Feb 11, 2016 — Unit owners elected six new directors in this year’s board election.

Miguel Remon was re-elected to the board — the only returning board member from 2015. Long time board members Maria Farmiga and Roberto Gomez didn’t finish among the top seven candidates running for office.

Anouck Jourdaa, George Guerra and Jeff Locke were elected to the board for the first time. Past board members Jose Calderon, Alex Pretorian and John Harvey were elected to serve again. Guerra was previously appointed by the 2015 board to fill an open seat.

With 17 candidates dividing the votes for seven open seats, every vote counted: only seven votes separated the last four winners and the 8th place candidate.

A total of 930 votes where cast this year, 55 more than the 875 votes cast in the 2015 election.
