Homeowner associations can benefit greatly from the experience of a good community manager. However, many board members choose not to act on the advice of their hired community managers. This has become a big issue in some areas, such as Nevada, where there is a great amount of legislation trying to induce good behavior within communities. The legislation itself has proven to be inadequate for that task, according to the source listed below. The article also states that it is often the more outspoken members of the community who become board members, regardless of any experience in managing a community.
There is a great cost associated with ignoring the advice of community managers that is leading many to wonder what can be done about this problem. Nevada is considering more legislation to educate board members in proper procedures, but not all HOA management companies think this is the right answer. The source article states that managers often have enough trouble getting community members interested in serving their community without the added education requirement. As board members representing your community, what do you think should be done?
