Notice of Annual General Meeting


The RHPOA AGM will be held on Wednesday May 18th at 730pm at Colonel By High School.

GUEST SPEAKERS: Jason Pollard, Forester, City of Ottawa and Dean Franks, Lindenlea Community Association
TOPIC: “Protecting Our Urban Trees from the Emerald Ash Borer”

ALSO AT THE MEETING, revisions to the Association’s Constitution will be tabled
for general approval. Our Constitution was first revised in 1961, and was most
recently revised in 1986. It’s time to make another revision, to respond to
changing laws affecting non-profits. A Revised Draft Constitution will be posted on
our web site (www.rhpoa.ca) very soon. We encourage all interested residents to
review the Draft before the AGM.

ALSO AT THE MEETING, we will elect the new Association Executive to serve in
2011-12. Nominations are invited – please contact the Association Executive via
Jane Brammer at (613) 744-5376.

Remember, the Community Association is a very important link to Councillors, City
Staff and to other many other groups. If you want a cohesive community voice,
people are needed to form an effective Association Executive. Please help develop
community spirit by volunteering to serve on the 2011 Executive.

ALSO, EVERY HOUSEHOLD MEMBER OF THE ASSOCIATION will have a vote on
the revised Constitution. If you or another member of your household cannot
attend the AGM, you can formally assign your household’s vote to a Proxy, using
the form at the bottom of this page. Please try to participate, in person or by
Proxy, in the decision to revise the Association’s Constitution.
