Lawsuit accounced & a couple homeowners demonstrate why the HOA is a problem!

Yes, the Board of Directors are the main problem with our HOA, their illicit and illegal activities that violate both the CC&Rs and ORS covering Planned Communities are countless, and I've recounted many of them within this blog and my HOA Facebook page.

However, the underlining true problem with our HOA is the apathetic & complacent approach many homeowners have whereas this HOA is concerned.

Sitting back quietly and paying your annual dues without review or question of the financials, let alone the actions of the HOA (e.g. resolutions, etc.), is not how it works. You have a responsibility towards not only yourself, but for your fellow homeowners to be informed and take action when and where necessary when the HOA Board of Directors does something implicitly contrary to the CC&Rs and state law (Oregon Planned Community Act).

Another inherent problem is when a homeowner does take action to protect themselves, and by extension every other homeowner against the overreaching and illicit/illegal acts of the HOA Board of Directors, fellow homeowners should be grateful and respectful towards that homeowner for taking their time, money and effort to do so. Even a simple "thank you" would suffice.

However the following reaction to such a homeowner, me, taking action that no other homeowner has, clearly demonstrates how a fellow homeowners is NOT supposed to treat another homeowner who is doing what they fail to do in protecting their own rights as a homeowner in this association:

I posted this morning that a civil lawsuit was coming soon to the courthouse (obviously the one in McMinnville), and this is the thanks I get...

Chuck Watson - "I really hate these types of comments that are so popular on Facebook. How about instead of putting out this stupid comment with no information, you provide us with the facts?? What is the lawsuit? Who is suing? Why? All you are doing is pissing people off with your attention grabbing antics" (sic)

Leslie Meyer - "This is pretty rude to those of us who just move (sic) to Oak Knoll this past November who really have no idea what the hell you are talking about !" (sic)

Lesli Meyer - "...just joined this site. Guess I will take myself off . (sic) Really don't have to deal with jerks like you."

Leslie Meyer - "I have only on (sic) word left to say to You (sic) "ASSHOLE" (sic)

I have been posting on FB and this blog for years providing nothing but information and facts, and yet because someone is too apathetic and complacent to do a little further reading of previous comments or click the link to this blog here, which is listed in the "About Me" section of the HOA Facebook page, I am berated for not catering to their laziness.

And since when is continuing to provide information to the homeowners "rude"? Is it my fault that a new homeowner didn't do their due diligence in researching this community and HOA before buying their home? I mean really, a simple Google search for "Oak Knoll Homeowners Association Newberg" would show this blog as the #1 result, and my facebook page #2 and my YouTube #3.

When I pointed out the simplicity of doing a little reading of the information that is already there, and asking how proving information is considered "rude," I am then called a jerk for pointing out that that was rich coming from the person who just accused me of being rude; she then proceeded to call me an "ASSHOLE."

Real classy adult mature behavior there folks. Way to thank the one person who has made positive changes to how the HOA Board of Directors have illicitly, illegally and ignorantly ran the HOA since day one.

IF and WHEN I move from this neighborhood, not because of the pain in the ass that the HOA has been or the disrespect and ungratefulness that I've been shown by fellow homeowners as illustrated above (among others who have left disrespectful comments on my FB page), but specifically for the financial gain, you all will miss me and my efforts to keep the HOA on the straight and narrow.

Mark my words! You apathetic and complacent homeowners just simply do not understand what they HOA is capable of and how the can get away with it all, making your lives miserable and eventually forcing you to leave/move out like so many other homeowners have in the past to present.
