We’re now into the busiest part of the "season" for resident owned communities and I wanted to alert all of our blog readers living in west central and southwest Florida that two great events are scheduled for later this month:
- FLAROC has asked me to participate in a Board Training Session for directors in resident owned manufactured housing cooperatives Thursday, March 21, at River Forest Village in Punta Gorda. Check-in starts at 8:30, the training will run until noon, and we’ll conclude with a question and answer session. There will be light refreshments provided and there is no charge for this program. While Florida Statutes still do not require directors in cooperative associations to attend board training, I’d certainly recommend that present or prospective board members take advantage of this free event. Please contact Mary Danitz from Florida Shores Bank at mdanitz@floridashoresbank.com to rsvp as reservations are required. Light refreshments will be provided and seating is limited.
- The very next morning, Friday, March 22, you’ll be able to find me and several other representatives of our firm at the Manatee Convention Center in Palmetto. We’ll have a booth at the CA Day Trade Show & Educational Expo sponsored by the West Florida Chapter of the Community Associations Institute. I’ll be part of the "ask the lawyers" panel and will spend the rest of the day greeting ROC members that visit our booth. This annual event is always fun and educational for everyone.
I hope to see you at River Forest Village on March 21 or the Manatee Convention Center on March 22!
