Ellen, I was hoping you weren't on vacation. I brought this issue to HOATALK because PMC + 2 BOD approved new (resubmitted ARC) without new consents. Yes, they ignore my concern.
But moving forward, yesterday I personally asked 7 owners (140 homes) to consider a Board position with applications due March 2024. Hopefully I receive feedback in 1-2 weeks and we can schedule some meetups.(Prayer!) We have 7 streets here and I attempted to suggest running with owners on 5 streets. This isn't BRAIN SURGERY since we only have basic amenities. We only need 2 to commit + me. Then campaign as a team. I just completed a 7 day jury-duty trial of a terrible criminal case.
Watching 7 days of 2 lawyers food-fight was reminisent of our HOA leadership. Thanks again for your advice and humor.
Regarding your recruiting steps: This sounds like excellent strategizing to me.
I really do not want to hijack the thread, but I am curious: Do you think the jury did a good job? Do you think your fellow jurors had reasonable explanations for taking the positions they did?
I hear you about the attorneys and food fighting. Interesting. I never got as far as being voir dire'd for serving on a jury. I know I would go into the voir dire segment saying something like, "Look attorney so-and-so, I am
not what is known as a team player. I expect I may hate working with the other jurors. I think the judge will regret my being seated." Unfortunately I think many lawyers might like the anti-team player attitude and say, "Accepted." And I would be miserable.
