Webmaster Reply to Naysayers

Well I received a couple letters and comments from a couple naysayers 

OK OK We finally have grass after 8 months of dirt   Yay 
Nice if we had matching tree's   


BUT We Have Grass


I would like to address the things that they mentioned, 
One that No one reads the blog! and the 

Second is that I have single handedly ruined the reputation of Anasazi ???

So here goes, if no one is reading ?  How come we have over 3500 readers a month??
As far as me ruining the reputation here at Anasazi ??

Anasazi Board has ruined the reputation of Anasazi, I have lived here 9 years and the residents that have been here for that length or longer will tell you!!

We had green grass year round, trimmed tree's. pools heated year round, Financials available etc

What has ruined the reputation of Anasazi was a NON RESIDENT BOARD that allowed AAM Management to turn ANASAZI FROM A RESORT COMMUNITY  TO AN APARTMENT COMPLEX.

Elected Board members that moved out after being elected ?

The thing that hurts these naysayers the worst is the few that do not like my blog ..CANT STOP IT!  But yet they continue to read ??

Lets recap the last year here in a nutshell

The main gripe here is the lack of residents getting simple things done here, We SHOULD expect to have grass year round!!  not just cater to winter visitors, We should have trimmed trees, We have mud walkways, pools that are broken !  We have 2 pools out of service of the five, And only 2 Heated for all the Winter residents ??


We no longer have heated pools year round, We pay exuberant costs for low grade cleaning of buildings


We used to have pool furniture that was always pained and matched, now they are all peeling and the new chairs are mix matched, We are replacing grass with stones removing tree's The lights have never been cleaned in hallways in 14 months(Full of Bugs), We had flowers  etc etc

THESE MAY SEEM LIKE SMALL DETAILS BUT MARIANNE and Crew PAYED ATTENTION TO DETAIL


We have a Board President that has Never lived here

We have 2 of 5 Board members selling real estate here


3 Board members DO NOT LIVE HERE


IF We had Resident Board members ..They would walk the property and point out to Wayne the concerns of the community.NOT DRIVE HERE once a month for meetings


So if you think my blog deters people from buying here  ..Lets look at above reasons just for a start


What about all the residents walking with coolers this week and floats to far ends of the complex..Just to swim...The rumble on this issue is just beginning...Legally all pools should be heated equally..We all pay HOA AND SHOULD HAVE SAME AMENITIES

Winter visitors not near pool 5 or 2  ??  you will need to pack for a journey to swim...too the residents of building 5 ,16 ,2 who enjoy the proximity of your pool. SORRY   You will be using pool 5 this winter

Full time residents understand and the winter visitors will also get a taste soon of how this property has fallen

THIS BLOG AND MY CRUSADE AGAINST THE CONFLICT ...AND RESIDENT COMMENTS HERE WILL CONTINUE....PERIOD..Funny nobody ever sends a compliment ABOUT  Property or Board here?? IT WOULD GET PUBLISHED, I hope to in the near future be able to write a smoother Blog, BUT till some issues are resolved we will continue to ask for these problems to be solved

NOW I have gone back to adding things to do, places, shows etc with activities for the winter,Golf Course Guide.

I look forward to the days when that is basically what I publish,,and mostly compliments again..

But first the complaints from residents need to be addressed..If a little give on both sides, It could result in better relations and more work being done

AND YES THEY ARE READING...EVEN THE NAYSAYERS !  THE STATS DON'T LIE

Thank you to the over 3500 that read here every month and sorry to the FEW that say they don't 

BUT DO  !!!!

       POOL 5 THIS WINTER??  SEE BELOW  LOL

Board of Directors Care to Respond ??

Anonymous has left a new comment on your post "Resident Says..........": 

Mr. Webmaster. Speaking of Board Meetings!

I see that the Budget Meeting is rescheduled for Tuesday Oct 30th at 5:00pm???????????

I cannot attend and about 40 other people I know cannot attend because we are working! 

Why can't all HOA, Budget and Board Meetings be scheduled for 7:30pm so all can attend.

I am sure the Board knows they can limit the negative feedback from those that do show up at 5:00pm but it is not right to exclude all those who would attend a 7:30 meeting instead of a 5:00 meeting.

You just want to use 4 letter words to describe all members of this board and their lack of getting the whole community involved in all issues that affect all of us. "*******" 

***************************************************
Webmaster Comment
It is just less people for them to Bamboozle on where are money is?

The Board has still not answered or replied to my email..ASKING


WHERE IS THE $16,000 BUDGETED IN 2012 FOR TREE TRIMMING??


TREES' HAVE NOT BEEN TOUCHED


WE ARE HAVING A NEW BUDGET MEETING IN 2 WEEKS


ANYONE CURIOUS ON WHERE THE MONEY GOES HERE AS OF LATE???


ALSO    Have not got a reply from Janet on Roes new Hours??


Told you not to hold your breath...Another Board Lie...??

Resident Says..........

Anonymous has left a new comment on your post "Resident Thank You To Janet Frintner": 

Mr. Webmaster and fellow residents of Anasazi.

Thank you for the open forum of making comments that will not be Policed, Censored or Edited before you post them!

WAYNE! It is time for you to show up at the next meeting with your Engineering Degree in hand and justify why you should be the Community Manager and not the Maintenance Manager.

WAYNE! Words mean something, promises you make should be kept and your work ethic should be more than less.

Words you speak are not true, the promises you make to the residents are never kept and your work ethic is questionable at best!

You are judged on the above and so far you get a "F" grade on all of the above for the 18 months you have been here. Will you please ask AAM to transfer you to another AAM property. Anasazi deserves better! 

***************************************************************************
WEBMASTER COMMENT

I have to add my 2 cents here, 2 Board meetings ago Wayne promised to fix some of the muddy walkways including behind building 5, He said we had granite and the budget...

2 weeks later he stopped me to say they were going to be starting in a few days...This was 5 weeks ago, When I called Wayne out at Board meeting He tried to get Huffy with me...TO NO AVAIL...


Cmon Wayne you no I back down from no one and you were wrong and did not keep your word.  Toughness is not a good solution... especially when the person you are trying to be tough with is tougher than you lol...Lets go WAYNE    Enough of the bullcrap    Start keeping your word and the residents might rally around you ????   Stop The Bulls**t  !

Resident Reactions

Anonymous has left a new comment on your post "BOARD MEETING RESULTS ???": 

Great re-cap Mr. Webmaster.

We now have a President of the Board not living here or visiting here all year and not aware of anything going on here at Anasazi.

We now have a Treasurer also not living here at all but controlling our money. Doesn't this scare anyone? Why wasn't a vote taken to elect a Treasurer? 

No words can describe how inept and useless Faye is?

Izzy needs to resign completely and make room for a Anasazi full time resident to take his place.
The board will never allow it, need more old cronie yes people to protect their conflict of interests!

Last meeting we had a NON-RESIDENT telling us about plumbing issues and creating lists. This meeting we get another NON-RESIDENT telling us he is creating a policed, censored site for all residents to go to make open comments and to communicate with the board, Wayne and AAM. (RIGHT)

You cannot get a HONEST response from Wayne or the board when you ask them something face to face. With new site they can lie to you via E-Mail or say they never saw the comment or question.

WE ALREADY HAVE A SITE TO GO TO:
ANASAZILIVING.COM and IT IS NOT POLICED OR CENSORED! 

Beach Wear Board supporters are Canadians here 3 weeks out of the year who have no clue what goes on here the other 49 weeks out of the year. Their only concern is what pool is heated...nothing else.
The Wolf is Fleecing the Flock. 

Lots of useful idiots on the property!

WE STILL DO NOT KNOW WHY ROSMAR WAS LET GO AND WHY AAM SHOWED UP! 
************************************************************************
Anonymous Said

If you are referring to the folks who came dressed as Tarzan and Jane?

Just another example of those who visit and do not reside here, These part time folks need to sit back and listen to the Residents that are here year round before they compliment "This Board"  You should not not need to explain Webmaster ........They made Fools of themselves...Evident they had no clue what is going on here..Let them walk !

Frustrations High at Anasazi

Hi Mr S, don't know if you've heard the latest, but yesterday, a leaf blower was doing his job of blowing stuff around by Unit 13 and 
A resident apparently came out with a gun and threatened him.  Police was called and to my understanding there were a bunch of officers here yesterday.  I'm getting this from a resident who saw all the commotion yesterday.   Just an FYI


J, Bldg 13

Everyone knows how kickbacks work! The owners here at Anasazi just choose to put their heads in the sand and continue to let it happen right in front of our eyes.

Question: Who is afraid and why are the board members afraid to fire Wayne and AAM LLC?

Answer: Wayne and the board all work for the same employer AAM LLC not the homeowners. AAM pays better than current Board Members salaries.

Just saw the Agenda for Thursday's HOA Meeting????? 


Nothing about firing AAM LLC and AAM LLC'S legal problems.

 Nothing about auditing the books

Nothing about Birchmore being removed for missing 5 meetings in a row, going on 6.

Get ready. TV Evangelist Brian Mcbride is ready to fleece the flock on Thursday. 


More empty do nothing statements coming from Brian and more empty promises coming from Wayne.

How about a Police report reporting all the arrests and illegal activities going on on this property!

Thank You Residents

Dear Webmaster, 
I have read this mornings post and others about your involvement with the miss organization,I think you should be proud of the work you do, I have a dear friend that has lost a child and when asking her about your organization,
 I was surprised to find she was aware of it also.

This letter is not involving Anasazi, but wanted to say thank you. But in a side note with your business skill and community involvement I find it hard to believe that some people do not feel you are qualified to run on board here,

Whether you decide to run or not will be your decision.I do believe you may have more support than most think,and your qualifications should not be questioned in any way. I among many others here think we need a real resident with real ideas,In closing I just wanted to thank you for the parents you help
.Do not be discouraged by a few bad apples living here.Your work is from the heart and appreciated by all Mrs P
************************************************************************************
I will second the comments made by Mrs. P and add that you will bring all that caring and passion about people and community with you as you fill a position on the board here at Anasazi. 

The "ONLY" people who are against you are the few that have to protect their Conflict of Interests doing business on our property. 

Thank you for all your caring for others and our community. You are a "GOOD" person, born leader and a person who will put community first not the special interests on this property. IE: Realtors, Rental Agents, Insurance Salesman, Leasing Agents, Short Term renting Absentee Owners using this property as their piggy bank. 

You should be appointed to fill Burchmores position immediately until elections can be held in Feb. Who is this Burchmore person anyway? 

Is he ever here for anything? I cannot remember ever seeing him at any HOA meeting
****************************************************************************************************
This whole property has MAJOR ISSUES. 

Have you looked at the Waterfall at Pool #2? Big holes in it and it has not worked for the last 18 months!

 
How would you like overlooking pool #2 with that eye sore waterfall thinking I am paying the same $300.00 per month as the people overlooking pool #5 and this is what I get!!!!! Here are the BIG ISSUES: * Sewage Lines and Plumbing Line breaks everywhere on the property. * Fire Marshall Issues. No emergency lightning on floors in elevators or emergency stairwells. No lit EXIT SIGNS with battery back ups anywhere. * Pool 2 and 4 issues * Auditing of the books! 
Where is money. No independent audits done in YEARS!!!!!!! * 

AAM LLC as our Management Co. All of the above should be on agenda for this weeks HOA meeting. 
**********************************************************************************************

Mr Webmaster here is one of my favorite quotes!
"A lot of people are afraid to tell the truth, to say no. That's where toughness comes into play. Toughness is not being a bully. It's having backbone."

This is something we lack here at Anasazi

anasazi village condominiums is not worth the money

 i am looking to get out asap also the hot water boiler breaks all 
the time they dont seem to be able to fix it once and for all 
the main gate breaks or is left open all day long letting people
 come in and wander the property that dont belong here the 
security sucks in here and only have one person for 16 buildings 
if that the speeders in here dont care about the speed limit sign
 why put 9 miles an hour if people are just going to not follow it 

dont buy here or rent here if i could get out immediately 
i would hopefully before end of the year there are better 
places than anasazai and the property management 
company only care about taking your money and
 raising it every year to fix things that only keep breaking this place sucks

this place is no longer safe there are numerous problems with people getting in here when they dont belong here and no security what is so ever i have lived here for 5 years and now looking to get out before the end of the year they have people that speed disregarding the speed limit sign the main gate breaks all the time with little disregard for the safety of the residents this place isnt worth the money 

So dont buy into this hell hole also the equipment is so old and they dont replace it for the cable 
the manger doesnt care about problems or resolving them just raising money every year.
