we received a notification about an election to fill 3 board seats however according to the memo only 3 people are running to fill the three seats. If this is the case what is the point of an election just assign these 3 individuals to the board. Perhaps I am misinterpreting the election. I've always been confused. Sorry if I am misinformed but the notice was not clear, and my husband also agreed with me.
anyone else confused ?

I do understand the confusion, but our bylaws require an official election process, regardless if the incumbents are not contested. It also requires a quorum, so every vote does count. For this election, since it's uncontested, the secretary will cast a vote for each incumbent and their terms will continue for another 2 years. We do ask that you still come to the meeting though to catch up to date on all the latest changes in Silver Ponds along with information about upcoming projects. It is our annual membership meeting. We hope to see you there.

Thank you. I cannot attend due to a dinner conflict but emailed my ballot to Camco Services who will do a proxy vote. Is there any way these meetings can be video taped so those who cannot attend can watch and keep up on the important issues ? At the very least a written summary of the meeting would be appreciated. I know it's extra work and everyone is strapped for time but sometimes events arise which conflict with board meetings. Thank you to our wonderful board.

Minutes are taken at each board meeting and posted to the bulletin board. We will soon be posting them to the website as well. As for recording the meeting, I'm not sure we would be able to do this with such short time to plan but I will look into it.

Hello Board, I think posting the minutes online here will suffice - its easier than going to the clubhouse bulletin board to read them. Always curious as to the goings on in the neighborhood. Thank you for our wonderful board for being so open about suggestions. My flyer is always organized in an easy to read fashion with insights about Silver Ponds. Kudos to the editor!

I saw we didnt get a "quorum". What exactly does this mean and how will it affect budget planning ? I sent my vote in via fax to Camco Services. I hope it was registered.

The vote has no effect on budget planning. The existing board will stay as is until a new vote occurs, likely next month or July. For that vote, we only need I believe it's 33 1/3% for a quorum, if not less. The proxies that were sent will remain counted. We will encourage more members to send in their proxies which will be sent out in a few weeks. As the 3 incumbents were not being run against, essentially the fact that we didn't have a quorum has no effect on the operations of our community and is more so a technicality. We will be updating the community by mail and website when we know more.
