SKULLDUGGERY
Good news / bad news
Our Home Owners Association (HOA) had an election in December. Board of directors.
For the first time in living memory the East Side of our complex gained control of the board. Decidedly. Not close.
Within minutes there was upset. The incumbents could not believe it. Did not accept it.
We have a CPA who handles the whole process. The report is unmistakably the outcome. We have copies of the letters.
But, the secretary of the board who is not a member wrote the wrong results into the minutes and the old board, as its last act, accepted the secretary's wrong results which, surprise, surprise, re-elected all officers.
So the Board met and elected Board Officers.
And did other shit they had no authority to do.
Consternation on the part of the newly elected members. Major shit hitting the fan.
Somewhere in here "someone" told the CPA to destroy the ballots. They are gone.
The new members who do not trust the retained board lawyer are seeking alternative advice.
Now all of this is subject to very finely delineated regulations. It will all come out in the wash.
This has been going on a long timer. East vs. West, two separate tracts in the same complex, new versus old, leasing versus permanent owners, young versus old. There is plenty of division go go around.
We are in the east, we will support the proper election and, if necessary will give some money to it.
But, there is no way that either one of us is going to get involved in what is a high stress goat fuck. We are getting our popcorn out and watching the show.
