Just the sheer number of lots and miles of road mean there is a fair amount of money involved, but the HPPOA Board is legally mandated to one thing and one thing only: make sure the road fees are used to maintain the roads properly. The fact that this board, who have one simple job, is so dysfunctional, is a little mind boggling. There are volunteer boards who far wider mandates and much larger budgets that function legally, with a minimum of infighting, and manage to hire and keep competent people to carry out their mandate.
I do not know why HPP has such a history of dysfunctional boards that continues board after board, but it is not because HPP has a "very high value proposition." The HPPOA board is not the developer of the subdivision and has no more or less money to work with if the subdivision is fully developed or not. It may be that like dysfunctional families, the dysfunction gets passed down from board to board and no one knows how to do it right.
