Lynn;

Could you please correct the Association Website.

1. Newsletters:
• The 2020 Newsletter format has changed. This leads to an incorrect sort order (Apr., Feb, Jan, Mar, instead of Jan., Feb., Mar., Apr. It might be better to use the old format of year-month.
• There is  no explanation of what 776 means in month776.
• The Apr776.pdf newsletter is for Feb., 2020 instead of Apr., 2020
• The Feb776.pdf newsletter is for Dec., 2019 instead of Feb., 2020
• The Mar776.pdf newsletter is for Jan., 2020 instead of Mar., 2020
• The Jan776.pdf newsletter is for Jan., 2020 and need not be changed

   

2. Using a Microsoft document on the web site makes the documents unreadable by users who have not purchased Microsoft software. In some environments, particularly Linux based operating systems, Microsoft software is generally unavailable. It has been the custom until Jan 2020 to use Adobe Acrobat files (.pdf) for uploading on the site. One rationale is that Adobe Acrobat readers are freely available and widely distributed.  This may be a good time to get in the habit of uploading only Adobe Acrobat files.

   

3. There are Jan – Apr Board agendas but only Jan and Feb Board Minutes. When you get a chance maybe you can put the missing minutes on the Association’s Website.

   

4. he naming convention for post Jan 2020 files for Newsletters and Board Minutes and Board Agenda’s are different. Would it be possible to make them consistent. Prior to Jan., 2020 all the postings had the same format. If would be useful to retain consistency in whatever format you choose.

   

5. The naming scheme chosen for newsletter updates maintains an incorrect sort order and if the ‘776’ suffix is maintained, does not allow multi-year newsletters to be uploaded. That is, apr776.pdf 2021 will replace apr776.pdf 2020. One additional comment, using the ‘776’ suffix is inconsistent with identifying the year the newsletter was published.

   

6. The naming scheme chosen for uploading the Board Agenda and Board Minutes does not allow for correct multi-year presentation of data. Using the format of month-day-year means that all months will be sorted so that their entries are adjacent. For example the Board Minutes Feb., 2020 and Feb., 2021 will be sorted so that the 2021 entry immediately follows the 2020 entry. And for the Board Agenda the 4-13-20 entry will follow the 4-8-21 agenda. The system chosen prior to 2020 was year-month which maintains the correct sort order.

Yes I certainly will.  Please allow me some time.  I totally agree there needs to be better organization and it is on my list to do.  It’s been very busy here and I’ve had to attend to a number of items due to COVID19.  As you know, it changes daily and so hard to keep up with.  Nonetheless, the website is important and I will get it better organized.  Thank you for your recommendations and your patience.

Hello Gus;

This email is directed to the Park Paseo Homeowners’ Association Board.

On a 28 Apr 2020 email from Lynn Wyatt it was stated that “… the Board voted at the April meeting to start putting the Architectural Meeting Agendas and Minutes on the website  starting June 1st.”

At the 8 Jun 2020 meeting this was clarified to be the posting of information after the June Architecture Committee meeting. Such posting to commence on 1 Jul 2020.

As of 12:00 AM on 13 Jul 2020 such posting has not been done.

Please post as agreed to.

Keep Well;

Gus;

This document is meant for Park Paseo Homeowners Association Board members use.

It has been pointed out that the general nature of our landscape is deteriorating. This deterioration will continue unabated unless the Board takes direct action to ensure that the Association Common Areas are correctly cared for by the Association’s contracted maintenance company.

This lack of care and its visible consequences was brought to the Board’s attention at their 8 Jun 2020 meeting, and I believe, at their 11 May 2020 meeting. I have waited to inspect the Common Area until today, and do not do so today because of heat.

The issue with diligent landscaping is urban blight. One symptom of blight are just those landscaping things that we have, to wit, dead and dying plants, a proliferation of weeds, lack of bush trimming, and eventually, bare earth that used to have plants and shrubbery. We are at the start of this. As this condition progress, as blight begins to settle, our communities property values will decrease, no one will want to live here.

The change from beauty to blight is gradual, almost unnoticeable. You can’t see it until it’s too late. When it is too late you can’t wave a magic wand and make it disappear. The community will have lost it’s reputation, and even if all the disagreeable landscape issues were repaired, the reputation would still not increase.

It is up to the Board to see that this does not happen. I recommend that the Board constitute itself to walk through and note those areas which should be attended to. And to then either require our existing contracted landscapers to “start doing their jobs” or to solicit bids from their competitors.

The Latest Walkthrough results (about two weeks ago):

The last time I walked through the community I noticed that in addition to previously detailed areas which needed maintenance, that the curbs on Palmatum by the school are ‘handicapped’. The City should be informed that these curbs should be repaired or replaced.

In addition, the grass area by Palmatum has large, not very pretty, weeds.

The Clubhouse still has untrimmed bushes in front of it, and a dead bush lying there for all to see – this is a residual issue from the last two Board meetings.

All results are subject to your inspection. Given the past lackadaisical attitude in attending to these issues, they will be available whenever you care to see them. You don’t need me.

Thank you for this email Mr. Schwarz.  You discussed this email at the meeting last night in Homeowners Forum.  Thank you for attending.  As you know we share landscaping duties with IUSD and the City of Irvine throughout our community.

Hi Lynn;

I have no idea what you just wrote.

You haven’t said that you would relay issues which are not the Association’s responsibility to the parties that are responsible. Curious omission. “Our” responsibility is to see that “our” community is well tended. Part of “our” responsibility is to inform other stakeholders that they should attend to their responsibility. Given your curious email it looks like rather than informing other stakeholder that “our” community is adversely affected, we will just turn our eyes and hope the issue disappears.

But in terms or “our” responsibility it does appear that “our” landscaping needs some adjustment. There are plants which are dead, areas not getting enough water, weeds, lack of trimming, shrubbery extending onto the sidewalk, tree droppings which are not cleared, and other sundry issues presented previously.

The irony is that the lack of foliage trimming and dead bushes are right smack dab in front of the Clubhouse. An eyesore that all can enjoy. And this is an ‘old’ issue.

Anyhow you need not respond. I think that you’ve probably made your point. Good one to.

Lynn;

Please pass this on to the Board for tonight’s meeting.

I would like to know the status of the following items:

1. : Landscapping. As indicated below the Common Area Landscaping is beginning to deteriorate. My recommendation was that the Board or a Board member walk-through the neighborhood to determine if the issues I have seen have been repaired. Has a member of the Board determined what issue there are and what issues remain with respect to landscaping?
2. : Curb Repair. As noted, the curbs on the South end of Palmatum are in need of repair or replacement. Has the city been informed?
3. : CThe Prosa and Clubhouse pool efforts were discussed in the Board Meetings I attended. My understanding is that the current refurbishment efforts are between $150,000 and $200,000 over the reserve budgeted amount. Is this correct?
4. : The July Board Meeting was  held at the Clubhouse patio. This was a good setting and very pleasant, but it was difficult for Board members and myself to hear each other. It would seem better to have internet meetings to allow us to hear each other better, and to allow for a wider audience participation. Is such a plan in the works?
5. : The Park Paseo Association Website is truly a mess.  This has been brought up to the Board each month in which I have attended a meeting from March to July. It remains a mess. Will the Board take control of our website and ensure that it is properly curated?

   The specific issues (this month) are:

   
1. . June Board Agenda is missing.

   

2. . June and July Board Minutes are missing.

   

3. . June and July Architecture Meeting Agenda are missing.

   

4. . All Agenda, Minutes and Newsletter posting from January to the present to not follow a consistent naming convention and the sorted list of entries makes it difficult to find an entry for any given month for any given entry. Previous to January, 2020 it was possible to find documents easily.

   

5. . July Architecture Meeting Minutes is missing.

   

6. . June Architecture Meeting Minutes have been removed.

Of note is that the 30 Apr 2020 email received as a result of my request for Architecture Meeting documents the Association agreed to being publication of Architecture Meeting Minutes and Agenda on a monthly basis. As of this writing this agreement is in forfeit.

I would like to discuss this tonight and come to a resolution as to all outstanding issues.

Thank you;

I sure wish I would have had this last week. It’s really too much to discuss during Homeowner’s Forum (HF) and short notice.  I could have put you on the Agenda, which gives you a little more time than HF. As you know HF is for brief comments/questions and a time limit is set – usually 5 minutes per homeowner.

You see anyone who wishes to discuss something with the Board must get me their written information at least seven days BEFORE the meeting. The Board packets are printed and delivered at that time. That way it’s in the Board packet, they have time to review and be ready to discuss at the meeting.

So for tonight, I’ll print this out and distribute to the Board but they will not be able to address until the next meeting.  Going forward, if you would please get me your questions/concerns a week before the meeting and not hours before the meeting, and I’ll be sure and have it in the Board packet.

Lynn;

Thank you. In particular, thank you for telling me the expected lead-up time to get on the agenda. Is this notification time in any of the Association publications? I have neither seen nor heard of it before.

If past attendance at meetings is any indication of current attendance, then I will be the only non-Board member present. I guess what you are saying is that even though there is no one else wishing to speak to the Board, that the Board time is important enough that only 5 minutes can be allocated. I guess that means that the total time spent in addressing all member concerns  at the Board Meeting is 5 minutes. If there were two non-Board members present, then the total time allocation would be 10 minutes, and so on for more. Interesting.

In any case, there is no need to take up the Board time, a written reply is more than adequate. That way the Board can conserve their 5 minutes to discuss more pressing issues. If a written response is not deemed in the Boards interest, then why doesn’t the Board just answer the questions. In that way we can reduce interaction maximally, that is, I won’t need to spend any time discussing the items, the Board need only answer the questions. No need to waste any time with me needlessly repeating information that the Board already has, spending all of the Boards valuable time in just having the Board answer the few questions put forward to it. How does that sound?

If the Board responds in writing then no Board Meeting time is spent, that is, you don’t need to waste 5 minutes of valuable Board time in discussing member concerns, and if the Board just answers the questions then there is minimal time spent in addressing member concerns. As a boost to productivity, Board answers during this meeting would remove the requirement for another meeting, with me on the Board Agenda, to discuss these questions. My, the Board can now become a smooth running entity wasting no time on unnecessary distractions.

So, I don’t think it needful to put me on a future Board Agenda. The Board has only to answer the questions put forward to it. I don’t even need to be a participant in any discussion, which further conserves Board time.

Thanks

I’m going to have to respond briefly.  The one week requirement to get the Board packet to the Board is not a law but rather a requirement of my company.  As you know, the Board is voluntary position, and we want to respect their time and efforts, so we try to get them all the information they need ahead of time.  We have told homeowners this requirement when they ask, and it’s even been said at meetings.  We’ve never had a problem.

Homeowner’s Forum This is a time where the Board listens and typically does not engage with homeowners.  They usually take all under advisement and will get back to the homeowner(s) via different ways.  And yes, time is precious for all.

Thank you for respecting the Board’s time and efforts.

The online copy of the CC&Rs has 25% of the text obscured on the page of text titles “Amendment of Declaration of Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions”. I don’t believe that the document is legal if it contains hidden text. Could you see that our Association website is changed to contain the legally binding documentation?

My recommendation was that the Board or a Board member walk-through the neighborhood to determine if the issues I have seen have been repaired. Has a member of the Board determined what issue there are and what issues remain with respect to landscaping?

There are monthly landscape inspections with the Foreman of Harvest Landscape.  We make notes and determine actions on those walks.  Additionally, emails are sent throughout the month to the Foreman to address any concerns – ie: irrigation/area missed/etc.  Harvest has been very responsive;

2. : Curb Repair. As noted, the curbs on the South end of Palmatum are in need of repair or replacement. Has the city been informed? Yes, they were reported last month to Public Works.

I will follow up again;

3. : The Prosa and Clubhouse pool efforts were discussed in the Board Meetings I attended. My understanding is that the current refurbishment efforts are between $150,000 and $200,000 over the reserve budgeted amount. Is this correct?

No it is not correct. Total costs for the Prosa Pool were $130,412 which included four addendums to the original contract.  We also purchased new umbrellas and umbrella stands which were purchased at Costco which added about $2800.  The Reserves had a balance for this project that was saved for over the past few years.  I’m not sure where you’re getting your #’s.

4. : The July Board Meeting was  held at the Clubhouse patio. This was a good setting and very pleasant, but it was difficult for Board members and myself to hear each other. It would seem better to have internet meetings to allow us to hear each other better, and to allow for a wider audience participation. Is such a plan in the works?

Right now the Board has chosen to meet on the patio.

5. : The Park Paseo Association Website is truly a mess.  This has been brought up to the Board each month in which I have attended a meeting from March to July. It remains a mess. Will the Board take control of our website and ensure that it is properly curated?  Yes, we’ve discussed this before.

Hi Lynn

Thank you kindly for your email. There were no responses attached to the email or contained in them.

You need not provide any. I am attaching a Acrobat pdf file of things that I’d like to discuss at the 14 Sep 2020 Board Meeting. Would you please make them and Agenda item. As pointed out in our emails and at the 10 Aug 2020 meeting, there wasn’t sufficient time to place them on the Agenda, and the extent of the information makes a discussion of the items more than the allocated 5 minutes. As  you have pointed out, Associa requires a 10-day advance warning to place things on the agenda. Today is about 17 days before the Board Meeting so there should be enough time.

thanks and keep well;

Mr. Schwarz…your email of questions is in the September Board packet for the Board’s review; however, they do not have the time to devote themselves to four pages of questions at the meeting.  The Agenda is full.  As with all homeowners, you will have the usual five minutes during Homeowners Forum and you will have ten minutes when it’s your turn to speak on the Agenda.  The Board will not be responding to your questions at that time.  After that you’re welcome to stay, of course, and observe the remainder of the meeting.

Kindly,

Lynn Wyatt

Thank you Lynn;

It’s most gracious of the Board to fail to answer questions. Striking given that apparently there was an attempt to send answers to the previous questions given at the  August Board meeting during, but at variance with your email specifying that to be heard I would be required to put my questions on the Board Agenda, see your email of 10 Aug 2020 9:34 AM. I have attempted to do so and the Board has elected to ignore your statement.

What are the time limits for Association members whose requests are on the Agenda? Your email of 10 Aug 2020 does not specify a time. Is this time noted in any governing document or other Park Paseo Homeowners Association documentation? Does this document specify detail on what or how much a member is permitted to ask?

Given that the Board can not afford me time for a full response, please send me the contract and all financial information for the Prosa Pool repair and any financial data available for the Clubhouse pool.

I need not belabor that as fiduciaries for the Park Paseo Homeowners Association, the Board is required to follow all California Statutory guidance (California Civil Code 4000 – 5000 plus Corporate and other California statutes) as well as the Park Paseo Homeowners Association governing documents.  I make specific mention of Association Bylaw (VII)(2)(2) which requires that the Association members vote on financial matters in excess of $44,400 over the planned budget. There is a consequence to broaching fiduciary responsibility. In particular, a suit against a Board member may not be covered by the Association D & O insurance, most particularly since it is a misdemeanor in California to compromise ones fiduciary responsibilities.

Thank you very much for your response. Stay well.
