California is going through one of the worst droughts in its history, the state is massively short of water. But the city of Glendora, a suburb of L.A., is threatening to fine a homeowner whose lawn is ‘too brown.’ The couple admits they scaled back their lawn watering because of state-wide emergency orders to conserve water.
Michael Korte and Laura Whitney have been given 60 days to green up their lawn. If they don’t they’ll get bashed with fines of up to $500.
Gosh, Homeowners Associations all over California have been threatening homeowners with fines bigger than that for brown lawns. Where’s the leadership?
The Windemere Condo Association in Will County, Illinois is facing a big embezzlement. At last count they were missing about $150,000.
The suspect? The guy now under arrest and facing charges of embezzlement? Oh, he was just the Condo Association’s president.
A Grand Jury says Bob Dorosz has been stealing since January of 2007.
One last thing: The police report on his arrest says his home address is….. homeless.
The Beverly Hills homeowners association where Justin Beiber has a full-time party pad has had it up to its corporate eyebrows with Beiber’s behavior. His parties get out of control, the neighbors are miserable.
But according to TMZ, they’re trying to crack down. The HOA has voted to hire a security company to work during Beiber’s party hours. And they’re going to bill Beiber’s landlord which is the way it should be.
Despite this blogger’s annoyance with the illegal activities of many HOA boards across the country, there’s no reason for people to have to put up with willful illegal activity of a resident. And this HOA is doing what HOAs are supposed to do.
Until Beiber grows up he really should live in a farmhouse way out in the country.
Homeowners in Las Vegas are some of the fortunate few in the country who can monitor the behavior of their HOA boards. But it wouldn’t happen without Darcy Spears, creator of the HOA Hall of Shame report. There’s never a lack of misbehavior among Nevada Homeowners Associations to report on.
The latest is in the Forest Hills Homeowners Association where homeowners have often found their water shut off because of collapsed water pipes. Complain to a board member and they refer you to the management company, H&L Realty, which either refers you back to the board or hangs up on you. If you want that morning shower you have to find a contractor and pay for all the damage yourself. Of course, you have to keep paying those high HOA dues which theoretically are supposed to pay for basic maintenance.
It’s just another in a long, long list of reasons to discard the current HOA system.
But apparently, she doesn’t have much upstairs to brag about. Once again she and her cohorts in the State Legislature have passed what appears to be an illegal law and have gotten Governor Blondie to sign it.
The last time she did this, the law was thrown out by the state courts as being unconstitutional. The Arizona Constitution clearly states that the title of a law must reflect the content of the bill.
But once again, Blondie and the Bimbo have taken a hodgepodge of ‘stuff’ and jammed it into an intentionally misleading title. Now we learn that another lawsuit has been filed against this crowd.
Yes, she’s still cute.
But do the people of Arizona ever get embarrassed by the idiots they keep electing?
