Thirty-two people attended a jam-packed Board Meeting held June 25, 2024, including eight Directors, Management representatives, and invited guests.

Board president Laura Civiello opened the meeting with an announcement that the California State Senate Judiciary Committee is reviewing AB 2159, a measure that would allow HOAs to use electronic voting systems to elect board members and approve governing documents. An electronic process would give the association a more efficient tool to gather votes than the current paper ballots, and hopefully make it easier to get quorum prior to the annual meetings.

​Fifty-eight people attended the Village Green Board Meeting held on January 23, including 9 Directors, management and staff.

​The topics of discussions and decisions included priority projects for 2024, replacing the association's law firm, the safety lighting project, replacing our laundry contractor, and repairs to some signage around the property.

INSURANCE RATES SKYROCKET
On December 9, Management was informed of an astronomical rate hike to the Green’s Property and Liability insurance premium for 2024. In 2023, the Association paid $196,345 in annual fees. Ms. Giles reported that the preliminary quote for the same coverage was likely to quintuple.
