Zero.  While our Bylaws have tons of stuff to say about community interests in 
unit sales and occupancy, our tradition has been to leave the whole thing 
entirely to the private market buyers and sellers.  However, we just went 
through a (re)visioning process, and one of the themes that emerged was that of 
being more intentional about community demographics — especially as we all age 
in place, and run the risk of becoming a retirement home.  So it's possible 
we'll be moving toward more pro-active marketing.  Maybe.
