​There are many reasons why homeowners volunteer to be a part of your Board of Directors. Below are 10 reasons to Volunteer for your Board of Directors. Our community is constantly looking for dedicated and talented homeowners to join our Board of Directors. Give it a shot! 

​Why volunteer to be on the Board? 

1. To protect your property values and maintain the quality of life you expect in your community.

3. To give back to your community and neighbors. 

4. To be sociable, meet your neighbors, and make friends. 

5. To advance your career and build your resume by including your leadership capacity and community volunteer service.

7. To get educated on the many facets of running a community association, such as; the many laws and regulations, maintenance and repair, and understanding financials. 

8. To express yourself and be creative while offering your opinion on solutions to your community’s day-to-day problems.

• Montgomery County Code:  Mandatory Director Training
       IN 2016, MONTGOMERY COUNTY ADOPTED A LAW THAT REQUIRES ALL ASSOCIATION DIRECTORS TO TAKE A FREE CLASS ON HOW TO MANAGE A COMMUNITY ASSOCIATION. The director must take the class within 90 days of being elected or re-elected to the Board. Members/unit owners of associations are not required to take the class, but the County strongly encourages them to do so. CCOC director training certificates are valid for 3 years from the date of completion. If a member takes the class and is later elected, re-elected, appointed, or re-appointed to the Board, the member is required to retake the director training class if the 3-year expiration date of the training certificate has expired. A director who does not comply with the law is potentially subject to a fine of $500.
  
  The class is available online through the Commission’s website and takes approximately 3 – 3.5 hours to complete. In addition, live (via Zoom video conferencing) and in-person training classes are available.
