As for the Attorney General's office, they don't answer email or snail mail pertaining to this mess. I've sent both to them with no response. I guess they were too busy unsuccessfully prosecuting Kenoi.
At this point the best solution would be to abolish the hui, let the bondholders put liens on all the lots, and have each little section of owners hire someone competent to maintain the roads. I would gladly pay off my portion of the debt to lift the lien and be free of this eternal bickering money pit.
Bondholders can put a lien on the lots? Says who? Me thinks not and if the local AG does not answer then the Honolulu office will.
I rather stop paying the fees and let the HOA try to put a lien on my lots that can hardly be found under the overgrowth at this point, after I religiously pay them fees to maintain our roads!
I am in total agreement that this story with the GM, the lawsuits, Ms Maynard,the board, weeds breaking new laid chip seal, the bylaws, all the while fees are up and we have to hack our way out of our lots is WAY AND BEYOND PATHETIC. Let me tell you, bylaws will never ensure that we will have rational management of the park with a board of volunteers, it has not worked and it will not work, ever.
Frankly I don't think that at this time we need another group of volunteers messing with our bylaws. Right now this association has defaulted on the only reason for their existence:building and maintaining our roads. I could not give a rat's behind about all the mumbo jumbo bylaw bs,pompous twit meetings, and stupid GM, we want our roads maintained with the money we give them each year and if they don't fulfill this, there is no more need to waste time in bs committees and bylaw rewrites.
If they don't deliver on the promise of paved and maintained roads, and they keep taking our money, then it is a swindle...plain and simple. Could not care less about "the monies are depleted" sing along,if the Board cannot pave all roads and maintain them, they cannot continue to extract our money for something they will not do.
The management of a large subdivision like ours with millions of dollars in revenue should be in the hands of professional third party, who would have to account for everything they do to a Board whose exclusive task would be to follow the bylaws and nothing else. This association cannot be self managed by a group of ever changing volunteers! This mess has been going on since time inmemoriam and to put it mildly the time to change all this bizarre state of affairs was yesterday. The meaning of insanity is expecting different results while perpetuating the same old tired routine.
