  \Huge{Proposed Notification Policy}\\
\end{center}
\vspace{12pt}

Currently the bylaws say the following about notification:

\begin{quotation}
  All Members shall provide the Association with a local address where
  Notices will be received by the Member, or alternately, an email,
  fax, or post office address where such Notices will be received by
  the Member.

  The Notice of Assessment shall be delivered to members within five
  (5) days following the General Assembly Meeting at which the Annual
  Budget and Annual Assessment were agreed. For resident Members, the
  Notice of Assessment shall be delivered by hand. For absentee or
  absent owners, the Notice of Assessment will be delivered by email,
  fax or post to the address provided in IV-4 above; and receipt of
  the Notice shall be deemed to be the date of receipt by the
  Association of a ``Message Read'' receipt in the case of an email
  notice sent to the registered email address of the Member, the date
  of a confirmation of ``Receipt of Fax'' in the case of a notice sent
  by facsimile to the registered fax address of the Member, or fifteen
  (15) days following the date of the official Post Mark on a
  Registered letter sent to the registered address of the Member.
\end{quotation}

In this electronic age, I suggest we change this to the following:
\vspace{12pt}

All members of the \acldm{} will be notified in one of the following
three methods:

\begin{enumerate}
\item Via email.  The notification will be considered delivered unless
  the sender of the email receives a non-delivery notice within
  fifteen (15) days of the date the message was sent.
\item Via regular mail if the \acldm{} member provides the secretary
  with a prepaid self-address envelope.  It is the responsibility of
  the member to make sure that enough envelopes are provided.  A
  digital photograph of the letter being handed to the local post
  office official will be taken, and the member will be considered
  notified after fifteen (15) days of the sending.
\item Via a letter posted conspicuously on the property of the
  member.  A digital photograph will be taken of the posted notice, and
  the member will be considered notified after fifteen (15) days of the
  posting. 
\end{enumerate}

This notification procedure will be used for Notices of Assessment,
meeting minutes, meeting agendas, and all official correspondence
between the \acldm{} and the member.
