No Hi-Impact Commercial Business 

No Mobile Homes

No Wasteful Spending

 Committement to Membership

La Cresta is a beautiful community of homeowners, outdoor enthusiasts and animal lovers who love spending time with family and enjoying the peace and tranquility of their space.

There are few locations in So Cal that are similar to LC but none that are like ours. We need to preserve our community for it's future and maintain what we now enjoy.  

The future of La Cresta is at a "Tipping Point".  My campaign contributions will be to bring members together and bring focus to the following; 

  1. No Mobile Homes ~ in accord with our Governing Documents

  2. No Hi-impact Commercial Business "Maintain Our Rural Setting"

  3. Minimize Litigation through fair enforcement of governing documents

  4. Establish a Fire Safe/Escape Plan

We now have a Manufactured Mobile Home in the LCPOA.  If the lawsuit filed by a member prevails, it may cost each member via a Special Assessment in the thousands $$$$.

 

La Cresta’s roads are now in the worst condition in our community’s history. Meanwhile, at Roy Paulson’s direction, David Boyd and his committee are drafting sweeping rule changes that would:

  1. Authorize high‑impact commercial businesses inside our residential community;

  2. Exclude cul‑de‑sac roads from the Association’s repair and maintenance obligations; and

  3. Adopt harsh, punitive enforcement measures against members

These proposals erode homeowner protections precisely when road maintenance is most urgently needed.

 

In short, the association needs new leadership and a BOD that will follow the letter of law within the Gov. Docs/By-Laws.

Issues that will ruin property values
in La Cresta

Director Appointment: Legal Concerns

Mr. Roy Paulson's Three Director Vote appointment to the Board in October  2024, and subsequent assumption to Presidents position was a violation of the precedent and principles of our By-Laws and governing Documents.

The HOA's conditional approval of a mobile home in La Cresta raises serious concerns that will affect your future property values. This decision risks replicating the CC&R violations that are now the subject of the current lawsuit against the LCPOA. 

Hi-impact Commercial Business 

In Riverside County, the RA-5 (Residential Agricultural) zone allows for single-family homes and various agricultural activities on properties with a minimum of 5 acres. While many uses are permitted outright, certain activities, like larger animal operations or specific commercial endeavors, require a Conditional Use Permit (CUP). A CUP ensures that these uses are compatible with the surrounding rural and residential character.

Proxy Vote is Legal by CA State Law

The Inspector of Elections (IOE) is the sole independent authority charged with conducting LCPOA elections, pursuant to the California Davis–Stirling Common Interest Development Act (Civil Code §§ 5100–5130). Under Civil Code § 5110(b), the IOE has exclusive jurisdiction to determine the authenticity, validity, and effect of proxies, ballots, and election materials. The IOE is further obligated under Civil Code § 5120 to tally, verify, and certify the election results, which, once certified, constitute the lawful and final outcome of the election.

Since LCPOA’s incorporation, proxies have been lawfully utilized as voting instruments. The IOE reviews each proxy, confirms compliance with LCPOA and statutory provisions, and issues a corresponding ballot to the Proxy Holder. That Proxy Holder, acting solely under the voter’s instructions, casts the ballot. This controlled process has been recognized as both legitimate and legal for decades.

Despite this established statutory framework, the Board Majority illicitly created a “Proxy Committee,” co-chaired by Jeff Wax and Mark McLeavy, for the purpose of undermining the IOE’s certified results. In February 2023, Wax and McLeavy issued a report alleging that opposition proxies were “improperly used” and/or “falsified.” These "criminal" allegations were wholly unsubstantiated and directly contradicted the IOE’s legal findings.

Important Issues

GOVERNANCE

Presently the Board majority isn’t operating the association in compliance with all LCPOA governing documents. We need to assure the members that the Governing Documents  will be strictly followed to reduce members’
liability.

FISCAL RESPONSIBILITY

we need to assure that the board operates the association with the utmost fiscal responsibility including proper development of the annual operating budget, the appropriate use of funds, appropriate use of the reserves, and appropriate mechanism for capital expenditure approval and use.

LIABILITIES

Standard business practices should be strictly adhered to regarding the bidding process,
annual operating budget, and capital improvements greater than 5% of the annual budget.

CC&RS

 

Each property owner must be afforded the same uniform application of the CC&R and By Laws.

As well as adhearning 

to the policy and procedures that have been established down through the years.

FIRE ESCAPE ROUTES

After years of having access to only one long evacuation route, another shorter secondary evacuation route must be established.

HORSE TRAILS

The issue of completing the trial system must be resolved in the best interest of the entire
community.

RESERVES

The reserve must be utilized in compliance with applicable law, not as a “slush” fund.

BAD BOARD DECISIONS

The Board Majority is not transparent nor

accessible

to its members.

YOUR INPUT MATTERS

Your voice and concerns matter. I pledge to be a dedicated representative who will actively address  issues and work diligently to implement solutions that benefit our entire community.
