I agree with this guy...

The Information Is Not Forthcoming

I have asked the Village Woods Owner's Association, in writing, for the addresses of owners who do not live in the complex. This was two months ago. The information is not forthcoming.

The reason I need these addresses is to run for the Owner's Association Board. The reason the information is not forthcoming is...

Other People's Children

OK people, say what you want about other people's children. Sometimes they're noisy, often they're misbehaved and sometimes it's even the parent's fault. But, unless the child is being abused, you have no right to speak harshly to them or their parents.
This happened to me on Friday. Twice. One was an adult who yelled at children in Borders and another was a woman yelling at a mother at Stu Segal's Studio Diner. Both adults were in the wrong, one of them got a serious dressing-down by me and the other deserved one but my girlfriend sat nearly on me in the restaurant to keep me in my seat.
First the a-hole in Borders:

Attn: Village Woods Board and Management

It is seriously going to suck when I come to to the board.  Even though you're holding out on information that is legally mine, I will win and you will be made to follow rules that actually make sense, keep people happy and do away with conflicts of interest.

Get ready to have your minds blown!

Death at 3276-A

The owner of the condo next to mine died unexpectedly on Sunday, April 3.  I overheard the roommate speaking to the coroner on Monday.  It sounded like they wanted him out and the condo sealed, ostensibly so they could investigate.

The deceased owner's friends came by on Monday saying that the roommate was back in the condo but just being quiet and now, on Tuesday, April 5, there is activity there.  The friends of the deceased indicated that the owner died of a drug overdose or complications from a long addiction to drugs.

These are the drugs that have been dealt out of this condo for going on eight years.  I very much hope this death puts an end to drug dealing at this address but, if it doesn't, I will work tirelessly with the Association, the management company and the authorities to see that it does.

The Village Woods Fun Party does not condone the use of drugs that kill or the sale of same.  How fun is it do die?  How fun is it to ruin the lives of others and anger the neighbors?  How many people are left to clean up the mess after such a death.  Decidedly un fun.

Underwhelmed

I was at the March Village Woods Owners' Association board meeting and was thoroughly underwhelmed by the care they take in addressing concerns in the community forum portion of the meeting.

The biggest problem I had was lack of leadership.  The meeting was not called to order, no one was introduced or even acknowledged and answers to questions were treated with a combination of arrogance and utter lack of understanding of the problem in the first place.

Then they went about levying fines and calling for hearings.  Finally they excused the community members and went into Executive Session where God knows what was discussed.

When I am elected to this board, things will change!

1. People will be encouraged to attend meetings and get involved.
2. Everyone will be made welcome.
3. Their problems and concerns will be given equal weight
4. Robert's Rules of Order will be observed (they work or they wouldn't have been in use for over 200 years).
5. People will not be called into hearings before the board. Instead, they will be asked to share their thoughts and ideas on problems.
6. There will be a safety committee tasked with being the liaison between the complex and the community policing office in Linda Vista.
7. There will be no real or perceived conflicts of interest i.e. board members will receive no special benefit for volunteering other than the knowledge that they are making Village Woods a model community.

So there!

Excperts from a letter to Jim Fraker

Thank you, Jim.

Of course I will want to communicate with the electorate so I will need names and addresses of all owners living at Village Woods and elsewhere.  Please let me know what I need to do to make this happen.

I, of course, am still most interested in the use of the bulletin boards in the complex and am eager to read your response to that.  I have quite a campaign planned.

One last thing: you make a remark just about every time I see or hear from you to the effect that: "I don't mean to be flippant but drugs and murder aren't against the rules; they're a police matter."  I would just like to say that drug use is expressly against the rules:
"F. ILLEGAL ACTS (Article 2.3)
1. Alcohol Abuse, Firearms, & Illegal Drugs: Commission of
any illegal act in the common area is not to be permitted and
will be cause for suspension of all privileges of the
perpetrator, his/her family, and guests. All City, County,
State and Federal laws always will be enforced, including but
not limited to the following:...

c. Illegal drugs and other materials harmful to life and
property will not be possessed by anyone."

 

This is out of the rules handbook.  I will again ask for your assistance with prosecuting people who sell drugs in the complex. 

Thank you!
