Section 5: OPA Board Subject: Boardroom Replacement? Msg# 1193265

Hi Joe. At this point, in the evolution, post COVID, I see very little that requires either senior management of an organization or individual membership of an association to participate in person on a regular basis. I do see the need to be flexible and allow in person participation for the generation that values that, and for the issues where the public requires that, but in general, I think we have moved beyond that and I think the investment associated with a new "board room" would be better spent on things that the general residency would more broadly benefit from. A board room would have limited benefit. Thank you for providing this forum for comment. | ||||||

For reference, the above message is a reply to a message where: Thanks. I am not sure why you feel some board members are not Team-savy. Given your opinion, what sort of OPA issue do you perceive that would require an in-person meeting? I have attended board meetings in person on a regular basis for over 30 years. That long term perspective tells me that boards were more effective when they met twice each month in person. Once on say the 3rd Wednesday of the month for a work session, then a regular meeting on the 3rd Saturday. Like clockwork. No email. Hardly any association members attended the informal work sessions. Then it was not unusual to see more than a hundred people attend the Saturday meetings - and there were only half as many homes as now. Oeople took tickets to get in line for public comments People were involved, in person These days the board members are involved in constant email messaging. This may not be best approach to governing an HOA, but perhaps inevitable. I feel pretty in touch myself. |
