 My  name is Joe McCann and I am a homeowner in Tamarack.  I purchased a cottage in the first release and later a lot and built an estate home.  Through an unusual set of circumstances JP appointed me to the TMA board.  I resigned this spring after Credit Suisse became the declarant.   
For some of the newer owners in Tamarack I would like to share my experiences with the last years while the resort was in limbo.  The TMA board went from the direction of JP to the control of the homeowners.  Tim who was hired to run the TMA became the acting director, operator of the ski hill, golf course operator, fire chief, on site first responder, street maintenance supervisor and just about everything else.   
 
Under Tim's direction the board met monthly and all meetings were conducted in a very professional manner.  The board met and dealt with many problems, situations and personnel issues.  In the 7 plus years as a member of the board I never once observed any below board decisions or "bullying of homeowners".   In fact the board always took "the high road" and looked for any compromise to solve the problem.
 
I feel that the next couple of years will be critical for the direction of Tamarack resort and that the board's input can influence the future.  
With this in mind and the upcoming elections for the board I would like to pass on my thoughts and observations.
 
Mike Carey has been on the board for some time and has a passion for Tamarack that is second to none.  He is out spoken at times and very eloquent.  He has spent countless hours in meetings and making connections with the politicians that control the fate of Tamarack.  I am friends with both Mike and Bev Hellman and think that she would bring to the table her expertise in  adding to the board.  At this time I feel the connections that Mike has nurtured will help us through this transition and wish that we could have both on the board.
 
Ron Merriman came to the board a few years ago and brought his accounting and financial expertise to the board.  The TMA has been blessed with an incredibly talented CFO Mike Druery.
The board needed Ron's input even though we had Bob Fullmer's years of business success and my experience Ron added a much needed input.   Ron speaks his mind ( ask anyone who attended the 2007 homeowner meeting) and is a needed balance for the board.  Ron is professional and has spent countless hours going over the accounting and forecasting of the budget.
 
I feel strongly that the homeowners are fortunate to have the current members on the board.
 
regards,
