As part of the boards commitment to reach out to the community and foster open communication the board has selected 4 dates to hold open board meetings for the community. The first meeting is Saturday May 28th at 6pm by the pool. This is the Saturday during Memorial Day weekend and usually the busiest day in the community. This day should provide an opportunity for a large number of community members to discuss issues and ideas they may have with the community. The second meeting is also a Saturday, August 13th at 6pm by the pool. We thought that this day would give the community members an opportunity to discuss how the summer was going at Island Gate. Friday Sept 9th at 7:30 in town hall will be our third meeting. This meeting is the meeting where we hold our board elections and share our preliminary budget for 2012. Your input and vote are very important. Finally on January 20th 2012 the board will hold a meeting at 1 Seabreeze Court to share our final budget and receive comments on the community and discuss plans for 2012. We thought we would let you know about these dates as far in advance as possible to allow you to plan to attend these important meetings. We hope you can attend.
