COUNTY -- A Deep Creek community association has indefinitely suspended its
manager, in part because of his involvement with a faulty board election.
On Wednesday, new board members of the Section 20 Property Owners Association
voted to suspend Manager Lee Dunn with pay.
"We're just awaiting advice from our counsel as to what we're going to do
from here," said Kim Jakubaitis, the board's new president.
Last week a state arbitrator overturned the results of a December board
election, ruling the votes had been tallied in "bad faith." The
arbitrator wrote that the association had improperly invalidated hundreds of
votes for Jakubaitis, Mike Brown and Michael Della Camera.
In her order, the arbitrator wrote several times that Dunn was involved in the
vote tally.
Dunn declined to comment Friday.
