Cohousing-L Mailing List: Process Committees

[Elizabeth Rosenau (ejrosenau]

Hello,

I am part of a developing community in British Columbia.  We have twenty-seven 
equity members and we’ll have forty when we’re complete.  We hope to start 
building soon, but need a few more members to please the banks…

All of our growth has added a lot of complexity to the work of our committees 
and some of us are starting to think that the addition of a few more committees 
may help keep our group organized and running smoothly.

I understand that many communities have something called a “Process Committee” 
and that there is a wide variety of mandates and tasks assigned to these 
committees.

I would be grateful if this community could share your experiences with Process 
Committees.  If you have one, what kind of work do they undertake in your 
community?  Do these committees answer an important need for you and your 
community?

I appreciate any thoughts you may have to offer.

With Warmth,

Elizabeth Rosenau, on behalf of Compass Cohousing. (Langley, British Columbia)
