quote:Old Croc, the membership voted in a Mailbox Committee at the last membership meeting so there is a MEMBERS Mailbox Committee and they answer to the membership, not the board.

At the membership meeting she said, "The Mailbox Committee is a BOARD committee!!!"
Article X - Committees Sec 1 "The board, by resolution adopted by a majority of directors, or the membership, by resolution, adopted by a majority of members present at a membership meeting, at which a quorum is present, may designate and appoint one or more committees, which committees shall have such scope and authority as shall be delegated to them by the appointing body. Committee actions and decisions shall be consistent with the resolution and subject to these bylaws and Association policies and procedures. In an event of conflict between the appointing body and its committees, the decision of the appointing body shall prevail. The designation and appointment of any such committees and the delegation thereto of any authority shall not relieve the Association, the board, or any individual thereof, of any responsibility imposed by law."
The Appointing Body is the membership, not the board.
Our Committee policy also states that when a committee is formed, they are to have a meeting as soon as possible. The MEMBERS mailbox committee is already being obstructed, railroaded, and when they requested a copy of the deed for the 20 acre lot at the office, the ofc staff told this person to go to the county and get it. This person got the deed by other means and will start research immediately.
One year ago at the membership meeting, during the board's mailbox committee's blunder, a member tried to form a Member's Mailbox Committee, and Dist5 rep L Crelly, railroaded that effort by enticing the members to join her board mailbox committee. She used her board platform to influence the discussion in forming a member's mailbox committee after the motion had been made. She said "why form another mailbox committee when the board already has a Mailbox Committee? Come join ours." Well it worked and look at where we are today. One year later, the members formed their own Mailbox Committee and are being obstructed by the SAME people.
