Jolly Time MANAGER'S REPORT continued on page 10 We recently received notice from K. Hovnanian that they have vacated two of their four Board seats. Therefore, the Board of Directors has set a special election meeting on Wednesday, Aug. 3, at 6 pm in the Ballroom to fill the two vacated seats. If you are interested in serving on the Board of Directors, please prepare a Candidate Statement and return it to the management office. If you wish for your Candidate Statement to be included in the Breeze before the election, the form should be returned no later than Friday, June 10 at 12 pm. If you do not wish to have the form included in the Breeze, the form must be submitted no later than Friday, June 24 at 12 pm in order to have your name appear on the Secret Ballot to be mailed to the membership. The decision to hold a special meeting was made because the governing documents state that the builders rights to the two seats expired on the 10th anniversary of the first close of escrow in the community; the first close of escrow occurred on Oct. 25, 2005. The governing documents also provide that until 100 percent of the homes have sold, K. Hovnanian shall have authority to elect at least 20 percent of the Board. The Board of Directors consulted with the association's legal counsel on the method required to fill the two seats. Legal counsel advised the Board that as these positions were to be elected in April, 2017, they are not subject to appointment and must be filled through a special election. The special election schedule is as follows: May 23: Call for Candidate notices mailed with monthly billing statement June 10: Deadline to submit candidate statement if you wish for it to be included in the Breeze June 24: Deadline to submit candidate statement to be included on the ballot June 29: Record date set June 29: Meet the Candidates night at 6 pm in the Ballroom June 29-July 1: Election packet to be mailed to all homeowners Aug. 2: Inspections of Election count the ballots Aug. 3: Special election at 1 pm in the Ballroom SPECIAL ELECTION GENERAL NEWS
