(July 13, 2017) Ocean Pines Association (OPA) mailed election ballots to its members in good standing this week.
In accordance with the OPA bylaws, no member may vote if the member has failed to pay the annual charge, including any assessed interest levied by the association. There are four candidates to fill two open positions on the Board of Directors, Colette Horn, Nicole Schafer Crosariol, Doug Parks and Marty Clarke. Voters may select no more than two of the following candidates. Write-in candidates are not permitted.
One election ballot and a postage-paid return envelope will be mailed for each Ocean Pines property owned, regardless of the number of lot owners on the land record.
