2024 Required Notice to Member-Owners for Vote

Required Notice to Member-Owners for Vote

Greetings Member-Owners~ 

This year’s Annual Member Meeting is scheduled for April 20, 2024, 1p-4p at the Little 5 Points Community Center, 1083 Austin Ave NE, Atlanta, GA 30307.
The meeting is IN PERSON this year, and is also hybrid.

We need everyone to attend so that we meet our quorum of 50 Member-Owners so that the vote can move forward.

Only those who RSVP and attend will be able to vote on these items, follow this link to RSVP  https://forms.gle/uPFm6RSudkA8eWkY7

The Board has been hard at work this past year addressing systems and processes that will enable Sevananda to move forward to our next level of growth and success, and we are excited to share it with you! 

A significant task we accomplished is identifying and rectifying issues with the present Bylaws that were not aligned with the laws of the state in which we are incorporated as a cooperative. In completing that work, we also identified an issue with sales of Class A shares that needed to be cleaned up.  

We worked with an attorney who specializes in cooperative law and were able to address all the discrepancies that legally compromise the organization.  

The next step is to present these revisions to the Member-Owners for review and call a vote at the Annual Member Meeting. There are three items for the Member-Owners to review to be prepared for the meeting. 

  1. Revision of the full Bylaws 
  1. A proposed revision to Article V of the Articles of Incorporation 
  1. Revision to Bylaw 7.01 to clean up language around sales of Class A shares 

Below is all the information you need to prepare to vote at the Annual Member Meeting.
