Important Member Input Needed!
As a condition of our US Department of Agriculture Rural Development (USDARD) loan, we must receive membership approval for the loan before we start the New Well & Reservoir and the New Office projects. We have done this several times in the past and it’s a normal process. To make this happen, we will mail out ballots as well as hold a member meeting via Zoom on Tuesday, August 25, 2020 at 7 p.m. To reach a quorum, completed ballots must be received by at least 5% of the membership. So, we must receive at least 90 ballots and the majority of them must vote to approve the loan in order for Sallal to move forward with these projects. Without your votes, we will have to fund these projects entirely from reserves, which impacts the financial health of the Association and would require immediate rate increases. These are important projects. We need your ballot to keep things moving. Additional details about the USDARD loan terms and conditions can be found here. To review the form that must be submitted to the USDARD click here. Please submit your ballot as soon as you receive it. Thank you!
