The Annual Meeting of the Fort Sumter House Association will be held in the lobby on Monday, October 28, 2013 at 6:30 PM.
If you are unable to attend, please complete the enclosed proxy statement naming someone you wish to represent and vote in your place. **If you will be absent, then your proxy is required to insure a quorum for the meeting.** Proxies should be submitted to the building manager prior to the day of the meeting. Your proxy may be mailed, faxed (see number below), hand delivered, or emailed to [email protected].
We will be discussing two proposed amendments to the Master Deed and Bylaws at the annual meeting. The first proposed amendment is to clarify the extent of the Association’s responsibility to insure the Property and enable the Association to make repairs in emergency situations. The second proposed amendment is to change the current “no pet” policy to a policy that allows dogs in Apartments on the first floor (only) and to allow cats in Apartments on all floors. A change to the “no pet” policy was requested by some Owners at the last annual meeting. A copy of both these amendments is attached.
As indicated previously in the letter dated September 12, 2013, there are three (3) seats on the Board of Directors up for election this year. As of today, the following names have been placed in nomination:
Steve Anastasion Apt 709
George Boniface Apt 406
Glenn Debiasi Apt 602 (incumbent)
Beth Dixon Apt 608 (incumbent)
You may use the enclosed ballot to select your preference to fill in the 3 available seats on the board. You may choose from the aforementioned nominees or write in the name of any other valid member of the Association who chooses to run. Please ensure that any write-in candidate is agreeable to serving the two-year term prior to submitting their name.
Unless otherwise noted, ballots and proxies must be submitted before 6:30 PM on October 28, 2013, so that voting results can be tabulated before the end of the Annual Meeting.
