PART III, OF THE WPA MARCH MEETING: IS OUR WPA COMPLIANCE COMMITTEE IGNORING THE VERY POLICY MANUAL, THAT THEY CHANGE AGAIN, AND AGAIN, TO SUIT THEIR OWN INDIVIDUAL NEEDS AND WANTS?

Compliance Chair, Garrison presented at least two policy manual changes, during the March meeting.  The changes were in regard to burning, and signs.  I was at the meeting, and I took notes, but I searched the WPA website today, and couldn't find them.  Here is what the policy manual states, regarding changes:


4.02 A motion to change the Policy Manual must be presented at an open Board meeting, posted on the WPA website for resident comments, and NOT voted on until the following Board meeting. 
I'm not surprised that they weren't listed.  I checked the obvious places on the site:  Home Page, Information from the Board Page, the Approved Policy Manual (note:  There is a grid listing all of the changes, on this page.)  We had this problem before, with many of the current board members.  They just kept voting changes for months, without publishing them, and giving residents the opportunity to comment.  When it was brought to their attention, they mass reproved them in one meeting.

Here is a Wedgefield knock, knock joke.  Knock, Knock, What happens to a resident who writes the board, regarding transgressions BY BOARD MEMBERS, of the governing documents?  Sorry, but true, you get a new policy to accommodate, the offending board members' transgressions.

When board member, McMillin wanted to burn in an ugly pot, on his vacant lot, after he had sent invitations to the "burn", he went to the board table, and tried to change the policy, before the party, despite the fact that there weren't any complaints in the correspondence file, and no mention of problems during the board meetings.   Board member, DeMarchi, declared that "he was tired of legislating for idiots, who break all the rules".  Just another addition to the knock, knock, joke.  Here is what we had all been told,  in the July 2014 Wedgefield Wragg, previous to McMillin, bringing the change to the table.


"NO DUMPING 
NO BURNING 
NO EXCEPTIONS"
During the time that we were awaiting the board's changes in behalf of board member McMillin, he held several "burns" in his ugly pot.  In fact, it still sits there with wood in it, ready to go today.  Since I was at the board meeting, I heard the first reading, and I believe the word "pot" is contained in it.  I can't verify it for you, because your board hasn't followed the policy manual, that they are changing again, in behalf of a fellow board member's whims, and haven't published it, for our review.  Remember, the old saying, "a chicken in every pot"?  If your board passes this change to the policy manual, we'll change the saying to "a pot in every Wedgefield yard"!

WOULDN'T YOU LOVE THIS NEXT TO YOU?
IT COULD BE COMING TO A YARD NEAR YOU, THANKS TO A VOTE BY THIS BOARD!


The board also had a first reading, for a policy manual change, regarding signs.  I had written the board, regarding board member, Walton's signs on boats, that were making his street look like a used boat yard.  Again, I can't provide the specific change in language, because your board has not posted it.  Here is the picture, I had sent to the board.


After I wrote the board, it could appear, that board member, McMillin, had decided to punish a resident who had the audacity, to write the board, about transgressions by a board member.  He then placed the following signs it his yard, and on his vacant (not really) lot.

One, might think that he is testing just how far this board will allow him to go, as he violates policy, and strikes back at residents, who speak out.  It doesn't appear that he was concerned about this board sanctioning fellow board members, because the next sign, was crude, rude, and disgusting.  HERE IT IS:


I'm so use to the cover up game this board plays, that I didn't bother to write the board.  Your board, covered it up at the board table, I believe calling it a Christmas display.  It wasn't.  McMillin  lives on William Screven, as I do, and the painting has my house number painted on it, and was crafted by one of his family members.  I always tell you when something is a rumor.  The rumor is that several members of this board, met with   McMillin about this sign, for almost 3 hours, and he refused to take it down.  No self discipline, or honesty from this board.  In fact, in the case of the Santa SIGN, nothing but a cover up, from this gutless board. If it were anything else, and this board found this sign so appropriate, and unoffensive, perhaps they will ask McMillins' family artist, to paint one of these SIGNS, with Santa crapping on a house with their address on it, and hang it on their WEDGEFIELD PLANTATION ASSOCIATION HOME, in their pride, of their governance, in behalf of residents.  Other wise board, you truly are governing in a self service, to each other, gutless, ruthless, manor, and doing a poor job of covering it up.  Who are the IDIOTS, board member, DeMarchi?

Where is Legal Chair/COMPLIANCE CHAIR (conflict), Garrison?  Why hasn't he seen to the publishing of these proposed changes, to our policy manual? Is it because he is aware that they are as self serving to individual board members, as they are?
