"My name is Cynthia Lee and I have resided at the Harbour Vista for 10 years. I have served on the HOA Board of Directors from 2006-2012 as a Secretary, where my duties included preparing meeting minutes and taking notes. I possess an Associate of  Arts Degree in Liberal Studies and I'm employed as an Operational Support Technician. I feel our community needs to return to our governing documents in order to keep a smooth running HOA that's environmentally friendly and compliant. I will be a loyal and approachable Board member who will proudly represent all residents. I will attend all Board meetings and ensure all residents' concerns are addressed. I believe I will act in good faith to make sure the decisions I make are in the best interest of the Association. It is my desire to work with fellow residents in a positive manner so that we all live in a pleasant and safe environment." |

"My name is Mike Mengel and I have resided in Harbour Vista since 1993. I have served multiple turns on the HOA Board of Directors; as secretary, member-at-large, and three terms as president. When I first got on the board, the Harbour Vista reserves were at about $14,000 and the association was barely able to keep the lights on. Our board at the time worked to get the association back on sound financial footing and got caught up on many years of neglected maintenance.  We also managed to survive the real estate recession of the mid 1990's and again in the mid 2000's when many homeowners were walking away from their units. We accomplished this by working with homeowners, a pro-active management company and a positive attitude." |

"My name is Mary Williams. I have been a resident for 12 years. I served on the board in 2005 to 2012 during which time the board worked to keep Harbour Vista HOA from going into bankruptcy due to the nationwide economic downturn and the large number of  vacancies in the complex. I am employed by a specialty contractor in the private sector. I am on the Board of Directors and responsible for all the accounting, payroll, taxes etc., including a portion of the purchasing and handling all the contracts issued and received. The board needs to be responsible to everyone and make decisions based on what is best for the entire community. We all have a financial interest in keeping Harbour Vista a well run association and any decision that I would make as board member would be based on that ideal." |

Candidate Statement form 2014 Election:
I believe that the fiscal responsibility demonstrated by our current Board has placed  our association on a much more sustainable footing. One of my goals as a member of the Board, would be to continue to build ourreserves (replacement funds) while maintaining the proper functioning and attractive appearance of our community.
Will not Raise Dues
I would aim to keep association dues at their present level and avoid any extra assesments by encouraging more homeowners on both sides of Green Street to participate in some measure in the various volunteer programs. From stuffing mailing envelopes to painting the parking lot, volunteering results in considerable savings in expenditure and also nurtures a healthy atmosphere of community involvement.I would continue working with homeowners who have delinquent association dues to find creative ways to achieve resolutions.
Land Lease Trust
In addition, as a member of the Board, I would continue to nurture the renewed level of trust with our land lease holder to secure the future of our community. |
