Who is reading Lanikea Blog (in Ukraine)?

A funny thing happened... I was checking some stats of this blog and noticed that it was getting over a thousand hits but has only three (3) "official" registered followers (you can get blog updates automatically by registering as a "follower" or access it manually anytime you want). I got curious... and went to blog's analytics, which identified the following countries from which people were accessing and reading this blog: United States (duh), Canada, China, U.K., Russia, India, Germany, Malaysia, Belgium, New Zealand, and Ukraine (!?). I wonder, who in the world is reading Lanikea community blog in the Ukraine? In any event, I say: diakuju!

Old habits die hard... When is the next Board Meeting at Lanikea?

Lanikea has never been known for great communication between the Board of Directors and the Owners. One of the issues which has always bothered me is that the Board meetings are seldom announced in advance to the Owners.

Typically, at Lanikea Board meeting notices are posted by the elevators only three (3) days before the meeting, which is the minimum required by Lanikea Bylaws. Frankly, I find it quite ridiculous, especially since Lanikea has a large percentage of out-of-site Owners, who would appreciate more advanced notice.

I have brought this issue up to the Board and management's attention several times, including at the beginning of this year, which coincidented with my appointment to the Board. An advanced meeting schedule was announced and posted on Lanikea's Bulletin Board and I put it in this Blog.

But since then, additional meetings were scheduled without the advance notice to the Owners. Back to business as usual...

I've heard complaints from the Board members that few Owners participate in the Board meetings. Perhaps if the meetings were publicized in advance, there would be a better participation. It's common sense folks...

BTW: the next Board Meeting is on June 15th, have you heard anything?
