Eventually, the board's further discussion was in closed session.
Incredibly, an informed source tells OceanPinesForum.com that in that closed session the board decided it was not permissible for board members to receive free food and drink in the Matt Ortt Companies operations in OPA venues, but board members could accept free food and drink at Matt Ortt Companies restaurant operations outside of Ocean Pines. |

For reference, the above message is a reply to a message where: Back in October of 2020, the Ocean Pines Progress contained a feature article by Tom Stauss. The article documented some sort of a flap involving then board member Tom Janasek and the issue involved "gifts and gratuities" for board members. According to Stauss, in the public part of the board meeting, Tom Janasek alluded to a "scolding" email he received from Horn over what the Progress said it learned involved "allegations that Janasek received some nominal benefit at the Yacht Club which he did not pay for." According to the article, Janasek would occasionally fix the beer lines and Janasek "does not regard the occasional offer of a free beer as a problem." On that issue, Doug Parks was again a Janasek defender. Ralph DeAngelus of Matt Ortt Companies also defended Janasek saying board members were not comped. Frank Daly noted there was no circumstance where board members should accept comps from Ortt Companies. Eventually, the board's further discussion was in closed session. Parks also brokered the deal where the board agreed not to remove Janasek as a board member given his harassment of General Manager John Viola over many months at the Yacht Club and other OPA venues. |
