I've not been in that situation, but have a piece of advice anyway. That is, find a way to eat together at least once a week, at least 5-6 households at a time if you don't have space for everybody who wants to share dinner on the chosen common dinner night. Do a potluck or an old fashioned progressive dinner (anyone remember those?) if host households don't want to cook for the others eat at their house that night. Go out to a restaurant together or have an on- or off-site picnic or barbecue. If you want to get real organized about it (not a bad idea in my opinion, have a few people with slightly larger houses offer to host, the dinners and then shuffle other households around so everyone gets to eat with everyone else at least once in a while until the common house is built.
