![]() ![]() Section 5: OPA Board Subject: Annual Meeting Notification Msg# 1191250
|
||||||
In the history of OPA, until this year, I believe there's never been a rescheduling of the annual meeting due to the incompetence of an election contractor and the committee. Your efforts at notifying local homeowners does not help anyone across the bridge. The last minute postcard notice that you mention does not meet the 15 day notification in our governing documents. These last minute efforts do not comply with the By-laws. | ||||||

For reference, the above message is a reply to a message where: Joe: I will respond as follows: 1. Notice of the Annual Meeting, including all required meeting related materials, went out by mail more than 15 days prior to the August 12 meeting date. 2. As you know, the meeting was re-scheduled to August 26 -- this decision was made by unanimous consent of the Board on August 2nd, the day after the August 1 Special Board Meeting. 3. There is no Bylaw provision that speaks directly to the issue of notice of a re-scheduling of the annual meeting. But nevertheless, notice has been provided in the following ways: a) on the OPA website; b) on the OPA Facebook page; c) on the OPA Instagram page and Twitter feed; d) in the August 7 OPA e-blast and the August 9 OPA e-blast; e) by publication in the Bayside Gazette, the Dispatch, the Courier, and the OP Progress; f) by the posting of flyers at the Golf Club and Community Center; g) on the signs at the North Gate and South Gate. Notice of the new meeting date is also being sent this week via postcard (USPS delivery) to all member addresses of record. I would add that the re-scheduled meeting date has been extensively publicized here on your Forum (thank you for that), on other Facebook pages with large followings, and in news media reports. 4. In my view the initial meeting notice coupled with the re-scheduling notice provided in the many ways listed above, including by written/mailed notice being sent out this week, complies or at the very least substantially complies with the Bylaws, and constitutes considerable, conscientious, and good faith effort on the part the Association to ensure that members remain fully informed. There is no evidence I'm aware of to the contrary. Best, Bruce |
