Petition: JOHNSON RANCH:

To: Board of Directors Homeowners Association (HOA)

We say “No” to the HOA Board promoting a community center which will deplete cash reserves, place Johnson Ranch in debt, and increase HOA fees by over 20 percent. We demand the Board concentrate on community upgrades that can be handled within existing financial resources.

We demand the Board consider the Florence Unified School District (FUSD) Community Center option. This option includes a “private JR facility” and the real likelihood of a “fitness facility” and “multi-sports field with lights for adults and minor sports”. Outdoor sports and a fitness center were the #1 rated need in the HOA survey, but are not included in the HOA center proposal. (Provision of a multi-sports facility will mean the youth of Johnson Ranch will no longer have to travel to Anthem for safe and playable fields for soccer, baseball, flag football, and softball).

The FUSD proposal will offer amenities and programs unsustainable in a standalone HOA facility, including a commercial kitchen, and will cost less than 1/10th of the cost of the HOA proposal. Examination of this alternative in detail is a requirement of Arizona State Law as it relates to “due diligence” and “Fiduciary responsibilities”.

We further demand the Board ask a clear and direct question regarding the HOA proposal rather than a vague question relating to a “change of land use at Twilight Park”.
