The two meetings
A meeting adjourned for want of quorum can be reconvened, and Civil Code § 5115(d) lets the second one proceed on 39 votes where the first needed 98. Both are shown because the difference is the whole point.

What happened
These results are as the Inspector of Elections announced them at the reconvened meeting on October 15, 2026, written down by an owner who attended. The Inspector’s written report has not been distributed yet, and when it is, it replaces these figures. The September 17 meeting had failed quorum with 49 ballots. On October 15 the Inspector reported 55 returned against the 39 needed, so the ballots were opened and counted on the call. Each ballot carried five votes that could all go to one candidate, which is how a total can exceed the number of ballots. Jan Furstenfeld and Lori Barker were announced as elected to three-year terms and Greg Atherton to a two-year term. Votes for Tricia Halsema were void because she no longer owns a unit here. That fills three of the five seats. The board said the two left open, one for two years and one for one, will be filled by appointment at its next meeting, on November 19, 2026. The tax resolution on the ballot passed 48 yes to 3 no, with 4 abstentions.
The notice states the seat terms as three directors for two years and two for one; no seat on a three-year term. That is not the stagger Bylaws Art. IV § 6 fixes — see the comparison.

NAME: Jan Furstenfeld ADDRESS: Key Management, 415 Laurel Street, #203, San Diego, CA 92101 OWNER: 1989 OCCUPATION: Real Estate – Commercial and Residential EDUCATION: University of Utah – Sociology Major Triton College, Chicago Illinois – Real Estate Additional Extensive Real Estate Courses BUSINESS: Juvenile Probation Officer Undercover – Salt Lake City Police Department V.P., U.S. Financial (Real Estate Acquisition and Development) Member: San Diego Association of Realtors - 30+ Years Member: California Apartment Association (30+ Years) Member – Apartment Owners Association (30+ Years) Realtor/Investor Commercial and Residential Real Estate - 40+ Years Owner – Property Management Co., San Diego 20+ Years HOA Board Member – (6 different HOA’s) 30+ Years OTHER: President, California Assembly Committee President, PTA – 3 Times Received National Lifetime Honorary Service Award Girl Scout Leader Cub Scout Leader President, MADCAPS (Mothers and Daughters Assisting Philanthropies)
As an owner of multiple units at Jamacha Greens since 1989; and as my real estate is my only source of income; preserving and enhancing the value of every homeowner’s investment in a financially responsible manner is a top priority for me.
The drastic increase in insurance premiums over the past several years has had a major negative impact on our budget to do needed repairs. Hopefully, with an approximately 30% reduction in insurance premiums for 2025-2026, the Jamacha HOA will be able to continue needed repairs; i.e. balcony restoration required by SB326, replace dry rot wood, upgrade swimming pool areas and enhance our landscaping.
GOALS: Encourage owner attendance and input at HOA Board and Annual Meetings and participation in meeting the needs of the community. Continue needed improvements at Jamacha Greens.
I hope with my 40+ years experience in real estate and condominium development and management; as a Board Member, I can make a positive contribution to the ongoing improvements at Jamacha Greens. I would appreciate your support and vote. If elected, I will do my best to help serve the needs of all owners and residents. Thank you for your consideration.

Candidate statement
I would appreciate your vote for re-election to the HOA Board.
For the past 17½ years, I have been proud to serve our community and work hard for the place many of us call home. Unlike many board members in other communities, I live on the property, so I see and experience the same things that my neighbors do every day. I care deeply about our community because I am not just serving on the Board, I am also a homeowner and resident who has a direct stake in its success.
Over the years, I have worked hard addressing maintenance concerns, planning improvements, reviewing budgets, or listening to residents’ ideas and concerns, I believe in being engaged and working toward practical solutions that benefit everyone.
My property knowledge has been a valuable asset in helping the Board make sound decisions and plan for the future. I understand the importance of maintaining our property values while trying to keep Jamacha Greens a great place to live despite our current challenges.
I have enjoyed serving this community for nearly two decades and would be honored to continue representing you. Thank you for your trust, support, and consideration. I respectfully ask for your vote.
Turnout, election by election
The line is quorum: 98 ballots. 1 count in this record is certified in writing and 2 were announced at a meeting and not yet certified; the rest of the record holds no count at all, which is itself the finding.
Who the record puts on the board, and when
These are dated observations, not terms of service. The corpus holds appointment dates from minutes, officer names from Statements of Information, and ballot slates from notices — points, not spans. Two of them already disagree: a May 2024 filing names Greg Atherton as chief executive, and the minutes record the board appointing him a director on 26 June 2025. Drawing a continuous bar per director would paper over exactly that, so this draws what the documents actually say.
