HOMO — FIRST NEIGHBORHOOD MEETING AGENDA
Suggested length: 45 minutes

0:00–0:05 — State the limited purpose
Write one sentence describing the outcome the group is researching. Do not promise a legal result.

0:05–0:12 — Identify the current structure
Is there a recorded HOA, declaration, maintenance covenant, easement, shared ownership interest, informal arrangement, or unresolved question?

0:12–0:20 — List what is actually shared
Name each asset or service. Record known ownership, condition, access, maintenance history, vendor, insurance, and current cost.

0:20–0:28 — Review source documents
List what has been collected, what is missing, where official copies may be found, and who will request each item.

0:28–0:35 — Separate obligations from preferences
Which duties may be required by recorded documents, ownership, lenders, municipalities, utilities, insurance, or physical infrastructure? Which rules appear unrelated to shared maintenance?

0:35–0:41 — Assign research
Assign no more than five tasks: documents, asset ownership, vendor costs, insurance/tax questions, and local professional review.

0:41–0:45 — Set the next decision point
Schedule the next meeting after the assigned facts are due. Do not vote on a final structure before the controlling information is available.

MEETING RULES
- One issue at a time.
- Source documents beat recollection.
- Costs include insurance, taxes, reserves, and transition work.
- Frustration is not authority.
- No personal disputes or enforcement stories unless they show a document or process problem relevant to the stated goal.
- Record decisions, assignments, and unanswered questions.

This agenda is a facilitation aid, not legal advice.
