RESOLVED: Effective for rentals of the Town Hall after the May 2003 general meeting of the Association, the member rental rates shall be available only to Association members who paid their annual dues on or before the date of the Association’s May general meeting that immediately precedes the date(s) of the rental, except in the case of:

· a resident who has lived in the community less than one (1) year prior to the date of the rental; and

· a resident who has been a member of the Association in good standing for five (5) consecutive years, but for whatever reason has not paid their dues for the current year.

For purposes of this resolution, dues paid on or before the May general meeting of the Association result in the member being in good standing until the next May general meeting of the Association.
