Section 5: OPA Board Subject: A Legal Conundrum? Msg# 1022934

In the past we have come close to that with suggestions for helping those who cannot afford their assessments,
Do you recall the motion made by a board member some years back to establish a committee that would meet with families to resolve marital issues? You gotta love this place. I find it quite unbelievable that Jim Trummel would suggest the GM should consider things like the physical ability of individual homeowners or the financial status of individual homeowners in determining any drainage policy related to DR enforcement. Even if the GM was 100% correct and every ditch in OPA was somehow the responsibility of individual lot owners, ANY policy should be based on uniform DR enforcement regardless of physical ability or income. Heck, if the physical ability of the lot owner should be a consideration in DR enforcement, then I am unable to cut my grass and keep my property maintained and OPA should take care of it perhaps. |

For reference, the above message is a reply to a message where: After the annual meeting, several comments have been made to the effect that the GM is "stupid" to be considering the impact on owners who may have resource or physical condition limitations that may inhibit their ability to comply with potential owner drainage responsibilities. No, the GM would properly be subject to criticism if he did not foresee such potential issues should owners be subject to drainage responsibilities not now in effect. I am one that called the "concept" stupid. That is OPA drifting into the Social Services arena. In the past we have come close to that with suggestions for helping those who cannot afford their assessments, the recently defeated motion to raise assessments to help children of low income parents. We live in an HOA and the rules should apply equally to all. Income or physical limitations should be addressed outside the HOA by charitable or personal assistance. If drainage becomes mired in decisions of who to assist what about CPI violations or assessments? This is not a path OPA should go down. |
As it stands, I now pay someone to cut grass in front of my property, grass that OPA is responsible for and that I already pay OPA to cut.
