2025-2026 Candidates

Hi all! I apologize for the radio silence, I just wanted to hop over here to do a quick little post. See, the team posted some opinions of our candidates on the Facebook page, and our social media team is now being pressured to delete the post because some of the candidates seem to think our opinions shouldn't be heard. Before this info is gone forever, I felt that I should archive it here.

This whole election cycle, in my honest opinion, has been a mess. So much so, that given the current board members' level of experience, I have heard questions as to whether this is deliberate. But more on that later.

Here are our takes on this year's candidates, whether we recommend them and why. These are genuine opinions from neighbors, and even if you don't agree with them, it is worth seeing from multiple points of view, as this helps make informed decisions.

A Letter to Our Neighbors, from Longtime Riverwood Homeowner Kim Wagner

Kim Wagner, Longtime Homeowner     Kim Wagner has lived in Riverwood for nearly 30 years, and in all that time, he has never been known to sit idly by when he has a concern. He does his best to stay informed on all aspects of Riverwood as a community, and does his best to keep his neighbors informed as well. As such, when he asked to share this letter he wrote to our neighbors, it was only logical. Riverwood residents have good memories when it comes to lawsuit details. They remember that the Krajenta et al vs. Riverwood Farms Chancery Court decision was reversed by the State of Tennessee Appellate Court. From Court Records below, the Tennessee Appellate Court assessed appeal costs to the Appellees as follows: Two of the Appellees listed above failed to collect enough votes in 2022 to hold their Board positions. Undaunted, they ( Tankson and Westphal ) will retry to regain their seats on November 16, 2023. I have been getting questions about who to vote for. Vote your con...

We Received Another Mass Email...

Image
We have another mass email, so buckle up and let's dive right in: For starters, it was sent from a very ambiguous-sounding  " riverwoodresident2023@gmail. com ," but this email address is reported to be owned and operated by resident David Donahue (although perhaps others have access to it, that part I'm not certain, but we have been informed that it is primarily David's). As per usual, I will add my thoughts in Blue to save on confusion, and leave David's words in their normal font. For starters, whoever provided Donahue with the mailing list he is using is possibly breaking the law, or at the bare minimum, is behaving entirely unethically. Aside from violating our neighbors' privacy, this is the email list from 2022's failed "get out the vote" initiative. Using the list for personal reasons is a gross misuse of HOA resources and a massive violation of privacy. In addition, in all of the conversations I have had with Donahue, I don't re...
