(May 18, 2020) Video for the May 18 special Ocean Pines Association Board meeting is now available online.

The meeting was held virtually using the Microsoft Teams platform.

During President’s remarks, Association President Doug Parks encouraged citizens to take part in the 2020 U.S. Census, which is ongoing now.

“If you’ve got an opportunity to complete the Census, please do so,” Parks said. “That will assist with getting funding for county, state and other local area activities from the federal government.”

Information on completing the 2020 Census can be found online at www.mycensus2020.gov.

Also during the public portion of the meeting, which totaled roughly five minutes, Board members voted 7-0 to adjourn to closed session “for the purpose of consideration of the terms or conditions of a business transaction in the negotiation stage if the disclosure could adversely affect the economic interests of the homeowner’s association; specifically discussion of matters pertaining to the Seacrets parking lot lease as permitted by the MD Homeowner’s Association Act, Section 11B-111 (4) (vi).”
