Annual Meeting March 15th, 2011

The annual meeting of the Sammamish Waterway HOA will be at 7:00 pm, March 15th at the Lake WA School District meeting room, Redmond Town Center.

As called for in the SWC Declarations, we will conduct the regular business of the association, present a financial update and elect positions for the board of directors whose terms are expiring. If you wish to volunteer to join the board and have your name placed on the evening's ballot, please provide a short statement stating your interest.

A quorum of 40%+ of owners is required to hold a valid meeting. Your proxy and vote is greatly needed if you cannot attend. 40% does not sound like a lot, but in years past it has been close, so please attend or send your proxy back. If a quorum cannot be reached, the meeting must be rescheduled at additional cost and of course would require again the gathering of owners.

Following the meeting, an update on the restoration project will be given and there will be an opportunity for questions.
