Open Letter to LA HOA BOD and all LA Residents

To:  HOA BOD and All LA Residents

Please advise the status of MX.  As you know, your attorney, (Dan Perry) who protects only the BOD and not the residents, has collected a substantial about of money, from Residents; to date, we are unaware of a case being filed, yet the collection process goes on. Is this just a joke and a way for your attorney to scam money from residents?

If you were doing your due diligence, you would have sourced another attorney, that would have informed you that this process has been blown out of portion and is just another scam.

Open Letter to All Lake Ashton Residents

Open Letter to All Lake Ashton Residents

To the CDD

You were advised last year, by our committee; that the $550,000 spent on road repair, would be ineffective and that it would have to be redone the following year for the same or greater cost, since it only addressed a symptom vice the cause of our failing road system.

Additionally, roadways not addressed continued to further decline. 

You had an opportunity, while the developer was still here, to address this major construction failure, legally.   Yet, based upon two CCD members, you failed to do so as a result of the private, financial and personal agendas with the developer.

Is it possible that you are interested enough in this community now, to now listen to an asphalt company with solid credentials, take their advice and implement, before, you bankrupt this community.

Can you belive the arrogance of some golfers ...

12 March 2013

Matt,

This note is in response to an anonymous, harassing letter I received from 16 of your golf members, (copy provided below) which I have turned over to the Sheriff’s office for finger printing, identification and prosecution.  

This anonymous letter from cowards highlights the extent of their arrogance and disregard for private property.  I request that golf members who are caught trespassing, be removed from future play and banned from play at the Lake Ashton Golf course and that they lose any and all membership fees.  

Please post this anonymous harassing letter in conjunction with this letter. 

You and your golf course players need to read, understand and heed, the below article; I will hold both the Trespasser and the Golf Course accountable, when players trespass into my property. Ignorance is no excuse.  

As you know, I have been in contact with you for some time now and you have done nothing, as I can ascertain, to instruct your members accordingly.  

Please post this letter in your spaces so that EVERY Golfer can be made aware.

No home owner should have to tolerate people walking all over ones property, in between homes, not to mention those who look/glare, ‘peak’ into windows etc ..

The below article was posted on 7 Jan 2013 at http://lakeashtontherestofthestory.blogspot.com/2013/01/trespass-golf-courses-recurrent-entry.html .

Summary of article:  NOTE:  TRESPASS; GOLF COURSES:  Recurrent entry of golf balls onto Homeowners’ property constitutes a continuing trespass.  There is no viable "House on the Golf Course" defense.   You can't claim the owner was asking for it when he bought that beautiful house on the 12th fairway.  Also, the existence of property insurance is NEVER determinative in assessing liability.  You can’t even mention the existence of an insurance policy in court except as evidence to establish ownership.  There are no ifs and or buts about it, if you break someone’s window with your golf ball… run away like a child and deny it was you… I mean break out your checkbook and pony up.

Mr. Richard Earl

Lake Wales, FL 33859

Dear Mr. Earl,

I represent a group of 16 golfers, who play almost daily, on the Lake Ashton
courses.

We have noticed that very often, as we play the 16th hole of The East
Course, your lawn sprinklers are running, in direct violation of Southwest
Florida Water Management District water restrictions. Since this seems to
be an ongoing practice, on your part, we feel it is our responsibility to report
each and every such violation to the proper authorities.

We recognize that you have the right to irrigate on Thursdays and
Sundays before 10:00 AM and after 4:00 PM, and we will certainly ignore
irrigation usage during those windows. But for all other days, your violations
will be promptly reported.

We hope that you will take this as merely a "heads-up" and conform to the
requirements of the city, for the good of all residents.

Yours truly,
The Committee For Responsible Water Usage

Van Sickle Runs again --

Remember John Paul Rodgers, the former Grand Dragon of Fl, who served on the Lake Wales City Commission?  Well, one of his long time supporters, Jack Van Sickle, is back.  Here is a copy of a letter I sent to the Ledger.  I’d appreciate getting the word out

Semper Fi,

Van Sickle runs again

By R. Earl

Major, USMC (Ret)

Former Mayor Jack Van Sickle, a long time supporter of John Paul Rogers, (Rodgers was a lifelong member of the KKK and was the former Grand Dragon of Florida), is now, once again, attempting to seek the position of Mayor of Lake Wales. 

This is an outrage since the citizens of Lake Wales spoke, no shouted, by an 84%, to remove Jack Van Sickle from Lake Wales City Commission service.

How can this be you ask?  After all, the largest voting turnout in the history of Lake Wales demanded the ousting of Jack Van Sickle from city government by 84%.

In a Ledger article announcing his cadency for Lake Wales Mayor, http://www.theledger.com/article/20130215/NEWSCHIEF/130219583, extensively mentions his on-going health challenges yet barely mentions why the people of Lake Wales voted him out of office in the first place.

Let’s recap Mr. Van Sickle’s record:

·      Jack Van Sickle, a long time supporter of John Paul Rogers, a known Grand Dragon in the United Klan’s of America the most violent and largest Klan organization of its time. Van Sickle has equated John Paul Rogers’s affiliation with the Klan to that of someone having had several speeding tickets in ones past.  Really?  Do you know that Van Sickle’s supporters CHEERED when he made this comparison!

·      During his tenure as Mayor, over $600,000 dollars was stolen from Lake Wales city funds; Van Sickle was a person of interest in the case – this case has yet to be solved.

·      Van Sickle increased the City of Lake Wales’s Debt from $25.5 Million Dollars to over $35 Million Dollars

·      Van Sickle’s plan to pay off $2 Million Dollars (from the Cities Reserve Fund), not only drains the drains the reserve fund but does little to pay the interest on the current 35 Million Dollar deficit. At the end of 9 years the City will be facing over a $50 Million dollar deficit, just on interest of the $35 Million alone.

·      To give you an idea how ‘fiscally conservative’ Van Sickle is, he wasted over $200,000 dollars on a project that surveyed a parking lot of which nothing could ever be built there. 

·      Van Sickle did NOTHING to address the failing infrastructure that includes the City’s sewer system that constantly fails and overflows into the streets and resident’s homes.

·      In over 8 years of Commission service, Van Sickle did little to address the worsening economic situation that the City of Lake Wales has been facing for many years.

·      Van Sickle, like his buddy John Paul Rodgers, are betting that the people of Lake Wales have short memories and that new comers to the area remain totally uniformed about his record and questionable affiliations with members of the KKK and the former Grand Dragon, John Paul Rodgers. 

·      Van Sickle went to great lengths to explain his health challenges YET has never apologized for his long time affiliation and support of Grand Dragon John Paul Rodgers. 

Lake Wales needs real leadership and not a continuation of the ‘Good Ol Boy’ network.

Vote for Eugene l. Fultz, a REAL leader with experience that Lake Wales needs.
