Cohousing-L Mailing List: Re: "corporate" form question

[David Mandel (dlmandel]

Harrianne:

It depends very much what stage you're at, what state you're in and most of
all, a lot of details regarding the makeup of your group and what you're
trying to accomplish. For a good start, see the summary of the session on
this topic from the Seattle conference when it comes out (soon, I presume).
There's also been some good discussion on this list in the past. Check the
archives. From your address, I assume you're in California (for future
reference, it's a good idea to identify your location and group when you
put something up on the list). Tell me some more about your group and I can
offer some more specific advice.
