Meet the Board

The Board of Directors forms the backbone of our Association, tasked with a range of duties to ensure the smooth operation of our community. These include adopting and enforcing rules and bylaws, electing Board officers, delegating powers, and preparing financial statements. They also manage assessments collection, address nonpayment issues, handle community complaints, and conduct disciplinary hearings. The Board ensures regular meetings, maintains common areas, and covers relevant taxes, assessments, and insurance costs. All actions are geared towards preserving a high-quality living environment for our community members.
