Mike Good questions. Director Stratton’s email was an assumption that we ignored a desire to deal with these issues at the January board meeting. That was not what President Roderick asked. He asked Directors, after reviewing the report from E&E, if they wanted a special board meeting to write to me as Secretary with their request. This is in accordance with Article 4 and By-Law 26. The matters to be discussed were clearly stated in the notice of the special meeting. The notice of the special meeting listed the 10 board members who contacted me with their request. As of this morning, another Director has reconsidered and has communicated to Rick and me of his support for an expedited meeting to deal with the matters to be discussed. As it stands, there are now more than 2/3 of the board who have requested it. Much of the communications Directors have had on this matter has taken place off ODV. I will note again that we have been advised by CT counsel that time is of the essence with regard to legal considerations that requires board attention. In terms of the Zoom meeting, my responsibility is to communicate to the President of the written requests I have received, and to take his direction at communicating the date and time of the special board meeting, which I have done. The Zoom link is forthcoming.

You have taken it upon yourself to arrange a Zoom call for November 21st, but what was the final tally of the Directors, for or against waiting until January to resolve this? 73; Mike W7VO
