Last Friday these two trucks from the AEP showed up and took down the light pole on Richy's(706,608)property.(notice his "For Sale" sign) They cut the pole in half and pulled it up and were gone in fifteen minutes. The same day we received a bill for $6,000 from Cirro Energy for early termination of the contract on the light. Past HOA boards that were investor controlled took great liberties with our treasury. At one point eleven security lights, including five in front of Phase II, were put on our account when we have only five if you count the one at the road. Of course I protested vigorously at the time, but to no avail.
I'll start working tomorrow to resolve this issue. The main point being that this light was never on our property although the bill was sent to us and a board member, without board approval, locked into a contract until April 2013 on that light. Richy was given the option to transfer this light to his account to avoid removal, but he declined. I'm sure he will decline the bill too.
I'll visit with the Texas Public Utility Commission to see what they have to say. Cirro Energy has, in the past, been difficult to deal with.
