Carol.

Video and recordings are excellent ways to get "uninterpreted" information that is not run through a filter of someone else's perspective. The board chose to make sure that will not be available. They have chosen to limit our ability to get credible information, after scheduling these meetings when most working people cannot possibly attend.

You have not attended the last several bod meetings, including the ones held in the evenings.
Try PARTICIPATING rather than criticising. Come to the HPP evening meetings. Join a committee. Do something positive to help instead of blaming others.
Karma,
I guess you think you know who I am, but of course since you hide behind a screen name, I have no idea who you are.
I share my HPP voting rights with my husband, who has attended meetings, I have attended those that I did not have a prior commitment. I am not retired and have the kind of profession that is a 60+ hour commitment, plus other commitments that are none of your business. Not belonging to a committee does not preclude me from having the right to be concerned by the actions of a board who gets a sizable chunk of my hard earned paycheck every year to spend, and who are now banning recordings or video taping of the HPP meetings. Ethical behavior from an elected board handling my money should not be an extraordinary expectation, only earned by belonging to a committee, or attending every meeting.
If they have nothing to hide the HPPOA board should post unedited video of all HPPOA meetings on the website for all HPPOA members, on or off island, to watch. Instead they banned video taping to limit access to an unedited version of their actions. The minutes are heavily edited, I compared the words ascribed to me in the minutes of one meeting to my notes and the tape made by someone else, and they were virtually unrecognizable, and left out the main point I made. If members cannot record the meetings anymore, then the only record of what is said and done will be minutes controlled by the board.
