I just noticed on FB's HPP Next Door thread that some real unscrupulous tactics are being played out right now by the GM, office staff and some directors. I double checked what the commentator said about what is now on the HPP web site.
Now, some of these directors (but who knows who is really behind this) are going to hold a regular board meeting right after the special board meeting. Can't do it! But they will try.
1st, the bylaws in Art. VIII Sec. 9 stipulate (this was referenced by the FB commentator) that the regular board meeting dates,times or location can only be changed by a resolution voted on by the board. This is to change the reg. board meetings permanently, not temporarily, that is what the special board meetings bylaw section allows. After such a board decision to make the changes, keeping in mind that at no board meeting has the board made such a resolution, the membership must be notified of the change first, before the change can take affect.
I would argue that sneaking in the reg. board meeting into the agenda for the special board meeting is not notification even if we ignored the intent of Art. VIII Sec. 9.
2nd, these miscreants are fully aware that at 5:00 the bylaw committee meets in the library and has been for several years. The bylaw committee meeting is and has been on the HPPOA calendar but not these board meetings.
Hope everyone shows up to see the show.
