March 2018 Meeting Minutes
March 13, 2018
Opening:
Meeting began at 7:03pm
Attendance includes: Sandy Landau, Paul Brooks, Jessie Hayles, Don Roberts, Vanessa King, Steve Chess
Guests: Michael and Rayna Shaw, Crystal Page
Concern:
For the sake and courtesy of their time, Mr. and Mrs. Shaw’s concern was addressed first. SWPOA records indicate that their property (15824 E. 76th Street KCMO, LOT #96) is several years delinquent in paying annual dues, and thus notification was sent to them. According to their records, they report having signed a joinder document in 2012, and shortly later was determined to have incorrect information on it. When approached to re-sign a corrected document, they deny signing the updated joinder. However, Jackson County records has a signed copy of a joinder document from 2012 that was notarized by Thomas Degenhardt. Mr. and Mrs. Shaw state this is not the document they signed and that it appears the pages may have been mismatched for filing purposes. They state that Tom Degenhardt was not present at the time they signed the original, incorrect joinder document.
Jackson County records show that a lien was filed against their property on 12/27/2012, but dates on filed paperwork are inconsistent.
Plan agreed upon by the board: Will attempt contact Thomas Degenhardt to see if he has notary records of proof whether he was present for the original signature from 2012. If he is unable to provide this information, then SWPOA will not hold the Shaw’s accountable for the $2,000 in delinquent dues. They agree to sign a correct joinder, if necessary. Don agrees to contact Tom Degenhardt.
