Back in August 2012, our first experience to attend an HOA open forum when the HOA legal counsel was invited to address homeowners for the Board did not go so well. That is, an attorney representing the long-time counsel for the HOA came to the meeting solely to help put disgruntled homeowners in this place after the board had made a controversial, unpopular decision. Essentially (I paraphrase), the attorney explained: "The HOA is not a democracy and there was nothing that homeowners could do to override the board decision." As it turns out, something was done about 18 months later when, after mediation, the decision was reversed and homeowner democracy prevailed. Another area in which democracy is prevalent in HOAs has to do with committee work. If these volunteer groups did not follow a democratic model, why would a homeowner volunteer for the role?

Given my 38 year career in hospital community relations and fund-development, you can assume that I witnessed many transitions in my own career and those of my colleagues during nearly four decades, starting in 1972.  Looking back, it is remarkable to note that my experience of working with seven different hospitals and health systems is actually typical in the profession.  For those who keep track of such statistics, the average NPO development position runs about five years per location, so my stint was about normal.  Because of my personal involvement (as a patient) at City of Hope in Durate, CA, it is a privilege to archive this announcement.
