The Board members and the HOA management company should ensure the meeting runs smoothly, such as setting an agenda, preparing materials, sending out notices, making sure the meeting is legal, setting up the meeting space, having a quorum, and appointing a meeting chair.
Often agenda items are just decided by the Chair and the Secretary. However, if you can it is useful to find ways of giving your members the opportunity to contribute. Some ways of doing this are: Put up a suggestion sheet on a notice board.
In most cases, the board secretary will set the agenda for a board meeting, although any board member can do it. The secretary often puts the board meeting agenda together in collaboration with the board president. The secretary typically asks board members if they have any items they want to be added to the agenda.
The chair is responsible for making sure agreed tasks are carried out, and making decisions between meetings if necessary. Before meetings the chair should plan and understand the agenda and ensure all necessary information is available.
Section 4900 of the Act says that all HOA board meetings must be open to all association members, with a few exceptions for private sessions. In California, executive sessions are closed-door talks that only board members, and certain other people can attend.
To join your community association's board, you need to participate in an election. This election happens at the HOA's annual meeting. Following state law, the current board has to inform homeowners a certain number of days before the annual meeting. Then homeowners can put themselves forward to be elected.
Annual Meeting Attendance of 20% of the voting power constitutes a quorum. Notice of association meetings must be given at least 10 days before a meeting but no more than 30 days, and at least 48 hours' notice must be given for meetings of the board of directors.
HOA meeting minutes should typically be distributed to all HOA members within 30 days of the meeting.
As per Robert's Rules, a second must follow a motion. If no one seconds a motion, the motion effectively dies. The chair should not permit any side discussions to take place to avoid straying from the topic at hand. Following the discussion, the chair can then call for a vote.
