Voting for the Period of Review Has Begun

by Maggie Geppert, Executive Officer

1st February 2021

Voting for the Period of Review went live on Monday, February 1^st at 12:00 am EST (currently -5:00 UTC) and will continue through 11:59 pm on Monday, February 8th.  At this time, all members can vote to remove individual Board members from their positions. You can review all the questions posed to members in the Period of Review board and watch us answer the questions here:

If you wish to vote and do not currently volunteer for the Continuing Committee, you will need to purchase an active premium membership. The minimum purchase is a one-month subscription for $5.  You can purchase this in the Promenade.

We will be using an outside website (OpaVote) to conduct the vote.  This will ensure both that each member gets only one vote and that those votes are confidential.  Due to this use of an outside site, any member wishing to vote will also need to make sure that their email address on file with the Continuing Committee is current.  Each email address will only get one vote, so if multiple members of a household are using the same email address, please change them so that they each have a unique one.  To check on your email address, in the forum please go to User Control Panel --> Profile --> Account Settings. You can see a preview of what the ballot looks like here.

We appreciate the feedback of our members. We have taken it seriously over the years and have changed how we do things here. In fact, this vote came about because members in the past complained that the Period of Review was meaningless because it had no teeth. We thank you for being members of this community. Now, go vote!
