Hello all.

Our HOA recently has allowed a home based multi-level marketing business provide not one but two presentations and use our clubhouse for such. It was being arranged by one of our homeowners, who is in fact a neighbor of our President of our HOA.
I know this for fact as I was invited and attended one of the meetings.

I recently submitted a request to see if our clubhouse could be used for a training session for some local volunteers of the hospice that I am employed by. I got a blatent NO from the HOA and they furthered it by saying that the decision was made due to them needing the club house in the event of rentals. ( IT'S BEEN OVER 2 MONTHS AGO SINCE THE HOME BASED BUSINESS PRESENTED IN OUR CLUBHOUSE.. AND NOTHING NOTHING HAS BEEN ARRANGED THERE, NO PRIVATE PARTIES, OR EVENTS SINCE THEN...... I know this as I am the key holder to the clubhouse and on the social committee.. )

I have since then come to the conclusion that there is something that I should do, but not sure how to go about it. I orignally requested by email to the HOA for the room.. so that is where I stopped communications.

My goal is not to cause a ruckass, but rather not it clear that what goes for one, should go for all.

ALso I feel that this action by the HOA and directly the president has a bit of prejudice about this, I am fearful to even mention this due to the nature of our sue happy President.

Seek clarification as to why one activity was allowed and another not.

Do so in writing and wait to see the response before allowing yourself to make a judgement.

THEN seek ways to pursue your request within the claification's content (i.e.standards) and see to it that ALL future requests are held to those standards.

What's done is done, move forward.
