Are you kidding me !! The reason for expanding the Board to five members was to assure that a quorum could be established in order to conduct the District’s business, ON OUR BEHALF.
Having been elected to very many boards over the past forty years, I have always structured my plans and schedule around my elected responsibilities to serve the community.
SO, what’s the deal !! Which two of the five members ARE meeting their obligation to us?
