Govt may ‘trim Bahamian duo reject sails again’ on ‘collusion’ allegations Isaias impacts

By NEIL HARTNELL Tribune Business Editor nhartnell@tribunemedia.net

S

UPER Value’s president and The Bahamas’ marinas chief yesterday vehemently denied claims they “colluded” with a property manager to help deprive a condo owners group of thousands of dollars.

Rupert Roberts and Peter Maury, the Association of Bahamas Marinas (ABM) president, told Tribune Business there was “no truth at all” to allegations by 11 Bimini Sands homeowners associations that they had enabled Miami-based KW Property Management

• Super Value and marina chiefs: ‘No truth at all’ • Bimini Sands owners target property manager • Demanding $719k over ‘unauthorised transfers’

RUPERT ROBERTS

to access its Florida-based bank account for the purpose of making “unauthorised transfers”.

The claims were made in a lawsuit filed this week in the Miami-Dade County Judicial Circuit Court, which is seeking $729,593 in “treble damages” from KW over its former role as property manager at the Bimini-based development that Mr Roberts sold last year.

Neither the Super Value

chief nor Mr Maury is named as a defendant in the action, but the homeowners associations - representing condo owners who had purchased their properties during the first 11 phases of Bimini Sands’ development - are alleging that some of the monies taken by KW were wrongly applied to cover fees owed by Mr Roberts on 63 units that had yet to be sold.

GB ‘needs Isaias like hole in head’

By NEIL HARTNELL Tribune Business Editor nhartnell@tribunemedia.net

GRAND Bahama and its ailing economy “need Isaias like we need a hole in the head”, the island’s Chamber of Commerce president told Tribune Business last night.

Greg Laroda said businesses and residents alike, already in the middle of a two-week lockdown to curb the surge in Grand Bahama’s COVID-19 cases, were “waiting with bated breath” to see what the predicted hurricane will do when it reaches Grand Bahama.

With Isaias projected to strengthen into at least a category one storm by the time it reaches Grand Bahama, Mr Laroda voiced particular concern for the multiple households and businesses that have yet to complete

• Chamber chief: Island waiting ‘with bated breath’ • Fears for homes, firms not repaired from Dorian • Lockdowns ‘may do more damage than COVID’ post-Dorian repairs to their physical premises.

Warning that these properties may again be compromised by Isaias’ winds and heavy rain, the chamber chief also looked ahead in calling for the government to strike a better balance between The Bahamas’ health and economic needs over COVID-19.

Arguing that the constant lockdowns/shutdowns “may do more damage than COVID-19”, Mr Laroda said Grand Bahama and the wider Bahamas cannot afford to “close out the year” in that state as it would mean significant

Building Code reform must be ‘grass roots’

By NEIL HARTNELL Tribune Business Editor nhartnell@tribunemedia.net THE Bahamas Society of Engineers (BSE) president has voiced concern that the drive to update the country’s building codes is not being led by a “grass roots effort” featuring all stakeholders.

Quentin Knowles, arguing that The Bahamas was “way behind” on this initiative as Isaias threatens as a potential hurricane, told Tribune Business he had “anecdotal information” that the building code effort was “being led by a group in

the Ministry of Works of a related department”.

However, he said few details - including proposed reforms and timelines - had been shared with the private sector stakeholders that have to use and implement the new code, such as engineers, contractors, architects and others.

Mr Knowles contrasted this with the approach taken by the Canadian Electrical Code technical committee, upon which he sits, and from whom the electrical code in The Bahamas is taken from.

Govt rescues ‘last hurrah’ for hoteliers

By YOURI KEMP Tribune Business Reporter ykemp@tribunemedia.net

BAHAMIAN resorts yesterday said the government had preserved their “last hurrah” through its u-turn on requiring locals to present a negative COVID19 PCR test to stay in them over the weekend.

Clinton Davis, the Courtyard Marriott’s general manager, told Tribune Business that the initial mandate has already impacted business significantly. “To my understanding, there is going to be a rescind of that order,”

he added.

“I don’t know when they are going to do it, but I did receive an e-mail that there is going to be a reverse in the decision from the Ministry of Tourism so I am just waiting on that rescind order. We know that Bahamians not being able to go to a hotel will definitely impede this business and, of course, the Bahamians that we do have employed here will most likely be sent home.

“This is our last hurrah of trying to keep a few people

business closures, job losses and an economy that was on the brink of collapse.

His comments came as the government revealed three more COVID-19 related deaths, along with 24 new cases, as it was forced to simultaneously relax restrictions to enable Bahamians to prepare from the threat posed by Isaias.

“Of course we need this like we need a hole in the head right now,” Mr Laroda said of Grand Bahama’s storm-battered and weary economy. “I don’t know what to say. We really don’t need this.

“A lot of homes and

business places still have not been secured after Hurricane Dorian. This one we expect to have a lot of rain associated with it. Hopefully in terms of strength it will be a weak category one when it comes through, so wind may not be an issue, but we have a lot of roofs that are not secure so the rain may do a lot of damage to homes and shops that persons have not secured yet.

“With the COVID-19 shutdown doing repairs has been slowed on the island.

We are closely watching it [Isaias] with bated breath,

in its bid to contain the latest COVID-19 surge. While residents and businesses now needed to stock up on hurricane supplies and materials, this risked a further spike in the already exploding infection rate that saw 24 new cases yesterday.

“The intensity of the storm is what is going to make the difference,” Mr Turnquest said. “We know even a category one storm going over some part of New Providence is going to cause tremendous issues with respect to flooding and some of the structures that have not kept up with The Bahamas Building Code, so that’s a significant concern as is Grand Bahama.

“They have a lot of weakened structures, a lot of debris that is still lying around, and [Dorian] restoration efforts were only just getting to the point where we can start to see the way forward. It’s obviously a significant potential setback.

We’re sitting here with bated breath hoping something changes its trajectory either further east or west.

It’s a matter of hoping for the best.

“There’s not much we can do about it obviously other than do what we can to protect life and property. The

THE government will have to “trim our sails one one more time” and reallocate spending to deal with the potential damage and fall-out from Isaias, the deputy prime minister said last night.

K Peter Turnquest told Tribune Business that the Minnis administration would yet again adjust its spending priorities to cope with the predicted hurricane’s impact which seems likely to spare almost no island in The Bahamas’ chain based on its projected path last night.

Acknowledging that the COVID-19 lockdowns and restrictions would minimise the revenue losses for both private sector and the government, given that tourism is virtually shutdown at this time, Mr Turnquest said the potential category one hurricane’s emergence represented a “potentially significant setback” for Grand Bahama, in particular, in its post-Dorian recovery.

With the entire Bahamas “watching with bated breath”, the deputy prime minister added that Isaias had created a further dilemma for the government

THE TRIBUNE

REBUILDING WORKFORCE BONDS AMID COVID WITH a large percentage of our workforce now occupying their home, managers and company leaders are challenged with finding ways to keep synergy and momentum. What some have worked on for years is now on the brink of collapse. Finding opportunities for members of staff to collaborate meaningfully is now a matter of survival.

Today, we focus our attention of five remote virtual exercises that are fun and will meaningfully engage employees: 1. Create a virtual workplace choir Surely you have heard the expression: We cannot all talk together, but we can sing together. Music is the language of the soul. It speaks to all of us and is universal. A workplace virtual choir has proven quite powerful in bringing COVID-19 affected workers back together.

Select music that works for the largest share of team members, and invest in a musical track. Use your editing team or someone with the skills to pull together the individual voices. Pull out the nicer voices and create a beautiful rendition of music that everyone loves.

2. Home scavenger hunts Nothing beats running around your home and yard looking for random inanimate objects. The moderator calls for the items and gives everyone 60 seconds to find it in the house or yard. It is also a good way to get the children and other family members involved. The message of being resourceful, and quickly using what you have to accomplish a task, is what you will draw on as you engage your team members in this fun exercise.

3. Best design competition Perhaps it is time to refresh the company logo,

vision, mission and value statements. Why not make it a competition and have everyone share their ideas virtually? For the sake of goodwill and fair evaluation, independent assessors/ judges could give feedback to the submissions.

I am certain this will prove a worthy exercise, as employees will be forced to research and take deep dives into the company. The learning will continue as others share their thoughts and ideas for the future direction of the company and business.

4. Take your team on a virtual vacation Explore the magical islands of The Bahamas with pictures and real virtual experiences. You only need contacts in some of the islands who are prepared to help your team members explore and uncover some of these treasures.

Technology has so blessed

us that we could be in any cave in Acklins; on the Glass Window Bridge in Eleuthera; or the candystriped lighthouse in Elbow Cay from our very homes.

It is domestic tourism in its safest form. Employees are learning and having a great time doing so.

5. Baby picture reveal party Here is an hour-long exercise for teams needing to bond or reconnect. A short story about birth and childhood should be collected for each employee with a baby picture. In one collective virtual space, employees will hear the inspiring stories and guess who the pictures and stories belong to. This should reveal how similar our experiences are and how, despite our differences, we are very much the same.

6. Virtual Cooking/gardening session Nothing beats a good amateur cooking show live

Bahamas First shareholders support board on resolutions BAHAMAS First yesterday said shareholders had agreed to board of directors’ recommendations for all proposed resolutions during last week’s annual general meeting (AGM).

Shareholders representing 32.2m shares, some 88 percent of those that have been issued, approved the property and casualty insurer’s 2019 annual report, consolidated financial statements and distribution of profit, including dividends paid last year. KPMG was also reappointed as the company’s auditor.

Alison Treco, Bahamas First’s chair, and Patrick Ward, its group president and chief executive, were both returned as directors

and direct for your staff.

Have each employee share their favourite recipe (keep it healthy), and encourage others to purchase items in preparation for the cooking expedition. Have the champion employee prepared to take people into their kitchen. Walk everyone through the preparation of a tasty and healthy dish.

Should be fun.

7. Workplace trivia day Jackboxgames, QuizUp, Kahoot and scores of other virtual game applications have been created for this very purpose. In work spaces where content knowledge is high priority, and people are expected to know, retain and learn a lot, it is always important to create fun learning opportunities. Have your human resources team create fun trivia and quizzes to keep everyone sharp and engaged.

We are all hanging under the COVID-19 cloud together. Let us make the

as were all other board members. Paul MacDonald, executive vice-president of personal insurance at the Economical Mutual Insurance Company, was also elected to the board.

He has expertise across multiple disciplines, including strategic planning, operational management, technology implementation, intermediary relations and data analytics. Prior to working with Economical, which has a 20 percent equity stake in Bahamas First, Mr MacDonald worked with RSA Canada, as the senior vice-president

and chief claims officer.

He also worked at SGI Canada as the vicepresident of its Canadian operations, and at PriceWaterhouseCoopers (PwC), where he served as vicepresident of insurance consulting - strategy and operations.

Ms Treco, in welcoming Mr MacDonald to the Board, said: “I am delighted to be working with Paul. He brings an impressive track record of leadership, innovative thinking and market expertise that will be an invaluable resource to the company.”

She also reminded shareholders the Bahamas First’s shares and bonds were listed on the Bahamas International Securities Exchange (BISX) on July 3.

“We are pleased to continue to return value to our shareholders,” Ms Treco said in a statement at the conclusion of the meeting. “We thank them for their support of the proposed motions. It is vital that they can continue to exercise their voting rights in order to enable the company to successfully build its operations for the future.”

CAR rental companies yesterday said high unemployment and reduced incomes meant they had seen no increase in business as a result of the government’s COVID19 public transport shutdown.

Gary Cox, general manager of Destiny Motor Car and Rentals, told Tribune Business: “Right now, when we came back after the lockdown for over two months, everything was dead. We are just trying to revive ourselves, but we are faced with now the lockdown over the weekends and so forth, so it is basically going backwards instead of going forward.

“We started to improve a little, but now we notice that it is dying off again. It’s a fight and we are trying to stay alive.” The government abruptly closed jitney

services earlier this week in an attempt to curb the second wave of the COVID-19 pandemic. Busses had earlier been allowed to resume operations in early July after being halted at the end of March in response to the first COVID-19 outbreak.

Mr Cox said this had “not helped at all” in terms of increasing business for car rental companies. He added: “Folks are finding that residual income to rent a car is not as easy as it used to be, so the bottom line is everybody has seen a dip in sales now.

“There are other variables taking place that cause this dip in sales, too, because you have more of the folks now who are in the rental business doing it from their home and so forth.

So for folks like me who were established, paying the business license and paying staff... it’s tough for us more so than the ones that are doing it from their homes.”

Govt opponents brand BPL cut-offs ‘heartless’

By YOURI KEMP Tribune Business Reporter ykemp@tribunemedia.net THE government’s political opponents yesterday slammed the disconnection threat facing 11,135 Bahamas Power & Light residential customers as “heartless” and insensitive.

Philip Davis, pictured, the Progressive Liberal Party’s (PLP) leader, in a statement said: “On the face of it, this policy seems heartless in light of what appears to be a complete pause if not collapse of the local economy. With this latest announcement, the government is fast developing a reputation for being heartless, clueless and insensitive.

“We again point to areas of the local economy, such as the retail and service industries, that remain closed by order of the competent authority, [and which] could have been opened for business with the proper health and safety controls and protocols in place - allowing for hundreds, if not thousands, to return to work.”

Buscheme Armbrister, deputy leader of the Democratic National Alliance (DNA), added: “From what I understand at these times, and especially now, when the emergency orders were

first issued they said that they would not turn off the water supply and I think there was some consideration for power.

“I do not think disconnection is a very good idea at this time, especially now because we are - more or less - going into a second lockdown and that’s not very good.”

They spoke out after just 1,311 residential and commercial customers, out of a total 12,446 that were threatened with disconnection, were revealed by BPL to have either settled their arrears or worked out a mutually-acceptable payment plan with it.

This means some 11,135 customers are now susceptible to having their electricity cut-off with BPL’s chairman, Dr Donovan Moxey, renewing his plea for those facing COVID-19 related financial hardship to be “proactive” and meet with the utility so that their service can be maintained.

BPL also confirmed to this newspaper that a net 715 customers have lost their energy supply since disconnections resumed earlier this month following the three-month pandemic lockdown, with some 1,361 disconnected to-date and a further 646 reconnected.

The statistics were obtained after the deadline

for the final two of three customer categories faced with disconnection to either pay-off their arrears or make payment arrangements expired on Tuesday, July 28.

Prior to this, some 11,399 customers who were $500 or more in arrears, and 90 days past due, prior to April 1 and the full onslaught of the COVID-19 pandemic, were faced with disconnection. This has now expanded to include 1,047 delinquent BPL customers who were $500 or more in arrears since April 1 (488), plus those who were on the government’s three-month COVID-19 bill deferral (599).

BPL said all three customer groups owe it a collective $46m, with $36.914m due from those based on New Providence and $9.084m from Family Island consumers.

Some 1,048 New Providence customers, and 263 in the Family Islands, were reported to have agreed payment plans that were accepted by BPL as of Wednesday.

Mr Armbrister said: “I think the government should basically have some concessions for persons until these emergency orders have been lifted and the country returns to some form of normalcy. You have a lot of persons that are out of work, you have some persons that have some mortgage relief. We take all of that into consideration,

but it’s a lot to put on a household.”

Responding to BPL’s need to recoup the $46m it is owed, Mr Armbirster said: “BPL said that they were in a bad situation before this COVID-19 pandemic started, so that is nothing new, but really and truly all of that is a fault of their own through successive governments and the way they have run BPL. “This pandemic has taken everybody by storm and no one is to blame, but yet these are times when people look to government to step up and do for their people. We are all paying taxes, most of us are lawabiding citizens, and we are following the rules and whatever the prime minister decides to do with the emergency orders, Bahamians are following them.

They ask us to stay home, so we stay home. The government needs to take all of that into consideration and they need to look at saving money in other ways.”

Mr Armbrister said government officials should take a pay cut, citing other countries that have done this. He added: “I think it is really insensitive for the government to turn off a person’s power as these are unusual times, and these are times that people look to the government to actually step up to the plate and assist. Power, water and food are assistance that would most definitely be needed.”

MERCHANTS WARNED OVER PRICE GOUGING

By YOURI KEMP Tribune Business Reporter ykemp@tribunemedia.net

PRICE regulators yesterday renewed warnings to merchants not to exploit COVID-19 and potential Hurricane Isaias to gouge consumers or offload spoiled produce Danny Sumner, the Price Control Commission (PCC) chairman, told Tribune Business: “The Commission, along with NEMA (National Emergency Management Agency), we are now looking at the situation as it relates to COVID19 and the approaching tropical storm that should hit The Bahamas in short order.

“We are aware that during this time of the year, normally we see a spiked increase in pricing in these foods stores, and not only in New Providence but also all over these islands. I want to put those retail stores, wholesale and all of the grocery stores, on notice that the price inspectors in New Providence, led Eulamae Gordon and the price inspectors in Grand Bahama, led by Reno Smith, those inspectors will be vigilant in all of these stores making sure the breadbasket items will be held to the price that is stipulated and regulated by the commission.”

Mr Sumner added: “Also

DANNY SUMNER we have problems during this time of the year as we see increases in batteries, which is bad.” That product, though, is not under price control regulations.

He continued, though: “In addition to that we also notice that other food items gradually go up like meats. We will be looking at this, and the determining factor will be that when those inspectors meet in the stores with management, they will make sure consumers are not burdened down with excess pricing.

“It has been going on for quite some tim,e and price inspectors have been repeatedly warning some of the mangers in these stores about the escalating prices.”

Referring to the minister of labour’s powers of prosecution for those breaching the price control regulations, Mr Sumner said: “Be that as it may, the minister responsible for consumer protection is

Dion Foulkes (minister for labour, transportation and local government), and he will not hesitate to prosecute those violators in pricing with regard to the Price Control Act, which is Chapter 339.

“I am urging those inspectors on the Family Islands to make sure they hit these stores with speed, and that any infraction they see that they should forward it to me or to the ministry so that we can deal with these perpetrators.”

Mr Sumner continued: “The Bahamian consumers do not need any more burdens as it relates to pricing and so forth. The official warning is that these store owners, retail owners and, of course, convenience stores, please be mindful of your pricing because we are looking at it, and if we find any reason that the prices are not conducive, we will come back to you.

“We have another problem with bad produce being placed in these stores. For example, I go into stores at times and I see bad meat. In recent times I have gone to management in two stores and asked them to remove the meat from the public because the meat was bad and it was contaminated.

“So we also warn these store owners to not sell Bahamians food products, and products that can hurt them and the health of the

consumer, so it is important that they put the proper things on the shelving and healthy things for people to consume.

We don’t want people to get sick after purchasing these things from the store.”

GB ‘needs Isaias like hole in head’

COVID LIMITS GB WATER RESTORATION TO JUST 70% THE Grand Bahama Utility Company (GBUC) has blamed COVID-19 disruption for restricting post-Hurricane Dorian water service restoration to 70 percent of its customer base.

The provider said disruptions to the supply chain, access to new equipment, machinery and technical experts, and the requirement to split the workforce into two separate teams to prevent COVID-19 transmission, have all impacted its timetable for restoring Grand Bahama-wide water potability to residents.

In addition, wellfield data produced in March highlighted further Hurricane Dorian-related damage to the freshwater lens, impacting the projected wellfield recovery timetable. “Our main wellfield that historically produced 60 percent of our supply was inundated with over 20 feet of salt water,” Ian Rolle, the Grand Bahama Port Authority’s president, said.

“Unfortunately, there is no silver bullet to remedy this. The experts we employed to conduct hydrological studies underestimated the extent of the damage and the rate of recovery. We have had to make revisions to our implementation plans and restructure our team in order to find a solution that would not only return water potability, but also ensure

FROM PAGE ONE

GB water restoration team at work. we never find ourselves here again.”

Philcher Grant, the GBPA’s director of group corporate affairs and government relations, explained that Grand Bahama Utility Company is now planning to invest $5m in a 3m gallon reverse osmosis system, as well as new water plant pumping station and wellfield to solve the problem and speed-up restoration.

She added: “We recognise that, with global climate change, we must contend with ongoing impacts to our natural resources. To that aim, we are incorporating a 3m gallon reverse osmosis (RO) system as well as the construction of a new water plant pumping station and wellfield.

“This $5m capital investment will not only accelerate restoration of full island water potability, but also create sustainability and contingency in the event we experience another event like Dorian. The reverse osmosis system is designed to be mobile – a preparedness measure to ensure equipment can be moved and not damaged, as part of our storm contingency planning.”

Ms Grant added: “Today, 70 percent of our customer base has potable supply.

Regulatory governance

requires one month of testing and monitoring that demonstrates the water meets World Health Organization (WHO) guidelines, so we are not announcing the additional subdivisions that are now potable until that process has been concluded.

“We’ll provide more information about the additional potable areas, as well as plans and timelines for the remainder of customers, in future communications once we have received regulatory approval.”

“The work completed so far includes repairs to damaged infrastructure, replacement of equipment, repairs to collection lines, and drilling and recommissioning of over 70 new wells,” said Remington Wilchcombe, Grand Bahama Utility Company’s engineering manager.

“Areas that have been declared as potable since April are Hawksbill, Pinder’s Point, Wellington Heights, South Bahamia and Mac Town. In the interim, as we work toward island-wide potability, the discount will remain in place for residents that do not have potable water, and we will continue to provide free drinking water at our water distribution sites around the island.”

Carey Leonard, the Freeport-based Callenders & Co partner, echoed Mr Laroda on the threat posed

by Isaias. “That’s just what we need. A one-two-three punch. Good Lord. Dorian, COVID-19 and now another hurricane,” he told Tribune Business.

“Grand Bahama doesn’t need that and it looks like it will go through Nassau as well. We just have to hope it doesn’t get stronger, it’s a category one storm and moves through quickly. If it moves through quickly the damage will be a lot less usually. That’s all we can hope for.”

Noting that Isaias appeared to be following the same path as Hurricane Matthew, which struck both Nassau and Freeport in October 2016, Mr Leonard said the existing lockdown and COVID-19 restrictions meant Grand Bahama was unlikely to lose much commercial activity when the storm passed through.

“There’s a tremendous number of homes that still have tarpaulins on their roof, and I have a further feeling those roofs will be compromised,” he warned.

“Even if it’s not a strong storm, people are going to be affected.”

and all we can do is ride it out and see what happens.

The timing couldn’t be worse.”

While Freeport-based hardware stores have been permitted to open so residents can obtain hurricane-related materials, Mr Laroda said many in operation were at limited capacity and long customer queues had formed. And bank closures meant some persons were having challenges accessing much-needed funds to make these purchases, compounding the impact of job and income losses.

The GB Chamber chief, meanwhile, said that once the threat from Isaias had passed the government needed to develop “a longterm plan” setting out how this nation can better cope with COVID-19.

“We can’t continue to go into lockdown and shutdown,” he told Tribune Business. “As this happens we will have more businesses going under and not being able to come out of this. How do we survive?

“We cannot do this for a long time. We have to figure out how we balance both [the health and economic], as the shutdowns may do more damage than COVID19 does. We have to balance both.

“A lot of people are depending on what the government can do on the feeding programme. For businesses, it’s grants and low-cost loans, but in these circumstances the government will soon run out of money. We have to look ahead and see what options we can come up with.”

Mr Laroda hinted that the government may even have to look at the option recently deemed unconstitutional by the prime minister, and allow tourists to come in to revive The Bahamas’ largest industry and create badly-needed foreign exchange earnings, while barring Bahamians and residents from travelling abroad to stop COVID-19’s spread.

Saying he had heard arguments both for and against such a position, the GB Chamber chief added: “We have to look at all options to balance the economic with safety. There’s going to be some tough calls but we’re going to have to be prepared to make them. We cannot close out the year going to lockdowns and shutdowns.

“We as individuals also have to be more responsible as well. We need to take COVID-19 seriously and act in a responsible manner so that we don’t get into bad situations any more.” His last comment was a reference to the

Bahamian duo reject ‘collusion’ allegations FROM PAGE ONE

The condo owners’ claim, which has been obtained by Tribune Business, alleges that KW - without their knowledge or permission - removed the directors of the associations’ non-profit entity that oversaw the collection of their maintenance fees, association dues and other payments.

Their replacements, according to the lawsuit, were Mr Roberts and Mr Maury. Attached to the complaint was a copy of an April 5, 2019, filing to the Florida Division of Corporations showing the duo as directors of Bimini Sands Homeowners Association Phase One through Fifteen, which is the non-profit.

They had seemingly replaced Rick DeSantis, Adrien Capote, Tammy Cook and Todd Barna, with Mr Roberts and Mr Maury both sharing KW Property Management’s address. The address on the document matches the one on KW’s website, with the property manager also taking over as the non-profit’s registered agent.

The condo owners are alleging that replacing the long-standing directors with Mr Roberts and Mr Maury was done to facilitate KW’s access to the non-profit’s account at BB&T Bank in Florida, from which it purportedly made a series of “unauthorised transactions” totalling a six-figure sum.

These transfers, the Bimini Sands condo owners claim, were partially used to pay management fees and expenses incurred by Mr Roberts, as developer, on the 63 units he had yet to sell even though he made no financial contribution to the non-profit.

“Thus KW and the developer colluded to take the funds contributed by each of the Bimini Sands condominium unit owners of phases one through 11 to the Homeowners Association bank account by applying funds paid by individual unit owners to

cover maintenance fees and expenses for developerowned units,” the lawsuit alleges.

Mr Roberts yesterday dismissed the lawsuit as mischief-making by several condo owners as he denied the claims against him. “I don’t have to steal those millionaires’ money,” he joked to Tribune Business. “I’ve got enough money of my own. Some of those people have nothing else to do but make trouble or create trouble. Americans love to sue.

“I would have thought anything done in The Bahamas has to be the Bahamian courts. You don’t take Bahamian matters to US courts. We were fortunate to get them [KW] in the first instance. They are very qualified property managers. I can assure you KW have never done anything in their life.”

Acknowledging that he was aware of being appointed as a foundation director, Mr Roberts referred this newspaper to Mr Maury, who he named last year as his representative to manage Bimini Sands and ready it for sale. The ABM president, speaking to this newspaper, placed a completely different interpretation on events than the homeowners.

Mr Maury explained that he and Mr Roberts reluctantly agreed to be named as the non-profit’s directors because they were the only two Bahamian owners at Bimini Sands. This was necessary, he argued, because the maintenance and other fees were “not touching” The Bahamas because the foreign condo owners were unable to obtain Central Bank approval to open a Bahamian bank account.

“Not one of them was cleared on the bank account because they could not get Central Bank approval,” he explained, “so they had to put Mr Roberts and I on it. It’s that simple. I said I didn’t want to be on it and neither did Mr Roberts, but to set up the company they needed a Bahamian on it.

Who were the Bahamians?

Mr Roberts and myself.

SODOSASY LIMITED is in voluntary dissolution under the provisions of Section 138 (4) of the International Business Companies Act 2000.

The dissolution of the said company commenced on the 29th July, 2020 when the Articles of Dissolution were submitted to and registered by the Registrar General.

The Liquidator of the said company is Dizame Consulting S.A., P.O. Box 3149, Pasea Estate, Road Town, Tortola, British Virgin Islands.

“How does a homeowners association company operate out of the US with no Bahamian Business Licence and bank account and nothing else? The collection of fees is outside The Bahamas. It’s supposed to be run through The Bahamas but it’s not.”

Once the fees were paid into then BB&T bank account, Mr Maury said KW then transferred them to its account at Bank of The Bahamas for use in Bimini Sands’ upkeep as intended. Pointing out that KW was initially “voted in” to its management role by all 15 homeowners’ associations, who also signed the contract, Mr Maury dismissed the “collusion” claims contained in the lawsuit.

“That’s not true. That’s not true at all,” he retorted.

“That’s not how it happened. I worked for Mr Roberts, and I guarantee he didn’t collude or take money from anyone. He’s probably one of the richest Bahamians in this country.

There’s a new buyer in there and I don’t want to ruin their chances by saying more.”

That buyer is the Asplundh family, who originate from Philadelphia, and trace the source of their wealth to their 91-year-old business, Asplundh Tree Expert, which cuts trees and vegetation for electrical utility companies. Now under its third generation of family ownership, the company is described as a $3.1bn revenue business that employs a 35,000-strong workforce across multiple US states.

The Bimini Sands condo owners, in their lawsuit, admitted that they signed a property management agreement with KW’s Bahamian affiliate, Honey Cole Ltd, which gave “some level of access to Bimini Sands Homeowners Association records and the bank account”.

This agreement was allegedly terminated last year after the condo owners found that the non-profit directors and bank account signatories had been

changed, and they were no longer receiving regular financial statements.

The condo owners alleged they hired Alan Blass, a US accountant and fraud examiner, who identified that $422,042 in “unexplained transfers” had occurred between the nonprofit’s Florida bank account to KW’s Bank of The

Bahamas account via five transactions between September 18, 2018, and May 20, 2019.

He also allegedly found that another $301,537 in “unexplained transfers” had taken place between the nonprofit’s account and KW’s Florida operating account via 13 transactions between April 2018 and October

2019. A further $7,870 was taken out via the issuance of “unexplained cheques”, while a further $19,316 in capital reserve funds was also said to have “disappeared”.

Tribune Business efforts to obtain comment from KW Property Management proved unsuccessful yesterday. This newspaper was transferred to the voice mail.

Govt may ‘trim sails again’ on Isaias impacts FROM PAGE ONE insurance coverage is in place so we’ll see what happens.” The reference to insurance alludes to the government’s policy with the Caribbean Catastrophe Risk Insurance Fund (CCRIF), from which it received around $12m for Hurricane Dorian.

“We’ve had a series of terrible circumstances with Dorian, going into a pandemic and now another storm,” Mr Turnquest added. “The pandemic has not only caused us tremendous cost and lost productivity, but also hampered some of the ability and effort with the recovery from Dorian.”

While the COVID19 restrictions and tourism shutdown will minimise any revenuerelated losses from Isaias, the deputy prime minister predicted that the main impact would be felt on the $1.3bn deficit budget’s spending side should the storm significantly damage public infrastructure and create further economic dislocation.

“We are finalising our funding efforts or provisions, so we should have funding available, but it would mean we have to

YOUR

reallocate expenditure again,” he told Tribune Business. “Again, in any budget, there are needs and then there are critical needs.

“While we certainly have some commitments and priority programmes we’d like to do, we have to bear in mind that, unfortunately again, if it comes to that we’ll have to trim our sales one more time. This is the last thing we need, and we will have to deal with the consequences.”

Jeffrey Beckles, the Bahamas Chamber of Commerce and Employers Confederation’s (BCCEC) chief executive, told Tribune Business that Isaias’ projected category one winds of 64 miles per hour or greater were “still significant in an already-weakened economy that is as fragile as ours”.

He added: “We’ve been told that hurricanes will become more fierce and more frequent, and that is the environment we have to live in. As much as we talk about a new normal with COVID-19, we have a new climate environment which suggests we have to be more nimble and more attuned to the impact of climate change because we’re going to live with these storms more frequently. That’s the new environment we’re in.”

Building Code reform must be ‘grass roots’ FROM PAGE ONE Having sat through several meetings, both physical and online, the engineers’ chief said he had been “struck” by how seriously any changes were treated and the broadbased consultation of all affected parties.

Besides the construction industry and associated professions such as his, Mr Knowles said the Canadian Electrical Code technical committee also involved the likes of realtors and other industries that had some connection to the subject.

Turning to The Bahamas’ own building code reform efforts, he added: “What has me concerned is that there has been very little contact with people who use this code. As far as I’m aware there’s not been any kind of engagement.

“I am concerned that we have a code, an updated code, that was updated from purely one perspective, which is not the intent. It has not taken a grass roots effort to produce a code. The code is not usable as it is biased in one direction if you have a code update led by regulators or regulated entities without equal input from other sectors.

“I am concerned as to what impact that will have on the construction industry.

I’ve expressed that several times. I’m still hopeful they will engage the people, and engage them in meaningful ways so that we can produce

an updated code,” the BSE president continued.

“We are on the front lines and know what works to protect the industry’s safety and integrity, but we have to participate in these things. I’m very hopeful that we have something in the works. We have hurricane season upon us and we have not heard anything.

At the very least we are way behind.”

Mr Knowles said all other major buildingrelated codes, such as the US National Fire Protection Code, which is annexed to The Bahamas’ building code, followed standard procedures and processes to produce an outcome where all private and public sector stakeholders provided feedback.

Others, too, are just as interested in an updated Bahamas Building Code following the $3.4bn in losses and damages inflicted by Hurricane Dorian. Tom Duff, Insurance Company of The Bahamas’ general manager, writing in its annual report, said: “In the aftermath of Dorian, insurers will be forced to focus more on construction standards, elevation and proximity to the sea when underwriting property risks.

“In this regard, I am sure that my colleagues in the industry will share my desire to see government introduce a strengthening of the Bahamas building code as soon as other priorities allow.”

Govt rescues ‘last hurrah’ for hoteliers FROM PAGE ONE still employed. Our hotel is all 100 percent Bahamianran and managed, and so it will be affecting our Bahamian economy drastically if that had to happen. I am happy that the rescind order is going to take place so I just await that.

The Ministry of Tourism duly obliged within hours of Mr Davis talking to Tribune Business. Glenda Johnson, its chief licensing officer, in an e-mail notification sent to another senior hotel executive that was obtained by this newspaper, said: “Please be advised that the prime minister has reversed the decision. However, hoteliers are to be reminded that strict adherence to the protocols is to be followed.”

An official Ministry of Tourism statement said: “The Ministry of Tourism and Aviation wishes to advise that following consultation with the Ministry of Health, the competent authority has affirmed that a negative COVID-19 RT-PCR test will not be required by Bahamian and

resident guests of hotels.”

It added that public health measures must be observed, including mask wearing, social distancing and sanitisation protocols. Indoor dining is to be closed.

Muna Issa, managing director of SuperClubs Breezes, said: “We are very happy that the order requiring Bahamians to have a negative COVID test prior to checking in was reversed today. We are expecting Bahamians this weekend, so we are trying to determine how we will serve guests outdoors (in order to comply with the order) in light of Tropical Storm Isaias expected to deliver rainfall Friday evening into Saturday.”

Another small hotelier, speaking on a condition of anonymity, said: “The weekend lockdown is something that really helps, but this mandate of a negative COVID-19 test for all Bahamians is really putting a damper and a real big dent on small businesses right now. This is a shock, but what I will say is that this will only kill the small man.”

Wall Street slides, but tech strength helps avert a big loss NEW YORK Associated Press MOST of Wall Street stumbled yesterday, but yet another rise for big technology stocks helped keep the market’s losses in check.

The S&P 500 dropped 12.22 points, or 0.4%, to 3,246.22, with nearly three out of four stocks in the index falling. Among the hardest-hit were oil producers, banks and other companies that most need the economy to pull out of its recession. Treasury yields also sank in a sign of increased pessimism about the economy.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average lost 225.92 points, or 0.9%, to 26,313.65. Earlier in the morning, though, the market had seemed set for a much steeper fall. The Dow was down as many as 547 points, while the S&P 500 tumbled 1.7% within the first hour of trading.

Stronger-than-expected profit reports from UPS and other companies helped the market trim its losses through the day.

So did steadying prices for Amazon and other big tech-oriented stocks, which reported their own results after the day’s trading ended. Anticipation for their reports, which proved to be even better than Wall Street expected, helped the Nasdaq composite completely erase its early loss and climb 44.87, or 0.4%, to end the day at 10,587.81.

The jumbled trading came after a report showed

that layoffs are continuing at their stubborn pace across the country, denting hopes that the economy can recover nearly as quickly as it plummeted into recession. A separate report yesterday showed that the US economy contracted at a nearly 33% annual rate in the spring, the worst quarter on record.

Markets worldwide had already turned lower before those data releases dropped.

An earlier report showed that Germany’s economy, Europe’s largest, suffered through its worst quarter on record during the spring.

Investors had already been expecting the reports on the economy to be weak, “so the real story today for traders is earnings,” said Chris Larkin, managing director of trading and investment product at E-Trade Financial.

Thursday was the busiest day for profit reports among S&P 500 companies within the busiest week this earnings season.

Earnings reports have mostly been better than Wall Street’s expectations so far, but they’ve been far below year-ago levels, before the pandemic struck.

The big companies in the S&P 500 are on track to report a nearly 38% drop for the second quarter from a year earlier, according to FactSet. Energy stocks had some of the market’s sharpest losses, dropping in concert with oil prices amid worries

THE TRIBUNE

Wall Street slides, but tech strength helps avert a big loss FROM PAGE NINE about a weaker economy.

Exxon Mobil dropped 4.9%, and ConocoPhillips lost 5.8%.

Financial stocks were also weak, hurt by a drop in interest rates that reins in the profits to be made from lending. JPMorgan Chase fell 2.7%, and Citigroup lost 3.1% On the winning end was UPS, which jumped 14.4% to a record high after reporting revenue and profits for the spring that blew past analysts’ expectations.

It benefited from more people getting deliveries at home amid the pandemic.

Qualcomm rose 15.2% after it also reported stronger-than-expected quarterly results, while announcing it had resolved a dispute with Huawei and signed a new license agreement.

Shortly after trading ended for the day, Amazon, Apple, Facebook and Google’s parent company all reported bigger profits for the latest quarter than Wall Street had forecast.

Apple also announced a 4-for-1 stock split.

Expectations were already high for each of the giants. Their stocks are all up at least 14% this year, when the S&P 500 is up just 0.5%. Amazon is up more than 65%.

Investors have continued to flock to them on expectations that their growth will only continue as the pandemic accelerates life’s shift toward online. Their huge size also gives their stocks’ movements great sway over index funds: The four alone account for nearly 16% of the S&P 500 by market value.

Investors are also continuing to wait for signs of progress from Capitol Hill, where Congress is debating how and whether to offer more aid for the economy ravaged by the pandemic.

An extra $600 in weekly unemployment benefits from the federal government is about to expire, and that cash is growing in importance as the number of laid-off workers ticks higher.

A little more than 1.4 million US workers applied for unemployment benefits last week, according to a report yesterday from the Labor

Department. That’s up by 12,000 from a week earlier.

Yesterday’s loss for the S&P 500 gave back some of its big gain from the day before, when the Federal Reserve pledged to keep interest rates at their record low but highlighted how uncertain the path is for the economy due to the pandemic. It was the second time that the index has flipflopped on consecutive days this week.

The yield on the ten-year Treasury fell to 0.55% from 0.58% late on Wednesday. It tends to move with
