The February
24th HOA Board meeting was attended only by 50 people, including 16
PCM employees and Advisory Committee members who made reports to the Board.
After
making my comments to the Board, I was encouraged by some residents to share them
with the community at large, as a way to continue to raise the community awareness
of the activities taking place in our community. My comments to the HOA Board were
made as follows:
“I will begin by reminding
the Board and the community at large that in January 2013, the HOA Board
adopted a “Code of Ethics and Rules of Conduct for Sun City Shadow Hills Board
Members, Officers, and Committee Members”, for the purpose of setting a standard
and a tone for behavior that is in the best interest of the community.
All Board members, as well as
Association Committee members sign and agree to abide by this code of ethics,
with the understanding that violation of the Code may result in the removal of
a Committee member, removal from office of an officer or convening a recall
procedure for a Director.
The Code of Ethics and Rules,
specifically requires, that No member shall engage in any writing, publishing, or speech that defames any other member of
the Board, or a resident of the
community.” And that “Personal
attacks against residents are prohibited and will not be tolerated.”
Last December, The HOA Board
approved the formation of a new Committee, “the Information Advisory
Committee”, composed by five members: Georgeana Mimms, Andy Perler, Charles
Hemphill, Richard Smeby and Mary Lee Niethold. The Committee’s goals and
purpose were not made clear as the Board approved the Committee under the
consent calendar, at the December 16th meeting.
As of today, none of their
activities have resulted in any public notice or publication, BUT what has been
apparent and noticed by our community was the creation of an anonymous website,
whose obvious purpose has been to influence the outcome of the HOA Board
elections by fully supporting 3 of the 6 candidates and conducting a series of
personal attacks with the intention of defaming the other 3 targeted
candidates, who have been promoting change and stand against the status quo.
Who is the brain surgeon who came up with the statement "the community has no documentation on payroll and payroll fees. Brilliant, I guess they forgot about The State of california labor laws just to mention one small issue with that statement.
This remindsds me of this groups statement "Assoica, PCM's parent company owns Billy Casper Golf". You remember that flow charts and all.
Boy was Billy Casper Supprised to learn they had been purchased, LOL. That's what I mean by garbage in garbage out. Flat out, a lie.
If you would like a refreshing look at some real facts about our community not the typical negativity that is out ther now. Then visit:
I don'tt know where it came from or who is running it. but from what I have read it is an objective site and everything on it is actually factually correct. I am impressed.
The anonymous website has
been promoted in public as “objective
and factually correct”, by the writings of the Board President in the
Association’s website and his spouse’s through direct emails to residents. The
action by the Board President, taking an active role in the outcome of the
election by encouraging residents to visit the anonymous website and supporting
the website’s personal attacks and demeaning behavior, place the Board’s
President in jeopardy of loosing his post, based on the possible violation of
the Association’s Code of Ethics and Rules of Conduct for Board Members”, and together
with the creation of the anonymous website puts into question the election process.”
