Announcing the Reconvening of the 2024 Annual Homeowners Meeting and the 2025 Annual HOA Meeting


Woman Saying Hi on a Zoom Webinar - Join Grand Palms Resort formerly Plantation Resort's Zoom Webinar for the HOA Annual Meeting.

Information for our Vacation Owners:

  1. Reconvening of the 2024 Annual Homeowners Association Meeting to be held Oct 4, 2024 at 10 am via Zoom

  2. Online Annual Homeowners Association Meeting Announcement for 2025



1. Reconvening the 2024 Annual Homeowners Association Meeting

Even though we held an informational meeting at the '24 Annual Homeowners Association Meeting held on March 15th, 2024, there were not enough owners attending and we did not receive enough proxies to make it an official meeting. So no votes were taken to approve the budget and no elections of directors were held. Those present for the meeting voted to end the meeting and reconvene on Friday, October 4, 2024 at 10 am via Zoom to see if there will be at least 50% of owners present or represented by proxy to make this reconvened meeting an official meeting. At this meeting, only the business that was not able to be done in March - voting on the budget and election of board directors - will be completed. Please attend. If you are unable to attend, you will be receiving a letter with a proxy that we encourage you to fill out and mail to us. If you plan to attend, please register below. Upon registration, you will receive an email with the Zoom link for the meeting. We recommend registering in advance to ensure you do not miss any part of the meeting while waiting for the link.
