AGM Election Results Announcement – October 22^nd:

Hello AGM Registrants,

Thanks to everyone who attended the AGM last night and voted. It was rewarding to see more than 50% of our Members participate and have their voice heard.

Below is the list of volunteers that were elected to the 2020/2021 Board of Directors:

• Frank Boddy (Returning Director)
• Denise Edwards (Returning Director)
• Vince Hosick (Returning Director)
• Craig Cameron (Returning Director)
• Rick Jocsak (Returning Director)
• Harold Toiviainen (Returning Previous Director)
• Jason Wilson (New Director)
• Brian Ingham (New Director)
• Bernadette Mitchell (New Director)

We’re well represented with 5 returning Directors from last year and 4 new Directors. For all those who volunteered and didn’t get elected this year, we thank you for your willingness to help out and better our community. Feel free to reach out to the Board if you’d still like to help out as we always need more volunteers.

The results of the Officers election saw the following individuals acclaimed to their roles:

• Frank Boddy (President)
• Denise Edwards (Vice-President)
• Harold Toiviainen (Vice-President)

The results of the four (4) Motions raised by Robin Bolton and seconded by Dave Jordan are as follows:

• Motion #6 – I move that the Directors obtain an opinion from a lawyer on the “Object” contained in the Letters Patent, which reads “To represent the owners of the cottages in the area in dealing with official bodies, other organizations and individuals.” The opinion should clarify the limits of the mandate of the Board, to “represent the owners of the cottages”, particularly as regards advocacy in local government issues.

Results: Defeated

• Motion #7 – I move that the Directors survey all Members, and receive approval by a majority of Members, prior to making any representation to the Township of Georgian Bay on any matter which would impact the Members’ property rights.

Results: Defeated

• Motion #8 – I move that the Directors obtain an opinion from a lawyer on the minimum legally required percentage of Members required to call a general meeting, and make the necessary change to By-Law #4 if 10% is the legally required minimum percentage.

Results: Defeated

• Motion #9 – I move that the Board of Directors be required to reinstate the Mission Statement on the SMLCA website by placing it next to the “SMLCA Letters Patent” and the “By-Law No. 4” pdf files in the “Executive” section of “About” on the website.

Results: Defeated

The motions presented in zoom below were all passed during the AGM:

• Motion 1 – It is moved that the agenda be accepted as distributed.
• Motion 2 – It is moved to adopt and approve the 2019 AGM Meeting Minutes as distributed.
• Motion 3 – It is moved that the financial statement be approved.
• Motion 4 – It is moved that a special resolution be approved to conduct a statement review instead of an audit.
• Motion 5 – It is moved that Kreston GTA of Markham be appointed as the Independent Statement Reviewer for the 2020/2021 fiscal year.
