There was a general discussion of the status of ABC’s request for additional staff compensation information. Delegate Frank Turner had written a letter to the Counsel for the General Assembly in April requesting an opinion regarding the obligation of homeowners associations to provide compensation data pertaining to their individual employees to interested members. Specifically, ABC is interested in obtaining specific data pertaining to the salaries and bonuses of all individual CA staff members. To date, we have received salary data broken down by broad ranges for some key staff members, and most of the specific data is not identified by individual but rather by position title.
We are awaiting a response from the Office of Counsel to the General Assembly.
There was some discussion of the wide range of CA employees who apparently receive free Package Plan Plus memberships to the sports facilities. We have discovered that the criteria used for awarding such perks is knowledge of all CA facilities and operations. The board unanimously approved a motion introduced by Tom Scott to send a letter to President Nelson requesting the job descriptions of all individuals receiving this benefit.
The board will not meet in July, and no meeting has been scheduled for August as of this time.
