For the last two years, I have served as a member of the Johnson Ranch Board. I have been a proactive member of the board, working on the management company bid, the landscape bid, the landscape charter, the strategy team charter, the Fund Policy, and on the Landscape Committee. I have broad experience with a number of functions managed by the board. Professionally, I worked for 25 years for a $3 billion dollar-a-year federal power agency on budgeting, finance, information systems, and management analysis. I am passionate about working with and looking out for the interests of homeowners and being attentive to the best value for the HOA.
 
Board Committee Experience: Yes, I have served for the last 2 years as a member of the Johnson Ranch Board.  I have also served on other boards and committees, including the Johnson Ranch Landscape Committee (2 years), Johnson Ranch Strategy Team (3 years), the Rose Farm Management Committee (7 years), and the McLoughlin Memorial Association (3 years). For those entities, I have served as Treasurer, Vice Chair, and Chair.

My name is Lynn Hannon, and I am running for an open seat on the JR board. I have a BS degree in Business and an AS degree in Paralegal Studies. I worked in the legal field for 30 years prior to my retirement in 2019. I moved to JR in 2016 and have served on the board as an interim member in 2021. I feel the boards should be fair, just, and transparent for all homeowners and should continually have the homeowners and communities' best interests in mind at all times. Every person deserves to have a voice. I hope to be that voice for the unheard people as I serve on the JR board. I believe that a good board member listens closely to homeowners; understands both HOA and homeowners wants and needs; is openminded to change; is accessible; understands the board's responsibilities; is direct and honest and improves the communities' current standings and, furthermore worth and well-being.
 
Board Committee Experience: Yes, as an interim candidate in 2021.

I have enjoyed my career in Healthcare organizations for the past 25 years serving as Human Resources Director and Vice President of Human Resources. I semi-retired in 2010 and continued to work in HR Consulting roles as needed. Most recently, I worked in Phoenix for the Palazzo Senior Living Community and have helped them recruit and hire my replacements. I pride myself in being a good listener, strategic planner, and calming influence when employees have been upset in the workplace. I do understand budgeting and being held accountable. I believe I would be a good member of the Johnson Ranch Board of Directors because I thoroughly enjoy living here and watching the community grow. I look forward to helping our Board meet their goals and to be a voice for community members.
 
Board Committee Experience: Yes, two in California and one in Laughlin, NV. I served as Secretary in Aliso Viejo, CA; Treasurer in Pittsburg, CA; and Vice president in Laughlin, NV

THEODORE LEACH
Community Member for nine years. 
 
My name is Ted Leach. I am 65 years old. I am married to my wife, who I fell in love with 32 years ago. I have 3 children and 6 grandchildren. I am a US Navy Veteran. I worked for a high-profile, national bank for 19 years, primarily in security equipment and building construction. I am currently retired and work part-time at our new Home Depot. In my career with the bank, I was involved in contract negotiations, securing assets, amenity planning, and other skills that I think will be useful as a Board Member, as well as for our community. My reason for wanting to be on our Board is straightforward… I want to help make Johnson Ranch a great place to live, increase our property values, and make us the envy of our neighboring HOA communities. I previously served on our HOA Board for several months in 2021 and 2022 as an appointee. I was involved in helping the board get a better management company (CCMC) and a better landscape company (Caretaker). I was also heavily involved in the plans to improve our amenities. The amenities in Johnson Ranch are 20 years old, outdated, and in bad need of upgrading. As a Board Member, my goal will be to improve our amenities without increasing Homeowner dues, which will in turn increase our property values.
 
Board Committee Experience: I previously served on our HOA Board for several months in 2021 and 2022 as an appointee. And before that, I served on the Nominating Committee.
