President Reagan coined the term "VOO DOO Economics". More recently, we Californian's have heard the term "Enron-itis".

HOA Fraud Investigations News Services"CREATIVE" Accounting also known as "Cooking the Books" is alive and well in California Homeowner Associations. Residents are being victimized by Enron-like fraudulent accounting practices as board members and managers conceal, hide and cover up stealing, gross negligence and failure to comply with Section 1366 of the California Civil Code.

All over Southern California HOA reserve trust fund accounts have been raided and in fact depleted for such frivolous and fool hearty endeavors as construction defect quality cyclical maintenance and repair projects, slipshod and fly by night Board Member's vendors, litigation to line the pockets of HOA lawyers to clean up the debacles created by the previously referenced projects and vendors, and overlooking stealing, embezzlement and gross mismanagement of HOA trust funds.

David McGrath and his "Cheer Group"  featuring one Brian Martin and Jan Meldola, the only 2 attending Board Members during recent Election (everyone else refused to be associated with this group),  made sure that no less then $53,000 of our money goes to David's lawyer Raymond Szu for his attempts to illicitly change our Bylaws under false pretext that he is changing the "Rules" and to harass a member whose right to be seated as a Board Member has been corruptly and unlawfully denied. Mr. Szu is very capable gentlemen. He is not only a lawyer but also a passioned and seemingly professional gambler who regularly plays in Poker tournaments for money.  To find out how successful he is in changing employers and his Poker game, Google his name to believe what's you'll see.

MARK MONTGOMERY – NEW CAI TRAINED MANAGER BRINGS "70's STYLE" TO CCV

After unsuccessfully trying to replace all their vendors and after causing ongoing turmoil on the Board of Marina Pacifica HOA (Long Beach, CA) Mark Montgomery 'resigned' to avoid being FIRED.   (Please also note that allegedly, office stuff Jessica P. was getting ready to seeing lawyer because Mark Montgomery was harassing her daily to persuade her to quit her job - what a ruthless charachter!)

 Mark Montgomery got hired by Cross Creek Village curtsey of brigand attorney Adrian J Adams, Esq, who besidees of being a 'Esq' runs an  'Jobs for Managers' web site. (Click on the link to see it) Apperently Adams directed his subordiante Pat Smith, a shamless women, who is known as his 'cuppler' and Jonathan Kolkey who got no mind of his own, to give Mark the job regardless of his reputation.

For these of you who are not familiar with this Cross Creek Village ominous character, please be informed that among other things Adrain Adams did unethically, for the sake of making profit, was his ongoing support for CCV corruption. The previous Board who followed his corrupt instructions also paid Adams' shamelessly over $100,000 of our money, primarily for the service of harassing residents (e.g. Pat Smith, Kolkey and Peltomaa’s political opponents) who despised Pat Smith’s apparent “cappler” type of employment with Adrian Adams and her kick-back deal with BINO, which means she (and her cohorts)was getting percentage of each 'legal' bill Adams and BINO submitted to Cross Creek Village.

After changing three jobs in little over a year, and after lasting only 10 (or so) months at the Marina Pacifica and after allegedly being fired by previous employer ("PCM Management") , Mark Montgomery came to Playa Del Rey, CA in hope he can bamboozle members of Cross Creek Village! Not so FAST buddy!

 This CAI Trained veteran's alleged reputation is that he is TROUBLE MAKER" and a "HE CANNOT TELL THE TRUTH" (just like Pat Smith and David McGrath), we was told.

While we want to give Mark a chance and wish to welcome Mark Montgomery to our nice complex we would also like to give a bust to our HOA spirit with a gentlemanly question for all CCV members: What kind of mustaches do you think the CCV new manager Mark Montgomery wears?



We think he is typical "Box Car" or "Major" but would look better if he doesn color them along with his hair ... What do you think fellow Cross Creek Village HOA Memember? Please post your answers in the comments section of this blog-post!
