Cedar Run HOC Election 5/10/2017

BE SURE TO CAST YOUR VOTE

The Cedar Run Homeowners Corporation (aka Master Board) will conduct its annual meeting (and election) on May 10th, 2017.  It is vitally important that as many homeowner participate as possible.

Reason #1: Without homeowner participation, it is less likely to see directors elected who meet the needs and preferences of the community.
Reason #2: If there aren't enough homeowners participating to constitute a quorum (approximately 82 homeowners, i.e. 20%), there can be no election.  The meeting will need to be rescheduled and repeated until a quorum is reached.

How many director seats are up for election/re-election?
Four of the twelve seats are up for election/re-election.  Four homeowners have nominated themselves to fill these positions, but there will likely be others who will nominate themselves from the floor of the actual meeting.

Why another election already?
The last Master Board election was held in August 2016 based on a court order.  It was a special election with the purpose of electing a board to take control of the association at the end of receivership.  The timing had more to do with certain legal milestones that had to be cleared.  Cedar Run HOC's bylaws still require an election of four directors each year in May despite the recent special election.  They will continue to occur in May each year.

I'd like to vote, but I cannot attend on May 10th.  How can I participate?
You can participate via proxy.  The proxy has two options. One option allows you to choose the nominated candidates for whom you'd like to cast your vote.  The second option is to delegate an individual to vote on your behalf at the meeting.
