Cat recommended that we send the ballots out by email like Joanne did last year.  Joanne indicated that she recommends that we pay for the Survey Monkey that provides information that the email was opened and received by the receiver.  This will alleviate having to send out paper ballots for persons that opened their email but did not respond.  We will still send out paper ballots to residents that do not have an email on file at PAMCO.
