Miscellaneous Thoughts

Miscellaneous Thoughts - Works in Progress - To be Continued.:

Special Election or assignment? 

So, since Phyllis retired there is a VP spot open. What are we going to to do? Actually we are not involved in it. The President has the option to let things roll naturally and pick the next candidate on the election list, which will be John Gluszak. John is a good choice, he has held this job for the past 2 years, and is good at it. No need for a special elections. 

On the other hand,  another idea might be to hold a special election at the next Delegates Assembly to elect the open Vice President. I nominate Esther Sutofsky!! Lets not lose sight that the different between the winner and the loser in Presidential race was 36 votes.

The Messenger Club will continue with it bi-weekly meetings. The subject of these meeting will vary, but will always center on subjects of valued interest to the Village.The club's basic purpose will be to focus on topical issues in relation to the betterment of Century Village. These issues will include, but not be limited to, financial, transportation, communication, beautification and any other subjects that involve the entire village. We will have lively discussions and will seek opinions and review those items which will focus on the betterment of the Village for everyone.

On the Subject of our President's first Order, Wi-Fi. I have some questions. First off how has the problem with the Tower been solved? Do we actually need a tower, will PB Airport approve it?  Why are we not investigating the introduction of Wi-Fi by each of the Associations? So that those Associations that want Wi-Fi can vote it in and those that don't, can vote it out. Also the cost. The Village wide Wi-Fi has been quoted at anywhere fro $2-5 million. A 3 story Association with 42 units looks like it can be brought in at under 5 thousand dollars. Our Presidents attitude is that all of these problems will be solved as we go along, So lets start, and lets spend some money.


Voting and Numbers!!

On the subject of delegate attendance at the Delegate Assembly. Usually the Delegate Count is around or less than 200. So how come the count now went to over 300. Where did those extra 100 come from? I want, I demand to see the sign in sheets!!

Your comments on any of this stuff is welcome. There is no cutoff, just lets not use meanness, impolite remarks or nastiness and be germane to the conversation.

Much More later.

  2. Gary - I am concerned because I can't figure our how you come to a difference of 35 votes between presidential candidates. I see it as more than 70.Also - where you say something about attendance, it is important to realize there are two separate sign-in sheets - one for the election another for the meeting. So - if 300 voted only +200 of them were interested enough to stay for the meeting itself. I don't think there has been any hanky-panky with the election, but then again, that is my opinion.

    1. Yes there was a difference of 70 votes, take 35 off one candidate and put to the other, now the score could be tied. Only 35 votes.As fob you 2nd item, maybe . But to resolve it lets see the election sign in sheets.
      Your continued interest is gratifying

    5. I know that the count for the assembly was not 300. I was there. It was 200 something. More than we have had in the past. At least get your facts straight. I would not vote for Esther for a VP. She is a name caller and disruptive.

    6. Comments also must be germane and add to the conversation. Did you do that?

    7. The logged in count for the election was in excess of 300. The delegate assembly sign in number was near 200. So some delegates went home after voting , Or the Registered number was inflated.
