Constitutional Requirement

  • According to the community agreed constitution under Community Governance, the Community Council expires every two years. The council will then be invalid and cannot rule or decide on matters. In order to continue doing so there must be re-elections. The present committee did not call for elections since 2010. In 2012 they were reminded to do so but they hold it without opening up the citizenship.
  • Due to clear disregard of this principle, we, the trustees are now reminding the same again and this time with important principles.
