09/04/25 - Non compliance with co-ownership rules
Dear Co-owners,
The Co-ownership council states a number of instances where works have been completed by co-owners although not complying with the co-ownership rules and are asking for late approval by all the owners during the yearly General Meeting. The Co-ownership Council wanted to make you aware of such practices and confirms his disapproval (see attached pictures)
Some cases of abusive use of the balconies and other places for storage are also seen ( see attached pictures as exemples)

19/12/22 - Resignation of our President
Dear Co-owners,
This is to inform you that unfortunately the President of our co-owners' Council Louis Marasco has had to resign from his role due to ill-health, on the advice of his doctor.
We would all like to thank Louis for many years of hard work in the service of the co-ownership, previously as caretaker as well as on the Council, and to wish him all the best for a really well-deserved retirement.
We will be in touch again soon about the arrangements for the Council going forward.
Best wishes,
The Co-ownership Council.
09/10/22 - Effects of increase of energy costs

09/10/22 - New mail address
The following mail address will now be used by the Council for realeasing information messages to the owners :
conseil.syndical@lesglieres.fr
A first message was sent on Sept 9th 2022
We recommend to those who have not received this message to :
- Make sure that this message has not been blocked as a Spam by their mailbox.
- Make sure their email address has been communicated to the Council. (Can be done through the website page "Resident's voice / Contacts")

21/09/22 - Effects of increase of energy costs
Hello everyone,
At the end of 2021, we were forced to choose a new energy supplier. As per the recommendations of a consultant, we chose Energem with its “ARENH” proposal (with rates under government control implying the use of a proportion of electricity of nuclear origin). After a few months of use, we can now report the consequences of that decision. Beyond the unavoidable increase in cost per kWh, we are heavily impacted by the increasing cost of energy during night hours (the gap between night & day rates is less and less favourable). Consequently, the cost of electricity through the communal system, even at the night rate, is getting higher than the cost to individual apartments. The Co-ownership Council is therefore having to review the temperature setting of the common floor heating.
You’ll be kept informed of any developments.
With regards,
The Co-ownership Council
15/09/22 - Information on September works
Hello everyone,
Despite our resolutions to stop noisy works during summer and winter seasons (from 15/06 to 15/09 and from 10/12 to 01/05), we had to accept beginning of works on upper car park and painting of woodworks on eastern facades of E & F blocks before the 15th of September.
This is because of reduced availability of contractors during intermediate season.
Understanding the disturbances this has caused to residents, the Council and the Agent hope you will excuse them.
With regards,
The Co-ownership Council

06/04/22 - Progress review of works voted during General meetings of 2020 & 2021:
2022 General meeting coming soon, it is the proper occasion to review the status of the works that were voted during 2020 & 2021 GM's. Several informations have be included in the agenda sent out, but this is a more comprehensive review... Please click on next icon.
With regards,
The Co-ownership Council
17/03/22 - The next General Meeting is postponed from April 22nd to April 29th :
You have likely stated that calls for fees have been sent very late for the past year, this was mainly linked to the judicial managament during a large part of 2021.
These delays had an effect on the closing of the accounting exercise by the agent and therefore, also delayed the checking of the accounts by the Co-ownership Council.
In order to achieve this checking in a proper manner, the agent (CIS) and the Council have jointly decided to postpone the next General Meeting.
The council still hopes most of you will attend this meeting or your mail vote or attendance through a power of attorney.
With regards,
The Co-ownership Council
11/03/22 - Errors stated on the 2020 tap water bill:
The bill was calculated based on an wrong estimate (the new Veolia rule for estimates was taking in account the total surface of apartments) but in fact the real consumption did not increase.
We can now state that consumption and (costs) that incurred in 2021 are even lower than those of 2019, and that the total consumption of 2020 2nd half and 2021 first half is less that the yearly general average. Comforting!
Thanks to the new connected meter, the billing will soon be based on actual consumption.
With regards,
The Co-ownership Council
28/01/2022 - 2022 Directions.
The Co-ownership Council team wishes you all the best for this new year.
After this, too long period under judicial administration, here we are at last back to work to finalize the projects already financed and to prepare others, including those that will be proposed to you at the April General Meeting 2022.
All of these projects will soon be developed and commented on our web page: www.lesglieres.fr
We prefer for the next General Assembly, to remain on a less demanding level of expenses for future works in the coming year, especially due to delays in calls for maintenance charges for 2021.
The projects that will be proposed to you will include, among others :
- Renovation of the corridors on the ground floor (floors and walls)
- Replacement of mailboxes
- The resurfacing of the upper part of the residence
And also including the other points that require maintenance interventions (electrical cabinets and underfloor heating resistors, streetlights).
We are also working on subjects that are imposed on us such as charging points for electric vehicles, a subject on which you will soon be consulted.
You will also be consulted on the installation of an automatic door for building C which would be financed by all the owners.
Finally, we recently received the result of the study for the repair of the side areas of the pool, but we have yet to gather the detailed information on this proposal. We prefer to postpone this work as well as others relating to the swimming pool and take the time to consult you on the choices before submitting the budgets to be voted on at the General Meeting.
We are of course always at your disposal.
Sincerely
Louis Marasco, President and the entire Co-ownership Council team
26/10/2021 - New General Meeting scheduled on 18/11/2021.
Dear co-owners,
Following the inability to elect our trustee at the April 2021 general meeting with the necessary majority, a new General Meeting is mandatory and is scheduled for November 18, 2021 for the renewal of the trustee contract.
This new General Assembly can this time take place face-to-face.
If you cannot be present, you have the possibility, as in the past, to transmit your Proxy to another co-owner who would be present. This Proxy can be blank and leave to the initiative of the person voting on your behalf for each resolution, but you can also impose your choice for each resolution.
You can also vote by email by sending your ballot to the judicial administrator Mr. Bernard, in this case your email must arrive at least 3 days before the GA, or by sending this email to another owner who will present it during the AG as a Proxy.
As in April, the Union Council has chosen to propose only two trustees, but it is nevertheless necessary that one of the two trustees in the running reaches 1/3 of the votes (33% of total owners units) from the first round, otherwise we will continue under the administration of a judicial trustee which is an expensive procedure and slows down the good management of our residence.
So once again:
Please VOTE THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT!
If you are undecided on the choice of the trustee, we recommend that you transmit your proxy in blank to a member of the co-ownership council of your choice, who will know how to make the best use of it during the General Assembly.
Contrary to the wishes of the co-ownership council, and to the disappointment of its members, the summons you will receive unfortunately cannot be limited to the sole vote to determine our new trustee. In fact, the court order that set up our judicial trustee requires that all the resolutions that were presented at the April AGM be resubmitted to a vote. The co-ownership Council recommends voting again as you did in April.
We take advantage of this email to inform you that the choice of the ASE trustee will entail a one-off cost of resumption of accounting in the order of € 16,580 including tax.
The Co-ownership Council as well as the judicial trustee recommend electing the trustee for a period until 06/30/2023 (see CS meeting report of 09/07/2021).
On the other hand, a demanding owner sent a request to register additional resolutions to our judicial trustee and the latter is obliged to register them. Given the too short time between the receipt of this request and the sending of invitations, the Union Council was not able to assess these requests which require long external consultations.
Kind Regards
The Co-ownership Council of Le Glières
Bourg Saint Maurice 25/10/2021
23/09/2021 - Continued maintenance of 2nd floor inner corridors (Paintings and Floorings) (From 10/10/21) .
Dear co-owners,
The refurbishing of the 2 floor inner corridors (Paintings and carpets), voted in GA 2020 (resolutions 23 & 25) will begin by the 10th of October 2021.
These painting works concern the corridor walls, apartment doors and doorframes. Any tags will be removed from the doors and replaced by new numbering.
The company Duchosal, which is in charge of this work, will need the apartment’s doors to be opened.
The owners of the lots concerned must therefore ensure that access to their apartments is possible:
- either by being present themselves
- or by making the key to their apartment available to the caretaker if this is not already the case.
- or they delegate to a third party of their choice the responsibility to give access to the apartments during the works.
If the owners cannot guarantee access to the apartments, the work will not be carried out in full. And any subsequent resumption can only take place at the owners expense.
We thank the owners to pass on above information to their tenants.
16/09/2021 - Errors stated on the 3rd quarter call for fees will be corrected on the 4th quarter call.
The next agent who should hopefully be soon elected will have to enter all fees data in his management system as well as all payments that have been done by the owners. The new agent will therefore be able to issue automatically the new call for fees with included excess or due payments. (It is hoped that the new agent will be in place before the 4quarter call for fees)
15/09/2021 - Continued woodworks maintenance (cladding, windows shutters & balconies) on block B west face, Block A faces west and south (from mid Sept to end Oct.).
Dear co-owners,
The maintenance work of the exterior woodwork voted in GA 2020 (resolution 21) concerning the Bloc A South facades; Block B West & Block C West (according to the original name - sketch in PJ) which were planned before summer 2021 will begin in mid September.
The company ARS 2000, which is in charge of this work, will install scaffolding for the facade work, but will also need access to the apartments and balconies to resume painting of the railings and doorframes.
The owners of the lots concerned must therefore ensure that access to their apartments is possible:
- either by being present themselves
- or by making the key to their apartment available to the caretaker if this is not already the case.
- or they delegate to a third party of their choice the responsibility to give access to the apartments during the works.
Owners should also remove any objects from balconies that could interfere with painter’s work and to avoid any "accidental" damage.
If the owners cannot guarantee access to the apartments, the work will not be carried out in full. And any subsequent resumption can only take place at the owners expense.
We thank the owners to pass on above information to their tenants.
12/08/2021 - Errors on the 3rd quarter call for fees :
The temporary agent has started to send the 3rd quarter call for fees, that some of us have already received.
Some errors have been identified (for example "common errors" : share of regular fees for the 3rd quarter ; and "individual errors" : inapropriate or missing "tantiemes" value" on some lines)
It is recommended to settle these fees by bank transfer (automatic bank debit is not possible), the Iban # is missing but needed and will have to be communicated by the agent.
A common mail will be sent to the owners by the Co-ownership Council for information.
Each owner having identified errors should write to the agent (mail) who will regularize afterwards
The calls for fees are in line with decisions and planned calendar from the 2020 & 2021 general meetings.
03/08/2021 - Update about the swimming pool supervision (continued) :
The Co-ownership Council and the temporary agent call a new service provider for the supervision of the swimming pool during the month of August.
30/07/2021 - Update about the swimming pool supervision. :
Further to the difficulties met by the company in charge of the swimming pool supervision to have personnel attending during expected hours and days, it has been decided to involve an other company and to put an end to the initial contract.
The Co-ownership Council and the temporary agent are doing their best to have the supervision back in place during the month of August.
02/06/2021 - Comment about counting of the votes during the last General Meeting:
We have received many questions about the counting of the votes shown in the minutes of our last General Meeting, and this requires explanations.
The minutes show the list of votes « Opposants à la résolution adoptée » (Opponents to the adopted resolution) and « Abstentions » for each resolution.
In the list of « Opposants à la résolution adoptée », it should be understood that the list counts the owners who have voted in opposition to the decision of the assembly.
Therefore, « Opposants à la résolution adoptée » are those who:
- Have voted « Against » a resolution whereas the majority has voted “For”
- Have voted « For » a resolution whereas the majority has voted “Against”
03/06/2021 - The Co-ownership Council has met the legal trustee:
Two members of the Co-ownership Council have met the legal trustee Mr Michel Bernard, who has annouced the soon sending of the 2021 General Meeting minutes and the call for fees. (See Council meeting minutes dtd 03/06/2021).
Mr Bernard details:

21/05/2021 - Further to the failure to choose an agent and to the action of the Co-owners Committee through a lawyer, the Court of Justice of Albertivlle has nominated a legal trustee for the management of the Residence:
The President of the Court of Justice of Albertville has nominated Mr Michel Bernard from Albertville as legal trustee in order to:
- Collect archives from CIS Immobilier.
- Takeover the control of bank accounts of the co-ownership.
- Manage the co-ownership until an agent is elected during a new General Meeting.
- Call ASAP for a new GM for the above reason.
His mission will cease as soon as an agent is nominated.
PS : We ask you to wait for the instructions of the legal trustee to proceed with the payment of your fees.
29/04/2021 - No agent elected during the last General Meeting !
The most important resolution of that last General Meeting was the election of the agent.
Two agents were proposed to the vote: the current agent (CIS) and a new one (ASE). The result was almost identical: CIS obtained 29281 “tantièmes” and ASE 29209.
Unfortunately, because of the high number of owners who did not vote and because of the choice of others to abstain, the required level of 33334 “tantièmes” was not reached to allow a second round.
Because of this, we are therefore left without any agent since last Monday at 23:59, which was the time where CIS contract terminated. CIS is now unable to release the General Meeting minutes by registered mail. It should nevertheless be available on CIS website in the next days.
CIS refused to call immediately for a new General Meeting although it was still possible to avoid the resulting situation.
This is what is going to happen during the next weeks and months for our residence:
The President of Albertville court was seized by a lawyer, assigned by the Co-ownership Council who settled in advanced incurring expenses. The President will assign a legal agent who will be tasked to gather all documents currently held by CIS, continue the administrative & financial management of the residence and to set up a new General Meeting in the next months in order to elect an agent.
Engagement of all will be needed for this next General Meeting in order to avoid extending that situation which already took place about ten years ago.
Counting on your support, the Co-ownership council remains at your disposal for any enquiry.
PS : All residence accounts are now freezed since the end of CIS contract, we ask those who have not yet paid the fees for the second quarter to wait until the legal agent is in place.
24/03/2021 - Visioconference meeting organized on 13/04 in order to present all items of the next General Meeting agenda.
Given the fact that the next General Meeting will not allow physical attendance and will only allow ballot voting, a visioconference information meeting will be held on 13 of April at 09:00 to allow co-owners to question the agent and the co-ownership Council about the items of GM agenda.
Use the link provided by our agent (within the invitation to the GM) to get connected to the visioconference.
27/03/2021 - Message from the co-ownership Council about the importance of voting at the next General Meeting because of the renewal of the contract for our agent.

21/03/2021 - Message from the Council about the floor heatiingle sol
We have received many complaints about collective heating expressing the extreme cold felt in the apartments.
We have focused on understanding the reasons for this and identifying solutions while preserving the original goals of economy and equity.
We discussed these findings and propose several actions: (detailed in the document below).

03/03/2021 - The General Meeting 2021 will take place on 23/04/21
Due to the health emergency and related governement measures, physical attence of the owners will again not be possible. After approval by the co-ownership council, CIS, the co-ownership agent has recommended a vote excusively by mail (letter or e-mail). The General Meeting will therefore consist only in a counting of received votes. Only the voting grids with the list of all resolutions will be allowed, the "power of attorney forms" will not be allowed.
Important: A preliminary videoconference meeting will be organized about ten days before the official General Meeting day. All owners will be invited to attend. All resolutions listed on the agenda will be presented and discussed during that videoconference.
These modalities will be soon detailed....
09/11/2020 - The 2020 General Meeting will take place on November 27th at 10:00 without physical presence of the owners!
You have likely received the invitation sent on October 26th for the 2020 GM which will be held on 27/11. But due to the sanitary emergency and related governement measures, physical attence of the owners will not be possible. After approval by co-ownership committee, CIS, the co-ownership agent has just released a memo specifying procedures for remote voting and with annexed message from the co-ownership committee.
Click on the link beside for access to the CIS memo and annexed message from the co-ownership committee (In French)
Short translation of the CIS memo:
"Dear sirs,
You have received the invitation for the next General Meeting taking place on 27/11/2020 at 10:00.
Latest sanitary measures do not allow the physical attendance of the owners.
A decree released on May 2020 allows for a special procedure without the physical attendance of the owners. After consulting the co-ownership committee, it has been decided that the next General meeting will be held as per this decree.
You can therefore:
-Attend the GM by video conference (you have to send a mail before Nov 23rd to syndic@cis-immobilier.com with indication of the Email address you want to use for the conference).
-Use the traditional power of attorney form and send it with your signature by mail to CIS or to the proxy of your choice who will be attending the video conference.
-Use and send the ballot form annexed to the invitation to CIS before Nov 23rd by mail
We recommend sending your power of attorney to a proxy who will be able to attend the videoconference with a good internet connection and used to attendance to GM’s.
S. Bernard
