Minutes Special Board Meeting Oct 8 2012


Bridger Creek Subdivision Community Association
Special Meeting of the Board of Directors
Held in Executive Session
Monday, October 8, 2012

 The meeting was called to order at 5:00 pm at 1075 Boylan Road (Karin Jennings’ home).

This meeting was held in Executive Session due to the confidential nature of the discussions.  Executive Session is limited to Board members and is allowed, per Robert’s Rules, which the Board has adopted.

Board Members present were Sharyn Anhalt, Tim Russell, Erik Steckmest, Dorick Sauvageau, and Karin Jennings. The attorney representing BCSCA, Eric Nord, was contacted via telephone.

Conference Call with Attorney to discuss BCSCA Entity Status
A teleconference was held with Eric Nord, of Crist, Krogh & Nord, LLC in Billings, for the purpose of discussing the Association’s entity status and providing the Board members an opportunity to ask questions regarding our status and the various entity options which may be available under Montana law. The Board is working to summarize this information to provide a concise explanation of the available status options. Once finalized by the Board, this information will be promptly circulated to the members along with a call for a Special Membership meeting. 

At 5:40 pm the conference call with the attorney was ended. 

New Business
In reference to the October 1, 2012 Minutes under the Executive Committee report on entity status, Sharyn made a motion to amend the motion approved at that meeting, in order to strike the provision to have Eric Nord’s recommendations reviewed by a separate attorney, and instead for the Board to prepare a summary of entity status options and related information to be reviewed by Eric Nord and to distribute such information to the members once finalized by the Board. Karin seconded the motion; which passed with four votes, with Tim abstaining. 

Approval of Minutes
Dorick made a motion to approve the minutes from the October 5, 2012 Special Meeting of the Board of Directors. The motion was seconded by Erik and passed with four votes, with Tim abstaining as we wasn’t in attendance at that meeting. Dorick left the meeting at 6 pm.

Erik made a motion to approve the minutes from the October 1, 2012 Board of Directors’ Meeting; Sharyn seconded.  Tim requested modification to two paragraphs in the Park and Trail Report discussion.  Karin made a motion to approve the amended minutes; Sharyn seconded.  The modified minutes were unanimously approved. 

The meeting was adjourned at 6:40 pm.

The next Board meeting will be Tuesday, November 13 at 6:30 pm.  The location will likely be the Masonic Temple (14 S. Tracy Avenue), but needs to be confirmed and will be announced.  Note that this is a change from Monday, November 5.
