Last summer I made a request, through the Pool Committee, of which I am a member, requesting handicap parking in the CCHOA spaces immediately in front of the pool entry. The request had been appropriately submitted by Toni Guckert to Denise Nordstrom as deemed representative of the CCHOA Management Company. The request was made based on my personal needs and other members of the CCHOA who may have a need for easy, accessible parking by the pool.

Denise's response back to Toni was to the effect there were sufficient handicapped spaces to meet regulations or laws, and additional space wouldn't be added near the pool entrance. The request was addressed again via the Pool Committee. There has been no action by the CCHOA management.

Yesterday when I went to the pool about 4:00 p.m. there weren't close parking spaces. All were used - presumably by healthy, active people. I went to visit Denise personally to tell her there needed to be a space for easy access to the pool; that I had trouble walking distances to get to the pool, or any long distance. Denise's comments: ''She didn't know I'd requested it''. I told her I knew Toni Guckert, via the Pool Committee, had requested this and Denise's response had been, in essence, ''the law didn't require it''. Was Denise lying she didn't know about ANY request; or was Denise implying she didn't know I had personnally requested it? I told Denise yesterday that ''I expect'' an appropriate handicapped space by the pool entrance. Denise's response to me: ''Expect all you want, but I'll give it to the Board.''

One of you may have a need for easy, accessible parking at the pool at some point in the future.

The reason I tell this story is not to create issues, but to point out, again, the complete lack of responsiveness to human needs and CCHOA members' needs by the CCHOA management representatives and the Board. Members' requests and appropriate management responses are ignored. Inability and/or unwillingness to perform appropriate duties for the betterment of this CCHOA organization and its members is evident in every action, and non-action, of the CCHOA management and Board.

These people should be removed from office and management if they are unable and/or unwilling to perform the job! I regret having been unable to attend the members' called CCHOA Town Hall meeting this past Wednesday evening; I would have been quite vocal about the lack of responsiveness, lack of appropriate and ethical actions by the CCHOA management and BOD.

Respect

Pam,

I'm very sorry your needs have not been met by our HOA BOD, and Denise Nordstrom. Anyone that needs handicap parking should have it, and we all deserve common professional courtesy. Denise Nordstrom has been rude to many of us in the past.

The problem with our ''management company'' is simple.

Full Circle Management is not a professional, experienced, real, management company. Denise Nordstrom, is the total work force. Denise is Steve Bartlett's past employee, so she does what he tells her.

Steve Bartlett gave her and Susan Hoover the ''management company'' contract. The one year old business, Full Circle Management, pays his company an undisclosed amount for the commercial space that is owned by the CCHOA, but leased to Bartlett. Bartlett gave his own company a 10 year lease, for the commercial space, for less than what we (CCHOA) pays in costs (taxes and utilities).

Someday, when the new expanded board gets voted in, I hope one of the first things on the agenda, will be to find a ''real'' management company to run our HOA properly. There are plenty of real management companies out there, that will be happy to supply a sealed bid for managing Circle C. And, they'll do a fantastic job for us.

Shame on you Denise Nordstrom, for not treating Pam Voss with the respect she deserves.

Have a great weekend Pam,
Sal

Full Circle works them, not us

Once we have a new board in place, we need to explain to Full Circle Management that they work for US, not the board. They are the being paid with our money and they answer to the members, not just the board.

This too, will change.
