You are right nana, CSD and RMA do need to work together.
If RMA chooses to bring in their own security people, that doesn't mean that they will control the gates. CSD, in their security code has that responsibility and that is part of what we pay taxes for. RMA *does not* contract for that service.
In the past, there was a judgement made against CSD when they were trying to replace their security officers with a private firm, and I suspect that that will play a role in this case too.
Bottom line - RMA cannot decide to do away with the CSD gate officers. Those are CSD union employees which receive no monies from RMA.
I don't really think that residents who deduct their security taxes from their income tax want to give up their deduction.
And I'm sure that the CSD BOD understand that they are responsible for providing securit for *all* of the RMDistrict, and not just for the residents that belong to RMA. That will become more important as development continues.
