Questioning your vote?  I don't question your vote, I have defended your vote.  Mr. Reynolds and others are questioning your vote, even stating that you put forth a useless motion after the vote on Mr. Terry's motion.  I don't think your motion is useless and I certainly understand the importance of compromise to benefit the whole.

I do question the comments  Mr. Stevens made in his communication to the Bayside Gazette.  His comments state that your motion as amended (and one that he voted for) is a farce.  Given Mr. Stevens statement one does question Mr. Stevens vote.  If in Stevens view the motion is a farce, how is his vote a compromise to benefit the whole?

Although the amended version lacks substance, it opens the door for progress, unless  of course, Mr. Thompson thoroughly ignores investigating the benefits of immediately dedicating courts for Pickleball and providing the Platform Tennis Courts that their membership have been promised for years.

According to Mr. Reynolds the two tennis courts are already lined for pickleball and dedicated for pickleball use.  Is he wrong on this issue?  If he is correct, what does your motion change regarding the pickleball courts?

If the Board did not pass this motion, the issue would continue to languish with no resolution in sight, and that certainly does not serve the best interest of our community.  

On this we both agree!    It is time the pickleball and platform tennis issue is resolved and to do so in a cost effective manner and in the best interest of our community.  For that very reason is why you got six yes votes in support of your motion.  At least four other board members recognized this and supported you.  I would like to think that Mr. Stevens voted yes for the same reason but, given his recent comments, why he voted yes is questionable.
