BOARD TO VOTE ON FINE SCHEDULE THIS SATURDAY AT 1O AM


 IT'S ON THE AGENDA FOR  DISCUSSION/VOTE

The only way the board will know that you don't want a fine schedule is to show up and tell them how you feel.

About 8 years ago the board was actively in the process of changing our CC&Rs with a committee working on giving us CC&Rs right out of the Condo Blue Book. Heck the rules were so strict that you could be violated if your kids left their toys out your drapes that faced the street were the wrong color or heaven forbid you planted flowers that weren’t to their taste.

A group of us members got together and got the word out to all the members, the members rose to the occasion and filled the hacienda meeting hall with over 100 members and we stopped the nonsense.

Now this board is trying to impose their standards on us once again and if they are successful on imposing this fine schedule mark my words, the next thing will be our CC&R’s.  I can safely assume this because when I talked to one of the directors recently, she told me that the attorney who gave the fines seminar last month (most of the board attended) told her that our CC&R’s were obsolete and needed changing.  Also this director was on the CC&R committee 8 yrs ago… Hmmm

I don’t know about you, but when I bought my home I read and agreed to my CC&R’s and there was nothing in them about a fines schedule.   

The Association belongs to all members, not just a few and if you don’t speak out, you won’t have a say on what happens.
