By-Law Vote Results

The statement below, full meeting minutes, and results certification documentation are available on our website. The Board welcomes questions or concerns via [email protected], private message, or in-person meeting.

The Board of Directors would like to thank everyone who participated in the recent vote and for your patience while the ballot certification and review process was completed.

During the second ballot review conducted on 8/3, the Board and committee members identified a small number of ballots with questions regarding proxy documentation. The review also revealed that incorrect guidance had been provided regarding when a proxy was required to return a ballot. We recognize that this created confusion, and we appreciate everyone's patience as we worked through the review to ensure the results were accurate.

Following a thorough review of all ballots, the Board and the committee agreed that the vote results could be certified.

Certified Results
Election Restructure: Did Not Pass
Committee Structure Modernization: Did Not Pass
One-Time Dues Increase: Did Not Pass

Of note, after completing the review, the Board and committee determined that legal counsel was not necessary, and no additional or unapproved legal expenses were incurred by the Association.

This process also highlighted the need for clearer guidance regarding proxy procedures. The Board intends to place this topic on the agenda for a future meeting so that members can discuss and establish a clearer process for future elections and votes.

Thank you again to everyone who participated in the vote. Strong neighborhood participation is essential to our Association, and we encourage all homeowners and members to continue exercising their right to vote and remain engaged in our community.

📢 Official Membership Meeting & Voting Notice

Dear Briarwood Homeowners,

We strongly encourage every homeowner to review all supporting documents before casting their vote.

Returning Your Ballot
Proxy/absentee ballot drop boxes are now available at:
📍 Treasurer Chris Haltiwanger�100 Marmet Court
📍 Secretary Angela Woodruff�105 Anstead Drive
Please ensure your completed ballot is signed and returned in a sealed envelope.

If you are unable to print the ballot, you may request that two ballots be delivered to your home by emailing [email protected] or texting Secretary Angela Woodruff at 310-613-4719. If you are unable to return your ballot to a drop-off location, arrangements can also be made for ballot pickup.

Voting in Person
Homeowners attending the Membership Meeting who wish to vote in person do not need to bring the proxy/absentee ballot. A separate in-person ballot will be provided at the meeting. This allows the Association to accurately distinguish and account for in-person votes separately from proxy and absentee ballots for proper record keeping.

Your participation is important, and we encourage every member to review the information provided and exercise their right to vote.

We appreciate your continued involvement and commitment to the Briarwood community.
