Holding Orderly, Efficient Annual Meetings

Pin It

Apathy is a significant issue among residents of co-ops, condos, and HOAs, making it challenging to get them to participate in governance, even with the rise in community associations, which now house 30% of Americans. Efficient and productive meetings, essential for maintaining property value, can be achieved by setting and adhering to a detailed agenda, utilizing professional presentation decks, and organizing Q&A sessions effectively. Virtual meetings, though convenient, might lack the social engagement of in-person meetings. Offering incentives, like small prizes or social events, and emphasizing the importance of protecting their financial investments can encourage attendance.

Corporate Transparency Act: Tell Washington to Exempt Community Associations

Pin It

The Community Associations Institute is urging support for H.R. 9045, introduced by Representative Richard McCormick, which seeks to exempt community associations from the Corporate Transparency Act's (CTA) beneficial ownership reporting requirements.

This Act mandates detailed annual filings to the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN), including sensitive information about board members and individuals with substantial control, with noncompliance resulting in severe penalties. The CTA aims to combat money laundering and terrorist financing but imposes significant burdens on community associations. These associations, operating similarly to tax-exempt entities, should receive the same exemptions as other tax-exempt organizations.

The Institute emphasizes the urgency for House members to co-sponsor the bill and for the Senate to introduce a companion bill, urging community members to contact their representatives and advocate for support.
