We have a general membership meeting on Monday, January 23rd at 7:00 PM at 7966 Cabrini (the Keene home).
The board of directors met this evening and prepared an agenda for the meeting. Last meeting, we voted to include a fourth board member and to check on the approval process with our legal counsel. That vote was held in compliance with our by-laws, and so Duel Brown is officially a fourth board member through July 2023 when we renew all positions. Duel was included in our board meeting this month.

Budget notes:
- When we updated our by-laws, we changed our fiscal year to match our summer annual meeting. This summer, we will vote on a new annual budget. Since our budget from last year only went through the calendar year, our treasurer has prepared a budget for 2023 now. We’ll vote on this budget now, and then on a new fiscal year budget in July. Thank you, Mary, for doing double the work this year as we adjust. Dues payments will not change and are still paid in January each year.
- The 2023 proposed budget includes two maintenance items that are not annual payments. This puts our budget over our expected income by $250. Last year’s expenses were under our budget by almost $2000, and we have a large reserve account, so the board feels comfortable with this amount. The two maintenance items are pressure washing the tennis courts (currently every three years) and removing the scotch broom from the park (one time project).
