Letter to the Buzz

Fred, his Mercedes & his sister

While I was back home in

Glasgow over Memorial Day
weekend visiting my sister, Donna
Combs, I read the BS Buzz which
she always saves for me to read &
catch up on happenings in Glasgow.
In the May 16, 2014, issue Vol
3, No 69, you published an article/interview with Fred
Wratislaw and his tricked out Mercedes. I graduated
from high school in Glasgow in 1962 and one of my best
friends at the time was Barbara Wratislaw, who I believe
is Freds sister. Their fathers name was also Fred, but the
picture appears to be of a younger man.
I kept in touch with Barbara while they were in
Australia, and then lost contact.

Does anyone have any contact information for Fred
that you could either send me or if you could send my
information to him so that I can re-establish contact
with Barbara?
My contact information is martzwilliams@hotmail.
com . I live in Spokane Washington; my mailing address
is 11904 E Alki Ave, Spokane Valley, WA 99206
I would appreciate any help you can provide me on
Fred or Barbara Wratislaw. Last I heard from her she was
married and ONeill was her married name.

Thank you,

Janet Martz (Walker)

Letter to the Buzz

Tell it like it is...

As they say in the NFL - Cmon Man! Mr. Frantz
put out partial information with spin in his response
to the Nick Chiechi article in the June 3rd BUZZ. It
referenced my Chats with Terry-Lee BUZZ article of
May 28th. Youre either missing the point or putting out
DISINFORMATION in your article Frantz. Lets tell it like
it is and set things straight, NO SPIN!

1. INNUENDOS, UNTRUTHS- Performance based
SMCA is reflected in their $32 million dollar replacement
insurance along with $1 1/2 million dollar liability
coverage. Thats what is would cost to replace their 251
units worth $8-9 million dollars and only have a fair market
value of $35,000 each on average at best. The potential
based DTM/Mitchell units were bought through tax deeds
at between $300 and $700 dollars each approximately, they
are uninsurable, banks dont usually lend on them, and
thats what one sees, the junk units as one Investor stated
and wrote about, when entering St Marie. As an example
Terry-Lees 403 fourplex was bought for taxes for $700 per
unit. These uninsured units have hardly any value until
theyre brought up to spec.....Potential based properties
as referred to. Banks WILL loan on SMCA units and
will NOT loan on units that have no value to speak of.
Correction your comment- Drive into St Marie and one
sees unkept units that banks wont loan on, they will loan
on the kept up SMCA $35,000 units.

2.YOU SAID: SMCA has been in existence for over
25 years and look at the shape St Marie is in, whats special
about their performance? SMCA units are the ones
that reflect new roofs, siding, painting, doors, windows,
furnaces, etc. and have value and good looks. The shape
of other buildings/units are what you investor/developers
bought for taxes and appear as unkept eye sores. Yes, look
the town over, those that pay their taxes, water/sewer bills,
and association dues have nice looking condo units. They
were the first and present folks to DO REHABS on 251
units, NOT DTM lately on 6 or seven units!

3. BIASED BASED OPINION and RUMOR- I report
the opinions of many others and what people have told me
they have heard. And YES, I have court documents with
JUDGE RULINGS to back up whats truthful and legal,
DO YOU?
4. VILLAGE FEES/LIENS- Yes, you are aware of
Village Fees and options to get their money VIA LIENS.
That can work for the stand up/straight shooters if
necessary, and also AGAINST the straight shooters if the
WRONG PEOPLE get in positions of power on the Village
Board. Board Presidents, Directors, and Managers can do
whatever they wish LEGALLY, though not always ethical
and equitable as was DONE IN PAST years.

5. CONFLICT/GOLDEN RULE! - Were not living in a

Fantasy World. It takes EVERYONE paying their bills
to keep the place running (infrastructure) and looking
good (units in good repair). Those current folks running
the Boards ALL PAY THEIR TAXES and OTHER BILLS.
Are ALL you investors CURRENT on ALL YOUR BILLS?
Thats not a QUESTION of CONFLICT or someone not
practicing the Golden Rule. A man is judged by the SUM
of his ACTIONS.

6. CONTROL- Control the operations of the Village?
Carry on the business of the Covenant Owners? Business
affairs poorly handled by the Village Board? Are you
IRRATIONAL or just PLAIN NUTS? You folks own 51%
of the JUNK UNITS in St Marie, are NOT CURRENT on
all your BILLS and you want to control the Village Board?
Surely you jest!
The current Village Board provides basic services
that they can afford since only 29% of billed revenue
is collected. The first thing you should do is LIEN
YOURSELVES if you do get on the Village Board!

7. NEGOTIATE/HARMONY- Folks have been paying
full Village fees for 20 years and SOME want a discount or
fees waived? You call that fair and equitable and thats
what it will take to PROMOTE HARMONY? You gotta be
joking! The next time I see you Ill hand you the Judges
Ruling on your nonsensical request.
8. WHAT are SOVEREIGNS? ....You asked. YOU
gotta be KIDDING Merrill!.... All the paperwork filed
down at Valley County says it in PLAIN ENGLISH.
I personally gave Terry-Lee the ABA (American Bar
Association) PAPERS (May 2014) describing the WAYS
OF SOVEREIGNS, which I discussed with him but did
not go into in my writings because I did not want to be an
alarmist.

I WELCOME ADDITIONS, CLARIFICATIONS, OR
CORRECTIONS IN REGARD TO THIS ARTICLE.
