It was announced at a recent board meeting that we have almost $30,000 owed to the HOA in unpaid dues! They never said who the offenders are by name but I was astounded to hear that it is such a large amount.
That is THEFT! As far as I am concerned we all knew what we were getting into by purchasing a condominium.
One person said to me that they refuse to pay because they don't agree with the decisions the board makes?! - Just because I don't agree with all the decisions this Bush Administration makes or that we shouldn't be funding this war -doesn't mean I just stop paying my taxes?!
NOT PAYING = NO VOICE.
you can't vote, you can't be involved so therefor no change.
We have so many smart people in this community, with valid ideas, and a willingness to create change. But because they chose for whatever the reason to not pay they are silenced.
We have others that comment and point the finger, yet are not willing to stick their necks out or put time in to volunteer to be on the board to get the changes we need made that help the entire community.
How can we turn a new leaf and create the change needed so that we can MOVE FORWARD if we don't all CONTRIBUTE?
I realized today that there are a few people in this community that are doing all they can to create more problems for our community. If they could only turn that negative energy around and put all that time into volunteering, into following through with ideas and into paying their dues then we would all be better off.
DON'T SILENCE YOURSELF. PAY YOUR DUES. GET INVOLVED... LETS MAKE REAL CHANGES!!
