Homeowners May Pay a Special Yearly Assessment IF an Outside Firm is Required to Manage the Pine Island Ridge Community Association !!!!!
As you may be aware, the current PIRCA Board consists of an all volunteer board that manages the activities and projects associated with the common areas of our Community. Unfortunately, several of the board members and officers will be leaving the board after serving for many years. Despite our call for new board members in past newsletters, no one has come forward to replace the exiting board members. Legally, we cannot dissolve the Association, so there may be no other recourse but to hire a management company to oversee the management activities if we cannot replace the retiring board members with new volunteer members.
For more details, please attend the Annual Homeowners’ Meeting.
