HPP Board 2014 - Nhb - 08-25-2014
Attention all owners in HPP.
Your new Board has met in covert meetings twice in the last 6 days, once on Tuesday, 8/20, in the library, and then on Sunday, 8/24, in the office. No public notification, so that interested owners could attend, and they again didn’t invite all the Directors. This is not only against the Bylaws, it is against the law for nonprofit organizations. Where is the transparency that they promised? They are conducting Association business that must be handled with the owners notified and present.
Where are all the watchdogs that promised you that they would look out for illegal actions like this? Bill Newman stood up at the July Board meeting and stated, “This Board’s feet will be held to the fire”. Has anyone heard from him since then? Where are those who consistently criticized previous Boards: Sandra, Leilani, Frank, Mayelin, Skip, Ken? Oh that’s right, Mayelin and Ken were at Sunday’s meeting, so they must approve of these actions.
When Leilani was running for the State House opening, her website said that she is a watchdog for HPP. Where has Leilani been? Has anyone noticed that, over the last 2 years, she would stand up at every meeting and speak against the Board or GM? And, during the last 2 meetings, she didn’t speak to this Board, even though she is aware of what is going on.
How about Rosanne MacLean’s post on the HPP web site that has now been removed? She stated that, according to the Bylaws, owners are only “permitted” to speak at the Membership meetings and not at Board meetings, which is not correct. The Bylaws do not make a provision for owner input at Board meetings – but they do not forbid it. Her statement can be taken as a threat that, if you don’t walk in lock step with the Board, they will cut out one of the only chances for an owner to talk to the Board as a whole.
Let’s not forget the lawsuit against the Association and certain Directors from the terminated employees. There will be an update at the Special Membership meeting on September 7th regarding this litigation. Ask the Board if they have contacted the insurance underwriter. Ask them if they have even read the commercial liability policy and if they know what is required of the Association when they are in receipt of a legal complaint for litigation.
I urge all concerned owners to attend the September 7th Special Membership meeting, which was called by concerned members, at 6 pm at the Hui, to voice your opinions on what the Board have done to this Association in such a short time.
They can’t shut you up at this meeting - it is your turn to speak, not theirs.

If it is ****, good for her. She has seemed like one of the only coherent ones in this group.
A question asked was who is the Board's legal representation? I had not heard any names. So who is representing these yahoo's?
It is curious that Leilani has become suddenly silent. Watchdog? I don't think so.

If you have any evidence that they spent association money at these meetings contact the District Attorney's office

Orchidlandguy, I take this as an attempt to out a member's identity. I don't know if it is accurate or not but you are on vacation for a week or so. Think about it.
Assume the best and ask questions.

Being an HPP outsider, it's a wonder why that association isn't able to operate better, although some of the problem is due to being such a huge disconnected development. So many of these associations have so many problems, it makes one appreciate belonging to an association that can be surprisingly progressive, operating with funds surpluses that keep increasing, and generally very pleasant neighbors that have their own business and don't need to mind the business of others. There is a lot to be said for CC&R. It keeps out people that don't like them. It provides for convenient amenities, very inexpensive water rates and clean neighborhoods in the development that shall not be named.
BTW, I heard that Fred Blas got Kahakai paved all the way to his house because that roadwork money was slotted for HPP initially and HPP turned it down as inadequate, demanding it be increased for side roads, not just main roads. Hearsay anecdote, but just saying...

That is a completely bogus story with no basis in fact. Kahakai is a county road, all of the HPP roads are private and the county has refused to take them on unless they are first upgraded.
Fred did fail to work with HPP and the county on the park issue, in part so he could divert the funds to the new park/ball fields in Pahoa which was what he really wanted.

Carol is spot on with that correction.
PT,
Agreed about the sad state of affairs of so many community associations.
It would be good to know the association you are talking about that works well. Perhaps the rest could learn something from them.

WOW!
Did you see Sunday's meeting notice in todays paper?
Page 4 at the bottom.
Looks like the owners have had enough with these new board officials just doing what ever they want without following the Bylaws.
If you think health care is expensive now, wait until you see what it cost when it’s free...now here come the taxes.....

"as required by law", with the punchline that many "private" roads can NEVER meet the required standards because their easement (or grant) is too small.
Keepin' the country country!

The subdivision was approved by the county. So it should be grandfathered from changes to the right of way width since then.
