committees

An effective committee structure helps make an association strong. Committees can lighten the load by focusing on specific tasks that are assigned by the Board. Consideration should be given for the following committee structure, again depending on your situation.

A charter should be developed for each, as well-formulated marching orders can greatly improve the effectiveness of new committees. A charter describes the purpose and authority of the committee, clarifies responsibilities, assures accountability, and creates and limits authority. The committees used in our association include:
 Activities and Welcoming Committee
 Architectural Review Committee
 Budget Committee
 Community Involvement Committee
 Landscaping Committee
 Maintenance and Repair Committee

Space does not permit the inclusion of sample charters for these committees, which includes specific duties of the Committee (and chairperson).

Good Luck
