Petition to Postpone Short-Term Rental Changes Until July Meeting.

I want to retain the right to rent our vacation property.

I believe that the HOA board has gone too far this time. They (or some of them) seem to be trying to smuggle their agenda into our laws, avoiding “due process” and bypassing homeowners who disagree with that agenda. This is an example of how a Kangaroo Court operates. My husband, Curt Porritt, purchased our property at Strawberry Lakeview Estates with the express intent of sharing the joy and beauty of the place with as many as possible. This vision not only included friends and family, but also over-night renters. Unfortunately, he passed away of a sudden heart-attack a year ago, while doing what he loved best; fishing at Strawberry. He was unable to see his dream fulfilled for very long. Not only would we like to continue this legacy in his honor, but having over-night renters is the only way that we can continue to afford to do so. Homeowners have rights that HOAs should both acknowledge and protect. This requires mutual respect from both parties. This includes consistency, honesty and transparency on both the parts of the Homeowners and the Homeowners Association. We, at Strawberry Lakeview Estates, are no exception to this.

This just seems ridiculously and intentionally sneaky on the board’s part. They are so obviously disregarding the cabin owners’ opinions that it’s just offensive. What is the point of an HOA if it isn’t to do what the people within it actually want? We need to talk about this at the meeting IN PERSON (because clearly, the board won’t communicate honestly through mail or email) that way we can gather all the information from both sides, then make educated decisions from there. It isn’t fair at all for the HOA to sneakily trick us owners into their own agendas.

I find it disturbing that the board is making changes that were not in the lawers overview! You are asking for a blowup at the meeting

The board should have the decently to present the proposed changes before the owners of cabins and lots during the annual meeting. Instead they have tried to pull a sneaky and have a vote before the people were properly informed. What the board has done is not in the best interest of all owners. I think they should all be booted because of the poor lack of leadership in behalf of the people.

I would like to discuss some of these issues at the next HOA meeting to get the feelings on these matters from the other property owners!

We in full support of reserving out right to rent our cabin. Also let’s get on the board.

We would never have purchased our lot if nightly rentals weren’t allowed. Other people likely won’t purchase in a development that doesn’t allow rentals. By prohitibiting nightly rentals, you are in fact decreasing the value of our property.

Nightly rentals increase property values.

We are in total agreement! Thank you for doing this!
