We recently received our HOA FEE letter informing us of
monthly fee increases.
I and a group of "full time" residents believe changes
to a more engaged board, and adherence to the by-laws
would be very helpful at this point.
However, as hard as we haved tried and the many hours
that I personally expended trying to help each of us understand
how very important good governamce is, APATHY towards better
governance is RAMPANT.
Apathy, due to the way our by-laws are constructed makes it
difficult for the full time residents to be governed
in a fair, and transparent manner.
If you ask an Egret Run "absentee owner" (defined as: either here
only a few weeks a year, or owns only as rental investment) how they view
how the BOD is governing, they will state that the board is
doing a good job.
Why? Because they do not live here full time, all that matters
to them is what the Noble or the BOD reports to them, in writing,
not in da to day living reality.
As long as apathy prevails amongst the neighbors who live
here full time, little by little, our community can slowly change
for the worse.
If i did not type with one hand, there is more to share,
but for the most part, seems like apathy always wins the day. I
may, as time permits, share several other helpful practices used
by the most successful HOAs, that I read and hear about.
One little item that would be helpful is to ask all of your
neighbors to join our email list due to several new neighbors
moving in.
