I agree that James Weatherford has blinded himself to a significant number of missteps by the old management and board. The new board has also made some serious mistakes, but he only chooses to focus on those. What makes it even more ironic is that I looked it up, and he is not officially an HPP property owner. Only his wife, a former board member, is, but we don't hear from her. I actually liked some of her statements on road issues, and her opinion and votes did not appear to be locked in to a faction.
A balanced look at this whole tawdry drama will show that both board factions in this conflict do not seem to be capable of competently running such an organization. I have spoken with lots of neighbors and others in HPP, and none of them want the fired employees back on the job or being awarded a settlement. None of them have much confidence in the new board, either, although some of them seem to think they deserve a chance to redeem themselves.
My own opinion remains that the current system doesn't work in HPP and that court-imposed professional management is the only solution. Administrative receivership without financial default would be my choice for immediate relief, and I don't know what the legal provisions fot that might require. In the long run, however, an appointed, independent board might be the best solution since receivership is only temporary.
All of this I'm posting is mostly just opinion, and the real outcome will likely be determined by one or more courts. Sad.
