THE APRIL 9TH OPEN BOARD MEETING AGENDA. TONIGHT, APRIL 15TH IS THE WPA REGULAR MONTHLY MEETING AND WE DON'T HAVE AN AGENDA POSTED.

On April 7th, the Wedgefield Examiner posted a article regarding a open board meeting scheduled on April the 9th.  We stated that as long as they had called the meeting, posted a notice near the front gate, and on the website, they should have posted a agenda.  Later, on April 7th, after all their previous postings, the WPA board posted the following agenda.

Notice the agenda items.  Why wouldn't all, but one, of these items be discussed at our regular monthly meeting?  First, why not post the agenda, when you post the meeting?  Then, what about the extension for the bulkhead, pot holes - been there months - if not years, 2 new members to the Compliance Committee, and the Grounds Contract, couldn't wait for an open meeting?  Meeting attendance is down, but those residents who care know to hold the 3rd Tuesday of the month for the WPA monthly board meeting.  As residents, we should be able to view our board members in discussion, and vote.  These so called, frequently called, open meetings, have even less attendance than the regular monthly meetings.
 
 
The only real reason to call a meeting, may have been discussion of legal matters which may have pertained to delinquent accounts.  Even then, your board could have handled that issue, at the regular monthly meetings, without disclosing the names of individuals.  Quite frankly, with the moves of this board, the Legal Committee Chair and committee, this board should put legal discussions out in the open.   We are paying for legal advice, with our association assessment dollars, and receiving poor service.  Legal Chair Garrison, could easily bring a report to the table from his committee.  In fact, the committee is composed of board members, with the exception of one.  Who are those board members?  They are DeMarchi, Garrison, and President Walton.  The same group who didn't feel a need to seek legal opinion on conflict of interest, and who recommended hiring an attorney, who stated he didn't have experience working with associations.
 
Where's the agenda for tonight's meeting.
