REALLY - PUTTING THINGS INTO PERSPECTIVE!
As a fellow unit owner, you have recently received correspondence put together by Keefe & Associates and recent letters from the Geneva National Community Association about a lawsuit which will have, according to those publishing this information, dire consequences for all unit owners in Geneva National. This website has been assembled to give you essential facts pertaining to the current litigation. We appreciate you taking the time to review it. THANK YOU!
WHAT IS OUR MOTIVATION & GOAL?
The motivation of GNCPO and the three plaintiffs in this lawsuit is simple: we desire for the residential unit owners to have a meaningful role in governing Geneva National now that over 700 units have sold and 17 years have passed. We desire that the unit owners have a say when the Covenants and Restrictions are amended. It is our desire that the unit owners determine, by vote of the unit owners, what future amenities are desired at Geneva National and how they are going to be financed.
It is the goal of our organization to have Geneva National’s unit owners’ rights determined in accordance with the Wisconsin Condominium Law, rather than a cleverly drafted document prepared by the initial developers. We believe this was the intent of the Wisconsin legislature and Governor when the Condominium Act and the amendments thereto were passed. As the Attorney General’s opinion concluded, “both the rules of construction included in the chapter which calls for the statutes to take precedence over conflicting condominium instruments, (and) the public policy evidenced by the statutes, points toward the invalidity of restrictive covenants that extend declarant control over condominium associations.”
