Cohousing-L Mailing List: How Cohousing communities decide on new members

[Jim Bronson (jimbronsonashland]

River Song Cohousing Community in Eugene, Or is passing the 3/4 point in
membership prior to locking in our construction loan (ground blessing
scheduled for May 9th).  At this point we have attracted a nice group of
explorers and are confident about our construction loan.  Looking forward
we would like to see more diversity in our community rather than choosing
members on a first come first serve basis.  We are contemplating possible
ways to modify our system so we are selecting from a pool of candidates. It
would help us to hear from cohousing communities about any application and
interview or other processes you have used to enhance diversity.  Thanks
for this helpful listserv.
