SCA Member and AnthemVOICE Founder Tim Stebbins advised the new, 2011 SCA Board Members at their special meeting on May 9, 2011 that the 2010 SCA Board was considered by the Nevada Real Estate Division to be the worst of Nevada’s 3,000 HOA Boards.

Tim Stebbins included other comments for the record/attached to the Minutes as quoted below:

“My name is Tim Stebbins, Arroyo Vista Village.  I will supply a copy of these remarks for inclusion in the minutes of this meeting.  I wish to address Agenda item V, election of officers.

I congratulate the 4 new members of our board and I wish all board members success over the coming year.

As you elect new officers for the next year, those officers and all other directors have a real opportunity to set a new direction for our community.

Nevada state officials have observed the just past board was the worst in the entire state – out of about 3,000 boards.  That is something we should all be ashamed of.

Even though we retain 3 members from that board I hope a new spirit of leadership will change both the operations and the image of our board into one of professionalism, competence and cooperation.

We seem to be off to a good start.  Mr. Terry has already taken it upon himself to attend some of the excellent training classes offered by the Ombudsman.  I believe this shows a sincere desire to learn what must be done to be a good director under the laws of Nevada and how to do it in a professional way. 

I congratulate Mr. Terry for his attitude and dedication.  Of course from now on Mr. Terry will be required to disclose his attendance in all future courses under NAC116.484.  I am sure he will be proud to do that.

I hope all board members will follow the lead of Mr. Terry and gain the benefits of professional training and guidance.

It is worthy to note there seems to be no record of the mandatory disclosure of attending any approved classes by any member of the just past board.  With apparently no interest in gaining professional guidance on how to be a good director that might be one of the reasons that board was so bad.

I offer this suggestion:  At every board meeting we have a presidents report, a managers report and member comment periods.  The agenda for every meeting could also include a directors comment period.

Any director could comment on anything they wish including attendance at approved classes (as required by NAC116.484), attendance at meetings of the Commission, attendance at meetings of the Henderson City Council, or any other meetings or activities of interest to our community along with any comments they desire about what they gained from that participation.

This is done at every meeting of the CICCH Commission with a Commissioners Comments agenda item.  I see no reason why this board should not follow their lead.  Everyone would benefit.”
