Open Letter to Steve Cloobeck, Diamond Resorts International CEO

They do it by refusing to allow the owner's communication with each other. They dictate the vote a block of votes "in the best interest of" the owners in the trust. They put their employees (or relatives of employees) on the ballot. With the owners unable to coordinate their efforts, the votes are split between too many TRUE owners on the ballot and, oh the surprise of it all, DRI remains in control of the boards. They then are free to raise fees at will as the DRI employees continue to vote IN FAVOR of all increases. Oh, and did it get mentioned that the DRI employees NEVER recuse themselves when there SHOULD be what any reasonable individual would describe as a "conflict of interest"? Look at the budget. Huge fees straight to Las Vegas!
