The HOA board hopes that increasing frequency of meetings to monthly has given people more opportunities to attend HOA meetings. Technically they're called "HOA Board Meetings" but all unit owners are invited, and would be welcome even if it weren't the law.
The next meeting comes in just over a week. Tuesday, May 24, at the usual location. If you don't know where it is, the address and a Google map below will show you.
The board has discussed moving the "Open Owner Forum" portion of the meeting up higher on the agenda. That way, if you show up just wanting to ask a question or raise an issue, you don't have to sit through the entire meeting before the board opens it up for questions.
Would that make you more likely to attend? Have you noticed anything going on in the community that the board should know about? Remember, the board members are just fellow owners who volunteer to take on extra responsibilities for the sake of our community. They can't see everything. And they can't take action on things they don't know about.
They're also not miracle workers. When the community faces challenges, it needs people's ideas to help solve them. This means you. If you have a particular passion about something that could make you a good resource for your community, speak up.
We were fortunate that we had a CPA serve as the HOA treasurer. Her expertise helped immensely during our budget process. And even though she no longer serves on the board, she has volunteered to look over our budget before the board votes on it.
Even if you can't make meetings, you can offer feedback or help by emailing the board at mailto:board@stcharlesplace.us.
