For instance, we are told that the current election bylaws amendments “…embody some strategies to highlight existing ‘transparencies’ and to simplify the election process…” when in reality, the proposed amendment takes away any membership control and gives the Nominating Committee 100% authority over who will sit on the board representing members. 

If this proposed amendment was in place last year, Sue, Christine and Debbie would NOT be sitting on the board this year because membership would not have been able to override the clique of the Nominating Committee.  If this proposal passes, the Nominating Committee will have the ability, at its discretion, to place as many “highly qualified” friends on the ballot as it likes.  We here at WUNCRA submit that Sue, Christine and Debbie would not even have made last year’s ballot even though membership determined through the election process that they are “the most qualified” to serve us on OUR board!!!

There is not one positive thing favorable to membership about this proposed bylaw amendment that we can determine here at WUNCRA.

If this Board wants to talk about “transparency,” how about some forensic accounting to determine where the $5 million went from the sale of the building that was owned free and clear by NCRA?  Hmmm, maybe we’d find out something that they don’t want us to know about?  Instead, they want to further muddy the election process.

Stop the cliques!!! Vote NO! on Article IX!!!

Wake Up, NCRA!!!

P.S.  Please send this to ten NCRA members so that they know about how bad Article IX is for membership, too!!! Vote “NO!” on Article IX!!!
