Policy Concerning Non-Members
The article of incorporation and the by-laws of the Association
state that the purpose and function of the Association
is exclusively for the members of the Association. The
by-laws (Article II§2) also state, Except in connection
with the sale or transfer of a lot, no member shall transfer
his/her membership or any rights of membership. In accordance
with the by-laws and articles of incorporation, and in
consideration of the best interests of members in good
standing, the following state the policy of the Board
of Directors for uniformly handling matters related to
non-members (i.e. renters or guests) residing in or visiting
the Pla-Vada community.
- In matters concerning Association business, communications
from the Board shall be directed to the member. Non-members
may request copies of communications for informational
purposes, which will be provided at the expense of the
non-member.
- Non-members may attend annual membership or Board
of Director meetings for informational purposes. Non-members
have no right under the governing documents to vote
or to address the Association; however, the presiding
president of the Board of Directors may allow a non-member
the opportunity to address the Association when deemed
appropriate in the president's reasonable discretion.
- Non-members have no right under the governing documents
to participate in Association business.
- Pursuant to the governing documents, membership rights,
including the right to vote, may not be transferred;
however, a member may grant another person the power
to vote on behalf of such member by written proxy, as
authorized by the governing documents and the California
Corporations Code.
- Fines imposed for violation of the governing documents
by non-members shall be levied against member/owner
on whose property a non-member is residing or visiting.
- It is the responsibility of members to inform non-members
of the Association's CC&R's, rules and policies
based on the governing documents.
