HPP Board 2014

[janet]

hppwatchdog made a mistake in tense. But I believe his purpose was the same as mine when I posted the following on 22 December(emphasis added):

"With reference to the "Emergency Executive Session" mentioned above, it appears that the Board is again ignoring the Bylaws and walking into another invalid meeting.

ARTICLE VIII – BOARD OF DIRECTORS
Section 9. Meetings of the Board.
(d) Executive Session
1. Description
a. An executive session must be agendized, or be called during an open meeting with a motion to adjourn to executive session, a second and majority vote.

"Agendized" means put on the agenda of a Regular, Special or Emergency Special Meeting ahead of time. A Special meeting can be called with only that one agenda item. The Board will have to call an open Special meeting, with proper notification AND the participation of interested members and then can immediately adjourn to Executive Session.

Posting the notification on the website, while admirable, does not satisfy the regulation."

I had hoped to warn concerned members that the Board was going to make another mistake BUT had time to rectify it and do this correctly. Unfortunately, no one reacted to it - I just checked the HPPA website and no agenda has yet been posted for an Emergency Special Meeting on 30 December.

No, I did not state "Get the Board to fix this". I had thought that was clear. Perhaps concerned members did try to affect this change and were ignored by any Board members they approached.

You all do realize the Association is as much a victim of this Board as the former employees claim they are? I fear that this Board could be setting itself up for a lawsuit by the membership for its malfeasance.
