As I stated yesterday, I would be back today to more fully explain at least my reasons for voting to retain the Clarkson Law Group as the Association’s general counsel.  The Board issued an RFP for a general legal counsel last spring, because a number of board members were not that happy with CLG (I was one of those individuals) and wanted to see…[Read more]

Thank you Rana for raising this issue once again.  I believe that the last proposal for a dog park was to locate it on the west side of Independence Center between it and the entry drive into the Anthem and Independence Centers.  As I recall, it never got approved because people objected to having it next to the entrance to the two Centers.
