Annual Membership Meeting -
Cornerstone to a Great Neighborhood
It is important that you plan to attend the Annual Neighborhood
Membership Meeting on Tuesday, August 8. There are
only two such meetings each year. The August meeting focuses on election
of representatives on the Council of Stewards. The purpose of the
November meeting is approval of the budget for the following year.
Both meetings provide key information about your neighborhood
and conduct business that often requires a quorum as set by our by-laws
and covenants.
At the August meeting, a quorum of 25% of total Class “A” members
(owners) must be present to hold official business, including election
of members to the Council of Stewards. This includes proxy statements
that are returned to Abbott Enterprises or received on the night
of the meeting. Advance notice of this meeting was mailed to all
owners during the last week of July. The packet will contain: a cover
letter with names of candidates that have been nominated by the 2006
Nominating Committee; a copy of minutes from the 2005 meeting; and
a proxy that may be returned if you will not be present. If
you know you will be unable to attend, please return your proxy to
Abbott by mail as soon as possible or sign and send it with a neighbor
who will be attending. Class “A” members include
owners (resident or non-resident) and do not include tenants who
are renting from someone else. Tenants are welcome to attend the
meeting, but may not vote.
Attendance to these meetings is often determined
by interest in one or two major neighborhood topics or complaints.
Last year, there was much focus on opinions and actions regarding
completion of our roads. There will be time provided at this meeting
for comments, concerns, and suggestions. Although there may not be
a major issue of broad interest, it is still important that we all
remain informed and attend the meeting on August 8. An opportunity
to sign-up for neighborhood committees will be provided along with
annual reports from each of those committees. The meeting provides
an excellent chance to learn what is happening now and what is planned
for the future. The success of our Association is a reflection
of involved neighbors!
