YOUR NOMINATION AND ELECTION COMMITTEE AT WORK! After months of careful planning, preparation, and hard work, your HOA Nomination and Election Committee convened on February 4, 2023 to count ballots for the annual Board of Directors Elections. As required by the HOA By-Laws, all votes were anonymously cast. The authenticity of ballots and vote count were verified by Committee members Ruth Blevins, Susan Brown, Michaelene Cruz, Lisa Gabrielcik, Linda Storma, and Daniel Cruz. The results of the election were presented to the Board, as scheduled, on February 15, 2022. In addition to the Committee Members who worked hard to make this election run smoothly and transparently, the Committee wishes to thank Lisa Bellanca, our Committee’s Board Liaison, Cindy Briton, Co-Chair of the Membership Committee, and Cindy Swisher, Tower Editor. Also, the Committee wishes to thank all the HOA office volunteers for their help in directing members who were uncertain of how to deliver their ballots. Most of all, the Committee wishes to thank the Candidates for stepping up to serve their Community and Membership for casting their votes.
Our Board of Directors is always looking for volunteers to serve on next year’s Nomination and Election Committee. If you are interested in participating and having some fun along the way, or if you have any questions about the election, please reach out to Daniel Cruz at danielleecruz@gmail.com or 239.443.7278.
