Leilani members convene informal meeting to draft election motions; no binding votes
Summary
At a non‑quorum meeting, members of the Leilani Community Association drafted motions and directions for the January election packet, outlined a ranking process for motions, and emphasized limits on the election booklet size (roughly 10 pages).
The meeting opened with the Moderator, head of the bylaws committee, explaining that the afternoon session was informal and that "there will be no legally binding votes here today," as the group lacked a quorum. The purpose, the Moderator said, was to flesh out motions to include in the election package that will be mailed in January so the full membership can vote.
Members discussed the mechanics of drafting, seconding, and ranking motions. The Moderator described a final ranking process in which attendees will each cast three ranked votes to indicate priorities for the election packet, and noted a practical constraint: the ElectionBuddy distributed packet limits the printed material to about ten pages, so the board must prioritize which motions to include. The meeting concluded with the Moderator asking volunteers to prepare draft language for the November board meeting so legal review can be sought before the election mailing.
