First HOA meeting
As many of you already know, the first general Homeowners Association meeting was on October 25, 2017 at the Trappe Borough Hall. Representatives from 14 of the households were present. The meeting started at 6:40 pm
Michael Clement of MikeLen LLC represented the current HOA Board and the remaining, unsold property (the sample home). Michael presided over the meeting and explained many details about how the HOA was structured and answered some general questions regarding the HOA.
A secretary pro tem was elected (Mark Schaffer) to record the details of this first meeting. Then elections for the new HOA board were held. Michael explained how the term length of the board members was determined by the relative amounts of votes:
- The member with the most votes will have a 3-year term.
- The member with the 2nd-most number of votes will have a 2-year term.
- The member with the 3rd-most number of votes will have a 1-year term.
The 3 individuals elected to the new board are
- Mark Schaffer (8 votes)
- Matthew Caffrey (3 votes)
- Melanie D’Angelo (2 votes)
A total of 13 votes were cast (Michael abstained). The new board members decided to assume the following positions:
- President: Mark Schaffer
- Treasurer: Melanie D’Angelo
- Secretary: Matthew Caffrey
Michael tendered resignations of the current HOA board. He also submitted copies of the insurance policy, bank account information, HOA articles of incorporation, tax-exempt certificates, and other information needed by the board to commence official business.
Official business was completed at 7:20 pm.
Faithfully reported by the Secretary p.t.,
Mark Schaffer
