I wanted to thank Glen and the others who have been very supportive and informative on my most recent issues that I have posted. Some very interesting and eye opening information was shared with me, and with without you fine folks directing my inquires nothing would of happened.
I posted a few weeks ago about our clubhouse rental agreement all of a sudden was a huge 4 paged contract that included many new "rules" and big changes one of many was no alcohol at functions, another was a raise of double the rent..
I essentially turned here to vent but yet also obtain information. Being this is a HOA in California, we follow the DSA or Davis Sterling. Our current board essentially re-wrote our entire rules for clubhouse use, and provided a new rental agreement that nobody in our membership was presented. The contract, rules etc, were forged behind closed doors in executive sesssion and saying that we as a community had NO idea this was being done.
I received the newly done contract, almost fainted over the restrictions and rules that seemed to fit some needs of individuals and did NOT cater to our community as a whole. I posted my concerns here and Glen reposted DSA laws regarding rule changes.
I emailed this along with a formal complaint of non compliance, handed out our 4 paged contract with NEW RULES to some homeowner's who did the same.
Today, a week later, I got a call from our management company who stated" we can not apologize enough about this, the board is beyond sorry and you were right" "We did NOT follow Davis Sterling and because of your tenacity on this subject, we are forced to do this correctly. Our contract will be re written, veiwed by the membership and allowed to vote yes no etc etc etc.
THANK YOU HOATALK. Because of you, our very controlling HOA President and her passive partners have been corrected, and they have learned, they can NOT dictate new rules on whime without allowing the membership due right to veiw, vote etc.
