I am curious what everyone thinks the next step(s) should be. Obviously looking into the by laws and finding out if this vote they held is even legitimate. Not all members are on this page, so figuring out a way to have all of them be notified? Maybe the Pocono Record and the Poconos Times would like to do an in depth article on what's going on here. The hostile takeover, the deceit with construction bids and financial transparency, the lawsuits surrounding the man who is attempting to take over. Maybe they'd be able to at least get a statement out of him, since all we can get is his abrasive lawyer and fake accounts claiming to be a former dairy farmer. I think that might be the best way to get to the bottom of this

I own a timeshare in Florida. Capital Vacations has taken over. This year's annual meeting was canceled because there wasn't a quorum. I will not hear about anything until they send their annual newsletter in June, and tell how the board filled the empty positions because there wasn't a quorum and what the budget and plans are. Its all once a year. It's all according to the Rules and Regulations and Covenent. It's all legal. Nothing I can do.

I just want to state, I don't think 194725RR is John Oakes.
It's above a 94% certainty that it is. Go back and look at his comments throughout this post. It took a little research, but it's him. His syntax from public statements is spot on, and with what he has been pushing, it's to undermine the current staff/board and get folks to sell their deeds back.

FlorRidatraveler2007, You’ve got some great ideas and valuable points. It’s kind of funny to me that you think I’m John Oakes. Actually, I think you might be Tom Cruise. You kind of talk like him. Plus it seems you think this current mission might be impossible.

Classic deflection. Try and stay on topic. You have answered 0 questions. Just vague statement after vague statement, and having to do your taxes...which are publicly available for Poconos Park. Good luck with that! Hopefully you don't take it from us to pay that hefty bill. Or the bill to Fever Labs Inc.

-what is your plan for the timeshare community
- who are these 3 boardmembers and what are their professional backgrounds (Kerry, Berry and Heller) assuming none of them dropped out as well like Ryan and Eric (names might be wrong, but that's the names spoken in the board meeting)
- you opened up the construction on the units for bids...who won those bids? What companies?
- what, in detail, work is being done? From what owners saw from their walk through last week, it is incredibly underwhelming and looks like the beginning of another scam
- of the 906 deeds Bushkill PA LLC now has, how many are current on their dues and fees?

Those are some really good points and questions, Tom. I assume you typed them with one hand while hanging onto the outside of an airplane with the other? Honestly, I do get to write off a few hundred dollars of school supplies on my taxes. I hope John does good things for Eagle Village and its owners. People can say who they are, but people’s actions really tell the truth. I really don’t have anything substantial to contribute at this time due to being an actual school teacher and former farmer. I hope this quick dialogue brought some levity to the situation. I’ve got to get back to work.

I see two options. One is to contact an attorney to sue the BOD for failing to uphold their fiduciary obligations to owners. They failed to produce budgets, follow the budgets, and hold elections last year. They aligned themselves with an investor who has played his hand now in trying to take over the BOD. This puts you all in a bad position since his company can set the budget, special assess, and push more owners out over time with the goal of eventually being PAID to receive ownership of the property. Eagle Village may not have much value as a Timeshare but the land, clubhouse/pool, and existing structures do have value of course. A proper BOD would have looked at the balance sheet and at least offered the option of closing the operation and selling off the property. If John Oakes was able to obtain a majority stake this quickly the owners association could have accomplished the same. The sale would net each owner their fair share. Instead we are paying John Oakes to acquire the property in small slices. What a great deal for him.

The second option is two cross your fingers, hope for the best, and wait for the inevitable maintenance fee increases and special assessments to roll in. Worse yet is if his company is not successful and fails to pay contractors resulting in liens placed on the units.

I do hope it works out for you all but it will likely work out best for John Oakes.
