15 candidates for Hyatt Pinon Pointe HOA BOD?

[cfabar1]

You should try again! We need owners to truly represent ownership, not the big bad scary developers.... our interests are not the same!!!!

Thanks for the vote of confidence, FYI Dwight(president) and Chuck are both owners and are working for the homeowners

Reviving this post again, as ballots went out for 2021 elections. There are 11 on the slate this year (down from the 15 last year) for 5 spots.

I'd recommend Dwight S. Kadar and Chuck Armbruster (incumbents) again, as they are truly independent owners. Not voting for the other two incumbents as they are listed as working for VAC but I am sure Marriott is lining up their voting block to back them (there is another VAC/HVO employee also running in addition to the two incumbents). Also of note is that I see Bill Gabrielli, the Timeshare real estate agent on the list of candidates -- not sure that I want a timeshare broker making board level decisions but others may have a different view...

Anyone from TUG running for Pinon Pointe that is independent of VAC? I'd like to consider others as well.

Ah, interesting! Bill Gabrielli's been so good to our family in getting us good deals on Hyatt timeshares including our two at PP. With his straightforward honest manner it is hard to believe he was a Hyatt sales rep before breaking out on his own - our votes will go to him.

I agree and we voted for him along with other non-Hyatt/MVC people, including those referenced by @sjsharkie. We will be on site that day, so I may attend the meeting. That would be a first for me.

Best regards.

I have run for the board many times, Dwight and Chuck are the only owners on board and they do a great job. After that the votes are stacked. Don't think Hyatt(Marriot) will want to lose majority.
Not wasting my time any more.........I started paying dues at $800 some 8 years ago and now $1350........went up over $100 in one year!

Agree with voting for Dwight Kadar and Chuck Armbruster - I'd also add Bill Gabrielli to the list of recommended.

Incumbents typically get re-elected - so odds are that Trosset and Winston (that are VAC/HVO employees) will continue to be on the Board. Adding one more VAC/HVO individual on the Board will allow VAC/HVO to control the Pinon Pointe Board.

The ballot allows each owner/voter the authority to "Grant" or "Withhold" to Proxy Holder. Do not Grant Authority.

What day is election meeting?

I am in Sedona.....I have ran 3 times....not doing it again......Hyatt/Marriott has enough votes to be sure they don't loose majority.
Chuck and Dwight are independent owners, Bill Gabrielle is also an owner and a very knowledge candidate.
Even if every current vacationer in Sedona submitted a vote, it is stacked.
If anyone wants to meet or discuss....leave your number, and desired time to call

Sedona BOD election is ongoing, ballots went out by email yesterday. 7 candidates for 5 positions.

From what I can see in their bios, Marriott currently controls the HOA with 3 members (Doepke, Trosset, and Winston).

Non-Marriott candidates/owners are:
Armbruster (Incumbent)
Chaki
Knapp
Kadar (Incumbent/President).

Going to cast my votes for the non-owners.
