Tomorrow, Jan. 25, 2015, from 4 to 6 pm will be the Town H all style forum at the Clubhouse regarding MRTA (Marketable Record Title Act ) coupled with information about Revitalization and the two pending lawsuits. Specific discussion on the why, what and where do we go from here regarding the lawsuits will be presented WITHOUT biases. This is NOT a "their side/our side" presentation.
We are very pleased that signs have been posted on most entry doors in the community buildings announcing a Revitalization meeting on Monday after Koffee klatch. However, who is the sponsor? Who will lead the meeting? Will residents have a chance to ask questions?
We find it hard to believe that this meeting was NOT announced at the Board meeting on January 21, 2015. Nor has it been put out on a phonevite or on the official website. As this is a vital meeting impacting on your property rights, then it seems that this meeting is informal and does not meet the requirements of Florida State Statute.

The Phonevite came in around 9:40am about the Information Committee Chat on Monday Feb 2, 2015 at 11:30am after KK. Attachment DeletedThis is not a meeting requiring statutory notice. This is a Chat invitation from the Organizing Committee. If there is a quorum of directors present, then it will violate Open Meeting Law but I doubt the lawyers will permit the BOD to violate statutory law in so obvious a fashion. BOD must be aware that the phonevite system is "voluntary" and does not constitute notice. A couple flyers were found posted on the property. The meeting will be recorded as the phonevite said that lawyers will be present to answer questions; however, it is only an informal chat and the Board cannot be held responsible unless it is later found that owners were misled by lawyers. The lawyers are acting as agents for the BOD and the BOD is ultimately accountable. Finally-"someone" has recognized the BOD's fiduciary duty to provide vital information concerning property rights in an environment of expired covenants to the owners". Unfortunately, without Board sponsorship and participation, it is NOT "official business". But, it's better than nothing. I repeat what I have been saying from the start: This community is being operated by the Management Company's lawyers--not by your elected board. BOD continues to distance themselves from the critical business of the community and directs their committee to do the heavy lifting, using the lawyers to lend credibility. It's pathetic and no good will come from it.

Cross Post from Board Progress of Lawsuit and Interrogatories Lra posted: I am still assimilating this disorganized circus event of a meeting, starting with the Ringleader and Public Relations Barker Master of Ceremonies, Mik Lanoose. And then the Parade of Power to the Podium--FOUR FREAKING ATTORNEYS! Now comes the obviously-planned interruption of the business meeting to sell public relations advertisements i.e. tee shirts and stickers with Attachment Deleted "I Heart SLR" etc.. During sticker/tee shirt sales, we paid for about an hour of billable attorney time--that's 15 minutes for sales time FOUR attorneys! And not a Board Director Officer in sight--one on a cruise and the rest just absent for the most critically important piece of business ever in the history of S-bag! Dbag was the only director present. (He apparently hadn't scheduled a golf or poker game.) Wow! How much do ya think that Dog 'n Pony Show Cost?? The meeting ended with leery listerine's embarassingly coy question "Can I hand out more "I Heart SLR" stickers for free?" Wait for it....<<WILD THUNDEROUS CLAPPING!>> Leaving, I filed through the line to pick up my very own "I Heart SLR" sticker; it was offered and I accepted it. The lady recognized me and said something like "Oh NOooo..YOU can't have one" and then lunged at my sticker. Instinctively, I recoiled at her aggression and anger and she continued to repeatedly grab the sticker from me. I hung onto it and she had her hands all over my hands and lower arms trying to take her sticker away from me. I finally won the sticker wrestling contest, smoothed out my wrinkled and torn up "I Heart SLR" and said to her "Don't you ever put your hands on me, Woman!" She did not acknowledge me and I moved closer and said in a much louder voice "I SAID DON'T YOU EVER PUT YOUR HANDS ON ME AGAIN-WOMAN!" (Someone later told me it was a woman (not a lady) named "Shirley".) There were about a dozen people in line and many more standing around, so there were plenty of onlookers to this tussle. (Curiously, this was the second physical struggle for paper I have experienced in the last two months--the first was Director Alc Nttr attempting to take back the Deficiency Report I wrote at the Records Inspection!) Went home and had a glass of wine... Much more to think about and post, including the complete audio and perhaps some audio snippets of lies and deceptions.

Here is the audio from the "Chat". Two parts: The meeting was scheduled for 11:30am but actually started around 11:10am and Mik Lanoose "went through" the paperwork (mostly reading it). This the the first one (24 minutes). (You will not be downloading the file; rather, taken to a link.) Revitalization Chat Pre-MeetingHere is the Main Meeting-about 1 1/2 hours Revtalization Chat Main Meeting

What ever happen to The Revitalization Committee and the BODs in SLR. Why is this matter being Pigeon Holed ?
Is this also privileged information Mr. President?

GTO, I think the Revitalization Committee members may have disbanded due to eating too much Crow. I do not think they have the knowledge to get this Revite done the correct way. They seem to be reluctant to seek help from people informed about HOAs & the Revitalization process.
Just maybe, SLR may turn out to be a For-Profit Organization, now that we have Polk County's Support. Anything maybe on the Horizon for SLR.

The Organizing Committee is just doing what the Board tells it to do and the Board is following the lead of the Attorney, (unless it is letting chips fall). It was the ATTORNEY that made the mistake on the Ballot/Consent form. Because it was such a monster mistake, SLohA's agreement to redo the form was written as a specific provision of the mediation. It should be the Attorney that pays for repackaging and remailing all the revite kits and corrected Consent Forms. Let's call them what they are; another apparent dual "ballot" that does not give a choice to Vote NO and refuse to consent i.e. all choices were not offered to an informed membership who were unaware they were "consenting" to revitalized use restrictions on their land by signing the form even if they voted NO to Revitalization. It was a Gotcha CONSENT form and is a valid consent even without either vote selected!
My attorney advised NOT to sign the green sheet. Without his advice, I might have voted YES to revitalization in concept and not signed the Consenting Signature section. By doing so, my form would have been thrown away as an invalid (unsigned) "vote". Thus, the only possible valid ballots were YES and Consent or NO and Consent. There was no Option to Vote NO/No Consent or YES/No Consent.
Simply stated, if you did not want to be revitalized and voted NO, you were also consenting to being encumbered by an approved revitalization by signing the Ballot form. The correct instruction would be "If you do not want to be revitalized, if approved, throw the green sheet away."
I hope the Committee does a better job next time around of informing Owners about the significance of signing the form. I hope Owners' are paying attention to what is happening to their private property rights in S-bag and don't sign anything without extreme caution and due diligence. And I hope someone will make a records request to inspect the next batch of Consent forms submitted by Owners. "Trust"...but verify."

Sorry my Bad... So it is Our BOD's & its Attorneys who are giving the Committee bad advise. My mistake Committee Members. I do not have any faith in our Leaders and their Lawyers. Their Track Record is a Joke...

What is the latest advice from the Attorneys, are they assisting the Revitalization Committee? I have not heard any information from our Board about Revite. Last Springs attempt was one big mess.
Does our Community have new advisers, to help our trusted leaders in this matter?
