i an unsure where six weeks came into this. as i understood it, it was between 10 and 60 days for notifications, and 21 for election ballots (and therefor presumably other ballots) however we do intend to send quarterly newsletters. additionally we are trying to revamp the web page to allow greater participation and exchange of documents. it is our hope that we will be able to reach progressively larger numbers of the acres. far from 'ignoring' them it is of paramount concern to this new board that we increase membership. that means contacting the people who are NOT members.

PS thank you for posting the questions and giving me the opportunity to reply. we should make it plain that i am a different laurie from you. i would hate you to be the recipient of animosity directed against me. so....i am laurie birch treasurer HACA.

Bylaws amendments are very complex. I understand the new board’s intents, although I disagree with some ideas of how to move forward. Doing any mailout requiring a response is best done 6 weeks before the deadline as some members live in other countries. There absolutely must be enough time for them to receive and send back any ballot for any meeting. Three weeks in often not enough time for folks to receive, read, decide and mail back 10-14 days before the due date so their ballot is received on time.
Yes, we are likely to be confused with our first names being alike! You have had to put up with some vicious bullying from some of the same difficult persons recently as I have in years past. That makes you & me friends in my book!
