Homeowner report on last Steering Committee meeting. Important new information.

Some things learned at the meeting on July 23:

One of the homeowners who had attended Ralf's meeting said he had seen Ralf's license to provide security services and asked Julio Brown, the steering committee's attorney, directly if he had ever seen  Ralf's license. After being pointedly questioned 2 or 3 times, the attorney finally answered no.

Julio Brown, is representing the steering committee on the 3 pending lawsuits. What exactly does this mean? Since the steering committee represents the homeowners are the homeowners responsible for payment of these legal fees???

BCS is suing the VEHOA (thats all of the homeowners) for breach of contract (because of a decision the steering committee made to withhold payments for the last 3 months). The contract with BCS does not expire till 3/15/15. Members of the steering committee do not believe it will cost more than 24,000 to 35,000 to settle it, but no one knows for sure how much it will cost.

Richard Charbit was present at the meeting on Skype. It was reported that he was very agitated on his Skype call.  When a homeowner asked where he was skyping from, he snapped out with "It's none of your business". He repeated this more than once, in a loud agitated voice.

When asked if he was deported, Mr. Charbit responded loudly that he was not deported, but expelled from the country of Panama and that his permanent residence had been cancelled.

What is the difference between deported and expelled? Deported means a person can reapply to return in 5 years. Expelled means that they can never return. The steering committee continued to lead us to believe through their emails and newsletters, that Panama had not kicked him out of the country and that he would be returning soon.

It will be interesting to hear this meeting for ourselves when the Steering Committee posts the recording on their website.
