Next Steps

Resolution before escalation

The community expects transparency, accountability, planning, safety, and measurable action. Resolution remains preferable to escalation. The process is documented so additional options can be evaluated if resolution cannot be achieved. No particular legal action is assumed.

1. Document

Collect road conditions, photographs, video, correspondence, financial records, and governing documents.

2. Verify

Separate documented facts from reports, assumptions, and unresolved questions.

3. Identify Gaps

Determine what information is still required before a complete picture can be supported.

4. Request Transparency

Seek missing financial, maintenance, ownership, and operational information.

5. Formal Communication

Clearly document concerns, requested information, desired corrective actions, and reasonable response periods.

6. Establish a Funded Road Plan

Seek a multi-year plan covering safety, deferred maintenance, routine maintenance, priorities, costs, funding, and timelines.

7. Measure Execution

Track commitments against actual work performed.

8. Independent Professional / Legal Review

Obtain appropriate independent review of the ownership chain, successor relationships, deed restrictions, assessment and collection authority, financial records, documented conditions, notice questions, and available options. Litigation is not predetermined.

9. Evaluate Next Steps

Evaluate recommendations and available remedies based on evidence and professional advice.

10. Escalate if Necessary

If transparency, planning, and reasonable corrective action cannot be achieved, evaluate appropriate formal remedies. No single outcome is assumed.

What we are asking for

A documented, funded, measurable road plan

The steps above are the process. This is the written plan we want that process to produce.

1. Current condition assessment

Condition of each road, based on documented evidence rather than a single community-wide label.

2. Immediate safety work

Items requiring near-term remediation, identified from verified records and field confirmation.

3. Deferred maintenance inventory

Known outstanding work that has accumulated over time.

4. Prioritization

How projects will be ranked.

5. Cost estimates

Expected cost of each major project.

6. Funding

Available funds and expected future revenue.

7. Delinquency strategy

How unpaid assessments will be addressed, without publishing individual accounts.

8. Multi-year work plan

Expected work by year.

9. Maintenance standards

What residents should reasonably expect.

10. Reporting

How progress and financial performance will be communicated.

11. Accountability

Who is responsible for executing each component.

12. Timeline

Target dates and milestones.
