Message from Raven Hills Homeowners Association - Raven Hills Special Meeting - [#XN1611607]

 To all Raven Hills Homeowners, 

Attached is a letter regarding a special board meeting next Tuesday at the Diversified offices. The Board is looking to appoint three homeowners to fill open positions. Please read the attachment and let us know if you have any questions. Thank you!

Sincerely,

Diversified Association Management on behalf of Raven Hills Homeowners Association


ATTACHMENT: Board Members Needed!

Dear Homeowner,

The Raven Hills Homeowners Association is in need of volunteers to serve on the Board of Directors! We are looking for dedicated homeowners who are interested in helping implement rules, oversee association finances, make decisions that help the community and much more. There are three open positions that will be appointed to serve out the terms of previous board members.

Though serving sounds time consuming and requires years of experience, please know that is not the case. The current Board meets quarterly, and the meetings are 1-2 hours; business in between meetings is handled via email. Also, Diversified Association Management is there to do all the heavy lifting. They will guide the Board through projects, finances, and all other association business.

Why does the Association need a Board of Directors?

If there are no Board of Directors, this creates significant risks to the Association on multiple levels. For example, only the Board is authorized to execute contracts and approve payments to contractors. Without a Board of Directors, the management company cannot renew contracts with companies that provide trash service, common area landscaping services, snow removal, and management services; those services would discontinue.

Though the management company serves as an agent of the Association, the manager does not have authority to make decisions or take action on behalf of the Association without direction from the Board.

As you can see, we are in need of volunteers to serve on the Board, but as stated above, serving is not as time-consuming and as daunting as it sounds.

If you are interested in becoming a Board member, please attend a special meeting next Tuesday May 9th, at 6:30pm at the Diversified Offices, located at 4325 N. Nevada Ave. Suite 100, Colorado Springs, CO. 80905. If you cannot make the meeting, contact Mike Atencio at 719-314-4527 or  Michaela@diversifiedprop.com.

We appreciate your time and look forward to hearing from you.

Sincerely,

Raven Hills Board of Directors

FACT CHECK: The Appeal of the Raven Hills HOA @ City Council

Kris Anderson presented to City Council on Tuesday, April 11th an appeal requesting City Council reverse the decision of the city's Planning Commission and deny the permit issued for 50 Mikado Dr. E. Ms. Anderson spoke as a Board member and identified herself to be representing the Raven Hills Homeowners Association.  Those asking City Council to deny the appeal in support of the conditional use permit believe there were numerous false statements made in Ms. Anderson's presentations of information, both to the Planning Commission and to City Council, and now to the Members of the Raven Hills HOA. For the purpose of advocating for a discussion based on facts, a selection of Ms. Anderson's falsehoods and misrepresentations are addressed and dismantled, supported by citations, as detailed below. Statements by Ms. Anderson are quoted directly from her comments and presentation, which was recorded on video, to City Council:  1. Ms. Anderson has represented both to City Council (...

Stolen Election: The abuse of proxy ballots to manipulate the Board and Annual Assessment Amounts of the Raven Hills Homeowners Association

Raven Hills Homeowners:  Your ballots were abused and manipulated last fall by existing Board members. These Board members acted in an attempt to manipulate the Board election and to double your annual assessments.  Did you want the Board to use your proxy at last October's Annual Meeting to vote to DOUBLE your annual dues to $240? They say you consented to this when you gave them your proxy.  Did you want the Board to leverage your proxy to take executive action and steal the election from everyone in attendance at the Annual Meeting? They say you should have known that was a risk when you gave your proxy to them.  The Annual Raven Hills Homeowners Association meeting took place on October 25, 2022. Those of you who attended the 2022 Annual Meeting got a very clear look at how dysfunctional, uninformed, and disengaged our Board of Directors have become. Homeowners were asked to approve a budget that reflected inflated fees to be paid to Diversified for services rel...
