What's happening at the Benefits District?????

We noted a few strange issues on the CVCBD web site, which we think are interesting in that it makes you wonder what is happening at the Benefits District.  Allow us to explain:

The Benefits District has various sub-sections, which I will list hereunder:

Publications --------- last change made was on November 17, 2009.  So I have to presume that no publications have been issued since that point in time. 

Board Meeting Minutes ------- last updated on May 29, 2012.  For five months there haven't been any meetings of the Board?  Their web site shows that meetings have been schedules, but one has to assume that no one attended any of the meetings and therefore the results couldn't be printed.  I would think that it would be relatively easy to state on a form, that no meeting took place, but really we know they did, so what is taking them so long to issue the results of these meetings?  Inquiring minds want to know.

Listing of Board Members ------ last updated in May of 2012 - no specific date mentioned - but it shows that both Council members Clark and Stokes are non-voting members which is wrong. in that they are  both voting members, but the Benefits District apparently doesn't know it. 

In this section they also list 2 Members from Midtown Churches, Inc., which doesn't exist any more as it was closed several years ago.  So shouldn't the City Code be changed to reflect this information. 

I understand that they pay some company to keep the site current, but these are just a few of the errors that I noted on the site.  Let's have a game, you go out and check the site and let me know the errors you find.  It should be interesting in that the Benefits District can write into their bylaws a provision that they can kick someone off the board without cause, but can't correct their apparent errors.
