Subliminal Opinions! What is working well? The Status Quo!

 Representative Parenti and other co-sponsors of HB23-1105.

You are aware how the conservative voices in the legislature fought to defeat this bill. Once the conservatives realized their efforts were in vain, they fought to LIMIT the scope of the Report of the Committee’s investigations, and then required presenters NOT to express any personal opinions of their findings of fact, except for these subliminal opinions by the pro HOA and Metropolitan District beneficiaries (Attorney firms, “Of Counsel” Attorneys, Bond producers and Community Developers).

I recall, every “YouTube” presentation ending with, What is working well? The unanimous response from beneficiaries, the current laws in effect. How balanced was this process. What is working well for less than a dozen Attorney firms (my calculations, BWAT&W along with McGeady-Becher, benefit from 22 to 25% of the existing 2500+ Metropolitan Districts), under two dozen “Of Counsel” Attorneys and two dozen or so Community Developers; is not working well for over 1,200,000+ property owners and over 2,000,000 Colorado voters.

Otherwise, this legislation and these hearings would not be required!

I ask you and your co-sponsor keep the faith, keep the pressure on fellow legislators to fully reform HOA and Metropolitan District abuses, and rely on the Minority Reports from each Committee findings, especially the recommendations from Mr. Brian Matise and Ms. Natasha O’Flaherty.

Good luck on your re-election campaign.
