HOA Micro-Managing or Quid Pro Quo?


HOA Micro-Managing or Quid Pro Quo?

June 24, 2007

When Governor Schwarzenegger signed legislation to bring direct elections to Homeowner’s Associations such as the CZ Master Association, the president of the board called this legislation an act of “micro-management”, and proceeded to ignore the spirit and the law.

A recent call to the office of Senator Sheila Kuehl by a member of the HOAATM group inquiring about the reasoning behind the Senator’s support of Senate Bill 127, the person attending the phones charafterized the Senator’s stakeholders as “property management companies and HOA board of directors”, NOT HOA residents.

An update sent to members of the HOAATM group today, June 22, 2007 follows:

SB528 Senator Aansted's stupid bill, has been re-re-re-referred to committee (basically a dodge ball technique until they are able to fly under OUR radar...we've got this one on the run big time)
SB948 Senator Harman's stupid bill, remains on "inactive status" voluntarily put there by Harman (couldn't stand the heat and didn't have the nerve to do the decent thing and pull it... -- I wanted him to come out and be answerable for his actions!)
AB1574 Assemblyman Houston's lethal bill (KEEP AN EYE OUT FOR THIS, its just waiting in the wings for us to be diverted, then it will fly right past us if we are not careful)
AB980 Assemblyman Calderon's REALLY lethal bill (KEEP AN EYE OUT FOR
THIS, its just waiting in the wings for us to be diverted, then it will fly right past us if we are not careful)
So, is all this legislation necessary? Is it a necessary evil? Is it Micro-management, or is it Quid Pro Quo?
