Peter,
I noticed in the ballot draft that it was not stated that bump money was voluntary only and not a requirement. Anthea told me that she would pass along my observation to you.
You may recall that at the initial street meeting some would like bumps so long as they did not have to pay for them. Only you of the three on the ballot committee were present at that meeting so they would not know of the non pay concern.
I see that the ballot does not include a choice for bumps if no money is required. This omission unfairly skews the ballot against bumps, and as far as I can see invalidates the “election”. The pro and con section includes an add on which deals ambiguously and incompletely with the issue.
I cannot imagine why the appropriate bump option was absent; but as I said, its absence voids the election.
