HPP Board 2014

holding legal title as tenants-in severalty, tenants-in-common, joint tenants, or tenants by the entirety.

The key words are "holding title as". If your name isn't on the deed, no vote for you.

I want to say thank you to all the Board Members and Residents who attended this morning's meeting. That was the most civil, informative gathering I have ever attended in HPP.

Peace.

The newest Board candidate who was to be sworn in at this morning's HPPOA Board meeting withdrew.
There are now 4 HPPOA Board positions vacant.

I agree with Kenney. Good will was expressed.

Both Kenney and Hawaiideborah refer to “this morning’s meeting” (October 23). However, I understand that only four Board members attended.

According to "Article V – Bylaws Definitions
Section 11. Quorum of the Board of Directors. A majority of the Board of Directors hereinafter referred to as "board".” With a nine-member Board, the majority is five.


According to “Article Viii VIII – Board of Directors (emphasis added)
Section 12. Acts of the Board: The acts of a majority of the directors present at any meeting at which a quorum is present shall be the acts of the board.....”

While it may have been called a “meeting”, without the Board’s ability to take action (lack of quorum), any such gathering is useless and a waste of money. Until such time as new members can be appointed to the Board, with only five active Board members, it will be imperative to ensure that every member attends every meeting, which may, on occasion, be difficult.

Janet says "any such gathering is useless and a waste of money."

frank says "Janet, your opinion is subjective"

[janet]

These are some very good questions...each of which leads to more.

Please be patient while I do some research. I promise I am not ignoring this request!

A short definition of receivership, courtesy of Wikipedia. Food for thought.


RECEIVERSHIP
In law, receivership is the situation in which an institution or enterprise is being held by a receiver, a person "placed in the custodial responsibility for the property of others, including tangible and intangible assets and rights," especially in cases where a company cannot meet its financial obligations or enters bankruptcy. Various types of receiver appointments exist:
1. a receiver appointed by a (government) regulator pursuant to a statute;
2. a privately appointed receiver; and
3. a court-appointed receiver.
The receiver's powers "flow from the document(s) underlying his appointment" – a statute, financing agreement, or court order.
Court-appointed receivers are "the most powerful and independent of the judicially appointed managers." Unlike special masters and monitors, "the receiver completely displaces the defendants: the receiver makes large and small decisions, spends the organization’s funds, and controls hiring and firing determinations."

It will go on, as long as it continues to be effective. The woman withdrawing from the board is understandable (I mean, I'm a crusader, but not THAT much of a crusader- to risk my life for being on an HOA Board), but the idiot that threatened her has accomplished his goal.

[Kenney]

Isn't it time for us all to come together for the best of our community, Puna, the world?
We have the power, knowhow, brains, heart to make this work!
Let's not be defined by the lowest of us, but by the best in us!
We CAN make this association work! (If that isn't your goal, I don't know what to say to you.)
This whole thing has gotten out of hand. My heart goes out to the women who were terrorized. I am so sorry.
Let us make this right, together, now! Be kind to one another. Forgive. Make peace. Move on! This is NOW!
Mother Nature is knocking on our door. Let's greet her with the same Aloha we share as a community.
Peace.
