  Although the Shadow Ridge at Oak Park Homeowners Association did receive over $6,000,000 net from a construction defect lawsuit settlement in 1999, the proceeds vanished along with Reconstruction Specialists and many serious construction defects at Shadow Ridge are still ongoing and unremedied (you won't find that in your real estate disclosure statement). In addition, the current HOA board of directors, its property management company (Lordon Management), and general counsels (formerly Swedelson & Gottlieb, currently Richardson & Harman - Swedelson's former partners) engage on behalf of the Association in a heavy-handed game of turning homeowner-against-homeowner, trying to force the homeowners themselves to make common area repairs which are actually the responsibility of the HOA according to the CC&R's and Rules & Regulations. So not only are the homeowners being required to pay their monthly dues to the Association, plus their own personal insurance, they're also being forced by the Association to pay for common area repairs in order to make their homes even habitable.
