About debt for water for garden irrigation for 2017-2019

The management Board of the complex has received a request from the Executive authority to pay within 7 days another debt from the previous administration of the complex. 

As it turned out, from 2017 to 2019 the annual fees of the Alara Sulama Birliği Association for the use of water for our garden and trees irrigation were not paid. We were forced to either pay 25,989.71 TL urgently or protest the request. This amount includes the unpaid 3-year fee itself, penalties for late payment, the cost of lawyer services and closing the Executive authority's file.

 

The Board of the complex decided not to pay the claim immediately but to protest it with the help of a lawyer in order to get time to investigate the situation. We received a response from the former Board members that they did not know anything about this and they did not receive any payment requirements. We received the same response from the management company Easy Home also.

During a meeting with employees of the irrigation Association Alara it was revealed that on July 30, 2013 Oguzhan company signed a subscription agreement for the use of underground water belonging to the area of Orion City. Under this agreement payment for water for watering the garden and trees must be paid every year. We were presented with documents and statements that showed that the payment was made in the period from 2013 to 2016 but for 2017, 2018 and 2019 there was no payment and our complex had debt.

 

Officials of the Alara irrigation Association were invited to Orion City to inspect and prepare a report on the matter.

As a result of the inspection which was carried out on July 16, 2020 representatives of the Alara Association issued and submitted to us a report stating that our complex is located in their irrigation zone on the basis of which the debt for the use of underground water resources should be paid by us. We have also been notified that legal action may be taken against Orion City for non-payment of debt.

In order to avoid blocking the complex's Bank account the Board members decided to pay the debt for 2017-2019 using additional payment funds.
