Good afternoon everyone!
Thank you to all that were able to attend the meeting earlier this month. It was a great turn out - almost 50 people present, and not sure how many were online! The get together afterwards was also a lot of fun. Thanks so Amber for all her hard work, and Kim for the beautiful set up!
To help answer some questions that have been asked and make sure everyone has clarity on the two boards, we are sending out a recap on what was discussed, and decided on, regarding the legal progress and the elected board members:
The checks for the $10K legal retainer fee were collected and turned over to the DSA Treasurer for deposit. Vining Law has received the executed engagement letter along with the retainer. Thank you to all that pledged money to this cause - we are underway!
Dixie Shores Association currently represents the neighborhood and will continue with those responsibilities until the legal process for the right of ways is completed and it is merged with DSCA. With the loss of both President and Vice President of DSA, voting was conducted to elect the replacement board members. This board is working with the attorney to help facilitate that process:
President: Rose Hammer
Vice President: Karen Nash
Treasurer: Paul Foster
Secretary: Mary Foster
Dixie Shores Community Association, Inc, was registered recently with the NC Secretary of State to help us secure the insurance needed for the neighborhood and to allow us to begin to put in place the structures and protocols needed for us to operate more efficiently. So while active and in place, DSCA is "standing in the wings" if you will, until the legal process is completed. At that time, when merged with DSA, DSCA will continue the forward movement, growth and participation in our neighborhood. Voting was conducted and the following were elected to be the first board. They are actively putting things in place to help make a smooth transition when the time arrives:
President: Amber Garlatz
Vice President: Dawn Morton
Treasurer: Keith Textor
Secretary: Chris Heivly
In speaking with Steve Vining, he has tasked the DSA board to provide as much supporting documentation as possible of activity going back at least 20 years. If we can go back further, that's even more to our benefit. For those neighbors who were past board members or participated in DSA in any manner over the decades, any information you can provide would be greatly appreciated. You are welcome to contact me directly with anything you may have. Once we have gotten this info to Steve he will start the legal process. He anticipates it taking about six months - from the time he receives the info - so we have an urgency to get this info to him!
If this is unclear or if you have any questions, please feel free to reach out.
So proud of our neighborhood coming together the way we have!
Enjoy your week!
Rose Hammer
Dixie Shores Association
President
