<div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr">Hi Glenn - I am in agreement that the focus of this off season is the pier. </div><div dir="ltr"><br></div><div dir="ltr">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?</div><div dir="ltr"><br></div><div dir="ltr">The meeting, as currently outlined, isn't simply finding out how the members feel, it's asking them to <i>vote </i>on funding proposals. If we don't take the time to get this right, what happens if the members vote "no"? </div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr">On Mon, Dec 3, 2018 at 5:33 PM Glenn Michael <<a href="mailto:glennwmichael@gmail.com">glennwmichael@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><div>Good Afternoon,</div><div><br></div><div>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.</div><div><br></div><div>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.</div><div><br></div><div>Thanks for reading this,</div><div><br></div><div>Glenn</div></div>
