Volunteer for an Association Committee

Committees are an important part of any condominium association operations. Committee members help keep communities vibrant; and, by augmenting paid staff, they may save condo associations thousands of dollars each year. The association just would not be what they could be without our active and effective committees.

To be successful, condominium associations need to cultivate fresh ideas and encourage additional resident involvement in the committees.

Committees give the board a way to gather information, offer new ideas and opinions, and provide a training ground for future board members. All committees are advisory to the board unless given specific decision-making authority by the board or CC&Rs.

The board provides each committee with a job description, goal, and mission statement to help it succeed as a community resource.

Homeowner associations usually have three types of committees:

• Administrative committees, like an architectural control committee, are set out in most association’s bylaws and CC&Rs. They are ongoing, permanent and often have clearly defined power and authority.

• Standing committees, such as a finance and facility management committees, are established by the board for an ongoing and specific purpose. These committees generally make recommendations to and act under the supervision of the board.

• Ad-hoc committees, such as a summer picnic committee, are established by the board as needed for specific projects and tasks. When the task is complete, the committee is disbanded.

Therefore, if you are thinking about running for the board and want to learn a little more about association operations first, or if you are interested in helping improve your community or just want to get out and meet neighbors, we would be thrilled to talk to you about our committees and how you might be able to help. Contact any member of the board or call the manager for more information.

We do the difficult immediately; the impossible takes a little longer

It is the fate of the Property Manager to toil at the lower employments of life; to be rather driven by the fear of evil than attracted by the prospect of good; to be exposed to censure without hope of praise; to be disgraced by miscarriage or punished by neglect, where success would have been without applause and diligence without reward. While others may aspire to praise, the Property Manager can only hope to escape reproach, and even this negative recompense has yet been granted to very few.

HOA Board Members may request log-in information to our Members Only area, which is packed with lots of very unseful information cannot be found anywhere else on the web

As Property Managers, we all have learned primarily

through our mistakes and pursuits of false assumptions

rather than by our exposure to fountains of wisdom and

knowledge.
