Many committee members and other homeowners have checked with their mortgagees. No <br />mortgagee thus far has reported that the Association has been in contact with them regarding their <br />required permission. This is the Board's fmal notification of its violations of the above referenced <br />Covenants, Bylaws and Articles of Incorporation. The Board was previously notified of these violations, <br />amongst others, in the Bergquists' letter of August 4, 1997. The Board is hereby further notified that it <br />remains in violation of the above referenced docuxnents on the additional counts contained in said letter of <br />8/4/97, as well as the State Statutes violations it was notified of in that same conespondence. The <br />Board's 9/25/97 written response (copy enclosed) to that 8/4/971etter did not address its many Covenant <br />breaches, but rebutted each allegation with out of context quotes from other (non-governing) documents. <br />(See paragraph 3 of this page). Several items enumerated in said letter were ignored completely. The <br />Board's failure to comply with all portions of all the legal documents that control its actions will result in <br />the immediate commencement of litigation against the Board by the Members of the Association in <br />accordance with BLOA Covenants, Article IX, Section 1 and Colorado State Statute No. 38-33.3-123. <br />A contingent of Members of the Association will be visiting the offices of Blue Lake Owners Association <br />on March 31S`, 1998 at 2:00 PM, with recording devices. Pursuant to Article VIII, Section 4 and Article <br />IX, Section 1 of the Declaration, the following documents are to be made available at that time for <br />inspection and/or counting by selected contingency representatives: <br />1. Written proof of conveyance of all Water Rights from Vantex to BLOA. <br />2. The original Written Permission slips of at least 235 Members of the Association <br />approving the borrowing of money encumbering our common property (Please note — <br />we have "Revocation of Permission" slips in our possession, so we suggest a healthy <br />margin for error) <br />3. The 350 written permissions of the first mortgagees of lots. <br />4. The total count of homeowners present physically and by proxy at the Annual Meeting <br />of BLOA held in October, 1997 and the original ballots and proxies collected before and <br />during the Special Meeting of the iVlembership that was called by the Board for, and <br />that took place on, 12/4/97. <br />5. Legal documents showing that at least $300,000.00 has been raised through alternative <br />funding. <br />6. A copy of the Colorado Water Conservation Board's final loan approval and written <br />authority from same for access to the proceeds thereof. <br />7. A copy of Mid Valley Metro District's written approval. <br />1 All cites of Convenant Articles and Sections in this letter are those used in Filing II. <br />CWCB — 3/23/98 - Page 4 <br />
