I believe we may be going about this the wrong way. I believe the best way to do this is to study, debate, and decide the best operational structure and processes for us. Alternatives should be considered here with no work on cost. Once decided... the work to get that solution at the best (not necessarily the lowest) cost should begin.
There is merit in what you say. However, OPA has not done what you suggest. James J. Hanks, Jr. a Partner at Venable LLP, provided the board with some information and advice regarding the duties of board members. This was back on October 1, 2014. I suspect in a closed meeting as the board would not want association members to read the document. Among many items in the four-page report are admonishments to each board member for "obtaining as much information as you can, including the advice and opinions of experts, and weighing it carefully" before making any decision. And especially "Considering all reasonable alternatives." With regard to OPA back office accounting, has the board obtained as much information as possible on all reasonable alternatives? |

For reference, the above message is a reply to a message where: Brett I believe we may be going about this the wrong way. I believe the best way to do this is to study, debate, and decide the best operational structure and processes for us. Alternatives should be considered here with no work on cost. Once decided... the work to get that solution at the best (not necessarily the lowest) cost should begin. This method is designed to produce the best overall solution for us... Comparing costs for various proposals before we decide what to do operationally is a waste of time... and is like comparing apples and oranges... IMHO Jeff |
