Poa
[I]I have often tried to explain that owning in TV is analogous to owning stock in a corporation. The decisions for any corporation are made by the upper echelon execs and the board. In publicly held businesses, stockholders can offer opinions at annual meetings or whenever. In reality, the corporation is going to do what is best for the corporation. But corporations want to keep stockholders happy, too, so that factors in — gotta keep that stock price up and running.[/I]
Wouldn't it be great if the developer followed this business model just a little? I fantasize about going to the "A Night With The Developer presentation (or whatever it's called) and he starts by saying: "I follow social media and know there are owners who are concerned about expansion, increasing costs, crime, troubled underage children and the like, so let me address some of these issues."[/I] But that ain't going to happen, except in my dreams. |

Although I'm already paid up for the next three years, because of their tireless efforts (unpaid to boot), an additional donation in appreciation...is definitely something I will do. Until he moves here and I can get him a real subscription...I'll make it an honorary donation from Ken'swing. |

I totally agree with your view

I recall an elderly lady who had a wooden ramp for her wheel chair. According to the LAW, they notified her she must get it painted. After several according to the LAW notices they started fining her. THINK-who was right? The neighbor or neighbors who reported her or the neighbors who got together and painted it for her? |

I guess you're missing the part about asking if it's permissible, and signing a hold harmless, and "assisting" someone else. That would, by implication, mean that someone else knows he/she is being assisted.
It's not trespassing if you are given permission to do it, by whichever authority is authorized to give permission to do it. Whether the homeowner him/herself, or the Power of Attorney holder, or the Executor of the Estate, or other authorized persons who, themselves, have permission to make those decisions on behalf of the homeowner. |

The current VHA came into existence as a result of a failed takeover of the POA, and not even done cleverly, by the developer. That failed attempt resulted in the formation of the current developer backed VHA. This is only offered because in my 19 years living here, most think the POA was the insurgent group. |

Andrew Blechman wrote about POA/VHA history in some depth in his book, "Leisureville". I found it quite revealing and informative.

It does seem quite strange to me though, that some seem to have a real negative knee-jerk reaction toward something that is simply trying to provide some info, a balancing viewpoint and a peek behind the curtain...in addition to primarily advocating for us residents. What's so darned wrong with that? I really...don't get it. |
