Cohousing-L Mailing List: Re: CCNRs and policy manuals

[Rob Sandelin (floriferous]

It is typical of boilerplate condo docs to allow something often called
House rules, which are those rules which the association adopts. As long as
these rules do not conflict with the condo docs or local, state, or federal
law, then they are valid.  Your policy manual would be considered, house
rules.

Dear Co-Housers,

Hello from the Milagro Co-Housing Community in Tucson, Arizona!
I have a question that I hope other cohousing communities can assist me in
answering. 
Milagro has CCNRs which meet standard home owners associations requirements.
In addition, we have a policy manual, formally adopted by our community,
which is more detailed and describes how our community is organized, our
decision-making process, etc.  My question is, are there other communities
who have developed internal policy manuals like these? Are these policy
manuals legally tied to the CCNRs? If they are, do these policy manuals have
the same force and effect as CCNRs do?  

I am in search of examples of what other cohousing communities are doing
about this.
Or, to learn of any resources that can help us address these questions.

Thank you,

Libby Dingeldein
