Ex-condo association president, 82, arrested on embezzlement charges in West Palm Beach




By Aleese Kopf


Palm Beach Post Staff Writer


A former condominium association president was arrested Thursday and charged with allegedly embezzling about $22,500 in association funds to pay for a long-distance affair.

Representatives of the Norwich K Condominium Association reported former President and Treasurer Alan Kaplan, 82, of West Palm Beach, to police after an audit of the association’s bank accounts, according to the police report.

After searching the association’s accounts and Kaplan’s personal accounts, a Palm Beach County Sheriff’s officer discovered that Kaplan is alleged to have stolen $22,580 from 2011 to 2013.

Kaplan told police he was in debt and needed the money to supplement his income and finance an affair with his New York lover, the report said.

He was charged with grand theft and booked into the Palm Beach County Jail Thursday night. He was released Friday afternoon after posting $5,000 bond.

MALCONTENT ATTEMPT TO PANIC THE DELEGATES OVER NON-EXISTENT MONEY FEARS. - UCO VP MAGIC SOLUTION - "KILL WI-FI"

-

Today's Delegate Assembly was treated to Mr. Ed attempting to panic-monger the Delegates about money. He has been at the same old "pop-stand" for 4 years. He was wrong then, he continues to be wrong now. ALL bills are paid and being paid timely; Reserves are being slowly built up!

-

"Come to my meeting" he bellowed, I who have no responsibility for anything UCO, and who is elected to nothing UCO; has the answers to everything, so, come to his meeting and the magic formula will be revealed.

-

Earlier in the meeting he attempted to lecture a PBSO Captain about how to investigate Cyber-Terrorism. An absolute joke!

-

VP Ziccardy of course had the answer to our non-existent money problem - wait for it folks - "Kill Wi-Fi"! Of course, the fact that robust Campus wide Wi-Fi would save many of our unit owners $30.00 - $50.00 dollars per month; completely escapes our "dump Dave" VP, you tell them Marcia, but please try getting the facts first about the huge value-added vector that Wi-Fi would bring to CV.

-

Ed, you, your acolytes and sycophants lost the election, get over it!

UCO is NOT a condo association

Again, UCO is NOT a condo association governed by Chapter 718 of the Florida Statutes.

Any reserves UCO wants to have are ultimately decided by the UCO delegates.

Do not be deceived or misled by false statements on other nitwit blogs.

There is only a UCO budget reserve shortfall--we Delegates said YES to it!

Please see below from UCO Treasurer O'Brien's report in June 2014.

David Israel and Ed Black did NOT cause ANY shortfall. We UCO delegates voted the reserves we have. DO NOT be fooled by other crazy and deceptive blogs or pool side rumors.

From the UCO Treasurer’s Report

At June 30, 2014, the reserves aggregate $554,375 and are supported by cash in the bank. The UCO reserves as recorded were always supported by cash in the bank accounts.

The December 31, 2013 draft report of the UCO audit was released on May 1, 2013. In this report, it is stated that the aggregate amount of reserves at Dec. 21, 2013 amounted to $423,872.

The estimated underfunded reserve at December 31, 2014 is expected to be $1, 152,561

This is due to inadequate funding in the current and prior years. Examples of this are as follows:

• During the 2013 Budget process, the Delegate Assembly approved reserves for 2013 of $385,915, although $456,061 was required per the audit report. This amounts to a shortfall of $70, 146.

• Similarly, during the 2014 process, the Delegate Assembly approved reserves for 2014 in the amount of $291,000 although the auditor's suggested a required amount of $493,440 . This amounts to an added shortfall of $202,400 .

• A recent review of the aggregated UCO reserve requirements has been completed in preparation for the upcoming 2015 UCO Budget. The result of the review disclosed a net shortfall in the aggregate reserves at December 31, 2013 in the amount of $715,711

FS 718 requires that adequacy of reserves be reviewed and maintained.

WON'T YOU BE MY NEIGHBOR! SEE GIANT BANNERS ON MY CONDO WALL! AND PUT ME AND MY FRIENDS ON YOUR COMMITTEES

After the June 6, 2014 Delegate Assembly, I pulled up a copy of Robert's Rules of Order:

 ( http://www.northlakesacademy.org/index.php/download_file/view_inline/492/ )

 It is 400 pages long, and guess what; there is not one mention of "Good and Welfare". The last 3 minutes of the video is extracted below, and is anything but good or in our unit owners welfare. The performance speaks for itself, as the "star" attempts to explain a law suit brought by two other Residents. Olga of course is not an Attorney, nor is she a plaintiff in the litigation.

Hence, she was clearly out of order, good or otherwise. 

-

Robert's Rules speaks of something called "for the good of the order" as follows:
- 

"Some organizations take time right before adjournment for the “good of the order.” This segment allows members to give suggestions for improvement or to give compliments concerning the work of the organization. Usually business is not brought up during this portion of the meeting. Any ideas for new business that come from this segment are brought up at another meeting. However, if something urgent is brought to the attention of the members, a member can present it as a main motion during this segment. Until someone moves to adjourn the meeting, members can bring forward business."

-

Note that there is nothing about playing Attorney and ranting about other peoples lawsuits, nor, a single word about blatantly slandering the Chair. In case you missed the show, following is the last 3 minutes of the performance:

Since Olga likes to pontificate on other peoples lawsuits, what would she have to say about the lawsuit that is clearly justified by her public slander upon me in this video??? Don you are right, "you can't make this stuff up"

Medicare Advantage Cuts

Because people cannot afford health care they are reducing benefits #$%^&*

"The latest cuts are the consequence of a slowdown in the overall growth of Medicare spending — some of it owing to reduced utilization of medical services as a result of the slack economy. The Medicare program recently told the private plans that, since per capita costs are trending lower than prior estimates, the feds are now assuming that Medicare Advantage will take another cut in 2015, on top of existing reductions."

Please email and call your US Senator and Congress for help.

THE REPORTER WOULD LIKE YOUR FEEDBACK . . .

on the following subjects:

The VA Hospital in West Palm Beach: By any of you who have had personal experience with the hospital and doctors there—has the service been good or lacking in your opinion? Please specify. Your suggestions for how it could be improved, if any?

Smoking: Residents often gather under the portico when going in and out of the Clubhouse. At present smoking is allowed here on the north side. Some residents feel smoking should not be allowed under the portico at all. Do you agree or disagree? Can you suggest another place within a reasonable distance for smokers to congregate?

Please let us know at the UCO Reporter, preferably by e-mail; otherwise, by dropping off or mailing a note, or by talking to a staff member. We need your name and address, etc., so  we know you are in fact a CV resident, but you can request that your response be "Anonymous" if it is published.
