”closed“ session?? It would be best for the election committee to solicit questions from the general membership of OPA rather than think they have a stranglehold on the issues. Unfortunately the election committee has developed a credibility problem given the lack of transparency.

For reference, the above message is a reply to a message where:
Hey Joe, I need to amend the comments I made about the EC. While it is operational, I did review as you had highlighted the Maryland HOA rules and review the committee procedures and the ability to go into close session and general that has been established since 1977 by the state of Maryland it is allowable to go in a close session for specific things and I believe as well as other people have in the past on the committee that going into close session for discussion on the forum questions is a valid exercise, and all those questions are typed out and prepared for review at the forum. Nothing secret or nefarious about that process. It’s simply to provide integrity to the question and answer. With the candidates in a live forum . Also committees are allowed to go into close session to discuss legal and professional activities, business, etc., and that would cover the review of pending bids, etc. that are than presented in an open form to the membership at least that’s my take on it,… thanks.
