How Many Votes Are Enough?

I have read Dave's article regarding Delegate's Votes. The more I think about it I can see that if this is allowed it will create many problems.
We have a lot of people or corporations who have bought up condos. If they so desired, they can speak to the Board, if there is a Board or people who are disinterested in their Board to become the Delegate. As well Mark Levy has foreclosed on many condos in the village. What if he becomes a delegate to his many holdings. Can you justs imagine what will happen and the votes that can be swayed so that a corporation or individual can dictate what happens in our Village. Delegates should think very carefully before they vote to allow more than 1 vote to a delegate.

OVPU

Hi All,

This morning we had a really good meeting with the ONE VOTE committee. Our intrepid Randy headed the group and gave everyone a lot of food for thought. In his own inimitable way he explained in detail how we may be able to get this off the ground.

At the beginning of the meeting, with a show of hands, I asked the committee and the guests how they felt about continuing with the research of the program. We got a really good show of hands. We have a very intelligent group and it was evident by the questions they asked. We have a lot of work to do but this is doable.

Our next meeting is September 22 at 11AM in the UCO office. I hope more of you will come. We welcome as much input from our residents as we can get in order to make sure we cover every base.
