Green Valley Ranch Citizens Confront Corrupt HOA Board
On July 22, 2009 approximately 300 members of the Green Valley Ranch community showed up in force to oppose a special assessment being levied against them by their HOA Board. They also took that time to demand the resignation of long-time president T.J. Stone and all his cronies.
The HOA Board banned everyone, including members of the community and journalists, from covering the meeting. One community member however refused and took this footage clandestinely.
Stone has recently been convicted of four counts of felony theft and has also controlled neighborhood politics for far too long, using HOA funds indiscriminately on frivolous lawsuits and community programs that garner little public support.
HOA fees have more than tripled in the past couple years, each raise being met with public outrage. The new “Special Assessment” of $174 ended up being the proverbial straw that broke the camel’s back. There is now a massive grassroots effort for homeowners to simply refuse to pay the assessment and any future assessments until the Board resigns and new elections are held.
