Recently you received an election package, which included ballots, candidate profiles and instructions regarding proper voting procedures.

Unfortunately and inadvertently, a couple of candidate profiles were excluded from the package. Again, this was a simple, but unfortunate mistake. Clearly, these bios being accidentally omitted will have a clear effect on the fair voting process.

To that end, we are going to reschedule the election meeting and we are also going to resend the complete election package, which will include ALL updated candidate profiles as well as ballots. As far as the BeckerBallot portal — the information provided in that format was and is correct and complete. As such, we will simply extend the voting period on that portal to coincide with the new meeting date.

The new meeting date is scheduled for Tuesday, September 14th at 7pm. All meeting details and ZOOM access credentials will be included in the new package. Please note, any “paper” vote received as part of the original packet will be discarded, with the ballot pertaining to the September 14, 2021 meeting date being the accepted ballot.

We are truly sorry for any inconvenience this has caused to you as the owner and all candidates who are selflessly willing to give their time to helping maintain our terrific community.
