Hi Doug, it sounds like you have a type of membership for people who don't live on-site and aren't owners, and a former resident/owner who is transitioning to living off-site and not being an owner. The questions in my mind are: what is the approval process for off-site members, and should the person moving out have to be approved? And the bigger picture for me is: is working things out with off-site members as crucial as working things out with the people who live there? If an off-site member is part of a conflict, do they have the same expectation of community support with conflict resolution as residents? Do renters? I guess there would be 4 categories, resident owners, resident non-owners, non-resident owners and non-resident non-owners. I don't have an opinion on whether it should be equally important, and the strength of relationships with off-site community members probably varies a lot in different communities. I was just thinking that those are some things that might need clarifying in your situation: rights, responsibilities, expectations and status of different categories of membership.
