Grenada Building & Loan Association (GBLA) has officially issued a public notice detailing the logistics and agenda for its upcoming 97th Annual General Meeting (AGM) of shareholders, set to take place on Wednesday, 13 May 2026. In a flexible arrangement designed to accommodate diverse shareholder needs, the meeting will operate as a hybrid event, combining in-person attendance at the Presbyterian Church located on Grand Etang Road in St. George’s with a parallel virtual session hosted via the Zoom video conferencing platform. The meeting is scheduled to kick off promptly at 4:30 pm local time.
Full login and access details for virtual participants will be distributed to registered attendees in advance of the meeting date, per the association’s planning. Any shareholder seeking additional clarifications or further information about the AGM, registration processes, or event logistics is encouraged to reach out to GBLA’s administrative office through multiple contact channels: phone at 473440-2108, WhatsApp at 459-2103, or email at [email protected].
The official AGM agenda covers a full suite of routine and critical governance items for the association. The meeting will open with an invocation, followed by the first formal order of business: confirming the official minutes from the 96th AGM, which was held on 2 April 2025. Next, attendees will receive and review the association’s annual statement of accounts for the 12-month period ending 31 December 2025, alongside the annual report from GBLA’s board of directors.
Per GBLA’s internal governing rules, the meeting will proceed with board elections. Rule 18 (a) and Rule 8 of the association’s bylaws require that a subset of directors retire by rotation, and eligible candidates will stand for election to fill these rotating seats. Per accompanying notes to the notice, incumbent directors John Miller and Adrian Francis, who are completing their rotation-mandated terms, have confirmed their eligibility and have put themselves forward for re-election. Beyond board member elections, the agenda also includes votes to elect a new association President and Vice-President, approve the appointment of one or more independent auditors, and grant the board of directors authority to set the auditors’ remuneration. The meeting will close with a discussion of any other general matters that are relevant to the association’s operations and membership.
To ensure transparency and compliance with GBLA’s Rule 32, all eligible shareholders may request access to copies of the audited annual statement of accounts, balance sheet, and related supporting documents no later than seven days prior to the meeting date. Requests can be submitted directly to the Acting Secretary/Manager Coline Joseph, either in person at the GBLA office or via email. This public notice was issued by Coline Joseph in her capacity as Secretary/Manager (Acting) of GBLA.
