Hi.
First - the title of this meeting is very misleading. Dennis Riley set up this to be a meeting of Members Speaking to the Board, not just other Members.
I volunteered to help Dennis facilitate this meeting because he identified it as a method for Members to get together and become more unified in telling the Board what problems they are having and what they want the Board to concentrate on doing for them. The fear of reprisals for those of Church Universal and Triumphant that may speak against the teachings, or Landowners very concerned of neighbor responses, is very real.
To combat that fear there will be a "Suggestion/Comment" box available for people to just drop in a note of what they want addressed, and hopefully a solution or two. Anything dropped in that box will be read by Dennis and I and added to the recorded comments.
The basic plan is have the audience speak one at a time, uninterrupted, and record their concerns and suggestions. We'll try and group everything into some core ideas, including adding everything from the suggestions box, that can be voted on by the audience to set their priority.
The list will be presented to the Board as agenda items, with priorities identified by the Landowners. If anything was presented as a problem with a potential solution the Board may be asked to vote on it immediately. I personally hope the Board accepts all issues as agenda items and starts including them in the unfinished business category until they are resolved.
I hope all the Landowners with concerns or suggestions for the Board will come, especially those that have been holding back on paying their Assessments as a manner of protest will come and help everyone set some priorities for the Board to act on.
