THE VOTE
In 2008 an
issue came before the HAWL Board of Directors concerning a new lease of common
property to Hideaway Community Church. Several members of HAWL spoke against
this violation of Deed Restrictions, but it passed anyway.
What happens
when a group of people apparently vote to enrich a certain corporation at the
expense of another? This begs a question, is HAWL really able to self-govern?
