The only item on the agenda this year were the election of new Board members. At the BAHOA Board meeting on March 9, 2017, it was agreed to have a “virtual” annual meeting with voting by mail-in ballot, as has been done for the past two years. An announcement of the meeting was emailed to homeowners (or hand delivered to those without email) by March 11,announcing a virtual meeting, and a) inviting candidates for open Board positions and b) soliciting any issues pertinent to Bayside Acres which should be brought to the Board and/or should be discussed at an in-person meeting.
The meeting notice and ballot were distributed by hand or regular mail to all homeowners by March 29. Homeowners were requested to return their ballots by April 12 along with 2017/18 dues of $10 per parcel in a pre-addressed envelope to Secretary StuartBrown.
Payment of dues is required to vote.
The BAHOA directors whose terms were expiring were Laurie Favaro (Main and Manzanita area), Mary Sinclair (Chicken Point area), and Abbie Urban (Bayview Drive area). The three incumbents had agreed to run again. No other interest in a Board position was received from the March 11 meeting announcement.
The deadline for returning ballots was April 12. As of May 1, 45 dues-paid ballots were received.
The results for the Board election were:
- Bayview Region: 36 votes for AbbieUrban.
- Chicken Point: 38 votes for MarySinclair.
- Main / Manzanita: 39 votes for LaurieFavaro.
There were no write-ins. Three ballots abstained for all three candidates. Balloting was as follows:
| Street | Voted | Total Parcels | % Voted |
| Bayview Dr. | 18 | 43 | 42 |
| Bayview Dr. S. | 0 | 2 | 0 |
| Beach Dr. | 1 | 9 | 11 |
| Inverness | 0 | 2 | 0 |
| Main Dr. | 6 | 24 | 25 |
| Manzanita Ave. | 5 | 13 | 38 |

| Oak Dr. | 7 | 32 | 22 |

| TOTALS | 48 | 163 | 29 |
Based on these results, Brown moved by email that Urban, Favaro, and Sinclair be elected to three year terms ending in 2020. Brown made a second motion that the current Board officers (President – David Tattersall; Vice President – Rick Hopper; Secretary – Stuart Brown; Treasurer – Mary Sinclair) be retained. Schavitz seconded both motions. Both motions carried by email.
