Board Meeting FAQ
How often should we meet? Most associations meet monthly or quarterly. Your bylaws may specify a minimum.
Are meetings open to owners? Generally yes, with exceptions for executive session (legal, personnel, contract negotiations).
What belongs on the agenda?
- Call to order & roll
- Approval of prior minutes
- Treasurer's report
- Committee reports
- Old business
- New business
- Open forum (owner comments)
- Adjourn
How long should owner comments be? Set a clear time limit (e.g., 3 minutes per owner) and enforce it consistently.
A predictable agenda makes meetings shorter and more productive.
