Since the first resident moved in there have been a number of Information Meetings, basically to introduce people to village life, and one AGM. All these meetings have been characterised by time constraints. This may have lead to some frustration. Do you think a series of unofficial meetings with a broader base and more time would help in the preparation for official meetings?

As an owner/resident you automatically have voting rights at official General Meetings. Do you expect to exercise that right?

As a non-owning resident, would you expect to be a named PROXY at official General Meetings.

The room normally used for meetings will never hold the complete resident body and possibly partners, would you consider naming a Proxy to vote on your behalf so that your important vote will not be lost.

5. If you attended the recent AGM, how did you feel about it

6. What subjects would you like to have debated
