This sounds to me like consensus decision-making  process at its 
best.  I'm glad it's our legal responsibility, because it's also the 
way we want to be, isn't it?

How about "[Owners/members/residents] must act in the best interest 
of the community even if at the expense of their own [indivdual] 
interests."  It's not always easy, but it's the right thing to do, 
dontcha' think, even when everyone is not on the Board.
