Fellow HOA-ers….long time lurker, first time poster. I’ve done a search and cannot find any good answers.
We recently moved to a small neighborhood in Georgia. 60 homes, 70 empty lots –mostly owned by one investor (fall out from the real estate meltdown).
Our quarterly meeting is coming up and tacked on to the meeting is a special meeting focusing on taxes and the county development code and the “financial implications from each topic”. The problem is, the President is referencing development code that requires pools, playgrounds, and clubhouses and from what a neighbor discovered and confirmed, the code doesn’t apply to us as it was adopted after we were platted.
Our neighborhood has an entrance sign and that’s it – no other common property.
The President at first refused and now ignores requests to explain the purpose of the special meeting. One of my neighbors has made repeated requests on the HOA message board. I have great concern that the board is trying to pursue something that doesn’t apply to us because a few people want these things. I moved in to this neighborhood based on the fact we didn’t’ have this stuff and being retired, I am on a budget and don’t want to pay for these things IF that’s what the meeting is about.
Thoughts on explaining special meetings and board transparency??
Thank you.
