NPOA Board of Directors and Committees

Board of Directors

Larry Danto

Larry Danto
My wife Linda and I have enjoyed owning a home at Northstar since 1978; and have lived here full-time since 2002. Northstar is the family home for us, our children, and grandchildren. I am a general surgeon; and practiced on the faculty at UC Davis and in Davis for most of my career. For the past four years I was on the staff of Tahoe Forest Hospital, here in Truckee, and retired from clinical surgery earlier this year. 

This summer I have been one of the starters (I prefer docent) at our golf course; and I plan to work on the hill during the winters.

I served on the Board of Directors of the School of International Studies at University of the Pacific for several years; and am currently on the Tahoe Forest Hospital Foundation Board of Directors.

I am devoted to the concept that Northstar is the best residential and resort community in the Greater Tahoe Area – if not the country. I believe NPOA must maintain a strong presence and sense of purpose towards protecting and promoting our rights and benefits as homeowners as well as our investment in the Northstar Community.


Bill Ireton

Bill Ireton
I have been married for 46 years to my wife Sharon. We have two grown children, our son lives in San Jose, CA, and our daughter lives in Santa Fe, NM. We lived in San Jose, Ca for 30 years before moving to Rocklin Ca, where we have lived for the past 6 years in retirement.

I attended the University of California, Irvine and graduated with a BA in Physics, minor in chemistry. During my working career, I was operations manager for several silicon and compound semiconductor companies. I was responsible for marketing, manufacturing, R&D, and maintaining a budget for a $25M business base.

We started coming to Northstar in 1990 and consider it our home base resort for skiing. We purchased a condo in Aspen Grove in 1999. I am now serving my second term and have been active in reviewing and making recommendations to the operating budget, participated in reviewing, updating and approving the reserves plan, and participating in updating the CC&Rs. 

I believe that Northstar as a resort community was very well planned and established in the origination and continued growth. It is considered a top ski resort and has some of the finest tree and glade skiing around. The summers have always been a relaxing environment. It is important to continue to gain back and retain these important elements as the development continues and finally comes to conclusion.

My wife, Nancy, and I have been full time residents of Northstar for the past 10 years.

We have four grown children, two sons and two daughters. We moved to Truckee, from Pleasanton, in 1983. Our children all grew up in Truckee and graduated from Truckee High School. 

I attended California State University, and graduated with a BA in Political Science. I spent most of my career in construction management, and retired from the Army Reserve in 2004 after serving 29 years. I finished as a Lieutenant Colonel in Civil Affairs. My wife and I operate Mulloy Realty here at Northstar. We are not affiliated in any way with the Northstar™ Resort.

Northstar is very important to my entire family and it is our intention to live here for many years to come. We live in a great area and we have a strong association representing us. I believe my love of Northstar and open minded view will help continue positive decisions for our membership during my time on the board.


Dick_Paterson

Dick Paterson, President
I am a Managing Director of Genstar Capital, a private equity firm based in San Francisco, which I founded with three others 20 years ago. I am now semi-retired from Genstar but still serve on the boards of three companies owned by Genstar

Over the course of my business career I have served on the boards of numerous public and private companies, as well as on the NPOA board since the beginning of 2007.

Most of my more than 40 year business career has been focused on the finance function and during that time I managed a large staff of professional employees as the Chief Financial Officer of a large public company. In my role as a founder of Genstar Capital, I hired and managed a staff of investment professionals.

My wife, Toni, and I have been coming to Northstar for 20 years and when our children were very young, we decided that Northstar was the place we wanted to be during family vacations. We own a home in Big Springs and our permanent residence is on the San Francisco peninsula.

My wife, Roz, and I have been Northstar homeowners since 1989. Six years later, we purchased a Big Springs lot at the first auction for residents and we moved into our new home there in May 2006. While we are both still actively working, our plan is to move toward half-time residence at Northstar.

Since moving to California in 1972, I have been an attorney and then a partner with one of California’s largest law firms, formerly known as McCutchen, Doyle, Brown & Enersen. I served as Managing Partner of the McCutchen firm for almost a decade, before its merger with an east coast firm, Bingham Dana, in 2002. The combined firm, Bingham McCutchen, now numbers over 1000 attorneys in 13 offices across the US and in England and Japan. Currently, I am one of the practice leaders of the firm’s national litigation practice and serve as the firm’s general counsel. I am also a trustee of the plans which invest the retirement funds of the firm’s 2500 employees. And I serve on the board of an insurance company which insures almost 8000 lawyers in 11 national law firms.


Judy Howes

Judy Howes
I have enjoyed being a homeowner at Northstar since 1978. Our family has built two homes on Basque Dr. The majority of my time, since retirement, has been spent at Northstar. I was raised in Santa Barbara, California and attended school through college there.

My husband and I established an engineering company in Sacramento, Control Technology Specialists, Inc. Our company specialized in energy management for industrial HVAC systems. We also designed and fabricated burner and boiler control systems. I served as CFO and Office Management for the company of 35 employees until it was sold in 1998.

While living at Northstar I have become involved in the community. I am a founding member of the Queen of Hearts Foundation and have served on the grants committee since 2007. I am active with the Tahoe Rim Trail Organization, where our family has a vista in my husband’s memory.

My two children and extended family have enjoyed and benefited from Northstar and the Truckee community all their lives. I want to see that continue for my grandchildren and others who are devoted to this community. We are experiencing many changes to Northstar and I would like to help make sure we as homeowners protect this beautiful environment and community. NPOA is an organization with care and integrity. I am proud to be a Board Member.
