Hi all,
In a marathon session of the Finance Committee, Officers Committee and Executive Board, a draft budget for 2014 has been passed. The Officers Committee vote was tie, but nonetheless the draft budget now rolls forward to the Delegate Assembly for approval.
-
According to our Attorney, Rod Tennyson, these combined actions meet the burden of "presenting a budget in October"; and the Delegate Assembly has until December to approve the budget.
-
One Resident promised that if the Wi-Fi line was not removed from the budget, the budget would be rejected! neither the Finance Committee nor the Executive Board was intimidated. Additionally, if the budget is not passed by the final Delegate meeting in December; then we simply continue with the last Delegate Assembly approved budget, namely the 2013 budget.
-
These opinions alleviate the crisis atmosphere and the need for non-scheduled Delegate Assembly meetings and the possibility of lack-of-quorum that such a meeting might bring.
-
I feel that the later this vote is taken, the presence of more Seasonal Residents will improve the probability of success of this budget and Wi-Fi.
-
So, we will present this budget to the regularly scheduled meeting of the Delegate Assembly on 1 November 2013.
-
See you all then!

Thank you Dave for a positive view, I thought it was more of a 3-ring circus. I apologise to the people who emailed me to represent them pro WiFi. I was one of the majority who raised their hands to speak for WiFi but were cut off by Ms Tetro' 15-minute limit. Actually 7 minutes for, and 7 minutes against. You can watch the meetings on Channel 63 at 6pm and ??
