Southwest Valley HOA Academy Presents Two Saturday Training Sessions in September
Two HOA training sessions focusing on the legal aspects of the operation and management of associations and effective HOA board management will be held on Saturday mornings on Sept. 18 and 25.
Both Saturday sessions will be held from 8:30 to 12 noon in the Care 1st Avondale Resource and Housing Center, 328 W. Western Ave., Avondale. There is a $5 per session cost which includes snacks.
The training sessions are being presented by the Southwest Valley HOA Academy, a partnership with the City of Goodyear, City of Avondale and the Town of Buckeye.
The Sept. 18 session will provide information for HOA leaders and residents who are experiencing the impact of today’s economic climate. An HOA attorney from the Mulcahy law firm will cover collecting delinquent assessments, foreclosures, the maintenance of foreclosed properties, trustee sales and will provide a 2010 legislative update.
In addition, Amanda Shaw, president of Associated Asset Management Inc., will present “Tips on How to Weather the Storm” – creative ideas for HOAs to deal with the current economic impact on association operations.
The Sept. 18 session will also include a roundtable discussion with representatives from local banks, a property manager and an HOA attorney.
On Sept. 25, an attorney from the Mulcahy law firm will provide participants information about governing documents, CC&Rs and typical enforcement tools available to HOA boards. Other topics will include amending association documents, enforcement and compliance, registering sex offenders, group homes, barking dogs and parking problems.
A presentation by Jim Hanley, president of Rossmar & Graham, will focus on cost-cutting measures that don’t compromise the curb appeal and aesthetics of a community. Hanley will also address how the financial difficulties of the membership can affect the “community” of the community association.
The Sept. 25 session will include a roundtable discussion with HOA board members and city staff from Avondale, Goodyear and Buckeye. An HOA attorney will also discuss how HOAs can best work with their respective municipalities to achieve mutual goals of crime prevention and neighborhood preservation.
For further information and to register for the sessions, call Debbie Driscol at 623-293-3176.
