Oppression in Sun City Anthem...It's Now in a State of Crisis

Sun City Anthem Management Declares War on Residents Attempting to Obtain Information
Image result for war on oppression
This time the Sun City Anthem General Manager, at the likely direction of a Sun City Anthem Attorney, with full cooperation from the existing Sun City Anthem Board, have literally declared war on unit owners attempting to obtain information to which they are legally entitled.
Sun City Anthem recently introduced a new policy for obtaining documents under NRS 116.31175.
"If a unit owner requests any association documents directly from the office or attempts to do so by an on-line note, there is now a mandatory non-disclosure agreement required before the documents will be provided.  This covers any and all association documents available to a unit owner who is not a board member or an officer."
Accordingly, a long-time Sun City Anthem resident took the matter so seriously, that individual subsequently wrote this email to the Nevada Real Estate Division's Office of the Ombudsman:
"Please advise if there is anything in NRS 116 or NAC 116 that provides for the association to do this.  If so I hope you can give me some guidance on the law/code to help me understand.  

If there is ability of the board to require this non-disclosure agreement and the unit owner refuses to sign the non-disclosure agreement, how does this affect the fines to the board after 21 days shown in section 3 of NRS 116.31175?"
To which he received this response from the Office of the Ombudsman:

"Thank you for forwarding the document.
We both know that NRS 116 requires that records be provided or made available to unit owners upon written request.
After speaking with the Ombudsman, the availability of records as described in NRS 116.31175 cannot be conditioned on a non-disclosure contract.
Refusal to sign such an agreement does not alleviate the association’s obligation to provide or make available records of the association.
The “mandatory acknowledgement” form that you provided is contrary to NRS 116, as such a document is not required by law."

On Tuesday, March 20th, we learned that a resident made a document request, submitting the form WITHOUT SIGNING IT...

...and was initially informed the request would NOT BE GRANTED UNLESS THE NEW DOCUMENT REQUEST FORM...

...which included a nondisclosure requirement with corresponding threatening penalties... 

...WAS SIGNED.

The Sun City Anthem employee in the Anthem Center Office, without giving the individual the written formal acknowledgement of receipt, accepted the document request form.

While waiting for the Sun City Anthem employee, the individual making the request heard another individual in the office state that others had also made requests and refused to sign the disclosure form.

He refused to sign the disclosure statement based on his belief this violated Nevada law.

We have no idea if the request will be granted, and we will tell you, our readers, if the requests are subsequently provided.

The association has up to 21 days to respond, and based on past requests, normally the full 21 days passes before any document request is granted.

Despite the Office of the Ombudsman declaring a signed nondisclosure statement violated NRS regulations...

...in checking the Sun City Anthem website, the same form is still present DEMANDING the disclosure form be signed.

We strongly suggest you click below to examine this newest form with the disclosure statement......not in compliance with NRS regulations that still remains:


- - - - - - - - - - - - - -


How to view this form:


1. You must first sign in to the new SCA website by clicking on this link:


2. After signing in, go to the top of the screen and click on "Governance".

3. Once that new screen opens, scroll down to a blue rectangle entitled "Doc Request Form" and then click on the blue area.

4. The "Record Request Form" will appear and you can then print to to fully view.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

These requirements NEVER BEFORE EXISTED...and in our opinion,  are an attempt to STONEWALL information that according to law, should be readily available to any unit owner....

...creating UNDUE FEAR AND HARASSMENT in the mind of any person who might wish to make a request.

Has this Board, General Manager, and new Association Attorney now gone too far?

Is this an example of the transparency Board members and the General Manager have pledged to the community
Are there any of you that continue to DOUBT our allegations and concerns about the governance and management of Sun City Anthem...
...or will you or others who continue to support or ignore  these oppressive tactics....

...that in excess of 1,200 good and caring people of Sun City Anthem...
...made every attempt to rid themselves of during the removal effort a few months ago ???
Let this be a lesson as to who you believe in this community, and who deceives you in order to maintain this oppressive behavior.
We MUST rid ourselves of such individuals.  

If not, what next?
For now, if you choose to obtain information from Sun City Anthem, based on this correspondence received from the Office of Ombudsman...


REFUSE TO SIGN IT


and 

FILE A COMPLAINT WITH THE NEVADA REAL ESTATE DIVISION.
Most importantly, if you condemn this activity or believe such behavior must cease...
You must NOT endorse or accept such action from our community leadership.
Those individuals include the current members of the Sun City Anthem Board....who, with their support of such actions, are responsible for allowing a General Manager to reduce your ability to "police" their actions....

...especially those running for reelection ! 

We must NOT reelect...
Aletta Waterhouse
Robert Burch
James Coleman
 Unless...
...such individuals take IMMEDIATE ACTION TO TERMINATE THE RELATIONSHIP with General Manager, Sandra Seddon, and Association Attorney, Adam Clarkson.
Little doubt can now remain that the combined actions of these individuals have created the worst chaos that has ever been allowed to exist in Sun City Anthem's 19 year existence.
This is our community, and we must take it back...

...or they will continue to...


Take it from you !

  1. From Hollis Habeger...to...Anthem Opinions

    Kudo’s to Mr. Goldstein in a previous article for his financial comparison outline of the Sun City Summerlin self-managed senior community which is larger than Sun City Anthem.

    It shows that self-management can be effective and successful, when fiscal responsibility and oversight is utilized by competent board members!!

    This information clearly exposes the exorbitant salary that our General Manager is receiving, with less job responsibility.

    It’s those important “Princess” credentials and certifications that we are paying for……..right?

    Hoping that this information may WAKE UP any complacent residents that still believe that they haven’t been bamboozled by the board…….    
    1. Part One of Two

      Wouldn't it be a joy if David Berman could just do his biased endorsements without mentioning me in any way?

      Well, to you  Davey Boy...do your thing...and by the way, the name is "Anthem Opinions", not Dick Arendt's blog...

      Unlike you, we have MANY contributors who submit articles on various topics that actually interest people, and we don't charge advertising fees like you do, though we have had numerous offers.

      You know as well as I do, that you erased your blog counter to allow people to see how few people pay attention to your antics, insults, and demeaning comments you make, as well as, the nameless cowards you allow to do the same.

      That's entertainment?

      That's LOW CLASS !

      Talking about cowards...you certainly proved to be one when you saw fit to REMOVE the comments of HOA candidate, Gary Lee, after he asked why you showed such bias.

      Did Mr. Lee ask something  that was a bit too honest a question for your ego to handle?

      Any reason you FAILED to inform your readers about the ILLEGAL DISCLOSURE FORM the ones YOU ENDORSE, fully SANCTIONED ???

      Of course not, that would have to involve TELLING THE FULL TRUTH about the latest attempt they obviously supported to PROVE their attempts to BLOCK ANY OWNER from obtaining any relevant community financial information to which they are LEGALLY ENTITLED....

      ...while scaring the hell out of individuals who might make requests with the numerous threats made as part of the document request.

      What a sham !

      A sham that your ENDORSEMENTS got caught with their pants down to their knees as a result of trying to pull the wool over people's eyes through intimidation and harassment.

      A sham that didn't work !
    2. Part Two of Two

      Berman, you and your crowd are nothing more than CONTROL FREAKS  who need a "system" to exist.

      Your background track record is disgusting, and any individual who would look at you as some kind of respectable role model whose advice is worth anything for endorsing such trickery, deception and total failure, is obviously every bit the loser in life yours has proven to be.

      All of your cowardly nameless rat pack followers are cut out of the same mold....losers in life, whose only success is among fellow losers ...all the while harming innocent people to a private, selfish end.

      That is the legacy you will have when you leave this earth.

      With all the money that has been lost on SCA restaurants that you have FULLY ENDORSED over the years and your ENDORSEMENTS of those who have been responsible for those substantial losses, what you really are, is the poster boy for FAILURE, not just in SCA, but in life.

      Do we need to tell the community of the history of attempts to contact board members to explain the past business records of those who  operated the restaurants?  You never did, but WE DID.

      Here's a quick summary of the "wise" decisions YOU ENDORSED and those dumb board members who led us down a 5 time LOSING path, made.

      1. Giving a lease to a guy and his wife...the guy serving 6 years in a Colorado Penitentiary for robbing 8 Las Vegas banks.

      2. Giving $40,000 of loans to a guy who was delinquent in rent and utilities...without proper financial vetting.

      3. Giving a lease to a guy who had an outstanding $150,000 judgment against him that had not been satisfied with a defendant having first call on any money.

      4. A TV cook who now runs a sandwich shop near UNLV.

      So Mr. Nobody, I suggest you take some more depression pills. You obviously need them to tell yourself you are a somebody; when in fact, most of us look at you as the mentally impaired laughing stock of Sun City Anthem who is despised by most people...other than your nameless groupies.

      How about we put you under a lie detector test so the community can finally see the FRAUD  you have always been?

      Now go to your meetings, sit there with your recorder, and make like a big man whose life centers around trolling a community between visits to the many angry discussions people have witnessed you have had with Green Valley video poker machines...after the M Resort told you to "take a hike" a number of years ago.

      Go spend mommy's money.  We know you never earned much of your own.

      And oh yes...Aletta Waterhouse was a LIBRARIAN without a lick of business experience....just a bureaucrat like you who "tells people how to do it"...but NEVER have done it themselves.
      1. Anthem Opinions STANDS by the M Resort statement regarding David Berman.

        When a person meets the top guy and acts like he "owns" Sun City Anthem, and then tells him that he wants all the benefits and comps of a high roller as a result, what merely resulted was Mr. Berman being told...

        GO AWAY !

        I never said Bozo was kicked out of anywhere on a permanent basis...that's his version of "stretching the truth" in displaying his typical paranoiac self.  I'm sure he's free to drop his wife's money where ever he chooses to do so, earning benefits in the same manner others do.

        Just remember, Davey boy, I wasn't the one who got caught cheating people...

        You were.

        ...and anyone who would trust a person with that a part of his past when combined with antics that resemble those of a raving maniac, couldn't be very far behind in the credibility department.

        Let's not forget you owned the record for "code of conduct" complaints....one of which was picking up a chair at a community meeting and threatening to break it over an innocent woman's head....until mommy, in her infinite wisdom as the then association president, make sure the practice was discontinued.

        We have lots of witnesses to that one !

        Or how about that piece your wrote some time ago trying to convince a community that the Woodchips Club was responsible for a man's suicide...making every attempt to convince his widow to sue that club...

        ...while at the same time two of its members "just happened" to be running for the Sun City Anthem Board whom you opposed.

        How about the petition you sponsored to have Rana Goodman removed from the Henderson Senior Citizen's Advisory Commission...until those of us who know your "style", obtained a copy of the petition having 8 names...all of which were your "loser" friends, a wife of one who stated her signature was forged?

        What about your "coup" to have Rana Goodman not approved by the Sun City Anthem Board as a Lifestyle Committee member...while your wife "just happened" to be the Association president?

        That one worked due to CORRUPTION....damning the same woman who is responsible for changing Nevada Guardianship laws. You going to deny that one?

        How about one of the restaurants you were an active part of in a backdoor meeting that excluded two Board members...you know, the one that you backed along with the other Board members (and mommy)...the guy who robbed 8 Las Vegas banks and did 6 years in Colorado's Federal pen?

        Sun City Anthem would love to put you on a Lie Detector.
        Yes sir, that best describes a corrupt conniving reptile who will do ANYTHING , doesn't it?

        Any reason why the only Sun City Anthem publication that looks at you as a reputable source...

        ...is you ?

        We're all wrong except you, right?

        How about we take a poll and ask people how many of these characteristics best describe your behavior?  
      2. https://www.mcafee.cc/Bin/sb.html      
      3.      
          1. In the minds of many...it's believed this scene from a movie was based on  your very existence...
          2. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eCFRd1vnK-0
          3.  Please, for the sake of our community, go back to your hobbit and join the nameless nitwits who enjoy listening to a lunatic who has never accomplished anything of value in his life...
          4. Get a life, and go about your business of praising those who have been responsible for losing thousands of our association funds, conducting unethical acts, and using you as a their "poster boy".

            They know that if they need corruption, lies, and insults, you'll always their "go to guy".

            Your experience in such matters is second to none...and you bore us in the process.

            And if you are the type of person to trust in light of all of this, God help Sun City Anthem.
