COMMUNITY ASSOCIATION OPERATING MANUAL

An Operating Manual outlines critical aspects of community operations by identifying the common elements and describing how to maintain them. From periodic inspections to preventive maintenance and proper replacement funding, each common element requires its own unique upkeep process. The Operating Manual will walk you through this process and help you stay on top of your assets.

The manual provides straightforward guidelines to help answer questions such as:

• What are your community’s common elements?
• What common elements are included in your Reserve Study? How do you maintain them?
• What common elements are not included in the Reserve Study? How do you maintain them?

Benefits of a Community Association Operating Manual

A Community Association is best equipped to carry out its duties when it has a strong sense of the communities’ physical assets.

The Manual explains, in layman’s terms, how the Association works. It interprets the information contained in the oft-misunderstood Public Offering Statement and acts as a reference guide for the Association’s operation and budget. The Manual contains site-specific information, photographs, and descriptions.
