Want to add a few other things about the board mtg.
The agenda included the adoption of a conflict of interest policy. A date of 2/19/2013 was stated and then some discussion that was barely audible. The item was tabled.
A new member was sworn in and he'll be overseeing Dist 3. He said the board makes the decisions. He wants his constituents to reach out to him so he can represent them. He was very excited to be on the board. He has a military background and works w/DAV programs.
The other person who was supposed to be sworn in didn't show.
After RTSC was decommissioned, a member bashed RTSC royally, esp the chairperson. This after spending hours of volunteer time advocating for them. All went sour for her when RTSC wanted signage that was incorrectly placed under the interim GM's direction, adjusted. The board had passed the RTSC proposal but that's not what the end result was. She claimed that the RTSC chair was biased and was advocating for their neighbor. I think when someone has lots of hostility towards their neighbor, their judgement gets skewed and paranoia sets in. The neighbor never once contacted RTSC to do anything. The signage adjustment was only about the signage not meeting MUTCD standards. That is it period. Someone on the board who never liked RTSC, incited these people adding fuel to the fire, a horrible thing to do to a volunteer committee who has dedicated almost 5 yrs of their life.
