Sanity Does Not Prevail

Dave Hightower — Fri, 07 Jan 2011 03:26:57 +0000

…unfortunately. It would seem the board is not interested in our opinions. I am referring to the last board meeting, where the board essentially said it doesn’t matter that almost 80% of responding residents did not want the district to take on covenant enforcement…they are going to try to do it anyhow. They have hired a covenant [...]

Cherokee Metropolitan District Recall Results

Dave Hightower — Wed, 08 Dec 2010 18:07:36 +0000

Earlier I posted about a recall effort going on in Cherokee Metropolitan District; this is of interest to us as it concerned Robert Lovato, one of the new members of our district’s board of directors. The election was held yesterday; according to the El Paso County Elections page, the unofficial results are: 1613 Total number of votes cast 1325 To [...]

Covenant Survey Results

Dave Hightower — Wed, 08 Dec 2010 17:36:11 +0000

If you recall, the district sent out a survey to those residents in filings 1-10, asking residents whether they wanted “covenants funded by fee and enforced by separate agency”. Oddly enough, the ‘residents’ of filing 7 (the commercial entities) did not get this survey…even though they pay into the district’s coffers. Well, the results are in (click [...]

Filing 11 HOA Meeting, 27 October 2010

Dave Hightower — Sat, 30 Oct 2010 06:40:15 +0000

I attended the Filing 11 HOA meeting on Wednesday, 27 October. The agenda covered items such as the 2011 Assessments, 2011 Budget, and the effort to update and modify the Filing 11 covenant documents. One of the interesting topics discussed was the metropolitan district’s misappropriation of water/wastewater and parks/recreation funds for covenant enforcement in other filings. [...]

Maybe Not

Dave Hightower — Thu, 02 Sep 2010 04:19:50 +0000

Well, it was too good to hope for, it seems. Some of you may have received the following letter from the district; ironic that some of us didn’t. I wonder why not? So, the good news: They acknowledge and confirm that they are no longer funding covenant enforcement. However, read on in the document…They then state Your Board of [...]

Sanity Prevails…I hope

Dave Hightower — Sun, 22 Aug 2010 00:18:24 +0000

Those of you that were in attendance at the District Board Meeting this last Thursday learned that the board decided to cease funding of covenant enforcement. I’m told they did it on the advice of their new legal counsel..which speaks volumes about the quality of legal advice of our previous legal counsel (The Lawyer®). Hey, don’t feel [...]
