Not that any of it matters, as these forums can attest -- it's pretty clear that HPP can't, or won't, or doesn't want to, manage itself as a professional homeowners' association, whose sole purpose consists of (1) collect money from landowners (2) spend that money improving the roads used by those landowners.
Maybe ask some of the other subdivisions how they manage to do this without drama and lawsuits? I'm most fascinated by Ainaloa, which is somehow able to pave a new road about every year. Hawaiian Acres is even simpler: no dues - no roads - too bad.
There are other subdivisions with drama and lawsuits. But you're right about Ainaloa paving one new road a year. The roads that are about a decade old still look great. Their easements are solid and professional looking. The same contractor does the striping and speed bumps. He could've put in a bid but didn't.
Day Lum made a comment at one of our membership meetings saying with the kind of income we have, we should be able to pave at least one mile a year. That was the intent until a new board came along in 2014/2015 and decided to do several miles of chip seal. There's a lot of maintenance on those chip seal roads now.
The membership voted to send ballots out in Feb 2018 to get full membership vote to research professional management.
