George and Harleen

We're happy to say that at the moment, George and Harleen are still with us. Rumors of their early departure the other day turned out to be exaggerated. While we're happy to report that they have not left at this point, their future at Aviana does remain uncertain. We hope that new ownership will see the advantages of keeping on experienced staff that knows the grounds and its tenants. George has been busy for the last couple days fixing what ails us, and Harleen has been instrumental in seeing that things get scheduled and done. I'm sure we've all seen far than our fair share of staff turnover in a short period of time. This blogger, for one, feels that keeping experienced staff around while other transitions occur might provide some stability during the transition of ownership.

Aviana Tenants Reboot

Welcome fellow Aviana Tenants! We've removed old posts and will be updating information on the sidebar regarding ownership and management as it becomes available. We hope that with the departure of Riverstone Residential, improved relations with tenants and improvements in management of Aviana in general is on the way. This blogger has some reservations however. Following Amanda's unannounced disappearance a few weeks ago, today saw an abrupt mid-day departure of our beloved maintenance, and all around good guy, George and the newly returned Harleen. The management desk was left empty for the remainder of the usual business day. Is it possible sudden and unjust staff turnover is imminent? You will hear news here as soon as we know more.

These rumors do make us wonder, who shall repair the window in the recreation room from the recent break-in, and the handle to the front gate that was hacked off sometime last weekend if George is on leave with no obvious replacement handy (no pun intended)? What of the courtyard shrouded in darkness as light bulbs have burned out and there seems to be no one to replace them? It's yet to soon to fear a Lord of the Flies scenario, but this blogger may take the lead of many ex-tenants should the wind not turn in our favor. Some friends of this rag-tag group of troublemakers have already headed for more well attended lands, as some of us were suckered into lease renewals with rent reductions made to facilitate a sale of our crumbling abodes. These lords of leases and princes of properties may have pulled the proverbial wool, but rest assured that the rug under our feet is being guarded with a weary eye.

This, for now at least, is our home. We all sincerely hope our new leaseholders treat it as such. Consider the tenants when staffing decisions are made. These are tough times for many. There need not be more feet pounding the pavement unnecessarily. We anxiously await news of George and Harleen and hope for a new spirit of transparency and respect.
