i heard that the dues for next season are going down 150 dollars
who is the idiot who thought of that . first they tell us that they need to raise the dues so we can do the 8 year plan. what happened to that. now dues are going down 150 dollars that times 1600 sites is 240000 dollars.
then they want to fix the laundry room that only a hand full of people use. what next? i am so shocked at this new and improved board of directors they were going to change everything just get rid of the old bod and see what can happen i see that a lot is happening and not for the good of laca may god bless them the need it

anon -- i think they feel that with the difficult financial situation it would be good to give everyone 3 tanks of gas for their car so they can get to la -- really i think it was a way to help everyone a little --- but then they should reduce overall costs at la to make up for the shortfall or if we don't need $ 250K to operate then make the reduction permanent

  1. I agree if they don't need the $150 now then make the reduction permanent until it is needed. The original raise of the dues last year was entirely to high and did not make fiscal sense.

  2. Hate to say it, but this new BOD seems to be raiding the 8 year plan, could the temporary reduction have anything to do with who is running for re-election next year? Smells of the same politics that got us in this mess in the past. We do need this money in the budget, the small surplus we had should have been used to reduce the principle of the sewer loan as was stated by budget committee members at the meeting Saturday. Not only did they use that but where are they taking the rest of the money from to fill the gap to do necessary work?

  3. Very interesting, maybe the increase was NOT necessary to begin with and people finaly realized their multi year plan was a joke. First off, who made that decision?? Oh yes, the majority board members who can't make a decision on hiring a manager, and the previous manager who broke the bank.The person who is for a recall may be on the right track. Maybe we are paying close to $1k more than what is needed to run this place and maybe a major investigation of previous boards and manager is in line, and not by this board but by an audit firm and possibly law enforcement. There is entirely too high of a cash flow at LA that tighter reins should be tugged.

  4. in answer to the above comment we can not get by with 1k less we have major work that has to be done. do they realize that the electric is old and how many weekends are water ban on and you can not wash your trailer. with the old electricity there are a lot of us who loose power or have brown outs.do they realize since people have been going to town to complain about 12 wides they also complained about the elec. water and sewers. that now we have to get permits through the town . there permits takes longer to get and cost more money..the town would like to add taxes for our trailer. we need to get this work done. and we need the money that was budgeted for it. i dont think anyone is stealing because the treasure is suppose to have control over the checking account and the present treasure is honest has a good job and would not put his reg. job on the line. i wish this name calling and fighting would end and the board would get together for the good of the community. work out the problems and come to the table with plans for the good of L A C A IF WE ALL COULD WORK TOGETHER WHAT A WONDERFUL PLACE IT WOULD BE
