News: Special Meeting
FPNA NewsOn Thursday, February 19, 2009 at 6:30 p.m., at the Flamingo Building at 433 Flamingo Drive, West Palm Beach, a Special Meeting of the Association will be held for the purpose of conducting a vote of the General Membership on proposed Bylaw changes.

By now you should have received a packet in the mail that included for your review a copy of this proposal, along with a copy of our current bylaws, with references to the proposal document in the left margin. As mentioned in the packet, the proposal is being presented to you based on member requests for change of election procedures, to ensure a ballot to each member, to allow for self nomination, to specify a real location for ballots, and to create a simpler, easier to read document. The changes proposed are summarized on the back of this letter.

A majority of all Association Members (a “quorum”) must be present, in person or by proxy, at the meeting, in order for this business to be conducted. It is VERY IMPORTANT that you either attend or provide a proxy in order to conduct business at this meeting.

We will open the floor for discussion during the meeting, so please bring any questions you might have. In the meantime, feel free to contact any board member to discuss the proposal.

VOTING BY PROXY

If you are unable to attend the Special Meeting afore mentioned and wish to vote by proxy, please note the following:

1. A proxy is for the purpose of appointing another person to vote for you as you specifically direct (except for non-substantive items) in the event that you might not be able to attend the meeting. It must be signed by all owners of the unit or the one among them that they designated on a voting certificate.
2. The proxy should be submitted to the Association prior to the scheduled time of the meeting. It should be mailed to the Association at: P.O. Box 1112, West Palm Beach, FL 33402. It is encouraged that the proxy be submitted as long before the meeting as possible to be registered by the vote date.
If you appoint a proxy and later decide you will be able to attend the meeting in person, you may withdraw your proxy when you register at the meeting.

NOTICE: Proposed Bylaw Change
FPNA NewsDear Flamingo Park Property Owner:

Enclosed please find for your review a copy of the Proposed Bylaw Change. You will also find a copy of our current bylaws, with references to the proposal document in the left margin. The proposal is presented to you based on member requests for change of election procedures, to ensure a ballot to each member, to allow for self nomination, to specify a real location for ballots, and to create a simpler, easier to read document. Changes to the bylaws include:

Elections
• A ballot to be distributed to each voting member, mailed no less than 20 days before an election,
• The ballot box location will be updateable,
• Each member may self-nominate, and
• Each nominee to be listed on the ballot,

Organization
• Similar matters grouped,
• Definitions at front,
• Paragraph titles,
• Short active sentences, and lots of white space (important for easier reading).

Administration
• Staggered terms of two years,
• Adoption of annual budget,
• Dual signatures for checks of $1,000 or more,
• Corporate owners are asked to designate a representative for notice and voting,
• A Quorum is defined as 20 percent, and Directorʼs decisions are made by majority vote.

The items that did not change in this proposal:
• Each dues-paying General Member will still have a vote, and
• Voting districts remain the same.

We have also posted these documents on our website, along with our Articles of Incorporation and Plat Map. You can find these www.flamingopark.org

For those who were able to attend the General Meeting on January 21st, we thank you for your feedback. We will hold another workshop on Tuesday, February 10, 2009 at 6:30 p.m. at the Armory Art Center to answer any questions you might have regarding the proposal. We will then hold a Special Meeting on Thursday, February 19th at 6:30 p.m. at the Armory Art Center to conduct a vote of the General Membership to ask for your approval of the proposal. Please join us on these important dates.

In the meantime, please see the enclosed Notice of Nomination Committee for those wishing to run for office. You must contact the Nomination Committee in order to be considered for election and to have your name added to the ballot.

If you have any questions, please contact me, or any board member, at your earliest convenience. Sincerely,

Penny Payne

Getting together to share good food and good times is one of the favorite pastimes among the friendly neighbors in West Palm Beach’s historic Flamingo Park neighborhood. Out of this affection for food and one another has arisen “Create a Stir!

In celebration of our Flamingo tradition, the book also incorporates more than 100 photos, captured by resident and committee member Tim Rivers, of tropical and flamingo collectables found in Flamingo Park homes. It also features recipe and contributor indexes and is spiral bound so that it lays flat for easy use.

“Create A Stir!” includes sidebars on the 49 contributors, along with short notes about the background or history of the recipes included. Recipes are organized as Appetizers, Soups & Salads, Buffet Dishes, Salsas, Sauces & Seasonings, Breads, Desserts, and Beverages.
