To: RRLE Board of Directors
July 29, 2007
Gentlemen:
(001) It grieves me to be in this position,
that is, compelled to write in protest because of several recent actions by
this park's board of directors.
(002) However, I believe inaction to be the greater evil in this case.
(003) With that said, here are my objections:
(004) (1)
The recent ballot on changes to the Covenants regarding rental units.
(005) It appears the board is attempting
to change the covenants in order to satisfy some board members' personal
agenda.
(006) After all, how many rental
situations do we have in our park?
(007) Why would we limit rental to
children??
(008) What about other family members?
(008) How in the world could this be
enforced?
(010) Why didn't I see any summary of
discussion about this item in the RRLE Review?
(011) (2)
The above ballot was followed up by what I consider to be the most confusing,
misguided, "poll" I've ever seen!
(012) There's an old axiom that says
"If you can't dazzle them with brilliance, baffle them with b--" and
it seems to be appropriate in this case.
(013) Why don't you check your facts
before publishing what should be termed a "chicken little" scenario!
(014) To me, the most valuable question
that could be asked would be: "do you believe we should allow full time
residents in this park?"
(015) Instead we get a boat-load of
useless misinformation with four different questions.
(016) Why do you think the park would
need to revise its PUD status?
(017) Do you realize that a PUD is an 'overlay' of an existing zoning ordinance,
and that this property is NOT ZONED?
(018) That means the Covenants of this
park are the "zoning" ordinances, and they don't need to be changed
concerning year-round living.
(019) Trying to get the township involved
is dangerous and unneeded!
(020) The Board also has a problem with
the definition of year-round living because it refers to RV lots, and every
park model installed on an RV lot in this park violated the RV lot rules!
(021) We don't have RV lots anymore,
because there aren't any RV's on them.
(022) I find it curious that the board
has obsessed on this topic.
(023) It leads me to think that there's something else going on.
(024) The Board's threats concerning
year-round living have actually caused several people to sell and move from the
park.
(020) (3) Finally, there is an apparent character assassination in progress, propagated by the Board of Directors.
(020) Just who in the world do you think
you are, that you can publicly accuse one of our park residents with theft of
park property with no proof?
(020) And YOU claim YOU'RE disrespected?
(020) Most of you will be relinquishing
your rolls as board members this fall.
To that
I say:
GOOD RIDDANCE!
