Screenshot archive of a forum thread posted by Shane Hill during the 2024 Edgewood HOA recall petition effort. The thread documents conversations, reserve-funding disputes, petition activity, and resident concerns regarding HOA governance and financial transparency within the Edgewood community in Citrus Heights, California.
In the opening post, Shane Hill describes canvassing the community for recall petition signatures and recounts a conversation with resident Sara Shadrick regarding discrepancies in the association’s reserve disclosures. According to the archived discussion, Sara allegedly acknowledged that reserve funding figures discussed publicly did not align with the reserve study calculations, which Shane Hill states reflected funding levels closer to approximately 14%.
The thread alleges that Sara warned Shane Hill he was “going to get into a lot of trouble” and suggested the HOA board had already contacted law enforcement regarding the recall effort. Shane Hill states he subsequently visited the Citrus Heights Police Department, where he says officers informed him there were no reports or active police matters involving him and that petitioning regarding matters of public interest was protected activity.
A second archived post references reserve study projections and includes screenshots from HOA communications discussing reserve balances, dues increases, and a proposed special assessment structure. Shane Hill alleges the association misrepresented its financial condition by several hundred thousand dollars and criticizes the board’s handling of reserve disclosures, governance practices, and homeowner communications.
The forum archive also includes references to the First Amendment right to petition, commentary regarding equitable conduct and HOA governance, and mention of an incident report filed with local law enforcement. Later entries identify the thread as part of the historical record of the 2024 community recall effort and state that the posts were preserved publicly for transparency regarding events occurring during that period.
