What is not in the novella is any proof of the accusations that there is mold in the building and this mold made employees sick to the point where one quit.

Looking at the minutes of the Committee's February 8, 2024 meeting, a meeting member Suzanne Russell attended, there is no mention of this serious health issue Russell claimed in her novella! OPA's president and GM were both present at that committee meeting.

But lets go to the issue Russell raised at the board meeting on Saturday - a new, and considerably large building as opposed to a rehab of the existing structure.

The meeting minutes state: "We were excited to hear the details and see the plans for the RC renovations."

The minutes also state: "The committee took advantage of the opportunity to hear all that our GM John Viola had to say. He was very gracious with his time as he answered all our questions."

My take on all this? The Racquet Sports Committee should be eliminated asap -- along with some others.
