Hoi,
<grin> it is a great shitstorm</grin> Do remember that a community chosen
representative voted the other community chosen representative out. It is
not a case of he must be good, the others are bad. It is more complicated.
Thanks,

The Florida statute(
https://www.flsenate.gov/Laws/Statutes/2011/617.0808 ) referred
to earlier says that If a director is elected by a class, chapter, or other
organizational unit, or by region or other geographic grouping, the
director may be removed only by the members of that class, chapter, unit,
or grouping. Do they even have ability to remove the person in the first
place given the action of the board why are they also determining the next
steps in the replacing our representative.

And
for
community members who voted for him, that context could mean we
should
also no longer have confidence in him elsewhere
in the projects, or in
the
board, or have no bearing on either thing
whatsoever. Not knowing just
means there's no indication what to trust.
I'd rather lose the trust and confidence in those 8 Board members than in
him without knowing what was the cause for his disbarment. ;)
Maybe the Board by-laws have to be changed, too. Throwing out a
community-elected member like this, without providing a reason, is no way
to deal with the community who elected this member. It should be
mandatory
that the Board provides reasons together with the
announcement to avoid
exactly this kind of discussions and speculations, not a day (or more)
later.
And as for no-cause disbarments for community-elected members in a
community-driven environment - uhm... I don't need to delve into that,
everyone can see the problem. The Board should just not be allowed to
disbar community-elected members without a cause, as that undermines the
authority of the community over those seats on the Board.
