A New Board Member for Regency Cove

A park majority conscensus has been been publicized, and a board member has resigned. The Board of Directors now has the responsibility to fill the vacancy. Here are a few thoughts that I would like to share with you board members. I encourage other residents to add your ideas:

1. No personal agendas are welcome. At Candidates' Night in March 2011, several of you spoke of representing the residents. ( Elaine, are you listening?) Well, the residents have spoken, and now its time for the BOD to reconfigure their policies and loyalties of the last few weeks/months to finally represent the residents in choosing a new board member. It was unbelievable to hear that after the recall results were announced, and the  board president resigned, that one board member called out and refused to accept the resignation of the president. One question for that board member: Do you, in any way, understand the meaning of representing the majority of the residents of Regency Cove? Apparently not. Who needs you?

It wasn't that long ago that a president changed our hot tub rule because his visitng grandson couldn't get into the tub. I fought that while I served on the board and I continue to disagree with allowing children into our hot tub because it is a therapeutic device, and not a recreational toy. Get off your fat ass and take the kids to Busch Gardens or Lowery Zoo, for cripe sake.
Board members, remember who put you where you are. Start listening to your neighbors, and get off your high horse, because horses aren't allowed in Regency Cove. Motorcycles, on the other hand, are. BOD, you dropped the ball on that rule, and many of us are mad as hell. A year has passed and not one single one of you has has bothered to re-initiate the No Motorcycle  Rule in the park. Who are you listening to?

Next: the Board of Directors, or the officers of the BOD must stop doing favors for their friends. This is one of those "touchy areas" that our board has refused to publicly address. A request was recently submitted to the board via the approved office form, regarding the kayak ramp on Pelican Point.
Someone chose to eliminate the topic from the agenda. This is the president's job. Why wasn't this discussed at the last board meeting? The residents of Pelican Point have requested attention to their needs. Betty Ridge and our Board has overlooked their requests.
What a shame to Regency Cove!

Under Personal Agenda and Favors for Friends what about?
(1) The Continuous Parking Permit (CCP) fiasco. Who initiated this and who does this benefit?
(2) The $17,000 roof over the shuffle court. I believe because this is a capital improvement (and benefits less then 10% of the residents) this should have been voted on by the shareholders.
(3) The off property (illegal) kayak ramp.
(4) Firing Cheri.
Come on board of directors, live up to your RESPONSIBILITY not your WHIMS!

It sure sounds like you have an agenda.You keep telling the Board what they you want done or what you like or think should be done. I tmonvathink that is an agenda. Why don't you let the Park heal from this awful recall that was just done. I would never want to be on the BOD.
