• Why wasn't the 558/Developer lawsuit Settlement details disclosed to all?  It was signed off back in March.

Update Election:  There are only 4 candidates in the East: I and the 3 existing board directors who campaigned together last year.  In 2022, the previous Property manager campaigned for two of them!... door to door.   2022 was the first year we had a quorum, and thus the first Election, due to my efforts.  Back then I found out that 50 percent of the paper mailings were sent to inexistent addresses.  Of course, the Board and Management, chastised me for delaying the election based on this reason.  But they were forced to do it by law!  If you'd like me to be on the Board, then you should only cast only one vote to me.  Any other combination will not bring me enough votes.  Remember that the other 3 candidates are reaching all 400 Sunny Isles residents, while at the same time, refusing me any venue to address all.

The Annual meeting and vote counting for the East Association will be held on November 21st at 5:30pm!   This is the Election that Counts:  

The President of the East is omnipotent, unless the Bylaws are changed (which I strongly support).   The PE will appoint 4 members on the Master Board, which is a majority.   These 4 members will choose him as Master President.  The Master President is the only point person with the Attorney of the Association and FSR Management!  yes... call that a Kingdom.    According to our current East and West Boards, the Master President is also Owners representative for voting on large Assessments, unlike regular Condos governed by Condo law only.   We are governed by both HOA and Condo law.  This is a terrible weakness in our Bylaws, that will work only against our condo owners.  Basically, instead of Owners voting on Master Assessments, it's the Master President and West President who could pass them... on behalf of the Owners!  Only at 400 Sunny Isles!  

Updates:  Re Management and Board letter 11/12  2:15pm:  There is Theory, and then there is Practice.  (in one instance, ACs, the Board went against the recommendation of the Engineer!... ask me for details and proof).  As a Board member on the East and on the Master Boards, I witnessed that these two did NOT match.  Also, an audit of a Management company, by itself...  what value does it carry?   Our owners can speak better of poor maintenance, service and weaponizing of the violation and fine rules with false claims and no evidence (as experienced by several residential owners, including myself).    When owners are asked by Management employees to support the current board in elections, this is not "neutrality".  When Management employees with ballots in hand, knock on peoples doors asking them to support the Board, this is not neutrality.   When Management Regional Director insists that the newly elected Directors of the West, do not pick who they want for Officers, this is certainly, not neutrality of Management (as happened last year).   When Management VP intimidates and stops the West Board new members from exposing serious irregularities and illegal acts to their West Owners.... THIS IS NOT NEUTRALITY of this Management company employees.  

      Re Marina lawsuit:  Please stay tuned for tomorrow 11/13 final hearing (Correction: not ruling... looks like the decision might come next week).  The communication from the Master back in August was not final.  It remains to be seen if all of the  >$100sK spending was a complete waste of money for our owners.  All Master Association members.  Many dual members paid on both sides of this wasteful lawsuit.  

Election 2024

This year is quiet.   The three Board members of the East, and the one board members of the West, -  supported and campaigned for by Management in the past - are candidates again.  Everyone else gave up, probably tired and disillusioned by the unfair elections at 400 SI.  

Last year 23/24 proved to be a year of revelations:  The East Board members and Management refused all document requests of the new West Board members.  (I will say "We" because I was the appointed representative of the West, to the Master Board, until May).    We were not able to see basic documentation, like invoices and bills of the Master Association!  The attorney was changed, threats were made, discussions were carried between the new attorney of the West, and FSR attorney, until finally a huge box, of freshly printed paper of Master invoices was put in my arms with a strict timeframe to review on the spot.  And invoices were missing... especially the attorney ones.    Our Rules say that the documentation might be given in electronic format, if available as such, but Management and the Board thought it was appropriate to kill trees instead, so that the review could be as difficult as possible, if not impossible.

What else happened...  The Board members (candidates this year) and Management lied to us, by announcing that the East Steam Room got the final approval from the Building Department, and was going to be opened in a few days.  It turns out that structural work for the Steam room was done without permits, and the Building Department had no idea!  In fact, they came and gave us Stop Work orders and violations.    Consider that we paid thousands for permits, and the entire work was $28K... for changing sheet rock.  The work was approved by the current President on November 21, the day of the election.  (I was on the East Board up to Nov 21 , and there was no discussion with the Board about this work).  But the new East Board chose the vendor in December, acting like they were only considering the choice, at that time.  It didn't add up.      Also, the other two bidders were not qualified to do this work, after looking further into it:  they only did residential work... kitchens etc. 

We chose a contractor for the rooftop AC units replacement with unfair bidding!  Only one bidder was viable.  One was the existing vendor whom even the Board criticized for not maintaining the units, and the other did not hold  the appropriate licenses!   But Management didn't hesitate to go on over several months, recommending  "the other" to our owners, resulting in units installed without permits!... in turn causing our owners, violations.  (It is Management's responsibility to check for permits!  but then again, they don't even do it consistently for the common areas...  see Steam room project)   Not to mention that the ACs should not have failed after only 7 years if proper maintenance and oversight would have been exercised.

The Master Board President, and the West President prior to last year (and west candidate this year), approved terrace construction for one single owner, against the West Bylaws that state that the Board should not approve any enclosures on balconies and terraces!  Prior requests from other owners were reviewed by the Attorney and rejected for not complying with the bylaws.   It sure seems like a favor to one single owner and disregard for our Bylaws meant to  protect the consistent look of our buildings.  The enclosure is visible from almost every unit in the two buildings.   Also, just prior to last year elections, Association resources (goods) were given to some owners, seemingly in exchange for votes.

Going back to the West Board...  The new West Board members planned to denounce:  the unpermitted, and overvalued work for the Steam rooms, the dishonest communication from Management and the East Board members, and the lack of information sharing of basic data from the same.   We requested Master invoices just to understand how our money is spent!  It took months and a new lawyer to obtain a box full of incomplete, freshly printed paper.  And we requested the emails of the all the Owners in the West, (which never came in its entirety), just to communicate to them the pushback encountered with the East/Master President and Management.  No suprise here that there are no candidates for the West, this year.

Regarding the East Elections this year, if I make it to the East Board (which can only happen if enough people choose me as the only choice) I will continue to look into our spending and bring it to your attention. I will continue asking for meetings, and asking for invoices.  Regardless, I will offer to organize a recall of these three members of the East Board (implicitly the Master will change), so that transparency, fair bidding, reasonable spending, good maintenance, honest communication, can be finally brought to 400 Sunny Isles.    

The Recall process is the only method to change this Board, given the unfairness of the Elections, and abusive communication of this Board, where the chance of a reply is consistently denied.  Candidates introduction ahead of the Election is a fantasy that only happens in other buildings.

Other issues:  the Bylaws must be changed and this is NOT difficult.   The President of the East should not be allowed to name 4 members of the Master, which is a majority, basically ensuring his position as Master President, at any time, and regardless of any disagreements.  Management representatives should not be allowed to intervene in the formation of our Boards!   in 2022, a Management rep interrupted and questioned a motion to dismiss the Master President (same president as this year).  Back then there were 4 members opposing this president and his agenda to continue litigation and wasteful legal spending, and to effectively close our Pool bar with no viable option to reopen (it is still closed).   In 2023, another Management rep, insisted that the new West Directors do not go forward with their choices for Officers.  It took months and additional spending for the West Board, to bring their choice of Officers.

The Recall remains our only chance to regain our 400 Sunny Isles.  Poinciana Association did it.  It's doable and it's possible.  Contact me for details.

ELECTION UPDATE 

update 11/23:  Attorney determined at the end of the meeting, that Brett can be an Officer on the West.  Since the Organizational meeting was adjorned, this requires a special process, with its own "Attorney fees".

                                      Also, it was brought to my attention that our Manager did not bring the Voting Certificates for all units, and hence, some got disqualified.  Eg.  He confirmed receipt of VCs for one unit, earlier on 11/21.  Yet, during the vote count, the voter's Ballot was disqualified, for missing VC.  

updated 11/22 3:25pm:  

On this page, I and others supported a significant change on the Master Board.  

We lost the East completely, so we lost the Master majority.   Julio, Miguel and Gabriela won the Directors seats on the East.  Julio became President of the East, and appointed 4 people to the Master:  Himself, Miguel, Ronny and Gabriela.  Thats 4 out of 7, a majority:  any decision Julio makes, will get approved.   At the organizational meeting, these 4 Directors had the word for all 4 Officers seats.  Julio became Master President.   Leo Perez was appointed.... Treasurer!??   Ask Leo what qualifications he has:  Construction worker?...  Nothing wrong with it, except that he will be in charge of our multimillion dollar settlement with the Developer.  The details of the settlement will be announced soon.  Leo was Director on the Master for the past year, and he never said a word in the meetings!

We gained the West.   Thats only one seat on the Master:  Tina Flavio.  Congratulations Tina!  She will fight, but she's in minority and her vote will not count in the end.  Jackie is President of the West Association.

FSR/Management team was hard at work, influencing our elections:  knocked on doors, approached people and told them who to vote for, in the East, where it mattered.  They did the same, last year. Notice that the Bios were arranged by "team", and not in alphabetical order, so people would know what the "Board team" was.

The room was full of people who supported Brett and Danil in the East!   The others, Julio, Miguel, Ronny, Leo and their families were in the lobby.  No other people supported them in person!  Where were all of the people who voted for them?!!!  They never showed up for any meetings during the year, either!

Many votes got disqualified.  I don't know why, yet.  I need to audit the election and look at the material.  Many people voted only for Brett, instead of Brett and Danil.  We needed both on the East.

When there is no transparency on the Board (as in past years), we can have this:  https://hg-law.com/2014/01/24/former-hallandale-condo-manager-gets-10-year-sentence-in-kickback-scheme/

Let's act ASAP.  We cannot leave our 400 Sunny Isles on the hands of unqualified people, to say the least.  These people let FSR management run our building.  FSR watches for their own interests with their vendors. No transparency = fraud.

Many thanks to those who voted!

PS:  The Attorney didn't know our Bylaws for elections.  He didn't allow Brett to be nominated as Officer on the West, on the pretext that he was not a Director. That was wrong and it will be clarified and changed. 

ELECTIONS and ANNUAL MEETING November 21, 2023

Dear Associations Members, please VOTE to change the Boards.  See the Election and Administration issues below, that warrant an immediate change.  

East Association members:  Vote for Danil and Brett ONLY.  

West Association members:  Vote for Jacob and Tina ONLY

       Do not give out a third vote, or the Master will not change.  Only these candidates are committed to a significant change on the Master Board, where most decisions are made.   You vote for Directors, not officers.  Directors elect the Presidents, who in turn, form the Master Board.  It's critical to have a majority on the East Board, as the President of the East appoints 4 out of 7 directors on the Master Board.

      If you own in an LLC, or other legal entity, please send a Voting Certificate to the Management Office.  The owners of the company must appoint a Voting Representative, to vote on the company behalf.   Your VC is just as important as your vote!  Your vote is not valid without a VC!

     If you vote by paper ballot, please make sure you follow the instructions!  Fill out all lines on the outside envelpe.  Seal the small envelope, and place it inside the big one.  

 Election issues:  (see below Administration Issues!)

1. The onsite Manager, asked owners to vote, or support the current Board!  why is Management influencing our Elections?  FSResidential operates with a lot of Conflict of Interest here at 400 Sunny Isles.  see below.  FSR has no ownership interest here.  It might not be illegal to influence, but it's certainly NOT ethical.   If the President or Management did any favors for you, with 400SI assets or services, while asking you to support him or the existing Board, this is NOT OK, and should have been a 

2. The President, other select Directors, and Management, refused to organize Meet and Greet meeting with the Associations Members and the Candidates for the 2023 Elections, despite my requests as a Director and Secretary.    The President prefered to host his own private event, to campaign, denying all the other candidates a fair and equal venue, to introduce themselves to the membership.  Note that the President has access to all contact information, while denying access to the Secretaries of the Associations.  

3. Our Directors decided to change the voting system this year, despite ONR agreeing to match the price of Voting Portals, and despite ONR being a superior product; more importantly, despite having a significant number of owners onboarded, already

4. Voting Portals appears to not comply with with the law:  a Florida rule passed in 2016 that requires that the voter receive confirmations of voting, with the specific candidates chosen.  The Association decided to go forward with the Elections, nevertheless.  Major law firms in the area, agreed that the confirmation MUST include the choices of candidates.   Why is this important?  Because only with this confirmation, you can chanllenge VP if they didn't register your choices correctly.

5. Some of our owners are still not receiving their US mailings, with the paper ballots, for the Elections/Annual meeting.   Last year, more than 50% of the mailing addresses were so altered, that the mail got returned.  Management "sat" on this returned mail, and did nothing, mailing after mailing, year after year.  I discovered this issue, brought it up to Attorney (different last year) attention, and Election was postponed.  However, Board and Management issued a letter accusing  me for this action, and denying that the mailing addresses alteration was a cause returned mail.   I have more proof to support my claim.

6. Despite my point above, or because of it, this year I'm denied access to the mailing list.  Actually, despite being Secretary and Director on the East Board, and presumably being in charge of records as per Bylaws, the President and Management are denying me access to records.   I am being asked to submit Certified Letter for any request, just like any owner.   See 5) for further info

7. The Association, through its Attorney, President and Management, severely restricts access to records, starting in June 2023, to the point that no investigation can be reasonably done, to verify compliance with the Law.

ADMINISTRATION and MANAGEMENT ISSUES:

1.  No fair bidding process for our Contracts!  The selection of our AC Contractor was not done with a fair bidding process.   More details, by request.  Vendors are being replaced without knowledge of the Master Board.  

2. Our Management Contract does not disclose vendor revenue sharing.  There are no updates to the  contract, since FS took over.  Yet, FS is known in the industry to share revenue with the vendors!   This is a stark Conflict of interest.  

3. Our owners continue to complain about various issues with valet parking.  Despite issues with service and repeat thefts due to valet negligence, the Presidents, boards and Management, refuse to bring competitive bids from other vendors.   Is this possibly because First Class Parking, shares revenue with FS Affiliates or Subsidiaries?  

4. Access to Official Records:   severely restricted since June 2023 through new Rules and Regulations.   Also, in some cases, severely restricted against the Bylaws, and Florida Statutes, presenting legal risk to our Associations.

5. Master President is signing off on spending, that he undertook personally,  without approval from the Board!  Other Officers are available to sign off, but he went ahead and signed off, himself.

6. East, West and West Presidents went ahead with renewal of insurance, without consultation with the respective Boards!   USI, our insurance broker, is known in the industry, to share their commissions with FS Corp, or its Affiliates or Subsidiaries.  FSResidential is a subsidiary.    This is a Conflict of Interest that it's not disclosed to our Associations!   I raised this issue last year, and Management and Presidents agreed to have other brokers considered for this year.   That did not happen!

7.  Many of the New Rules and Regulations passed in June 2023, are not legally enforceable, thus raising the legal risk and potential spending for our Owners!  The legal spending for this year,  is 10 percent of the Budget, about $350k.   The budget for next year' legal spending was raised 5 times!   The Budget 2024 includes 150K for 558 legal spending.  Why?  The Lawsuit was settled before the adoption of the Budget. 

8. President decided unilaterally to close our Pool Bar.   Attorney letter was sent to the pool bar operator, at the request of the President, demanding closing in 30 days.  DBPR did NOT shut off the pool bar, as the President would want you to believe.   There were 14 inspections, late last year, most called anonymously (!!!), and all passed successfully!  The pool bar operator who operated the pool bar for years, with proper documentation, renewed the licenses for this year, and is ready to restart at any time!

9. Meeting after meeting, the Attendees are restricted from asking questions.  Last year, there were meeting when NO questions were allowed, period.  That was against the law.  I had to quote the law, and send numerous emails, to actually have Management and the Board, agree to allow our owners to ask questions or make comments.   Management Regional Director who conducts our meetings most of the time, continues to cut off people from asking questions, or cut then off from Zoom altogether.

10. Meeting after meeting, all, or almost all people who pay attention to the issues, and are present in the room or via zoom, criticize and oppose the President's and the Board (majority, not unanimous) decisions.  Hopefully, the owners who will vote for the President and his group (clear from the Bios formatting), will also start to attend our meetings, and see for themselves what the reality is; outside of the "President letters" where the President takes advantage of having exclusive access to "the microphone". The President had no problems making accusations, while not allowing me, as Director, the option to respond.   See the ridiculous accusation that I didn't join him in his effort to install portable AC equipment, against the law.  Or the other ridiculous accusation that I tried to sabotage the 558 proceedings.  

11.  As of 11/19/23, There were no confidential legal updates about the 558 Developer lawsuit, (or any kind of legal updates) given to the Directors of the East and West, even though East and West were plaintiffs in the lawsuit.  No updates given to some of the Directors on the Master either.  All of these required by law.    All updates were reserved to the Presidents, only!  How are the owners supposed to believe that 558 was resolved in our best interest, when Directors were excluded from the discussions!   The two Presidents of our Associations DO NOT understand the concept, that Officers, including the Presidents, RESPOND to the BOARDS!  not the other way around.   Basically, ONLY two people made the decision in our multimillion dollar lawsuit.  As of November 19, NO update was given to the community, even though the details of the settlement MUST be given to the owners.   The lawsuit was settled on October 30th!   

12. How are our Owners supposed to believe that the 558 was settled in our best interest, when Management was a key player in this process.  This Management company continues to work with Developers to obtain new contracts!  This is Conflict of Interest from the start!   Management replaced our 558 lawyer about two years ago, when we were close to a settlement, with no satisfactory explanation.  

13. Our Owners think that a group of people is representing them on the Boards.  This is not the case.  Only the President of East/Master (same person), and President of the West, make all decisions, ultimately!   We need a better, more democratic interpretation of our Bylaws.  Our Bylaws are already providing for a more democratic Administration.  The Management and Attorney contracts must be modified ASAP:  this allows for abuse.  We can't have only the President as point person, and only person who can give directions.   Otherwise, we are all hostages in our own homes, as it's the case right now.  

14. Management went so far as to schedule the Residential Budget meetings, at the same date and time as the Marina Budget meeting.... at 10am!  We never had meetings at 10m.  Waiting to find out the timing of the Marina meeting, cost the Associations, one day delay in noticing the meetings via USMail.  The FS Regional Director "misstated" that the mailings were sent with 14 day notice, as required by Law.  I sent complaints to DBPR:  2023-007380.  Reply after 9 months: "insufficient basis to prosecute violation".    It didn't matter that one day delay, meant refusing the chance for attendance to the members, with dual membership: Residential and Marina

15. The deposit to the AC vendor, Airstron, for our AC replacement project, was paid in July.  The notice of selection of this vendor was sent out in October!  and without competitive bidding.  Previously, in June, the 4 residential directors chose Novos Electro Mechanical, at a Board of Directors meeting.  The switch to Airstron was done quietly, (no BOD meeting, no new bidding)  with no notice to the rest of the 5 Directors on Master, East and West.

16. The President continued with the Marina lawsuit, despite Master Board decision in August.   He recalled two Directors, and proceeded with the Lawsuit without another Master Board vote!

_____________________________________________________________________________________

LAST YEAR:

 Effective October 20th, the president installed two Board Directors who went on to vote for his agenda against the pool bar and the marina.  The Board members he recalled, did not agree with him and questioned his reasons and actions.  

       Please stayed tunes for updates, after October 20 Board Meeting.   

       Be in touch to find out what the NEW BOARD will  be after this meeting.  Yes, shocking, as we are only 3 months after election. 

ELECTION 2022 was influenced by Management.  The organization was poor, and inefficient, to say the least.   In the last few days of voting period, Management staff reached out to people and asked them to vote for 3 specific candidates for both East and West.  Those included all the previous long time board members.  

Timelines and deadlines are as per Property Manager emails.  If you did not receive their emails with information about election, contact the Office.

      I got this in the mail last week.  Let's not let this happen to us!  We need a transparent Board, and we need time limits for Board Members.  Read "The Problem" at www.soflopropertyowners.com
