Speculation of "Special Meeting"
"Special Meeting" Agenda 02/20/2026
The Board Majority held a “Special Meeting” on Friday, February 20, 2026, at 1:00 p.m. when many members would be at work and unable to attend. This meeting was limited to Zoom attendance only, effectively preventing in-person member participation. This timing and format impaired member involvement and had the practical effect of disenfranchising working members from meaningful participation in the decision-making process, with respect to the proposed vote to increase your LCPOA Dues.
The Board abruptly postponed the vote raises serious concerns regarding the Board majority’s transparency, decision-making process, and willingness to allow meaningful member participation.
These actions have left many members with unanswered questions about the true justification for any dues increase and the process being used to impose it.
Notice to Members:
The Board intends to schedule the vote on the dues increase soon!
VOICE YOUR CONCERNS TO LCPOA PROPERTY MANAGEMENT
LCPOA Poor State of Affairs
Dear La Cresta property owners:
The current La Cresta Property Owners Association Board Majority which includes the newly elected board members last Fall are putting our membership at risk once again. Another lawsuit was filed recently against the LCPOA and former director (Richard "Rick" DeAndero) that chose not to run during the last election.
As I mentioned during my campaign for the BOD last Fall, if my two opponents were elected to the board majority there will be more lawsuits and they will raise your dues. Exactly what is happening! As you may of noticed last week a notice was sent out via Powerstone that the board was to meet 2/20/2026 and vote on a dues increase. This increase would be about 20%. This dues increase was only justified by some random numbers being thrown out at the February open session meeting without due diligence and proper accounting and documentation sent to the membership to justify any increase.
Members of the LCPOA, please voice your opinion and send an email to Powerstone and your BOD demanding full documented justification for such an increase. At this time there is no emergency, no major repairs and no justification for such an increase. The LCPOA Concerned La Cresta Property Owners will keep you informed of future developments.
