Board Meeting #2 on 10/3/2023

The HOA's board met for its regular monthly board meeting on October 3, 2023 at 6:30PM. This meeting was on Zoom, rather than as a regular, in-person meeting at the Brookland Baptist Church Northeast.

Noticeably absent were the financial statements, which should have been provided to board members in time for them to examine them, and they also should have been posted to the HOA's website at the time of the meeting. The Financial Statement was finally posted on the website on October 9, 2023.

The Treasurer's Report at the meeting was skimpy, and there was no discussion of the bids for the 2024 management contract.

What most Members (homeowners) will not know is that the board held a second meeting on October 3rd after the Zoom meeting ended. The second meeting was lengthy, in-person, and was devoted to a discussion of the bids (plural) for the management contract.

Was any decision made about the management contract for 2024? There is a reason why the board must not delay longer. Should that second meeting have been open to the Members?

Even though the Board met in-person on very short notice, that second meeting should have been broadcast on Zoom, recorded, and archived for later viewing by the Association Members (homeowners).

There is insufficient transparency by the Board of Directors. They conduct too much business in pre-board meetings and special meetings (like Meeting #2 on October 3).

Will Minutes of that second meeting be published on the website this week?
