Update to Owners

Our Commitment

In May 2025, we held an election because Justin had failed to maintain our Maintenance Committee. We promised to continue the practices that have kept Sports Flyers Estates a wonderful place to live. Support changes only if approved by a full community vote — that’s basic democracy. Important: No community vote has been held in the last 2-1/2 years to change how the Maintenance Committee operates. Without such a vote, four people are now claiming to be the Board of two “mandatory” homeowners associations (HOAs) — we believe this is without legitimate authority to represent mandatory membership HOAs.

Summary of the Facts

Encourage Justin to return all assets (funds, records, Post Office Keys, etc.) to the SFE Maintenance Committee and to de-register his two illicit organizations. 

Justin Anderson speaks of facts, but provides much misinformation regarding the supposed "legitimacy" of his two organizations.

Fact: The developer had the opportunity to create the two HOAs in advance of the first sale of the tracts of land. He failed to do so. Alternatively, he had the chance to provide in the LURs the method by which the HOAs would come into existence, but he failed to do so. Consequently, any mandatory membership HOA formation will generally require a super-majority support of the property owners, not the actions of a few individuals.

Fact: Justin Anderson was nominated and subsequently elected to the position of SFE Maintenance Committee President in February 2023 for a two-year term that expired in February 2025.

Fact: The Maintenance Committee was created by the Developer and has existed since at least 1980.

Fact: There were never any nominations or elections for the position of Board of Directors Chairman or President of the soon-to-be-created SFE CIA and a SFE Phase II CIA. Justin Anderson apparently simply appointed himself to those roles without the knowledge or consent of the majority of the SFE Community. He was not even a property owner in the original SFE (Tracts 1-33).

Fact: Justin Anderson apparently appointed the SFE Maintenance Committee Vice President, Josie Richard, as Vice Chairman / Vice President of the soon-to-be-created SFE CIA and the SFE Phase II CIA without her knowledge, approval, or actual participation in the decision or the filings.

Fact: Justin Anderson et al filed documents registering his SFE CIA and the SFE Phase II CIA organizations with the State of Texas using Josie Richard as a Board of Directors Vice President / Vice Chairman of these organizations without her knowledge of this position or of these filings.

Fact: Justin Anderson et al filed his Articles of Incorporation of his SFE CIA and a SFE Phase II CIA organizations with the State of Texas, using Josie Richards as a Director of these organizations without her knowledge of this position or of these filings. These filings assert that the members of Justin's organization, presumptively ALL PROPERTY OWNERS, are financially liable for cost/expenses/lawsuits and liabilities that may evolve from Justin’s and the Board of Directors’ actions (illicit or otherwise). By Justin's assertion, all property owners at the SFE dual airports will be financially responsible for his legal misadventures, of which there are so very many.

Fact: Justin Anderson asserted in multiple emails that the organizational Bylaws would be reviewed and voted on by the community. He apparently changed his mind after a late 2024 Bylaws review meeting, made modifications to the draft Bylaws that extended his self-nominated/elected Chairman's term by another year, and filed his Bylaws for his two organizations in January 2025, one month before his Maintenance Committee term as President was to have expired in February 2025. He also denied that he had said that they would be voted on, but his multiple emails prove otherwise.

Fact: Justin Anderson, in his multiple filings, asserts that he was "duly elected" and is authorized to make such filings with the State of Texas and with the Waller County clerk. When did the nomination for his Board of Directors position take place, and when were the elections? It appears that he simply assigned himself to the position without any voting participation of the SFE communities.

Fact: At the February 2025 meeting, Justin's term as President of the Maintenance Committee expired. He announced that his Bylaws permitted him to continue on the Board of Directors of his newly created organizations for another year. His Bylaws provide that Removal would require a 75% vote of all property owners. It was at this meeting that it became evident that Justin et al had abandoned the organization that he had previously been elected to lead, and was now operating under his Bylaws that he drafted and filed without community approval.

Fact: Justin Anderson et al transferred financial assets, records, and Post Office Box access to his new organizations, and he refuses to return them to the reactivated SFE Maintenance Committee, an organization that he was the President of and which he apparently disbanded/abandoned without the knowledge or support of the majority of SFE property owners.

Fact: Using the Texas Property Code provisions providing for the election of new HOA/CIA/POA officers when the existing officers fail to have the required Annual Meeting, the Maintenance Committee was re-activated through a process that achieved a super-majority support from SFE and from SFE Phase II.

Fact: Justin Anderson et al continue to refuse the return of assets that were taken from the Maintenance Committee, asserting that the Maintenance Organization, created by the Developer and in existence since 1980, 45 years, was "not legal." Such Maintenance organizations, particularly those with the responsibility of managing reciprocal-type of easements, do not need to be "legal" (registered, incorporated). They are expected to be responsible and transparent.

Fact: Justin Anderson's assertion that all SFE Property Owners are members of organizations that he created without their organizational participation, without their organizational review, without their vote to adopt, and without their consent ... is more than ridiculous; it is ludicrous.

Fact: Attorney David Kahne was engaged in 2024 and formally retained in 2025 to provide legal analysis and guidance regarding Justin Anderson’s actions. No funds from the SFE Maintenance Committee are being used for this representation. Mr. Kahne is a nationally recognized authority on Texas property and HOA law, holding an undergraduate degree from M.I.T. and a Law Degree from Harvard University. This case is of particular legal interest because it involves an individual who claims to have been “duly elected” to lead a mandatory-membership HOA—yet no record exists of any nomination or election process conducted in compliance with the Texas Property Code or with significant property owner participation.

Fact: A recent survey, suggested by Attorney David Kahne, of SFE property owners shows a clear super-majority of SFE and SFE Phase II property owners do not want these HOAs.

If Justin had just taken the time to review/understand:

A. The multiple deficiencies that exist in the Developer's original filings of LURs and Easements

B. The outcome of the 1984 lawsuit which the SFE Community filed lawsuits against three SFE property owners. The property owners prevailed in court, which financially "impoverished" the maintenance fund and destroyed many established friendships.

C. The evolution of the Maintenance Committee starting in 1980, more formalized with the Special Power of Attorney delegations in the 1990's, the reasonable attempt to create HOAs after the death of the Developer in the early 2000's, and the adoption of the draft Bylaws from 2005 for application by the Maintenance Committee after the HOA initiative failed to garner the necessary super-majority support.                

... perhaps all of the turmoil of the last two plus years could have been avoided.

The "Pandora's Box" associated with a nexus of the deficient LURs, the deficient Easement documents, and the non-discretionary (Land Use Restrictions and Easement enforcements) HOA oversight and control would be very destructive to the friendly and open aviation character of the SFE airports. Most would judge it to be best to return to "blue skies and fair weather."

No SFE Maintenance Funds are being used for Attorney involvement in pursuing the re-activation of the SFE Maintenance Committee; the return of assets, records, property; and the ultimate de-registration of the two recently "created" HOAs.

Please continue to support the return to familiar territory, the reactivated Maintenance Committee, and the “NO-HOA” stance at this time.
