Unfounded Accusation

What is the Radburn Act?

Rebuttal

By Michael Alegre

After the 10:00am September 1,2021 meeting it was agreed it would be fair to address the articles written By Barbara Egner in the September bulletin. That article was so politically motivated and false, I had to send a copy to the State and this is the response I received from the Association Regulation Unit:

“Mr. Alegre. I spoke with the assoc. atty about the election law requirements. It appears they understand what needs to be done. If you choose, you can point out that things did not change until you contacted DCA. It is routine to have boards use their communication monopoly to assert they are always right. (I could write an entire book chapter in the misrepresentations board Presidents make to justify actions that do not comport with the law but which conveniently support their positions or hold on power.)

Until the law mandates equal time/access for owners when boards attack them or misrepresent facts, it is something each assoc. will have to deal with on its own. You can take solace in the fact that they felt the need to do this, which to me shows weakness at best.

The law needs to require that boards formally make our letters available to owners as part of the minutes (another reason to change board leadership so new members can see those letters). It is typical that, even when we point out board violations of owner rights and demand compliance, that boards announce the State supports them. In a recent case in which my letter excoriated a Board Pres for repeatedly cancelling elections for over a year (one of the most scathing letters I have written to a board), she outrageously reported that the DCA supported her position. Unfortunately, I am precluded from making my letter public, so I urged the complainant to demand that the board pres. make my letter available to the members-which she naturally would not do (and thus reveal her misrepresentation). As in your case I spoke with the atty to ensure he knew there would be monetary penalties if an election were not held in the immediate future- which is happening there.

This entire area needs much more legislative attention geared to protecting owners-starting with counsel fees for owners. The legislature needs to provide budgetary support for actual staffing if it expects the State to enforce all owner rights. I am overwhelmed with all manner of election complaints and inquiries (many of which are not directly addressed by the law and require interpretation -hampered by the need to adapt to a Covid situation) over the entire State and cannot keep up with what needs to be done. “

ME: You can see where the State is heading to help Shareowners stand up to the abuse Boards use against them. I have been doing the same, and every time I uncovered the truth, I stood up and provided it. Getting this Board to discuss or provide anything has always been an uphill battle since the first day I met them on July 23,2020. Because of the encouragement of many shareholders, I persevered. As a result of my journey, many good things have been accomplished, giving the voters a real chance for change. I do apologize to the shareowners for the seemingly constant public arguments I have had to go through, just to get your rights protected. It was the game they chose for many years. I hope everything in the end will turn out for the good, God Bless you all.

Barbara wrote that they were forced to contact the DCA and that was not accurate. The DCA ARU contacted them and the attorney first only because I filed a complaint. Also the complaint I filed had nothing to do with the 2020 election, it had to do with the Current 2021 election violations they attempted to execute. I have tried for over a year to discuss civilly different concerns about this 2021 election as you listen to this recording you can see that is impossible. I am the first person with the strength to put up a good fight, along with deep research, and with the advice and support from State agencies I have proven how misleading this Board has been for several years. My whole story will be available in a folder of chain letters, emails and other responses. You can contact me by sending an information request to: michael.alegre@comcast.net.

My efforts resulted in having 6 seats to be open for election instead of the 2 this board tried to enforce. Barbara also wrote they vacated their seats like they did something good for you, that is not true.

"Over the past year I have exhibited how the current BOD has not been in compliance with all the current Shareholders Governing Documents. The continued negation of the shareowners’ rights has energized me to run for election. All my findings are available upon request. The bylaws are our bill of rights." Why did this have to be removed?"

My Journey has been like pushing a boulder up hill. This Board had ran this HOA using dominance tactics for years. I fought for the shareowners rights and had to be just a little louder than the BOD to be heard. I regret that some shareowners were upset by the angst that needed to be used to get this far, but there was no other way and I always made sure my information was 100% rock solid. I fought for you and I won for you, now I have been campaigning for a complete new board to get our community back together. My accomplished exploration has given you the shareowners a once in a lifetime chance for complete change. You must vote for a complete new Board for this to be a success. If you look at recent history this year, they raised your fees per month resulting in a windfall of income for spending by the current board in the amount of approximately $200,000.00 This year they added and raised the spending in maintenance and payroll increasing by $240,000.00. Not finally but all in the same year this Board voted to make an agreement by using an "Use and Occupancy Agreement" to lease our rental parking to the First Aid for the sum of $1 for five years, renewable for $1 for the next 5 years. The result of this agreement will result in lost income at the minimum rate of $25,000.00 per year for 10 years or a total of $250,000.00. The board has a fiduciary to protect our assists not give them away. Our bylaws specifically say the Board cannot lease property with out 2/3 of the shareowners votes, so the went around this by signing a "Use and Occupancy Agreement". The use of this agreement in a lease format is illegal. If elected I will always protect your assets.

On July 2 of this year I was the only person opposing the current board for reelection. As my writings and discovery were being spread several people had stepped up and submitted resumes. As you can imagine my excitement got elevated. As of this writing there are 7 new candidates seeking the 6 open seats plus any directors seeking reelection. The field is about 13 for 6 seats. As is any Board of Directors majority rules. I am not saying we are all going to agree on every issue but I will say nothing is going to be rubber stamped anymore, nothing will be contracted with out 3 bids, nothing will be spent without a binding vote in front of the shareowners. All current Governing Documents will be followed and not circumvented like this BOD does at will.

It is a big sacrifice to sit on a Board of Directors, for all of the current candidates the dedication must be foremost, this cannot be a casual devotion. People who know me and the history of my work ethics will verify my working days are long and well thought-out. I will bring this to the HCB Board of Directors. I will never wavier in my commitment to the shareowners, I will always make sure your rights are protected. I have a complete library of facts for anything I have in the past used to defend your shareowners rights and I will make them available upon request to: michael.alegre@comcast.net

Anything I provide in my library can not be contested and I have, and still do invite all current directors to prove anything false. They have refused to debate my findings because they can not prove them wrong. Lastly why would they demand I rewrite my rebuttal for the October bulletin demanding I do not reference the DCA?

Since the last meeting, the Bulletin was printed misrepresenting the laws, the required details in the minutes, and a scolding of the shareowners by the President. Several upset Shareowners have sent to the Bulletin Director Mary Comments to be printed about our President's continued condescending writings and speech. To this day there is no record of apology for his behavior. I personally sent in a correct outline of what the laws demand when writing the minutes, to Mary for print, again the Board continues to snowball the shareowners who can not attend with false information printed in the bulletin. The Law says they must include in the minutes every subject matter discussed in an open meeting. They continue to just print the talking points that make them look competent. they never answer my question about fines, but they know how to talk about fines that have nothing to do with the question. They do that a lot throughout all the meetings if listen closely. The President misused the Roberts Rule "Point of Order" in a mocking way towards me. I think he meant let us keep order, but the only out of order was him. Listen closely.

The Radburn Act was to be enforced in May 2020 over a year ago. The following sentence implies that each association has different guidelines. It should say All associations. The adopted Radburn Act Amendments along with all the other statutes in Laws are the shareowners' rights enforceable by the Department of Consumer Affairs. Other Important examples are Notice of meetings, Binding votes must be taken in an open meeting to all shareowners BEFORE they can act on anything. This Binding vote amendment since May 2020 has been violated and is continued to be ignored by this current BOD
