Hi All,
I have seen then done, and participated in this being done many times ... but, there are better formats, probably.
Reminder - Florida, not for profit, voluntary HOA of 189 modest single family houses. We try and align with Florida Statute 720, as much as possible.
Here's our usual Board format:
Call to Order
Review of Agenda
Approval of Previous Minutes
Officer Reports
Committee Reports
Open Forum for Members
Old Business (list)
New Business (list)
(Executive Session if there is a legal matter to be discussed)
Adjournment
The newly elected Board decided to put off the organizational meeting (officer elections primarily) for three weeks. Here's likely agenda for this meeting:
Call to Order
Review of Agenda
Officer Election
Open Forum for Members
Old Business - IF there was something hanging from previous Board cycle
New Business - Florida MRTA consideration
Adjournment
Florida also has a requirement in FS 720 to consider the Marketable Record Title Act - while we aren't required to do this, since we are a voluntary HOA, we will do it as it sets a format for the future. We just preserved the CCRs, so have 29 years before it is again required. The statutory requirement is for this to occur at the first meeting after the organization meeting - but, we might do it at this one, just to check the box.
Our current President is likely going to be the next president. He was two hatted also as treasurer at the end of the last cycle when the previous president moved away, so he would turn over records and access to accounts, etc. Two officer signatures are required on all checks over $500 so we would need to organize this, as well. If not attending from the
Thoughts from the group would be appreciated - please think of this voluntary HOA as following (although not being required to) Florida 720 (in addition to 617) - we are trying behave as a real HOA :-)
