The MPCA Board will meet tonight, April 7 at 7 p.m. at Fellini's Pizza, corner of Howell Mill and Collier Road.
All Board meetings, according to the by-laws of the MPCA, must be open to the membership of the MPCA. This meeting was not scheduled until about a week ago, and the membership wasn't notified, but if you want to see the Board in action, you might try to squeeze in, even though a busy, noisy pizza restaurant might not be the ideal spot for a business meeting and observers.
(In my humble opinion, a meeting cannot truly be considered "open," unless interested parties have some way of learning in advance of the time, date and place.)
The Board did not fulfill its duty to select a nominating committee at its January meeting to nominate a slate of officers for the April election, so I suppose it will do so tonight.

Sadly, this is just one more example of the board's ignoring our Bylaws. I am told that at the meeting they still did not have a slate and were going to ask some more people if they had an interest in running. By "people" they mean those who are sympathetic to the notion of destroying the park with a surfaced path. Any who were opposed to the idea of this path, though they might have been asked if there was any interest, would likely be reluctant to fight against a board of which they were a member. One more example of why it is hard to get good people to run -- sometimes it is better to seek change (and good sense) from the outside.
