if we don’t? What is our status on that these days?

Also, still loving my loft every day.

For those who haven’t heard, the Downtown BID is hosting this weekend’s Downtown Living 2007 event. There will be several open houses for condo/apartment projects in the area. Santee Village will be hosting an opening event and will probably introduce their 3 new buildings to the public. I still remember attending their 2005 event, which was what led me to the Textile Building.

Hi All,

I know that Boards position is to speak with one voice and that’s sound thinking but have you guys come to an agreement on the issue of the Gates?

We are all still very concerned about our Mills Act Status and would like an update to settle our frayed nerves.

Has the City made their inspection?

Have they contacted Isaac and MJW to remedy the situation?

Has the City and the Historical Society sent notices to Isaac and were you copied on this information so that we may all learn what is going on?

FYI Not only has Isaac installed these security gates but in doing so he may have removed the row of tiles to install the housing.

There is also a hole in the east side of the building on the lower wall beneath the glass close to 8th Street?

I am concerned about the timeline for the City to put pressure on Isaac while MJW is still involved. Once MJW closes escrow on the last unit the Historical Society will have only us to turn to and we will end up in a battle over fines and the cost to repair the facade.

So please, if you “guys” have decided on your position please send a quick note out to let us know.

Again, we have not received the minutes from either meeting nor have we received the memo regarding the date in March that the “official” home owners meeting will take place.

I know this is not what is going on but it feels like the Boards silence is equivalent to all of the stalling tactics that MJW has used on us for the last 6 months.

The condition of the building is bordering on deplorable… what is going on?

As mentioned in our previous meeting, there was concern about the parking easements. Section 4.3 of CC&R’s say:

The easements and other Protective Covenants herein created and established shall be appurtenant to and shall run with, bind and inure to benefit of the land that comprises the Project Property or applicable portion thereof as herein provided the perpetuity commencing from and after the Effective Date.

I don’t see any problems with a perpetual easement, but I’m not a lawyer to fully understand what this means and if there is anyway this can be taken from us.
