“BLURB”

At the 02/17/25, Regular Board Meeting, Ranch President Kari Vickery confirmed that Director Sarah Woolverton resigned her position on the Board for “personal reasons.”

.

The Ranch Board held their Work Session Meeting on 03/03/25, and Ranch Manager Judy Lapora provided her BOD Vacancy Update.

.

According to Lapora only one application had been submitted and the deadline for interested parties was 03/12/25, followed by the selection of said party at the 03/17/25, Regular Board Meeting. She did not provide any further detailed information regarding the applicant, including simply his/her name.

Ranch resident Lynn Breeden asked Lapora: “When will we know who these applicants are?”

.

Lapora: “WELL, when we get closer to the 12th.”

.

Breeden: “Are you going to keep us in suspense?”

.

Lapora: “Of Course. After it closes we’re going to put out an informational blurb that goes out.”

.

Breeden: “Shock everybody at the same time?”

.

Lapora: “Yeah and laughing.”

.

WHERE’S THE “BLURB”?

.

To date, Lapora hasn’t provided any blurbs as promised.

.

Friday, 03/14/25, the Admin posted Monday’s (03/17/25), Regular Meeting AGENDA.

The following was listed under NEW BUSINESS: “BOD Director Vacancy Selection-Oath of Office and Seating”. NO APPLICANT(S) NAMES OR BIOS?

.

Lapora promised an “informational blurb” in advance of the so-called selection process, but didn’t. WHY THE SECRECY?

.

As an aside, the Associations Policy and Procedures Handbook, specifically section 4.17,

describes a process regarding the selection of replacing a Board member that includes holding a “Special Meeting”. Not a Regular Board of Directors Meeting-A SPECIAL MEETING?

.

REGULAR MEETING, SPECIAL MEETING or NO MEETING-DOES IT MATTER?

“BLURB”?
