The vote on the revised governance documents is complete. We received 89 ballots out of 118 lots, a 75.4% response rate. 
 
On the Declaration: 66 ballots in favor and 23 against, or 74% in favor.  Our rules require 67% of all households (=79 of 118 households) for a change to the Declaration, so the revised Declaration FAILED to pass.
 
On the Bylaws: 68 ballots in favor, 20 against, 1 abstention, or 76.4% in favor.  Our rules require a quorum of 25% of houses voting (=30 houses), then approval by 67% of the votes received, so the revised Bylaws PASSED.
