Board Members Needed!

Last October the Inverness Forest Association Board of Directors had its full complement of nine board members.  At the annual meeting two directors (Elliot Postow and myself) decided not to run for another term since we had each served at least six years on the board. No one who attended the annual meeting volunteered to run for the board.

Now a few months later, two more members have decided to resign.  That leaves the board with the fewest number of members possible and still be able to meet the quorum requirements to function: five members of the nine member board.

During my seven years on the board, and especially during the four years I've run this Inverness Forest Today blog, I've heard a lot of praise for the dedication of our board members -- as well as complaints that things were not being done the way some people wanted.

Now is your chance to volunteer for the board and influence the future of our community.  If you've ever said, "Why doesn't the board do this...", now is your chance to have an impact on what the board does about important issues facing our community.

Herbicides Used On Plantings


The Inverness Forest Association board asked me to post this information:

Herbicides were used March 20 on the plantings and flowerbeds in our community. Apparently the signs that should have been posted in those areas were not posted. Emerald says they will be posting signs today (March 21).
Emerald says no chemicals were applied to our lawns.
Please do not walk you dogs near these plantings, at least for a few days until the chemicals are absorbed into the soil. Naturally children should not
play in these areas either.
