Understanding the People Who Make Your Condo A Home
November 16, 2025
Did you know that in high-rise condo associations, two teams of employees work every day, and they are hired in two distinct ways?The EMPLOYEES (door staff, maintenance, receiving room) work straight for you, the owners. The CONTRACTORS (property manager, Chief Engineer, and office team) work for an external property management company. It’s a key distinction, but they all share one goal: keeping the building running smoothly and effectively.
Board Decision Authorizes Vengeance
November 2, 2025
The HOA board just authorized spending community resources to investigate a personal grievance involving the board president’s private correspondence. Not a single board member could explain what the Association would gain. Their justifications revealed something more troubling: an addiction to revenge masquerading as governance.
Association Refuses to Explain Election “Fraud” Email
October 10, 2025
After a formal legal request for documentation about the September 19th “fraud” email sent during active voting, the Association has refused to provide any records explaining who authorized the message or how the Election Committee was involved. Their response included a carefully worded statement about contacting Committee members in October, but conspicuously avoided confirming whether those members actually participated in the fraud investigation or authorized the original email.

On Sep 19, 2025, during active owner voting, an official email claimed the 175 E. Delaware Place HOA Elections Committee found alleged fraud.

September 28, 2025
The 175 E. Delaware Pl HOA election faces serious legal risk because HOA President Scott Timmerman upheld a candidate’s disqualification based only on management’s claim they “never received” her email, despite her proof the server accepted it.
When Leaders Refuse To Answer Questions, Owners Lose Their Voice
August 24, 2025
175 E. Delaware Pl HOA President, Scott Timmerman, has failed to respond to my invitation to a town-hall style public debate. Instead, he continues to send owners replies that substitute a direct conversation with unrelated talking points, leaving owners without an open, two-way public conversation about the issues shaping our building.
Let’s Debate
August 18, 2025
As a co-owner of unit 7908 at 175 E. Delaware Pl, I’m deeply concerned about the direction our Association is heading. Decisions seem to be made by a select few, with little regard for the legal and financial risks those choices create for all of us.

The debate would allow owners to ask direct questions and get transparent answers from both of us before the upcoming board election because owners deserve to be informed and confident in the decisions being made on their behalf.

Technology Committee Chair Jacob Lopata responded to my analysis of the $1.3 million cable contract with vague accusations of “distortions and demonstrable falsehoods” while failing to identify a single specific error.
