LCC Board Meetings

At the board meeting, every decision was deferred except the one that wasn't on the agenda.

"I'm very uncomfortable with you chairing or even being a member of any kind of technology committee. Sure, you've got good ideas, and they have merit, but your attacks on the board through Friends of Ken Lake and the stuff you just read at the beginning of the meeting, it makes me want to vote to remove you from the Technology Committee." — LCC President Gowrylow, 8/31/26

The board covered a full agenda in August, moving through routine committee reports, several procedural corrections, and notable clarification on the Technology Committee's status.

This morning, the board added to the 8/18 agenda a non-urgent action related to the tech committee. We are providing as much information as we have here so that members can meaningfully comment.

Volunteer boards work best when residents participate before decisions are made, not after. Whether your interest is the lake, parks, bylaws, technology, or emergency preparedness, this month's agenda offers several opportunities to learn what's happening and help shape what comes next. If something on the agenda matters to you, don't wait until after the vote to get involved. Ask questions, attend meetings, submit written comments, and help shape the decisions before the

Board bias was on full display at the June 16th board meeting, and it would be disingenuous of this website to pretend otherwise.

A plain-language guide to tonight's meeting for neighbors.

I think a lot about purpose. Purpose is an anchor - when disagreement is rife, it gives us something to return to. While we don’t know, and won’t assume, the board’s purpose, we can make a guess at topic purpose, because we all are working towards a better neighborhood and our board meetings should serve that goal.

Looking at the LCC board’s May 19 agenda, here is what we know and don’t know in May. As always, we will host a live member chat during the meeting. Zoom chat is disabled during board meetings.

The former Governance Committee members are continuing their work so that residents still have access to research, documents, and ideas about the bylaws. This group is called the Homeowner Document Review. Their focus is on building governing documents that support the community and reduce conflict.

Since January, we have been watching the board enter executive session to discuss issues pertaining to private lots. One of the persistent topics has been a 'declaration of covenant' for lot 2151 - which you may remember better as the Kaiser Woods Trail.

The April 21 board meeting has a full agenda. Several items could meaningfully affect how LCC is run and how your dues are spent. Here's what to know before the meeting — and why it matters.

Our members have a right to be in that room — not because the board tolerates our presence, but because the law requires it. The board does not get to change that because they find someone inconvenient.

April 2 Special Meeting - Understand the Topics

If we're going to run this community like a business, then we should expect the things that make businesses work: accurate information, answered questions, and decisions that reflect the best available thinking in the room. By that standard, the last board meeting was instructive.

At the most recent board meeting, several decisions were made and several patterns repeated that affect how members can participate in governance.

Meaningful participation doesn't require a perfect system. It requires a willing one. Here's 3 examples of why.

This meeting surfaced recurring structural questions: Alignment between agenda fluidity and comment timing Contractor reporting and insurance compliance Transparency around appointments and compensation Participation design in hybrid meetings Balance between volunteer authority and member access These are design questions, and the solutions often come from intent. Do we want a community where we collaborate and support each other? What does that look like?

The January Board of Directors meeting covered a wide range of operational, governance, and committee matters. Several decisions made during the meeting affect how compliance actions begin, how and when members can participate during meetings, and how committee work will be scheduled and noticed going forward.
