"The Old Guard"

Are these people the political "Kingpins" of the La Habra Heights Improvement Association?


According to a well connected resource within the organization's inner circle, materials to be published in the *Heights Life must first meet with the editorial approval of Claire Spothelfer and Jean Good Lietzau. Peculiar, considering that neither is on the Board of the Improvement Association.

*The Heights Life – A carefully crafted monthly newsletter intended to further the group’s ideology.

La Habra Heights Improvement Association’s Tax Returns Suggest Fraud





































Contributions Not Tax Exempt!


La Habra Heights, CA - The tax filing status of La Habra Heights Improvement Association has recently come into question. LHHIA is a local organization that is established to unite residents & promotes development and welfare of the community. The group solicits contributions from residents & local businesses, by claiming it is a charitable 501(c) 3 non-profit, and that contributions are tax deductible. However, the IRS Publication 78, a list of recognized 501(c) 3 charities, does not include the La Habra Heights Improvement Association as a charitable organization. Only contributions to organizations recognized by the IRS are tax deductible.

In addition, the Improvement Association's publicly available 990 Tax Filings for 2006, 2007, & 2008, signed "under penalty of perjury" by Treasurer Jeffrey Heintz, state that the Association is a 501(c)4 non-profit, not a 501(c)3.

According to documents published by the Internal Revenue Service, contribu­tions to 501(c)(4) organizations generally are not deductible as charitable contributions for federal income tax purposes. Also, the organization may be required to disclose that contributions are not deductible when it solicits contributions

A 501(c)4, however, can be politically active. Examples of 501(c)4 organizations include employee unions, civic leagues and political action committees.

Improvement Association President Pam McVicar said that the 990 Filings were "errors". The office of Joe Mercile, accountant for the Improvement Association, was contacted in an effort to confirm the LLHIA filing status. At press time, calls had not been returned.

At the LHHIA general membership meeting in June 2009, held in at City Hall, concerns were raised over the security of members’ personal financial information. Primarily, in light of the arrest of the Improvement Association Vice President in April of 2009 on 144 charges, including fraud and identity theft. The Board attempted to quell the concerns by touting the professional accountant they used, Joe Mericle, and the fact that the Treasurer, Jeffrey Heintz, was a (former) police officer.

Next antic under investigation; LHHIA commits 1 to 1576 counts of mail fraud.

Key reasons to support the boycott

June 2009
Election noticed for Annual General Meeting. At the meeting, it was announced election already held at undisclosed time and place, by undisclosed people.
Upon questioning, Board revealed that by-laws had been changed, but won't let anyone see them; "only board members can see the bylaws"
Members cannot vote for board.

Refused to share financial report with members present.
Promised to send a copy to a member who requested, but never did.
Misrepresented themselves as a 501(c)3 to solicit tax deductible contributions, when they had been a 501(c)4 since 1966.
Mailed solicitations with such misrepresentation constitute "mail fraud".

Mail-in election held in May 2010. Results not published or announced.

June 2010 annual meeting included an agenda item for "election", without any notice to members that an election would be held.

Latest slogan is "LHHIA receives no city funding. "
However, they have received at least $6,000 annually in Los Angeles County taxpayer dollars.
They also receive special treatment, in obtaining free, or almost free, use of City facilities for their public and private events and meetings.
