November 13 -
This Saturday is the member’s meeting of District 3, Socorro’s center. Trustee Amaro’s letter linked below stresses the importance of attendance. Those of you who attended last year’s District 3 meeting will remember the SEC lawyer’s attempt to discredit and throw out the election that overwhelmingly elected Ms. Amaro. This move to override the members failed but unfortunately the attempts to take over the district and annual meetings have not stopped. There were no lawyers present at the District 2 meeting this past Saturday but a check of the tapes of the meeting here will give you an idea of the blatant and arrogant attempts to take over the meeting from the members and shut down the meeting by delaying tactics. There can be no overruling of the actions of the members by anyone especially self appointed arbitrators. When members pass a resolution, no one has the right or the power to stop them from going to the next (2015) Annual Members’ Meeting. The lawyers and management have blocked member resolutions for the past two years and that has to stop. They tell us that if we don’t like their actions to take it to court. This Saturday’s District 3 meeting is a court of public opinion. Attend and speak.

Those of you who have watched the tapes of the District 2 meeting will remember Mrs. Eileen Latasa announcing to the meeting that, Charlene Wagner, could not make a motion as her husband, Charlie Wagner, had registered a joint membership and received the armband that gives the wearer the vote on issues for our membership. That is the only privilege that the band confers and the lack of an armband does not strip a district member from the right to speak, make a motion, etc. The point was not argued at the meeting in the interests of saving time but it should be noted in case attempted restriction of member rights during Saturday’s District 3 meeting. See Article I – Membership. Section3 – Joint Membership.
