Topics are # one through whatever. And you start.. if 5 is discussed before 2 ...then just change the numbers.

Now!!!!!!!! you can never go wrong with VIDEO, No mistakes there. with the technology we have today. and the prices are so reasonable .The camera on a tripod needs only to be pointed at the board.. IN THIS CASE pb.
The disks are burnt on CD's as copies and each BOD gets one.
Get someone else to do the min's! A college student looking for extra credit!
OK dp your on!; Nov 4, 2008, 6:45:00 AM

Anonymous said...: you know lets mention VIDEO again!
What DUMMY is going to say NO !BECAUSE IT MIGHT CAUSE a LAWSUIT!

We are the people... If we want video then we want video! Do you think we want this!
Video is used in school board meetings town meeting court proceedings.

Lawsuit, yeah right.
Videos are used all the time in meetings.
What do we haveto be ashamed of!

I think I'm going to be sick!
NO vote for DH!; Nov 4, 2008, 8:45:00 AM
Anonymous said...: RE: No to video "because of potential lawsuits?"
Are you kidding me? That sounds like something pb would say. Most all organizations video their meetings these days to "avoid" lawsuits. I think a "potential lawsuit" would more likely arise from altering minutes.; Nov 4, 2008, 9:11:00 AM
Anonymous said...: I think taping the meetings is a great idea.

We can make sure that this is a question to be asked. Anyone running for office ,should not have a problem with it!. That can be on the voting ballot.. Check yes or no (Video monitored meetings).

Please just change something!; Nov 4, 2008, 10:47:00 AM
Anonymous said...: Great picture Joey...also liked the one you had up yesterday.

I think video taping the meetings is a good idea. Maybe with a camera in her face PB won't rant so much....or maybe she would "play" to the camera....who knows. At least that way there would be lasting record of what the GM said...that could prove interesting!; Nov 5, 2008, 9:01:00 AM

Anonymous said...: I want to congratulate our new President of the United States of America

President Barack Obama.

We live in time that is making history, I am a proud American and except him as my president. I look forward to an exciting 4 years, no matter what my party preference.

I am also looking forward to changes with our new board of directors (TO BE ELECTED.) in March.

I thought I voted for change with the current board. This was not the change I expected.

It's unfortunate that the three senior members couldn't stretch their hands across the table to be more helpful.; Nov 6, 2008, 8:04:00 AM
Anonymous said...: Re: I want to congratulate our new President of the United States.....

Can't say I agree with you there! At least after two years it's over!!!

As far as the BOD goes, it is "kinda" hard for the 4 new BODs to do all they have wanted because of senior BODs, lawsuits, recall letters and other things.

What do you (or anyone) think all this turmoil has been about? It was to keep the new member's hands tied so to speak.

As far as the 3 senior BOD members "stretching their hands across the table", it won't happen. These members want total control of the BOD and in the long run the Village.

LIV will only see peace when the current GM is gone. Sad, but true.; Nov 6, 2008, 5:55:00 PM
Anonymous said...: While the action to dismiss the GM was apparent. I do believe the newly elected members acted hastily.
A carefully planned approach should have been in place.
This event was merely people sticking up for a friend.

Just look at who we voted for and won, the voice of the village spoke. We wanted people who would do the work of ridding the GM.

One day the GM will leave. Nothing is forever!
A lot will depend on who gets elected. I have a feeling the GM will be leaving soon.; Nov 6, 2008, 8:58:00 PM
Anonymous said...: Re: while the action to dismiss the GM was apparent.....

The hasty action was precipitated by President Sullivan, the letter to Armark was written by him (even tho it was never mailed) so let's don't blame everything on the 4 new BODs. The 3 "senior" BOD members who will not "reach across the table" and the horrible display started by friends of the GM didn't do one thing to help events come to a peaceful ending.
And no these were not just people sticking up for a friend. I watched CD go around to certain people and fill them in on what was happening. It was a planned demostration/outburst!

Yes, the GM will be gone one day, but will it be too late for LIV?

We need to all realize that what has happened with the SGG, recall, lawsuit, PB's rants is all to help get control (once again) of the BOD.; Nov 6, 2008, 10:17:00 PM

Anonymous said...: It is too sad that the GM supporters feel that they have to make loud comments and catcalls whenever a BOD other that PB, MS, or LM speak at a meeting. They act so childish. They are disrespectful and rude.
I appreciate the new BOD members more now than ever. I am grateful that they have the decorum to try to run LIV as a business, get bids on work that needs to be done, and make the GM accountable.
People have put blind faith in the GM and have let him run the park irresponsibly.
We really need to support the new BOD members and let them know we appreciate what they are doing and all they've gone through.; Nov 19, 2008, 10:24:00 PM
Anonymous said...: liv resident:
I totally agree with you. This is my first meeting since I've returned from the North and I couldn't believe the behavior demonstrated by some of the residents.
It's obvious that the new BOD members want to make the GM accountable and question his actions.
I don't know of a business out there that this doesn't happen everyday.
Any professional Board of Directors question the actions of the people in charge of their company. Isn't that what the GM is, in charge of LIV?
The new BOD has my support it is time for change and it's too bad that some residents don't see the error of their ways and that change can be a good thing.; Nov 20, 2008, 9:40:00 AM
Anonymous said...: I absolutely agree with the above comment. We need to show our support for the new BOD's. They are trying to be professional & run this place like a business. I cannot believe how crude the others are. I'm sure it's a plan to give the illusion of many when there are but few. Notice how they position themselves strategically throughout the room? I believe that PB is the ring leader.

Hang in there MN, EM, RH, & JP. You all have more support then you know.; Nov 20, 2008, 11:23:00 AM
Anonymous said...: I am wondering why I never see Larry and/or Armando driving around the Village every day inspecting everything. You always saw Dave Fletcher and Armando make their rounds every morning, and they knew what lots needed to be cleaned up, fined, whatever. Does Larry and/or Armando still do this? Me thinks no with the questions and comments at the coffee in regards to lots still in disrepair after Dolly and such. Just something to think about.; Nov 20, 2008, 3:59:00 PM

So long to all of you! And that manager too!
I want brand new people, people who have never served before. And I want Mexican people to run also.. Three or four of them. They need a voice,; Nov 23, 2008, 8:58:00 AM

Anonymous said...: Holiday time brings parties, gatherings and PO Boxes full of invitations…BUT WAIT THERE IS MORE! Some of us have received invites to an OH SO SELECT and
OH SO SECEREAT meeting of the SGG. This will take place December 3rd in the Arts & Crafts room.

The purpose is to plan how to disrupt future Coffees, BOD meetings, plus create general unrest in the village. Of course, the term “creating unrest” isn’t used.

While these people want to keep the GM and his wife it goes far deeper. Their dislike for 5 of the board members (President Sullivan is not included in this 5) runs so deep they can’t see anything else.

Yes, come March we will have a new BOD, but nothing will really change as far as the SGG is concerned UNLESS they win majority of board. If the winners do not
agree with the SGG then it will be the same old S#@%T again. You see a precedence has been set. The last litigation basically worked in their favor.

This madness must stop! One or all of the 5 BOD members must make the court aware of this action by the SGG (among other Agreement 11 infractions).The four new BOD’s plus DY are trying to hold the GM accountable for his actions and how
he spends our money. Certainly this can’t be wrong.

And to think all of this hate, spite and division came about just because PB was not appointed BOD president again. How sad.

Anonymous said...: Officially known as the Canadian Forces 431 Air Demonstration Squadron, the Snowbirds are Canada's military aerobatics or air show flight demonstration team.

The term Snowbird is used to describe people from the Northeast, Midwestern United States, or Canadians who spend a large portion of winter in warmer locales such as California, Arizona, Florida, Southern Texas

And so are you educated! I hope this changed your world and you can sleep tonight.

Just another anonymous sick and tired LIV owner.; Nov 30, 2008, 5:07:00 PM
Anonymous said...: Re: "Joey can you educate...."

Come on folks lighten up....Snowbirds is just a general term of speach and Jenny didn't mean any disrespeact by it. Frankly the lower valley/LIV is the first time I had heard the term "Winter Texan".

What does it matter if we are called "Snowbirds or Winter Texans" as long we aren't called late for the cocktail hour!!!

She isn't an owner nor is she qualified to be on the BOD. Time to call the Judge!

Would someone, anyone, PLEASE make the court aware of this...or better yet have the BOD tell her to step down. Folks, her being on the BOD is against out By Laws etc etc etc. Maybe removing her is something the BOD Prez should do...if so there may be a problem.; Nov 30, 2008, 11:05:00 PM

Welcome Villagers

The monitoring of the 2010 Board will continue. There were again some discrepancies from last year and at the start of this year by the Board President. I am happy to say there is positive change with our new management.
This blog more than ever will try to further the transparency of all issues and reveal any half truths. If you are a concerned owner, either past or present, feel free to comment.
If you disagree on an issue, that’s ok, you have the right to voice your opinion. Comments containing vulgar language, racism, invalid promotions, or something that appears to be nothing more than a personal vendetta will not be posted. Please refrain from trivial back and forth bickering for it serves no one.
