Disney Vacation Club members now have the opportunity to register for the upcoming Board of Directors meetings set to take place in September 2024. These meetings, made mandatory by recent changes in Florida law, provide members with a platform to engage with their resort’s administration and stay updated on important developments. This article outlines the essential details regarding the meetings, including schedules and registration processes.
New Requirements for Board Meetings
A recent amendment in Florida legislation requires Disney Vacation Club to conduct quarterly Board of Directors meetings for each condominium association based in Florida. This change marks a departure from the previous practice of holding a single annual meeting for all resorts in December. These quarterly meetings offer members a chance to interact with the board and discuss matters pertinent to their respective resorts.
Meeting Schedule
The first of these quarterly meetings is scheduled for September 26, 2024, at Disney’s Coronado Springs Resort’s convention center. The schedule for the meetings is as follows:
- Copper Creek Villas & Cabins: 9:00 a.m.
- Disney’s Riviera Resort: 9:45 a.m.
- Boulder Ridge Villas: 10:30 a.m.
- Disney’s Polynesian Villas & Bungalows: 11:15 a.m.
- Disney’s Beach Club Villas: 12:00 p.m.
- Disney’s BoardWalk Villas: 1:15 p.m.
- The Villas at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort: 2:00 p.m.
- Disney’s Animal Kingdom Villas: 2:45 p.m.
- Bay Lake Tower at Disney’s Contemporary Resort: 3:30 p.m.
- Disney’s Vero Beach Resort: 4:15 p.m.
- Disney’s Old Key West Resort: 5:00 p.m.
- Disney’s Saratoga Springs Resort: 5:45 p.m.
Only members who own points at these resorts are eligible to attend the meetings.
Registration Process
Members wishing to attend must RSVP through the DVC members-only website. To register, navigate to the “Condominium Association News & Notices” section and expand the “Updated Information About Your Association Meetings” to access the registration link. The deadline to RSVP is September 20th, 2024.
Additional Information
While the new law requires the board to address questions from attendees and allows for recording the proceedings, there is no provision for live streaming or remote participation. The official business during these meetings is typically concise, with each session lasting approximately 45 minutes. The next series of meetings is planned for December 10-11, with further details to be announced.
Conclusion
The introduction of quarterly Disney Vacation Club Board meetings presents an invaluable opportunity for members to engage directly with the administrative processes of their resorts. These meetings not only promote transparency but also empower members to voice their concerns and contribute to the future development of their vacation destinations. Members are encouraged to RSVP as soon as possible to ensure their participation in these meetings.
