During the December 7, 2015 monthly board meeting the newly-elected president, Charlotte Mizzi, declared that these monthly meetings were held for the board to conduct the association's business, and that they were not intended to be landowner meetings. She further stated that from now on landowners would only be able to speak once during one of the two three-minute landowner input periods (but not both), unless asked to speak by the chairperson. I understand her motivation for this due to the unruly behavior of some landowners (and board members) in past meetings, but the policy does curtail each landowner's participation in their association's government to only three minutes.
What would you think about landowners conducting their own monthly meetings, open to all landowners and board members, to be held at least 17 days ahead of the next scheduled board meeting so that issues could be raised, discussed and action plans developed to present to the board as an agenda item if enough landowners are in agreement. Requests for agenda items must be made at least 15 days in advance.
It seems that doing this will give landowners a greater opportunity to be heard and it will provide an orderly and organized approach to addressing the board, and have it backed up in writing and part of the official record.
