For residents interested in serving our community
The Board of Directors consists of three equal positions: President, Secretary, and Treasurer.
Although each position has unique responsibilities, all Board members share equal voting power, and all decisions require a majority vote. No one position has
authority over another. Together, the Board guides the direction of the community and ensures that the Association operates smoothly, transparently, and in the best interest of all homeowners.
This overview summarizes each role by combining requirements from our Bylaws with additional Gates-at-Bouldercrest–specific expectations.
General Requirements for All Board Members
All Board members must:
- Be a Unit Owner, spouse or co-owner.
- Reside in the community during service.
- Be current on UOA assessments (not more than 60 days delinquent at the time of the annual meeting).
- Not serve at the same time as a spouse or co-owner of their unit.
- Be elected for a two-year term, with a limit of three consecutive terms.
Time Commitment (Important to Consider Before Running)
Serving on the Board requires a significant ongoing commitment, including:
- Executive sessions are held every second Tuesday, typically with the property manager.
- Planning sessions are held at least every other week (typically in the evenings during the week or on the weekend).
- Daily or near-daily communication with Board members to address community concerns that may occur.
- Reviewing a high volume of emails from residents, vendors, and the property manager.
- Responding quickly to time-sensitive issues (maintenance requests, enforcement matters, safety concerns, financial questions, legal matters).
- Hands-on project oversight, walking the property regularly, and meeting with vendors as needed.
- Supports unit inspections with property manager, walking the property to verify compliance and issue violations as
needed.
- Verifies compliance with Rules and Regulations as well as governing documents.
Most Board members spend 5–10 hours per week, sometimes more during projects or budget season.
This is a serious leadership role—rewarding, but not light-duty.
Technology Used by the Board
Board members regularly use:
- AMG Property Management Portal – financials, violations, invoices, reports
- Parking Attendant – guest registration oversight, enforcement coordination
- Gate/Camera system tools – access control data, vendor coordination
- Email – resident communications, vendor correspondence
- Shared group communications – for rapid decision-making of day-to-day operations
- Document review tools – bylaws, declaration, rules and regulations, contracts, proposals, and policies
Basic comfort with digital tools is required.
Equal Authority Among All Board Members
While each officer has distinct responsibilities, the Board operates as a three-person leadership team, and:
- All directors have equal authority.
- No position outranks the others in voting power.
- Decisions are made by majority vote.
- The President facilitates meetings but does not have greater decision-making authority than the Secretary or Treasurer.
- All members help shape policy, enforcement, budgeting, projects, and long-term planning.
- The board works cohesively to ensure community functions in alignment with governing documents.
Why Run for the Board?
Serving on the Board is an opportunity to:
- Shape the future of the community and ensure that it remains safe, attractive, and well-maintained.
- Protect property values by upholding standards and overseeing financial stability.
