After this meeting I asked if we could get a sit down to settle our differences and all hell breaks loose. They just cannot be civil. The president John McGuiness and I came to an agreement. The agreement included to allow me to print a rebuttal to 2 false articles defaming me by Barbara Egner in the September Bulletin. I wrote my rebuttal and was force to edit it because they did not like what I was exposing to the shareowners. This was my submitted rebuttal:

Unfounded Accusation

What is the Radburn Act?

Rebuttal

By Michael Alegre

After the 10:00am September 1,2021 meeting it was agreed it would be fair to address the articles written By Barbara Egner in the September bulletin. That article was so politically motivated and false, I had to send a copy to the State and this is the response I received from the Association Regulation Unit:

“Mr. Alegre. I spoke with the assoc. atty about the election law requirements. It appears they understand what needs to be done. If you choose, you can point out that things did not change until you contacted DCA. It is routine to have boards use their communication monopoly to assert they are always right. (I could write an entire book chapter in the misrepresentations board Presidents make to justify actions that do not comport with the law but which conveniently support their positions or hold on power.)

Until the law mandates equal time/access for owners when boards attack them or misrepresent facts, it is something each assoc. will have to deal with on its own. You can take solace in the fact that they felt the need to do this, which to me shows weakness at best.

The law needs to require that boards formally make our letters available to owners as part of the minutes (another reason to change board leadership so new members can see those letters). It is typical that, even when we point out board violations of owner rights and demand compliance, that boards announce the State supports them. In a recent case in which my letter excoriated a Board Pres for repeatedly cancelling elections for over a year (one of the most scathing letters I have written to a board), she outrageously reported that the DCA supported her position. Unfortunately, I am precluded from making my letter public, so I urged the complainant to demand that the board pres. make my letter available to the members-which she naturally would not do (and thus reveal her misrepresentation). As in your case I spoke with the atty to ensure he knew there would be monetary penalties if an election were not held in the immediate future- which is happening there.

This entire area needs much more legislative attention geared to protecting owners-starting with counsel fees for owners. The legislature needs to provide budgetary support for actual staffing if it expects the State to enforce all owner rights. I am overwhelmed with all manner of election complaints and inquiries (many of which are not directly addressed by the law and require interpretation -hampered by the need to adapt to a Covid situation) over the entire State and cannot keep up with what needs to be done. “

ME: You can see where the State is heading to help Shareowners stand up to the abuse Boards use against them. I have been doing the same, and every time I uncovered the truth, I stood up and provided it. Getting this Board to discuss or provide anything has always been an uphill battle since the first day I met them on July 23,2020. Because of the encouragement of many shareholders, I persevered. As a result of my journey, many good things have been accomplished, giving the voters a real chance for change. I do apologize to the shareowners for the seemingly constant public arguments I have had to go through, just to get your rights protected. It was the game they chose for many years. I hope everything in the end will turn out for the good, God Bless you all.


Barbara wrote that they were forced to contact the DCA and that was not accurate. The DCA ARU contacted them and the attorney first only because I filed a complaint. Also the complaint I filed had nothing to do with the 2020 election, it had to do with the Current 2021 election violations they attempted to execute. I have tried for over a year to discuss civilly different concerns about this 2021 election as you listen to this recording you can see that is impossible. I am the first person with the strength to put up a good fight, along with deep research, and with the advice and support from State agencies I have proven how misleading this Board has been for several years. My whole story will be available in a folder of chain letters, emails and other responses. You can contact me by sending an information request to: [email protected].

My efforts resulted in having 6 seats to be open for election instead of the 2 this board tried to enforce. Barbara also wrote they vacated their seats like they did something good for you, that is not true.
