HOA/Condo Elections in the Time of COVID-19:
How to Plan for and Execute a Successful Election Now
Thursday, Oct. 22, 2020
2-3 p.m. Eastern
An Exclusive FREE HOAleader.com Webinar with Practical Tips for Condo and HOA Boards
|
A year ago, if you'd have predicted that a pandemic would mean that condo and HOA elections simply couldn't take place or could be held only online, the vast majority of people would have said that was silly.
And yet here we are.
Where, exactly, is that when it comes to your condo/HOA elections? It means a good bulk of the election infrastructure you have in place is probably irrelevant today or needs to be massively overhauled.
Where to start? Join us for an in-depth webinar on October 22 led by two community association lawyers who've devoted their extensive—and impressive—careers to solving the challenges HOAs face every day. You'll log out of the webinar with valuable, workable tactics you can implement immediately to make your election process smoother, more successful, and less contentious—all during a
pandemic.
You'll learn:
- The status of condo/HOA elections and the pandemic; are most community associations holding elections by now? If so, are they in person, online, or a hybrid?
- The steps your HOA must follow to conduct proper elections and how they've changed due to the pandemic
- Tips to provide effective notice that can't later be challenged as defective to unwind your completed election
- Information to help you identify your quorum requirements and creative tactics to ensure you meet them
- Common rules governing who can run for your HOA board, along with the pros and cons of changing your eligibility requirements and insights on whether and how to do that
- Suggestions for general rules your board may want to consider passing to make holding elections easier
- What you should know about proxies
- Techniques you can deploy on the day of the election (are there still election days with remote elections?) to avoid on-the-spot glitches
- The most likely challenges to your election and how to avoid them
- Details on the most common mistakes boards make from election start to finish
- And much more!
It's just an hour of your time, but you'll walk away much wiser and better prepared for your condo or HOA's next election. Register now for this informative event for community association board members.
