Board Meeting ~ Zoom Only ~ 9/27/24

BHA Board Meetings are open to all members. Due to the inclement weather forecast and significant traffic issues in the vicinity of the ferry, the BHA Center will be closed and this Board Meeting will be held via Zoom only. Members must register for Zoom participation one time only and can simply click the link to join future meetings. Once in the meeting, online participants can enter questions or comments in the Chat feature. These will be read at the meeting so the Board can respond. If there are questions of a similar nature, they will be combined. If time is limited, responses from the Board may follow the meeting. The meeting is not recorded.

ARC

With the number of submittals for new construction, major and minor renovations, and changes made during construction, the ARC is a busy place. Every effort is being made to review drawings and applications in a timely fashion for inclusion on the agenda for the next appropriate meeting. Incomplete information slows the process considerably. Additionally, the recent storm and subsequent challenges navigating the Island impeded the process. The team is working to provide professional and courteous service while maintaining the standards the BHA community has come to expect. Response times may be delayed, but staff will address any concerns. Please email the ARC and include your property address in the subject line. Your patience and understanding is greatly appreciated.
