We, the undersigned, do hereby protest the results of the voting at the Dancing Bear Property Owners Association (DBPOA) annual meeting held on February 18, 2016. At the meeting, votes were cast, including a surprise write-in candidate for the Board of Directors. Although write-in candidates are allowed, there was a call for nominations from the floor before the vote but there were none.
When asked to provide vote counts for all of the Board and ACC positions, it
became clear that a single interest ("TLF6") desired to determine the
outcome of each one. The handout from the annual meeting stated that there are
471 votes to be cast and the single interest ("TLF6") controls 206
votes, which is 44% of the total. However, as per the CCR’s and confirmed by
CIA Services, this interest ("TLF6") only pays 50% on each lot it own
so it appears that it provides only 28% of the annual assessment income.
We ask that those who got into their office via the votes from these single interests ("TLF6") step down-especially those that live in this community. Please see the current
and proposed results in the image above that honors the popular vote but allow
the outside interest to have a second seat on the Board of Directors.
Please limit the signing of the petition to property owners. For example, if a husband and wife own a property jointly, then only vote twice. Otherwise, vote once.
Note that you are able to sign anonymously by ‘un-checking’ the box that is above the green ‘Sign Petition’ area.
While I disagree with the manner the election was conducted, I believe the results are legitimate. TLF6 should be paying full maintenance fees for each property it owns.
