Records Inspection Requests
It appears the POA is setting up an obstacle course to make the inspection process as cumbersome and difficult as possible.
The HSVPOA REQUEST TO SCHEDULE RECORDS INSPECTION form:
- Item number one (1) notes – inspection will be available to members who have been verified as POA members with a ‘proper purpose’ may be allowed access.
- Also, item number three (3) – “Requests to review the CEOs contract will be evaluated for improper purposes by the HR Department”.
- Item number five (5) – Appointments “will be scheduled for those requests not deemed improper.”
- Item number seven (7) – “Requests that appear to be improper will be submitted to the BOD for a decision to deny the request”. Examples include “suspected malicious uses”.
Didn’t Judge Herzfeld already decide this issue?
Who decides what a proper purpose is or what a suspected malicious use is? I thought the judge had already decided that. From page nine (9) of Judge Herzfeld’s decision:
“The reasons stated by COOPER are not only proper, they are among the most proper reasons possible: examining the expenditures of the corporation of which they are a member and communication with their fellow members.“
Judge Robert Herzfeld
I think that says it all. Under “The purpose of my request is: “put” HOW THE POA IS SPENDING MY MONEY.

Does anyone think that CEO/BOD want to obey actual LAWS that they have not created? People voted No, did they listen? Did not want to deal with CCI, so came the lawsuit. Cooper won in court did they listen? Judge ruled have they listened? Gene is correctly challenging them in court next month, are they listening? (Hopefully he will win) Majority of POA do not want governance committees, or CMP are the BOD listening? Answer is NO to all above! We need change! Respectfully, Minn Daly

Keep squeezing until they cough up the details of Leslie Nalley’s outrageous employment contract–how could they be anything else given the lengths she is taking the POA to conceal it? Then search for what else she and her team are hiding from the public eye. I think there will be some real shockers.

I think that the higher-ups of the POA are going through withdrawal symtoms from suddenly having to face the facts that they are losing control of the situation. I am by no means an attorney but feel that they will only start complying with the judgement(s) when they start feeling the bulges in their wallets getting less and less. Of course they could fill them with their own money but why start now? I try to get along with everybody but the pure arrogance of some make it damn near impossible.

Thirteen days after my request to inspect the CEO past and present contracts, on July 22, I received an answer of approval to make an appointment to inspect. Today I copied the CEO contract for 2019 and 2018. If you want to know previous contracts I assume that they are non-existent. If you want to know the unknown actual pay-out including bonuses and other benefits. I suppose you will have to specifically ask for that.

It’s an absolute shame that they are this corrupt when dealing with our members. Is it possible to go back to the judge and request fines and penalties for non=-compliance?

HSVPOA Request to Schedule Records Inspection form, please read carefully ALL of the 5 acknowledgements you will be signing by submittal of this signed request and the implications of those acknowledgements in aftermath. What and why was this drafted? That obstacle course is more than cumbersome, has a mouse trap too.

THANK YOU MR. COOPER FOR MAKING IT POSSIBLE TO UNDERSTAND HOW OUR MONEY IS BEING SPENT. GOOD LUCK MR. GARNER.
The POA’s lawyers may have over stepped their bounds to try to stop the information from being given to all members. It appears to be circulating like wild fire and people cannot believe what the Board gave to the CEO for salary and the bonus package. Shows Directors are not concerned about how our money is being spent. With this kind of spending attitude, it won’t be long before it’s time to raise the assessments and no money to keep up our home values up. Scary-

The POA is still hiding the truth because they did not produce the past 2016 CEO contract (only the 2018 and 2019 contracts were provided) after 13 days of being in contempt of court. Today is July 31 st and the POA is still in contempt of court for not providing members with complete requested information 22 days after the request was made by myself, a member of the HSVPOA.
