It can suggest that a conflict is resolvable in a social pre-litigation phase through the grievance committee, or that the parties have not demonstrated a willingness to arrive at a social resolution and that the issue should be seen by the SC. Because scheduling is difficult in CDS, the committee can adopt a method of the circulating document. Affected parties present the case before a majority of members (3), who then create the base document accompanied by documented evidence." |

Since the meeting minutes were posted last October 26th, whether I would or would not veto this ruling is moot.. the theme of Locus Amoenus is officially Tuscan, per the vote of the RA. However, this leaves me in a severe quandary as I have not been provided with a solid set of covenants to go with this theme, so my ability to advise citizens on design or resolve neighbor disputes about building covenants is completely crippled." | ||
