CC&Rs and the incorporation vote



As I indicated a couple weeks ago here my initial reaction to the mailing of both was to just throw them away. Spur of the moment thoughts are not always the smartest. Upon further consideration it will be better to send them in as no votes.

You may wonder why I have changed my opinion. It boils down to cost. Anyone not mailing these back will cost the association additional postage and this can add up to a significant amount. Our association does not need to be in a position of spending more of our money than necessary to accomplish the goal.

Do I agree with three mailings and the cost incurred? Absolutely not, but that was the decision made by the board. Those with strong feelings on the issues will return the mailings on the first request. Others that really do not have an interest may vote and return subsequent mailings just to make them stop arriving in the mail. Think what would happen in regular board elections if this procedure was undertaken. There is a reason it is a one shot deal in other cases.

Our management is currently in the budgeting process for the next fiscal year and any unnecessary expenditures simply makes it more difficult to keep our dues stable. Something to consider going forward.
