[Board] Special Board Meeting?

[Roy Briscoe]

Should we have a special board meeting that includes a presentation by Duncan and the board can hash out what the options are and what our next steps are? This process seems totally off the rails.

It seems, as a board, we are not even close to all being on the same page and not all us have the all information that is available. So that makes it very hard to make an informed decision as to how we should proceed let alone go to a special meeting with the PYC members when the board is not all in agreement for how to proceed.

My recommendation is to wait until the scheduled board meeting or schedule special
Board meeting to discuss the information and come to a consensus as a Board before we proceed with any plan.

Hi Glenn - I am in agreement that the focus of this off season is the pier.

The point I was driving at is that very little is going to change between December 17th and mid-January in terms of where we are in the permitting or bidding process, but a lot may change in terms of our understanding of solutions that we can present to the membership. For example, have we even explored a 2nd opinion on any of this?

The meeting, as currently outlined, isn't simply finding out how the members feel, it's asking them to vote on funding proposals. If we don't take the time to get this right, what happens if the members vote "no"?

Good Afternoon,

While I respect Scott's view on the scheduling of the special meeting, I feel that we should find out membership feelings on this sooner rather than later.

This issue is NOT complex. The pier needs to be repaired/replaced and that is it.  I know that Roy has made some great points (thank you Roy) concerning the house etc., but the focus at the moment is the pier.  We need to do this so that we are in business for next season...the permits are an issue, but the bigger issue is to get this done or we are out of the dock rental and fuel business in 2019.  The house and other stuff we can get to later.

Thanks for reading this,

Glenn
