Susan Feels Really Peeved Over Abuse

During our meeting in August, a member raised concerns about the upkeep of our property owners list, which is not being managed effectively, leading to unknown amounts of wasted postage and returned mail expenses.

Currently, Carol Wilk serves as the Secretary, and I believe she has held this position for more than four years. Therefore, I find it perplexing that our owners’ contact and mailing list is in such a poor condition.

The board and property management assert that maintaining an accurate address list is not their responsibility, even though this duty is outlined in our ByLaws and mandated by state law for property owners associations functioning under a nonprofit status.

The concern about owners receiving proper notifications and information has been repeatedly raised by the owners themselves. If the Board of Directors were fulfilling their responsibilities to ALL OWNERS, rather than just the small group that engages with them and showers them with praise, perhaps I wouldn’t have felt the need to start this blog. It feels like a massive echo chamber here, and if you don’t join in, you will face consequences!

I’ve come across the mailing list they claim to use for contacting our owners, and the condition of that list is shocking. I can’t believe our Board of Directors permits our management company to maintain such a substandard list.

This leads me to conclude one thing: they DO NOT want all owners to be involved. When you have so many knowledgeable individuals scrutinizing records and raising questions, it becomes far too challenging to conceal the truth!

We’ll see if I receive any responses to the inquiries I’ve directed to our Vice President, who is also responsible for our road maintenance, and to our Treasurer.

I believe we should focus on the President next, as they are the ones who ought to be the backbone and representation of our leadership, aren’t they?
