SPECIAL &#8220;MEMBER CALLED&#8221; MEETING ON MONDAY, JANUARY 4TH<\/p>\n<p>On January 4th, Monday at 7PM please be at the Local  to<br \/>\nvoice your opinion.<\/p>\n<p>Please plan now to be at the special meeting called by concerned<br \/>\nmembers about the potential sale and the Local&#8217;s methods<br \/>\nin regards to the sale. <\/p>\n<p>Concerned members called for a special meeting to<br \/>\naddress their concerns on the building sale and the Local&#8217;s<br \/>\nconduit in regards to the sale.<\/p>\n<p>There were three areas o concern to be considered:<\/p>\n<p>1) Nullification of the Ballots and the reissue of said ballots<br \/>\nwith a totally clear meaning, not the duplicitous ballots we<br \/>\nwere sent.<\/p>\n<p>We were informed the the Local would call that Motion out<br \/>\nof order. Seems after some research that once ballots are<br \/>\nsent they cannot be recalled and must run their course.<br \/>\nHow convenient&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>2) The delay of the sale until members are fully informed of<br \/>\nall aspects of the sale. Who benefits, who get the money, who<br \/>\noversees the money, etc.<\/p>\n<p>3) Guarantee that all letters and comments sent to the Local<br \/>\nabout the sale, pro and con are immediately printed on the<br \/>\nLocal&#8217;s Website AND in the next print issue of the Overture.<\/p>\n<p>We need your voice and your support!<\/p>\n<p>Please be there.<\/p>\n<p>===================================<\/p>\n<p>II. COMMENTS<\/p>\n<p>I am glad that the special meeting will request information<br \/>\nregarding money. Will any officers of the local benefit<br \/>\nfinancially from the building sale? I state the obvious that<br \/>\nthat would land them in jail. But I wouldn&#8217;t put it past one<br \/>\nor more when so much money is on the table. It may be just<br \/>\ntoo much to resist.<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Kool Aid<\/p>\n<p>&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;-<\/p>\n<p>The realtor stands to make at least around $192,000<br \/>\n(2.5% of $22m, with a 70\/30 split with the company).<br \/>\nFrom what I understand the L47 realtor is a local L47 member.<\/p>\n<p>[EC: Yes, ONE of the realtors from Hilton and Hyland is a<br \/>\nLocal 47 member, violinist and RMA Member, Darius Campo.<br \/>\nSome have called that a conflict of interest. <\/p>\n<p>Any thoughts?]<\/p>\n<p>&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;<\/p>\n<p>Comment:<br \/>\nOur building is prime real estate. There are so many other<br \/>\nways to make up any &#8216;short fall&#8217; with this property. There<br \/>\nneeds to be real, successful, accomplished business people<br \/>\nemployed to run this local.
