That makes logical sense msky. We still have the inequity of those of us who have boxes in HPP already for free, and those who want one in HPP would have to pay for one. Something else needs to be worked out to make it fair. I had assumed the assignment of boxes would work in the same manner it is now...through the post ofc who would provide the key..????
Dtisme, there was a real disconnect between the 3 members on the mailbox committee. The 2 guys claimed that Dist 2 hadn't responded to their emails and that she told them to pick up the ball and run with it. She responded "but not over my head or around me!!!" How were they to know, they're newbies? And she's the very one who told one of these guys when he questioned whether he should w/draw as a candidate for his district (he lost Dist 4) bc he was too green, she told him he didn't need to know anything.."We didn't know anything either." [
] There ya go! He later filled a board vacancy.
The bottom line is that the new pres failed in her duties to make sure that everything that was sent to the membership was in order before mailing. There should've been a board vote approving the draft/s and it appears that didn't happen. Who's in charge? Who's going rogue? And if the ballots we rec'd really was a ballot, then a 3rd party should've rec'd and counted them...otherwise there's no checks and balances and a bylaw breaking board w/an agenda could say they got their votes w/no proof. If it ever comes to a ballot phase down the road, we better make sure this board has a 3rd party set up to receive and count them. Sorry but I don't trust these reps after the last election FRAUD.
As for the 600 votes in Article XI Sec 8...I believe it means minimum 600 ballots received and a majority of the votes affirmative. They did say don't send any $ or ballots. Wait until the membership mtg where members can get answers to their questions. The 2 male reps said they welcome suggestions as their proposal isn't perfect. All they want is to find a way to help members who don't have mailboxes in HPP the opportunity to get one.
