There
are
many stories inside Huntington Village over the years,
and they all rotate around
one repeating, chronic problem. We have a MANDATORY homeowners association that
lives a double life. On the surface, the Association Board smiles and acts like
all neighbors are friends. But there is another side where people who question
the activities of the Board have been bullied and intimidated, often without the
knowledge of the Board members who are honest and truly work to make Huntington Village
a better place. Many former residents have packed up and moved rather than
put up with continuing hassles and experiences with the Board, a very special lawyer,
and a billing & records management company who claims to
"just follow the instructions and orders of the board", yet on paper
this firm is the official
"custodian" of our association's books and records, including the
Deed Restrictions and Bylaws. We have
discovered what would appear to be bogus
liens, bullying tactics, and much more. This site
will document only a portion of the unpublished and unseen
"activities" that really go
on, since the association records are not freely accessible to most
residents and stay hidden from the membership by
claiming attorney-client privilege.

There are many things that need repairing here and there needs to be a way for
residents to get and exchange information. We have open court cases that the
Board hides from the community and they need to be settled. They could all be
settled in one day. Stop giving our
money away to a collection lawyer. It is time to end the secrecy, to
stop the bullying and make
Huntington Village
a better place to live. The primary short term goal of this website is to bring all
of the inappropriate
activities that are happening into the light of day and exterminate them (There are many). When the
association takes action against any of you, whether it is a warning letter or
threat of a lawsuit, the association's dirty work is done
in secret and without the knowledge of the general community. The Board
has recently decided that our books and records are no longer freely
available for viewing to residents (in
direct violation of our
recorded deed restrictions). This simply
means that no one knows what dealings are ongoing, but a select few. Everyone
keeps on smiling. You are pretty much alone against a Board of Uncaring
directors and their Lawyer using your own money against you. No
wonder people bail out. It's time for a positive
change.
In the long term, Huntington Village Online could be a great marketing tool for us all. We could have (to name just a few) available online:
There are only a few residents contributing to this site (on a part-time basis) with the goal of identifying and correcting the problems we face. That same effort and more could easily be put into something much more productive and valuable to the community, once we repair the problems. We are willing to work with the Board to use this website for extremely positive and creative uses.
Please take the time and look over Huntington Village Online. There are many documents here with more to come, from court cases to financial information to minutes of board meetings. Much of it is agreeably not pleasant or pretty, and that is precisely why we need to get it out in the open, change things and put an end to the secrecy and bullying. If you remain silent and do not speak up, your booming silence will give implicit approval to the status quo and some very questionable and un-neighborly activities.
When the problems are corrected, we can remove the information about the bullying tactics as we will have repaired that problem, too.
A NOTE ABOUT THIS SITE :
The
documents here are from association records and public information from
the Harris County Courthouse. Some Board
members will not like nor appreciate the exposure of the bullying tactics, and hopefully the
ones who were not aware they were going on will work to help make sure things change.
The message here is not anti-Board. It's about removing the root causes of the
conflict that has been ongoing for many years and has created
unnecessary divisions within our community. The Board's lawyer will not like having the heavy handed
tactics exposed. Too
bad. It's our neighborhood.
Please take a moment after you have looked over this site and email your ideas and concerns. Let's repair the problems and move ahead.
