WILLIAM
(BILL) MUNDELL IS AN INCOMPETENT AND CROOKED CAREER POLITICIAN NOT FIT TO BE
ELECTED TO THE ARIZONA CORPORATION COMMISSION.
According
to Mundell's bio published in the local newspapers he is a career politician
since 1980, his previous jobs were: Chandler Municipal Court judge, state
representative, and on the Corporation Commission. His bio fails to list that
he was appointed by Governor Jan Brewer to be in charge of the Registrar of
Contractors (ROC). That is not surprising because Mundell omitted that
information because: an Arizona audit reported the ROC record-keeping was a
mess, the ROC failed to properly investigate homeowner complaints, and that the
ROC failed to give the poor construction complaint filers the protection
allowed by law.
Please read the 87-page damning ROC report dated July 2013 written by the Arizona Auditor, Debbie Davenport:

We
suffered over $100,000 in damages by the bad contractor Robert Freund (Palmers
Kitchen Bath & Beyond). We filed an ROC complaint on 01/17/2014 listing
over 60 construction problems and violations to building codes. The ROC inspector,
Stephen Lawton, met secretly with his Youngtown buddy Freund and closed the
complaint. Lawton was fired from the city inspector in Youngtown for his poor
work and he personally knew Freund because his business was in Youngtown. The
reason the ROC gave us was that we failed to allow Freund the opportunity to
repair his contractor mess but that was untrue. Our only requirement was that
Freund repair our house damages under the supervision of our new contractor but
Freund refused the job. We have suffered physical threats and house sabotage
(crimped waterline. cut electrical lines, poisoned trees, and slashed tires).
The court approved Injunctions against Robert Freund and his worker, Derrick
King (who has a previous criminal record) because we feared for our lives. We
won the $3,900 lawsuit Freund filed against us for the unpaid amount of the
nearly $14,000 we already paid for substandard home-repair work.
We
asked Governor Ducey to reopen our ROC complaint so we could collect from the
$30,000 Recovery Fund limit and the difference from Freund's insurance but that
was declined by Ducey. However, Governor Ducey reviewed our 01/06/2015 documentation and
the Arizona auditor's 07/26/2013 report concerning the failings of the ROC. Governor Ducey fired William "Bill" Mundell after less then a month as the Arizona Governor on 02/03/2015. Governor Ducey replaced Mundell with Jeff Fleetham. See Ducey News release:
We
have attached the whole story about our bad contractor, our house
damages/sabotage, and the failure of the ROC in our internet posted story "FIRE
REGISTRAR OF CONTRACTORS, WILLIAM MUNDELL, FOR FAILING TO PROTECT THE CITIZENS
OF ARIZONA FROM BAD CONTRACTORS." Mundell is unfit for public
office because of his crooked incompetence. Many Arizona homeowners contacted
us about the ROC problems because they also suffered property damages from bad
contractors that were not reimbursed by Arizona's Contractor Recovery Fund.
NOTE:
The Arizona lawmakers looked the other way because any money not paid from the
Contractor Recovery Trust is swept to the state's general fund. Arizona is
always more interested in scamming it citizens by failing to pay its bills. Please remember this when you vote: DO NOT
ELECT WILLIAM “BILL” MUNDELL.

The
Arizona auditor, Debbie Davenport, reported in 2013 that the ROC record-keeping
was a mess with 20% of its records were missing or duplicated plus 40,000 ROC
records had inaccurate information. The damning state audit reported that
through Mundell’s ROC leaderships that he failed to provide the protection for
homeowners from bad contractors that they were entitled by the law. Specifically,
the auditor stated the ROC failed to properly investigate homeowner complaints
and many were wrongly closed. The state audit reported that the ROC failed timely
investigate homeowner complaints which caused the delayed state contractor
recovery trust reimbursements and more undue homeowner financial hardships. Lastly, the state audit reported that the ROC
failed to keep up in communication with the homeowners which resulted in bad
contractors never resolving their construction problems or failing to pay the required
homeowner reimbursements. This can be
verified by the state report posted online at:
We
suffered over $100,000 in damages from a bad contractor. We filed a ROC
complaint in January 2014 listing over 60 construction problems and violations
to building codes. The ROC closed our complaint after six months stating that:
“We failed to allow the contractor to repair the problems.” That was untrue
because we required our bad contractor to repair the substandard work under the
guidance of our new contractor. But that was refused by our old bad contractor.
We thought that was fair because we had been physically threatened with harm and
our house had been sabotaged with a crimped waterline.
However,
the ROC failed to follow the law. The ROC did not even penalize our bad
contractor who was not properly licensed since he failed to have the required
qualified party (state licensed contractor) at the time he was hired. All
communications to the ROC’s Bill Mundell were ignored. We complained that we
were under attack with cut electrical lines, poisoned trees, and slashed tires
but Mundell did nothing. The court approved Injunctions Against Harassment to
protect us from the bad contractor and his worker. We won a $3,800 lawsuit against
us filed by the bad contractor even after we had paid nearly $14,000 for
substandard work. We have discovered that our bad contractor story was not the
only story because many homeowners were harmed by Mundell’s ROC and they also
got no help from the ROC. Sadly, those
bad contractors were allowed to stay in business and hurt more Arizona
homeowners with bad home repair work because the ROC did nothing to stop their criminal
activities.
William
“Bill” Mundell failed at the ROC as documented by a state audit plus many
complaints from homeowners. Mundell should not be elected to the Arizona Corporation
Commission.
