If there is a quorum tormroow night, I hope that a majority will once again reject these “agenda driven” proposalsFor more than two years I have voiced opposition to the proposed OSHNA changes. I stand to gain nothing either way with regard to the organization. If there is a gain to me personally it is in the belief that a healthy and functional neighborhood association is in the best interest of our community.As is always the case in anything political there are those who think it is best to shut out dissenting voices or opposition. Look the Republican Party is suing to keep John Dingfelder off the County Commission ballot so that whoever wins the Republican primary will have no opponent in the general election. It is no different here in the OSHNA portion of Seminole Heights. As apparently Dirk Peter’s pointed out the other associations have a much broader definition of membership. The definition in South Seminole Heights I believe is unchanged from what was originally written in 1996. It pretty much summed up my viewpoint: if you live here or own property then you are a stakeholder and have a right to claim a vote and a seat at the table. If you believe in outreach how can you vote for by-laws that restrict participation?I have chosen to no longer be a paid member. I don’t believe in exclusion. The expulsion of members should have never occurred. At that point OSHNA crossed a line that should never have been crossed and ceased to be a neighborhood association, more concerned with power, control and ego than the common good of the community. Once there was a time that I bought memberships for new neighbors in the hope that it would encourage them to take an interest in their new community. I bought advertising not in expectation of recouping it in actual business but to support an event and the neighborhood, using the same logic I had used years before in selling neighborhood advertising: it is not solely about getting a monetary return but to support the community. What happened? The board took and wasted 4 grand on attorney’s fees against neighbors. I don’t support neighborhood businesses that don’t give a rats a** about the community where they are located so why should I support a not for profit association doing the same thing? More than any single event this torn at the core fabric of what brought all of us together. So no, I can’t see voting for provisions that give the board more control with less potential competition.If this is supposed to be about an inclusive and community driven association then why make it harder to participate? You can’t serve in certain capacities unless you have served on a committee; you can serve on a committee without the approval of the committee chair; a majority of the committees are chaired by board members. The circular reasoning is profound. It is not about meeting your neighbors where they are at but expecting them to meet the board members where they are at. That is not inclusive. It is tokenism masquerading as outreach.Two year terms, barriers to running for board positions and the shrinking of the stakeholder pool are not the signs of an organization dedicated to being representative of the community and it is about as legitimate as gerrymandered political districts. It is about people who think that they and their views are the community. These bylaw proposals don’t fix any of the real problems of the past two years. Those broken areas are not really addressed. These proposals will not help create a better neighborhood association. People with other ideas were not allowed to participate in crafting these proposals. A hand picked committee crafted these revisions. A committee chaired by a person anointed the Parliamentarian for years and yet did not even know the by-laws required the payment of dues to be a voting member while sitting on the board. That fact that it was not open to participation by any member with an interest is reason enough to vote them down. I won’t even begin to address the tortured logic that it took to schedule this vote when they were presented at a meeting that lacked a quorum to do business and they could not even be discussed.So to conclude as I began: If there is a quorum tormroow night, I hope that a majority will once again reject these “agenda driven” proposals.
