This clown Anonymous wishes that the developer increases all fees, Golf, Storage and Boat dock and also the CDD on all homes should have been $20,000 across the board. Where is this guy coming from. Another of Joe Hunters and Jack Van Sickle friends, all full of hot air coming from both ends. Jack wants to increase taxes and you people love him. Call the cops.

Golf Course Will go public
The Lake Ashton Course will go public on October 1, 2009. No longer will the residents enjoy the private Lake Ashton residents golf course. Times are changing. Like I said its all about money not the residents. This message was send to me by one of our residents and it may not be the truth.

Keith & Margot Stevens
Keith Stevens takes pictures for the L A Times and for his services he gets a free pass to play golf and who knows what else he gets. This is worth $3600. In other words, he gets paid by the developer for his services. His wife, Margot is on the CDD committee and is in the interest of the developer not the residents of Lake Ashton. We all hope she does not get reelected next term. The residents of Lake Ashton are taken a step back not forward.

poll
Poll shows that the residents enjoy reading this blog site. 7 to 4 agree its a great site for interesting topics and jokes.
Paul Pontious
Doesn't Paul Pontious ever give up. He thinks he's on the ARC committee and the HOA. He is involved in solving problems with the committee. Who does he think he is? Joe Hunter the great. Paul, please go back home and watch the Disney channel. If your such a nice guy, why don't you pay for the ballroom so I can raise money for Give Kids The World and have a free show for the residents.
Golf Course
Lets look at the income. There are over 430 residents that paid their golf fee of $3,600.00 430 X 3,600 equals $1,548,000.00 income plus all the visitor's and guest. The income is well over $1,750,000.00 Not bad, maybe I got a chance to buy into it. I think I will give him a call. Anyone else interested??????

You're a 19 year old kid. You're critically wounded, and dying in the jungle in the Ia Drang Valley , 11-14-1965, LZ X-ray, Vietnam . Your infantry unit is outnumbered 8 - 1, and the enemy fire is so intense, from 100 or 200 yards away, that your own Infantry Commander has ordered the MediVac helicopters to stop coming in. You're lying there, listening to the enemy machine guns, and you know you're not getting out. Your family is 1/2 way around the world, 12,000 miles away, and you'll never see them again. As the world starts to fade in and out, you know this is the day.
Then, over the machine gun noise, you faintly hear that sound of a helicopter, and you look up to see an un-armed Huey, but it doesn't seem real, because no Medi-Vac markings are on it.
Ed Freeman is coming for you. He's not Medi-Vac, so it's not his job, but he's flying his Huey down into the machine gun fire, after the Medi-Vacs were ordered not to come.
He's coming anyway.
And he drops it in, and sits there in the machine gun fire, as they load 2 or 3 of you on board.
Then he flies you up and out through the gunfire, to the Doctors and Nurses.
And, he kept coming back.... 13 more times..... And took about 30 of you and your buddies out, who would never have gotten out.
Medal of Honor Recipient, Ed Freeman, died last Wednesday at the age of 80, in Boise, ID ......May God rest his soul.....
I bet you didn't hear about this hero's
Passing, but we sure were told a whole
Bunch about some Hip-Hop Coward
Beating the crap out of his "girlfriend"
Medal of Honor Winner
Ed Freeman!
Shame on the American Media
Its like reading the L A Times, They only write the crap that they want you to read. Nothing about whats happening around the community. Try posting your letter in the LA Times. Good Luck

Money Receive must be accountable
All money Receive must be accountable and all bills paid must accountable but this is not the way Lake Ashton is playing the game. You will never be told where the money is going. You will never receive a notice of debits and credits. You are a fool if you don't asked. Good Luck.
Woman accused of bilking association of $484,196

All Cheryl Pyle wanted to know was if her name was on the reserve bank account of her homeowners' association.
The Heron's Forest Property Owners Association president got a shock when she asked a SunTrust branch bank: The account had been closed for a year.
"Boy, did my jaw drop," she said.
Pyle's discovery led to Tina Mitchell, 39, being arrested April 14 and accused of embezzling $484,196 from the bank accounts of several homeowners' associations over the past five years.
Mitchell's former employer, Montgomery Management Associates, managed the associations' accounts, including the Heron's Forest reserve account. The funds for Heron's Forest are used for such things as maintenance and landscaping, Pyle said.
Mitchell, a bookkeeper, is scheduled for arraignment in Escambia Circuit Court at 9 a.m. today.
Charges against her include theft, counterfeiting and forgery. She was released on a $45,800 bond Thursday.
"Everybody is concerned, but we want to move on," Pyle said.
Mitchell admitted taking money from the accounts after company officials questioned her in March, according to a Pensacola police arrest report.
She issued about 129 unauthorized checks under the previous owner, Carol Wilkes, as well as during her current employment under owner Robert Montgomery, the report says.
Mitchell told investigators she scanned the signatures of Wilkes and Vice President/Manager Susan Moody, then printed them onto the checks. She said she obtained the blank checks from the back of a stack in the office.
The checks were made payable to Michael Mitchell, M Mitchell or Mitchell Maintenance, according to the arrest report.
When Tina Mitchell met with company officials about the discrepancies, she was accompanied by her husband, Michael Mitchell. She said she acted alone and no one knew of her fraudulent activity, the report says.
"The accounts of the associations that Ms. Mitchell controlled are currently being audited to determine the amount of embezzlement by Ms. Mitchell as well as the procedure and technique used by Ms. Mitchell to hide her misdeeds," Montgomery Management said in a statement.
Besides Heron's Forest, the homeowners' association accounts involved include Sailwind at SunTrust and three Sabine accounts and a Baywinds account at the Bank of Pensacola, now Coastal Bank and Trust.
She's also accused of creating false tax documents for Heron's Forest.
Pyle said she went to a SunTrust branch in March after asking Mitchell several times about adding her name to the account. She said could not believe it when the bank told her the account was closed in March 2008.
With the revelation, Pyle went to talk to Mitchell at Montgomery Management. Mitchell, Pyle said, told her the account had been moved to another bank.
Pyle said she went to the bank and found a reserve account had been opened in the association's name. It was opened with $100 in March 2008.
"By the end of the year, there was no large amount put in, and in fact, it had been whittled down to $76 in the account because there were bank charges," Pyle said.
