Cohousing-L Mailing List: RE: Advice Requested on Co-Housing Condos

[Casey Morrigan (cjmorr]

I think the original thread here was how to run your cohousing community 
when you have laws governing what homeowners' associations (HOA's) can do 
and how they are governed. I am here to say - it is doable. We just made 
sure that our consensus process and committee structure (notice of 
meetings, decisionmaking, responsibility of Board members, accountability, 
getting the work of the community done) matches or exceeds the requirements 
of our HOA bylaws and our CCR's (covenants, codes, and restrictions). This 
is usually pretty easy, though it may not be simple. We had to have several 
meetings where we sat with our bylaws and CCR's, and compared it to our 
actual governance and committee structure, and then figured out what needed 
to happen.
