Memo Dated: December 28, 2009From: Board of Directors... "Once we receive the final approval of the By-laws from Arbor [Commercial] Mortgage [L.L.C.] each member/owner will be informed, and the changes will be printed in bold for your By-Laws Handbook."======================================Thirty (30) days have past and the Board of Directors of Harper Square have not full filled their promise. Are we required to abide by the amendments if they a not been published or approved by Arbor? |

The minutes of the December 9, 2009 Board meeting were given to me as proof that the Board properly executed changes to the By-Laws. I have read those minutes several times they contain only a reference to conditional approval pending approval by "...legal review and Fannie May". [note: there is a Fannie Mae, which may be where Arbor sourced the funds to loan us. But no details from minutes.] Obvious question: When were these minutes approved by the Board, How did we get a memo from the Board on December 28, 2009 on the By-Laws if there were no Board meeting, were all the steps to changing the By-Laws completed before January 1, 2010. Also, why have the "published" By-laws not been distributed to member/owners? I obtain a pre-copy from the management office. |

Talk about togethernes where is it when you have a mother that can not move in the building because her income is not that of 26,400. She is a senior citizen however she is not allowed to move in under any form of subsidy. I feel it is discrimination and actually some form of action should be taken to make the board and management understand they don't own Harper Square. They all have sarcastic attitudes and are totally besides themselves. Imsure if they had a love one that they wanted to live near them they will find a way to move that person in. I have living here for 15 years at the particular time democratic way to handle business was just and fair. Now its just a whole lot of hit and hide your hand. I think the by-laws needed to be amended to meet the needs of senior citizens. Better yet discrimiantion complaint should be filed. |

The rules/traditions have been bent for the few: dogs in the towers, restrictions on what members can NOW run for the Board, management agents posting ads on our bulletin boards for other properties, etc.To Member: The Board of Directors cannot reject an applicant because of their sources of income. When I served on the Board for two terms in the late 1990's we had member(s) who used Section 8. File a compliant with the Fair Housing Agency if you believe their was discrimination involved in membership denial... Directors could be personally liable.How many retiree do you think are on that Board that borrowed money and that are not likely to be around 29 more years to help pay it back! |
