Mr. Sturm:

I can not let this disgraceful action you have undertaken to go unanswered. A few short weeks ago you responded to an invitation to have dinner at my home with my wife and Bob and Kay Frank.

We extended the invitation because we thought you were running as an independent candidate to demonstrate to the community that you had independent thoughts , and you wanted the freedom to draw your own conclusions free from the biased opinions of a “Slate” induced platform that is obviously hell bent on destroying Bob Frank’s reputation as a citizen, and a true leader who is not afraid to shine a light on the cover up of past events that have cost this association a great deal of money.

Now - you have shown your true colors by allowing your statement to be published only on the BLOG of David Berman who is the most notorious disgraced past Vice President in Sun City Anthem history.

During your visit at my home you reviewed only a few of the documents that I have archived that may (in the end), prove to be evidence of major misconduct of the board and some past members of the board of directors. You were also shown what I believe to be evidence of a scam involving the manipulation of data given the reserve specialist employed by this association by Jack Troia another “Unity Candidate.” As a direct result of this scam, 162 members of this association have suffered financially.

You met and talked with my neighbor who will be celebrating her 100^th birthday in May of this year. You also met the Treasurer of The Villa Group. The very same widowed lady that was chastised by Mike Dixon because she dared question Mike Dixon’s idiotic pronouncement that “Del Webb gave the Villas a GIFT”. You visited her home and even inspected some of the floor tile. All the while you professed to be considerate of our plight and seemed willing to work to shed light on the cover up of the actions of the past board members (like David Berman), who have affected this communities financial well being, and have engineered a “Unity” stranglehold on the free election process.

I hereby make this announcement that because of your calloused and uncaring attitude to discover the truth by adopting the “Unity” doctrine of “never looking back” I would never vote for you, and I ask that every one who considers the truth to be more important than politics to Vote Smart and vote for Bob Frank and Ron Morse - period.

Why would anyone waste their vote on any candidate who has no respect for their own good name and align them selves with a disgraced attorney? Now we find someone who claims to be an “Independent” candidate who runs to the “Unity” camp declaring that a bland statement like the following Quote;

“In short, Anthem Voice believes that Bob Frank, Ron Morse, and Barnett Sturm are the only independent candidates this year.”

Some how is derogatory? No - Barnett, there is more here than meets the eye. This is what YOU have destroyed by the statements you made on the disgraced attorneys BLOG.

You said on your campaign flyer Quote;

“My Goal is to apply my extensive career experience to ensuring efficient and transparent operations of our Homeowners Association.”

Sorry Barnett - I don’t see anything “transparent” about continuing the cover up. You might be able to regain some respect by announcing right now what your stand is on a forensic audit. That’s what the “Unity” candidates are afraid of.

Are you going to continue the cover up and let the reserves of this association go un-audited? Are you against uncovering what it REALLY cost the members of this community when Del Webb WAS ALLOWED to disobey Nevada Statutes by skipping the requirements of providing a well funded reserve study at the time of transition? Do you have the “Spine” to uncover what past board members like David Berman have cost us?

After reading your outrageous statement on the disgraced former attorneys BLOG, I think not. Have fun writing in David’s pigpen that he calls Anthem Journal. Of course I have been banned for some time, but even if I were allowed to, I have higher standards. You apparently do not.
