Cohousing-L Mailing List: Re: Bylaws for land acquisition

[Peg Blum (pegb]

  Cambridge Cohousing in Cambridge, MA, set up a Limited Liability
Partnership (LLP) before we began collecting "serious" money and before we
located land.  The LLP purchased the land and also obtained the construction
loan (if I recall correctly).  Before the first move-ins, we formed the
Cambridge Cohousing Condominium Association with the required Bylaws (can be
viewed on our website) which includes the section on consensus
decision-making.  All this was done with the assistance of a Massachusetts
lawyer who understood the concept of cohousing.
