Author: Braeloch HOA Board (Page 1 of 2)

We apologize for the delay in online ballots going out to residents. We are actively escalating with Cedar Management through several channels as to what the issue is and when this will be resolved.

If there is no resolution by Monday morning (or Tuesday if closed for holiday) the board president will make an in-person office visit to their Raleigh office.

To ensure impartiality in board elections the property management company is responsible for carrying out the election. The board’s only direct involvement is at the conclusion when the secretary verifies the ballot counts. Voting will be active through March 1st.

We will provide more updates shortly.

Note: Follow-ups were moved here to reduce clutter on the main page.
