The printed pages in the binder are a thing of the past: effective immediately, we are starting a new procedure for reserving our tennis courts - go to www.reservemycourt.com and sign up for an account; it's free. There will be a link to email the administrator for a facility code you will need. If you ever find it necessary to prove your reservation, you can print out your reservation confirmation. There is also a way to reserve courts via telephone.

If you have not voted on the changes to the covenants and by-laws, or aren't sure if you already have, please contact Alicia Gatto at secretary@pacesclubhoa.org, she can look it up to let you know. Remember, this has been in the works for over a few years so you may have voted awhile ago.

The voting form is now available for download / print on the Documents page You may print the form and submit it by mail directly to the lawyers (address is at the top of the form), to Riverside Property Management, or to Alicia Gatto (4322 Sugar Maple Chase). You may also contact a board member via email or phone to arrange a time to meet and take care of it in person. Some current and many former board members are Notaries, so this option could be the most convenient.

Whether you vote yes or no to the changes, the board appreciates your participation in this important endeavour.

First, let me say the Board was very pleased at the turn out last night at the annual meeting, we had more there than last year. This is the first time in a very long time, maybe ever, that we had more than 5 candidates running. We thank everyone who came to the meeting or sent their proxy ballot in their absence. Unfortunately, as those there know, we did not have enough for a quorum (needed 106, we had 71) and thus not enough to take an official vote for the board members. However, we did take the ballots and counted them as a survey to garner the wishes of those voting, and in doing so, chose the top 5 to be appointed as the next board of directors, as per our by-laws. The result of the survey is as follows:

• Alicia Gatto - 65
• Clayton Little - 61
• Craig Moore - 50
• Scott McConnell - 43
• Adam Price - 38
• Todd Hanlin - 37
• Terri Karp - 32

As you see, the numbers were very close. Another incentive to pass the amended covenants and by-laws is that one of the changes, as it relates to the annual elections, is that it would allow for electronic voting in addition to mail-in proxies or physical attendance. Surely this would help us reach that quorum!

The Board also appreciated the dialogues that were opened last night.There were many good questions and suggestions we took down for our next board meeting.

Speaking of the next meeting, it will be Monday December 5 at 630pm. If you would like to attend, please email Tamara Owen or any current board member to let us know and we will let you know where it will be.

Welcome to Scott and Adam, and thanks again to Chuck and Kelly for their many years of service to our community with great results!
