Even though it is on the agenda, there is no material update on the DEO Appeal.
It is simply in "inertia mode" until the judge makes a decision. All final statements from both sides were submitted back in July. There is no more input--only a decision.
The attorney for the Plaintiff has gestimated that the decision might be forthcoming by the end of 2017. There is really no telling when the Judge will make a decision; Judge has no deadline.

Since the 18th meeting, Chap details additional expenses on the horizon: Attachment DeletedExpenses not motioned at the 18th include: 1. Bids on the Bathhouse #2 roof; Chap reports two named bidders but refers to 3 bids being sought. My intuition is that the possibility exists that Bathhouse #2 might be on the chopping block... 2. Fire Alarm Box: Is this the same as the "fire suppression system" and smoke alarm referred to in the motion on the 18th? 3. Recreation Roof Replacement: another reference to only 2 bids. SOP requires 3 bids. 4. Roads Damage: no recommendations yet on what is needed to repair or replace damage; only an engineering study of core and compression approved. 5. Hot water heaters in Women's Bath at Rec Room-reason unknown 6. Lighting issues and lamps not working-reason unknown 7. AC Compressor #4 at clubhouse needs to be replaced-cost unknown 8. Chlorinator at spa busted and needs to be replaced-cost unknown. Note that all the expenses to infrastructure from all the lightning damage will be coming out of reserves. Only the cost of temporary post-storm labor costs coming from Operating. Note that there "may be" some insurance reimbursements of the costs. I am sure we will be informed if and how much any insurance money is forthcoming...

From the Oct 18th Minutes:
Why did Clf Jnsn refuse to vote on this issue?
First off, abstentions don't count. Only YES votes count and on SLohA's board, a quorum must be present to conduct business. If only 5/9 directors are present, the quorum requirement is met. But IF one of those 5 board members ABSTAINS from a vote, it means that that business cannot be decided. Fortunately, there were sufficient # of directors to offset Jnsn's refusal to participate.
Let's be clear about abstentions; they typically occur due to a potential or actual conflict of interest. When a board director abstains, the record should clearly state the REASON for the abstention. To not state a reason casts a shadow of legitimacy on the business proceedings and a doubt on the fiduciary role of the abstaining director.
So WHY did Clf Jnsn refuse to vote on the issue of a public workshop board meeting when it received overwhelming support of the other directors? Is there a potential or actual conflict of interest? And why did he not state a reason for his refusal for the record and leave this open for speculation?
And another question: Why did this come up at all? In the past, Toneesha has done the budget work and given it to the board members to ratify to present to members for their vote. Who "recommended" that the system be changed to a more public view this year? Thoughts?
And lastly, why was there no mention of the Election Committee, appointing the EC Chair or upcoming election activities at this meeting?
