ALERT




HACIENDA REAL HOMEOWNERS ASSOCIATION




September 16, 2008

Dear Homeowners:

Your fellow homeowners in the HOA would like to advise everyone that there has been, and continues to be, ongoing occurrences of criminal vandalism in Hacienda Real. This criminal activity is occurring particularly at Unit 18 on the corner of Mercer Lane and 29th Drive. The vandal is defacing private property as well as damaging plants.

The plants were put there for the sake of improving property values. We are asking for everyone’s cooperation in identifying who this criminal is. A police report has been made. The homeowner has every intention of prosecuting the individual/individuals once they are identified. A reward is offered for information leading to the prosecution of the vandal.

The vandalism seems to occur in broad daylight when the homeowners are not present, and again, is currently isolated to the area at the corner of 29th Drive and Mercer Lane. We ask that all of you be alert and keep an eye on our community property and immediately report any suspicious behavior to me at 602-978-4720. Thank you.


Sincerely,

Your neighbor

Tenets of HOA Board Members

Right here at Hacienda Real, where Jehovahs Witnesses like to run the HOA the way their church is run:


1. Erase Individuality – Create Conformity: The First Duty is to ensure that all traces of individuality are erased from the community. Conformity is the creed. Everyone must look alike, think alike, landscape alike, and be alike. Call the lawyers, they’ll advise you as to the exact shades & tones of every house, rooftop & flower in your community.

2. Build a Community of Terror: Ensuring every member of the community feels terrorized ensures submission & subjugation. This is important to ensure conformity. Use the Lawyer.

3. Forced Alienation: If any thinking member comes forward with any questions, or ideas, put their name on the list for daily inspections. Study their habits. If you determine they arrive home every evening at 6pm, then pass a new rule requiring the garbage bins to be brought in by 5pm. This will give you the excuse you need to send them violation notices at least once per week. Then send a copy to the lawyer every time, and instruct the lawyer to send them letters too.

4. Subjugation: If any member dares to question your decisions, especially at meetings or in front of other members, shut them down immediately. Tell them you don’t recognize their right to speak, and tell the group that they are trouble-makers and gadflys that cause disharmony in the community. Then call the lawyer, or pay the lawyer to come to the next meeting. They will listen to the lawyer because everyone believes that the lawyer is the final authority.

5. Provide No Information: Simply make your decisions & implement them. If anyone questions it, see Rule # 4. Then call the lawyer have the lawyer send letters to those questioning it to silence them.

6. Provide No Accounting: Send out a newsletter notifying everyone that their dues are going up and tell them only that “expenses are rising”. If they complain as a group blame it on the one you labeled a gadfly and explain to them how that member is forcing you to call the lawyer every month.

7. Disregard All Laws: You are a private community and you are above the law. There is no oversight, no checks and balances, and you do not have to adhere to anything. If anyone one or group of people show up to the meeting spouting the laws, have them removed, and call the lawyer.

8. Recognize Financial Limits: Pay the lawyer first every month. Make sure to put away 20% of all money collected into the reserve fund. We’ll teach you how to make this money disappear during private consultation with the lawyer. Then use some of what’s left to maintain the community. If funds fall short that month skip the area in and around the gadfly’s house.

9. Capitalize on Opportunity: If you hear that one of the resident’s has fallen ill or has an extended stay in the hospital. Take that opportunity to send him past due notices. It doesn’t matter if he’s already paid, he has to prove it. Make sure to send copies to the lawyer, so they can send him letters too and collect their fees for doing it.

10. Rule with an iron fist: Your rules are your rules. If you start bending them in any way for any kind of special circumstance you are opening the door for chaos. Remember, there can be no “special circumstance” in a truly successful conformed community. If everyone is the same, then there are no special circumstances or reasonable arguments. Even if the entire community bans together to disagree with you and threatens to vote you out, don’t worry and don’t give in. Just make sure the votes are counted in private, and then give them the tally that you won again. Your perpetual service, will ensure that the conformity and subjugation you’ve created will be maintained. Remember to send copies of the tally to the lawyer.

The final rule of thumb: When in doubt, call the lawyer.

Another piece of garbage from the HOA Board

Hacienda Real HOA Board is guilty of littering. They keep putting pieces of paper on my patio. Stop it already, litterbugs. I don't want your garbage. Save a tree, ferchrissakes! Oh, yeah, how could I forget - you all hate trees, don't you?

At least you could act like professionally and use the US Postal Service if you intend people to actually read your crap.

Anyway, this latest communique rants about vandalism. I guess what goes around comes around. It has been well-documented that the Hacienda Real Board has committed acts of vandalism towards certain targeted homeowners for years, and now it appears they are getting vandalized in return. Karma can be a bitch, can't it?

These notices claim someone is removing the cheesy plastic towing signs that have been put up recently here and there around the community. The notice states the signs were put up for safety reasons. BULLSHIT! They were only put up to harass certain, but not all, homeowners who have friends who park on the HOA's street, in the assigned parking spaces, near their homes. Three of the seven signs put up throughout the HOA are located within very close proximity (10 yards or less) to my house. More selective harassment by that idiotic HOA board.

In reality the Board ought to reward this rare and exemplary attempt to beautify our community! Wouldn't it be wonderful if the HOA Board would do something positive for the homeowners for a change, instead of harassing them? There are still dead trees that can be disposed of, so please, go occupy yourselves with something worthwhile for a change.

Latest conversation with Don Abbott

Yesterday evening as I was walking my dog, who should drive up but my gayboor, Don Abbott. Not really wanting to waste any time talking to this idiot, I started walking towards my house.

DON:"Have you seen who is removing the new "no parking" signs we have put up?"
ME:"No Don, the only thing I've seen is the nasty email you put in my mailbox."
DON:"I didn't put anything in your mailbox, you old bitch. If you were nicer, people would like you. Just get the hell out of our HOA!" (Oh,yeah, nice like you, Don?)
ME::"Just now you said exactly what you wrote on the email, the same phrases."
DON:"Well, you are an old bitch and you write nasty things on your blog."
ME: "Bite me, Don. Last I heard was we have certain freedoms in this country, one them being the ability to express oneself legally. Unlike you, I don't feel the need to break laws and harass people by stuffing nasty notes in people's mailboxes. And I don't need to drive up in a van and yell profanities through the window at people either."

(Hello - Don! I'm a good 20 years younger than you, so what does that make you, my great auntie?) Does the truth hurt, Don?

How's this: Wake up Don. You are a needy, mysogynistic, old homosexual and you are being used by Dale Maus to accomplish things around the HOA for him. Have you seen how they mock you? I have. Have you seen the hatred and listened to that nasty Dorothy Maus and what she really thinks about you? She never tried to hide it at the HOA board meetings.
You are just a tool, fool, and you are just being used. Quit drinking their koolaid. If you weren't so needy you would realize that these are not nice people and they do not have best interest of the community in mind when they manipulate people. They are corrupt, incompetent, nasty people. They have so pathetically little going on in their tiny little insignificant lives that they take pleasure in trying to control people living in this little bitty 28 house HOA. Too bad if the truth hurts.
Now, stay the hell away from my house. I have witnesses that have seen you snooping around, and looking in my windows. Have you been taking snooping lessons from Barbara Hoggan? Do I need to get an order of protection?
You all really need to get a life. Why don't you all do something useful and set up a neighborhood watch group, perhaps integrate with some of the neighborhood outside of Hacienda Real? Mercy Salaz (salas98@aol.com) is now in charge of the Cholla Neighborhood Association, and I'm sure she could use your help. God only knows she is nicer and doing much more for the neighborhood and the community than the idiots running Hacienda Real HOA ever will.
