The Cinco Ranch 2 Board of Directors consists of 7 members. Each Board member is elected for a term of 2 years. The way the By-Laws are written, and within a calendar year, 4 members are elected every “odd” year, and 3 members are elected every “even” year. Therefore, roughly half the Board is elected each year.
The Board of Directors is charged with implementing the Association’s purpose to maintain and improve the value of the community. Some of their duties include:
After each election, the Board is required to select officer positions. The Officer positions are:
President – the role of the President is that of a leader. The President typically presides over the meetings, keeps the agenda going and ensures sound decisions are made. The President leads discussions and ensures productivity.
Vice President – the Vice-President shall act in place of the President in the event of his/her absence, inability or refusal to act, and shall exercise and discharge such other duties as may be required of this position by the Board.
Secretary – the Secretary is typically responsible for the minutes of the meeting; however, the Community Manager is often assigned this task and the Secretary signs the acceptance of the minutes upon board approval.
Treasurer – the Treasurer reviews the payables and financials. Management handles the daily operation of the financials; however, the Treasurer serves as a checks and balance.
All board members are part of the discussions and the decision making process. All board members spend time outside of meetings communicating with the neighbors and preparing for handling community business.
All Board meetings are open to all residents of Cinco Ranch 2. The exception is during their Executive session (or, “closed session.”). The purpose of the Executive Session is so that Board may discuss information that is confidential. By keeping this portion of the meeting closed, it protects ALL homeowners’ privacy. We are required, by law, to maintain your privacy; by holding this short portion of the meeting as a closed session, we can guarantee everyone’s property related business remains anonymous, and safeguarded. After the conclusion of each Executive Session, an announcement of any decisions made during the closed session is made, in general terms, so as to continue to protect homeowners’ privacy.
As a note from your Board, elected by YOU, we encourage you to attend meetings and make your voice heard. Presently, Board meetings are held the third Wednesday of the month, at 5 PM. If you cannot attend, you can still contact the Board directly using the Contact Us form.
