Notice of Annual Meeting: MassLandlords Annual Elections Dec. 7 through 14, 2022

Each year in December we elect a member to the Board of Directors, and we also recognize a non-member with the MassLandlords Good Neighbor award.

Nominations accepted through Dec. 7. Starting December 8 through Dec. 21, vote at MassLandlords.net/vote. Licensed 123rf 61058618_s – Derivative work.

Our annual meeting this year will be conducted electronically only. The four event locations that would normally host in-person voting are closed. Electronic voting will take place at MassLandlords.net/vote starting Dec. 7 and running through Dec. 14. The record date is Sunday, Nov. 27 (meaning our records must list you as a member in good standing on that date to vote).

Members must pay dues to MassLandlords or a directly managed chapter (service contract chapters have your own elections and cannot vote in MassLandlords, Inc. elections).

The Good Neighbor Award

The Good Neighbor Award is intended to recognize a non-member’s efforts to advance property rights or to improve the quality of rental housing in Massachusetts. All nominees are normally sent a letter of thanks. The nominee chosen by the membership would normally receive a commemorative plaque.

Nominations will be accepted until voting opens on December 7. As of printing, no one has yet been nominated for the Good Neighbor Award.

The Board of Directors

At time of writing, four members had been nominated and only two had declined. We were working on collecting their statements of credential and vision. These will be published in full on the ballot.

Directors serve a five-year term. The Board of Directors has no operational responsibility, rather, their job is to oversee. In particular, they must hire or fire the person currently in the Executive Director’s role, if necessary. They must also review financial reports and verify that association business aligns with our mission.

The final deadline to submit names to appear on the ballot is Nov. 27. Write-in’s will be allowed. Submit nominations online. Mark your calendar now to log in at MassLandlords.net/vote between Dec. 7 and Dec. 14 to view final ballots and biographies and to vote electronically.
