I and I am sure many other unit owners would like to know how many
votes each candidate running for VP received? We as unit owners are
we not entitled to know? We were told the vote count of the 3 candidates
that ran for President. Why is the vote count for the candidates that
ran for VP such a DARK SECRET.

In the tradition of all fine businesses, he who asks the question gets the job. Nutmegger please phone UCO today and post the results
I assume this whole week will be a sorting out, regrouping, at UCO.
Because we remain in the dark, please print out this recall petition, sign and be prepared to return to the address you will be given shortly.
Please feel free to share with other Delegates.
I/we hereby request the recall of President George Loewenstein

Anon 8:16 - time for you to get a life. Instead of trying to unify and bring an end to this madness you find it necessary to continue division and dissention. Grow up!!
Comments by Ed Black- worth paying attention to "I would presume this means this community now wants a healing of the partisan and denigrating approach that has been the pattern of the past. Any effort to include people that want to help this Village should be considered and like David Bernstein, former UCO VP, said, forget what happened in the past, and look forward to see what can be done for the future.
Mr. President, the ball is in your court to resolve the bitterness, I for the sake of this Village, encourage you to make that your first order of business. This Village is ready for all our efforts to band together for the common good! Many of us know you are regularly informed on comments on this blog and surely only you can now change the direction of this Village by INCLUDING EVERYONE THAT OFFERS HELP. We can all agree that a movement for 141 Associations to pull out of UCO would not be good for this Village nor would a recall. Please consider the future of UCO seriously"

Homeowners who flew their American flags on the Fourth of July won't have to wait until Veterans Day to fly them again. A new state law says they can fly their flags every day of the year — even if their association rules say they can't.
Another new law says condo owners no longer have the right to put solar panels on the roofs of their low-rise buildings. Associations feared that without regulation, owners could damage the roof over everyone's head. Now, they can only put up a solar panel if it is solely "within the boundaries of a condominium unit."
Five condo and homeowner association bills approved during the two-month legislative session that ended in May have been signed by Gov. Charlie Crist and became effective on Tuesday. Some are considered so confusing, however, that they may be changed next year.
Crist on May 1 signed a major condo reform bill that is effective Oct. 1.It does several things, from letting owners display small religious objects, such as Jewish mezuzahs, on their doorposts despite association bans, to preventing owners who owe money to the association from running for the board.
Last week, Crist vetoed a homeowner association bill because it included a provision he said would have weakened state regulation of association swimming pools.
One of the five bills that Crist signed into law is considered especially confusing. It involves the rewrite of condo insurance law, and includes everything from the responsibility of unit owners after a hurricane to how a board must rebuild a building. The law appears to contradict itself and other laws.
Although they are on opposite sides of nearly every issue, attorney Gary Poliakoff and Cyber Citizens for Justice President Jan Bergemann agree about the confusion.
"I doubt that those who drafted the amendment, and those who voted for it, can explain the consequences of their actions," said Poliakoff, whose law firm represents 4,300 associations.
Said Bergemann, whose organization seeks to protect owners from associations: "In this case I agree with [Poliakoff]."
The insurance law may accomplish something, however, said Yeline Goin, Fort Myers-based executive director of the Community Association Leadership Lobby, which represents boards in Florida.
She said that after recent hurricanes, disputes arose between associations and owners over responsibility for payment. The new law, she said, establishes a "fairly easy-to-follow rule, which is: if you insure it, you are responsible for repairing it after a casualty, and also for any shortfalls that arise because of a deductible."
The law makes several other changes, such as giving a new name to the state agency that enforces condo law: the Division of Condominiums, Timeshares & Mobile Homes.
Here are other highlights:
• Foreclosures. SB 1986 says that a bank or holder of a foreclosed first mortgage may be liable to a homeowner association for up to 12 months of past due assessments or 1 percent of the original mortgage amount, whichever is less. This could help take the burden off owners who would be forced to make up for the foreclosed owner.
• Liens and receivers. Condo associations can't file a lien against an owner without giving the owner 30 days notice, a change that prevents associations from filing a lien the day after it says a payment is due (CS, HB 1105). Homeowner associations are already required to give owners 45 days to pay a debt before a lien can be filed for unpaid assessments.
