[caveat emptor]

Someone just called me to add to the speculative comment I just made in my last post to mention that the office employee with the initials BH, got up to address the members at the Associations meeting in Oct. She said that she supported the forensic analysis but started by basically (if you listened carefully) arguing against it. She said it would cost at least $100K but then argued that the analysis should go back to 2007 because she wanted the road bond years covered. I guess she wanted to make sure the cost would achieve her $100K goal.

We only need the forensic analysis to cover the last 3 years since that covers most of the reign of Chairman Jo when all of the obstruction of the finance committee and corruption of the board started. BTW, did I mention that the Chairman and BH are BFFs? Yes, its true. One of the Chairman’s corrupt moves was to illegally put BH onto the, at the time, illegal finance committee that operated in the dark holding secret meetings with the general manager to produce the illegal budget for fiscal year 2016-2017. That is the GM’s own personal budget (just like this years) that took most road maintenance funding away from park roads and put it into his and the Chairman’s pet project… chip seal.

Here is the actual wording that the member made at the Oct. members meeting for the forensic analysis, “I move that the HPPOA Membership authorize the Board of Directors to hire a forensic accountant for the purpose of conducting a forensic analysis on any and all Association finances.”

I emphasize “authorize” because that is straight from the bylaws in Art. VIII. The members are demanding it because not only is it smart business practice but also no one trusts the office staff, especially the GM, hence the motion at the same meeting to advice the board that we do not have any confidence in him. Terminate him! But no, there are some on the board who would prefer to obstruct and lie to the membership and sadly, with the help of the office staff.

The Facebook thread for HPP also tells us that some of the previous obstructionists on the board namely Jerry Sodan, have inside information that the office staff are trying an intimidation tactic against the 2 board directors who are trying to carry out the votes of the membership. According to Sodan the staff are going “to file a lawsuit against the board”. There is the stench of Chairman Jo all over this.

Sodan ends his FB screed by stating, "I hate to say it, but Go For It" in reference to the office staff filing a lawsuit. Finally, something that I can agree to with one of the Chairman's minions. Yes, file a suit, spend your money. Put your money where your mouth is and expect a huge donation from Sodan.
