[RC] AERC Endurance News - Bob MorrisTo all AERC Members: 1. A number of AERC Members have commented in the past as well as just recently about their late receipt of the AERC Endurance News. It has caused me some concern because the lateness of receiving the EN can affect your ability to have errors corrected or protests filed. So I brought the problem to the attention of the AERC Directors. 2. I have heard back from five Directors with quite a spread of comments. These ranged, for the Directors, from serious concern to the fact that the BoD is aware and working out another way. It was also mentioned that time limitations regarding protests may be extended by the AERC President. Are these Directors on the same Board? I wonder. 3. To me it is of concern that there is no established uniform answer to the problem 4. It is not proper nor good policy to criticize with out offering suggestions on how to mitigate the problem. To that end I offer the following: a. Please, everyone who has a problem with late receipt of their EN, please post an E-mail to sleeeker@xxxxxxxxxx This is Jan Jeffers, AERC Secretary. This first step is essential if you want the problem solved. As a gauge to the severity of the situation, One person stated they got their July EN on Aug. 5, the same day I got my Aug. EN! b. Also, let your Directors know if you approve of the use of Rule 15.6 General. All time limitations of the protest procedure may be extended at the discretion of the President of the AERC. This rule was not intended to be used in such a manner. (I know as I was part of the group that wrote it) In my opinion, rules are made to be followed, not to have exceptions made so it is not necessary to follow them. c. Please be sure your feelings are made clear to your Regional and At-large Directors.
