Hi couhousers From: Judy Baxter, Monterey Cohousing, Minneapolis, MN We are discussing potential modifications of our membership process for a couple from California who are moving here in the fall and have a purchase agreement to buy a home, contingent on going through the process and being approved as members. (the home is a coop apartment, so approval is necessary to buy in, unlike our townhomes, where approval is needed to join the Board of the Master Association) (don't worry, we have a very complex structure you don't need to understand). I vaguely remember a discussion of such issues (membership process for people living far away) but can't find it in the archives - I have searched for non resident members, and long distance, in Peter Scott's archive, to no result. Can anyone suggest search terms? Or ideas? Our process requires two months of being an active member of the community, and seems very important to me - as it allows people to self-select themselves in or out while working and playing with us, experiencing how we make decisions and resolve conflicts, etc. And now that we've been out of the development phase for 2+ years (since we finished remodeling the community kitchen) the work, decisions, conflicts, are less intense, less frequent.
