TODAY IN TRILOGY

CORONA WEATHER

✅ Next step is in the Board motion of 2.2.21

Next to happen regarding an official action to allow Cobblestone homeowners to participate in upcoming webinars (online meetings) to learn about the MOTUS Insurance earthquake coverage options is consideration by the TGMA Board to accept the motion of the Cobblestone Canyon Disaster Recovery Committee. This happens on Feb. 2, per the agenda above.

✅ What is the history of EQI for Trilogy Glen Ivy Cobblestone?

HISTORY OF EQI HERE   Was EQI for Cobblestone Canyon once prohibited by the community CC&Rs? How, when did this change? Who (alone) may now vote to add EQI? What is the history of EQI for Trilogy Glen Ivy Cobblestone?  ▶ The creator and author of TRILOPEDIA may attest to nearly a decade of residence (since November 2011) in Cobblestone Canyon as a first-time life experience living in a condominium.  Virtually from the beginning of the relocation to Trilogy Glen Ivy, the issue of disaster recovery for the community has been a common topic.  Perhaps this had something to do with the escrow documents that came with the condo purchase.  That is, the escrow papers expressly prohibited Cobblestone condo owners from the purchase of earthquake insurance for the individual units. Beginning in 2011 (perhaps before), the TGMA Board of Directors started a review of the earthquake insurance issue for Cobblestone Canyon.  Most of the study transpired within executive session and a decision to pu

✅ CEA EQI policies have these limits for condos

  What about the $100K maximum building coverage? What are the deductible choices? How is the deductible factored with a claim?   CEA EQI policies have these limits for condos  ▶ Any condo owner who visits the California Earthquake Authority quotation request page for earthquake coverage learns that the maximum value for condo EQI is $100,000.  Currently, that is less than one-third of the typical resale value of a smaller downstairs Cobblestone condo as of year-end 2020.  That may be a problem.  Although, given the rule that it may take 50% of the typical home value to reconstruct the unit, the CEA limits may not be out-of-bounds.  One thinks, however, that the arbitrary limits on condos may have something to do with risk management by the CEA. CEA EQI policies have these limits for condos COVERAGE OPTIONS FOR HOMEOWNERS CEA earthquake insurance for homeowners allows you to choose between two policies: purchase all of your coverages together under one deductible, or choose to have se

✅ For future disaster (if such happens) how will TGMA manage the reduilding, repair, or reconstruction issues?

  Will a major quake in the Temescal Valley create long delays in the arrival of assistance and recovery? May condo owners simply clear and clean their lots? What about the upstairs/downstairs choices? For future disaster (if such happens) how will TGMA manage trebuilding, repair, or reconstruction?  ▶ This question prompted the research and retention by TGMA of the former HARBRO Emergency Services & Restoration, recently merged with a company known as BluSky that provides commercial, industrial, governmental, residential, and multifamily restoration, renovation, environmental, and roofing services across the United States and Puerto Rico. With an emphasis on large projects, BluSky does not build things; but restores and rebuilds them. BluSky engaged employees bring experience and teamwork to anyone who owns or manages property, provides property insurance, or manages property insurance claims. Essentially, the first step by management after a disaster in the community is to check

✅ What does the “PHASES” designation of the CONDOS mean for the disaster recovery issue?

Image
  Is the “PHASES” designation of Cobblestone a method to limit risk to individual owners? For disaster recovery alone, are “PHASES” a plus or minus? Should Cobblestone vote to eliminate the “PHASES”?   The ‘phases’ designation of the condos  ▶ TGMA legal counsel informed TGMA and the Cobblestone Disaster Recovery Committee that the designation of the FIVE (5) PHASES is still in force because these had not been merged or eliminated by the developer, Shea Homes, when Cobblestone Canyon was completed and control passed to the homeowners association, TGMA. This merger of the Cobblestone Phases still is not done today, as of the writing and distribution of this document. In other words, these FIVE (5) PHASES will dictate how and when recovery management will occur. The “phases” designation of the condos AS AN EXAMPLE, if any damage (no matter how major) occurs to the common interest (exterior areas) of one or more units in PHASE 21 (approximately 42 units in each PHASE), then the obligatio

✅ Does the date January 17, 1994 still ring a bell today, why?

NORTHRIDGE STORY   How has the threat of a large, Northridge-type quake made Californians more favorable to EQI? What percentage of CA condo owners have EQI? What percentage of CA HOA owners have EQI? Does the date  January 17, 1994 still ring a bell today, why? ▶ This question prompted the research and retention by TGMA of the former HARBRO Emergency Services & Restoration, recently merged with a company known as BluSky that provides commercial, industrial, governmental, residential, and multifamily restoration, renovation, environmental, and roofing services across the United States and Puerto Rico. With an emphasis on large projects, BluSky does not build things; but restores and rebuilds them. BluSky engaged employees bring experience and teamwork to anyone who owns or manages property, provides property insurance, or manages property insurance claims. There are no guarantees of safety during earthquakes, but properly constructed and strengthened homes are far less likely to
