Vacant Board Seat
¿ªÔÆÌåÓý
The instructions for board elections (p. 17 of the Manual) are complicated and designed for Districts much larger than ours. But below are quotes from two bullet points that are relevant. ?¡°Elections are held every two years¡±. ¡°Board members serve to the expiration of that term only and then must seek re-election.¡± That has been my experience with other boards such as HOAs. That is, board members are elected, hold office for two years, then when their term expires, they must be re-elected. When I was talking to Kim Lemons, I mentioned I was on the board (wasn¡¯t that discussed at the March meeting, lol). She asked me my name, I told her, and she said, ¡°Never heard of you.¡± I replied, ¡°I¡¯m not surprised!¡±, lol. So, I went on the county website to find out who is on our board (attached, ). ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Term Expire Jim Ruby, Chairman?????????????????????? 2024 Hal R. Nylander, Secretary????? ???????2024 Jessie Diaz????????????????????????????????????? 2022 Jimmy Ruby, Treasurer???????? ?????????2022 Vacant???????????????????????????????????????????? 2024 ? I¡¯ve lived here since February, 2019, and never heard of a board election. And those terms that extend until 2024 surprise me. But I won¡¯t quibble with the present board nor the length of their terms. I appreciate their service. I am curious, however, about when and how that vacant seat will be filled. On April 15 Jim wrote in an email, ¡°We are a board with members. We were formed to represent the will of the property owners¡±. In light of certain irregularities with the election or non-election of this board, I suggest that the ¡°will of the property owners¡± be determined by the vote of the property owners and not by the board alone.
