At the may delegates assembly Olga Wolkenstein tried to get some answers as to why the advisory committee would not consider her suggestions for amendments to the bylaws. Of course Israel gloated while telling Olga that the bylaws demand twenty five signatures for each and every proposal. Unless a member of the committee brings them to the table. in which case the committee is bound to discuss and consider them. Keep in mind that the committee was gutted by Israel recently, leaving his chosen apostles in charge.Olga maintained that she was simply making suggestions, not offering proposals. Her plaints fell on deaf ears as evidenced by the denial from Israel and a committee member who staunchly supported Israel's position.
Why would a committee supposedly investigating and updating our bylaws refuse to consider Olga's suggestions. They sat around the table discussing whether or not to raise the number of signatures needed to propose an amendment from the current twenty five to over a hundred. That would effectively prevent anyone from venturing a proposal. You can bet your bottom dollar that any committee member who  would bring Olga's suggestions to the table would be quickly dismissed.
Got a suggestion for improving the bylaws? keep them to yourself unless you want to run around and get twenty five signatures for each and every suggestion, or possibly having to get over a hundred . It would be an exercise in futility if David Israel doesn't like them or doesn't like the person making them as is the state of affairs that exist in the committee meetings at UCO.
Century Village should have  concern  that  David Israel and his "team" are  not acting in the best interests of the village by refusing to consider Olga's suggestions. There can be no doubt that at least some of her suggestions are worthy of consideration and at the bare minimum should be examined by the committee before rejecting them.

  1. If the bylaws demand 25 signatures for proposals, then I guess Ms. Wolkenstein or any other person submitting proposals to change the bylaws should comply and get the 25 signatures.

  2. That might be true Carlos. But Olga said quite clearly that she is not making proposals, She is offering suggestions. Her suggestions would require over 500 signatures. That's outrageous.
