June 1st Special Meeting

Don Halbach started this special meeting saying the ruling that Pat Burke made on a motion to remove herself as President was in error. He also said that it really didn’t matter since she resigned from the Board. He praised Pat Burke as a hard worker that did a lot for this Village and that he will miss her.
He said the executive meeting that followed Pat Burk's resignation was also improper. He said organizational sessions to affirm a replacement director has to be done at a regular or special meeting.

Director Bergsma was participating via the internet cam. Directors Gagan and Pelletier were considered present by phone.

When the Board opened the floor to the audience only one Villager responded with asking the Board to restate how each Director voted on the motion for Pat Burke’s removal as President. Secretary Montalvo complied with the following, Pelletier was absent, Steffensen voted no, White, Guerra, Montalvo voted yes, and the remaining Directors abstained.

The Board approved Virginia Martin as Pat Burke’s replacement, Don Halbach as the new President, Don Pelletier as the new Vice President, and Annita White beating out Virginia Martin as the Assistant Vice President.

At the conclusion of the meeting Don Halbach made the comment that the Robert’s Rules say when a Village Director abstains, it goes to the prevailing side and is a yes vote.
