Who To Contact

Some neighbors have concerns about Grand Firs that need to be addressed but don't know who to contact. Until the HOA is turned over to our neighborhood, the person to contact is Jim Seldon. His email address is jimse@johnlscott.com and his phone number is 253-539-2217.

(***UPDATE 3/31/09***) An email address has been set up by Jim Seldon specifically for Grand Firs inquiries and concerns: grandfirsowners@aol.com)

Last year Jim at least gave the impression that he might care a little, this year he has been absolutely unresponsive. I sent 3 emails and left 2 messages, but all have been ignored.

I did hear that he has actually responded, so, now might be the time to re-send some of our concerns.

Clearly Grand Firs has turned out to be not so Grand. Yes, the economy/housing market have significantly and negatively impacted our community, but so has the lack of leadership of Jim Seldon and our so called "HOA". I too have attempted to contact Jim Seldon, but to no avail.

At this point, the future of our community, our safety, our families and our investments lie in the hands of a "HOA" that is essentially non-existent. Is there any CC&R that hasn't been broken, or better yet, is there one that has been enforced?

Empty lots have turned into rock and weed pits, builders are permitted to leave houses in an unfinished condition for 2+ years and they are allowed to rent their homes, all the while taking no responsibility for ensuring that covenants are enforced.

To make matters worse:

I know that a request was made to the HOA to have ecology blocks placed in the road to prevent traffic, etc... from entering phase III. The response to this request was that "home building would begin shortly" and that was last August. Since then, my family has got to witness drug deals, window steaming sessions, trash dumping, and an occasional abandoned vehicle.

I believe it is time for Jim or the HOA to call a meeting of our community to not only discuss current homeowner concerns, but future plans for our development. If there is any hope for our community to flourish, we need to address these issues before it is too late.

Sent another email to Jim Seldon yesterday listing several of our complaints/concerns. I'll let you know if/when I get any sort of response.
