This Is our Village

Sunday, December 24, 2023



I would like to invite you to visit the Board Synergy Club. We formed in July with the vision that "Every board has a well-informed and capable board." One of our accomplishments in 2023 was the creation of a website for Century Village residents. The website can be viewed by clicking on this link: Board Synergy Club Webite

Our next meeting is January 4th at 1:30pm in Cardroom B in the Clubhouse.  We typically meet every Thursday @ 1:30 in the clubhouse.

One of our priorities for 2024 is implementing a voluntary Board Accreditation Process. We have found an experienced accreditation board that is excited to help us implement a Board Accreditation program here. We will work with parties with a vested interest in Century Village to develop Community Standards for all associations in Century Village. Below describes how this has been implemented in a very similar community to ours.

The primary objectives of these standards are to ensure that the Associations: 

  • act in accordance with their governing documents and with state and federal laws. 
  • demonstrate sufficient financial resources to their Owners, to potential buyers, and to the community at large in order to maintain their property and to administer their operations in a responsibly economic manner that benefits the community as a whole Condominium Associations are encouraged to apply for Accreditation to confirm that they meet the community standards. 

Accreditation Process 

  • Condominium Associations, with approval from their Boards, apply to go through the accreditation process. 
  • The Accreditation Committee then meets with the Association Board to review required documentation. 
  • Associations that do not meet the standards will be offered mentoring and assistance to remedy deficiencies in Order to achieve excellence. 
  • Associations that are accredited will receive a plaque and a certificate and recognition throughout the community via The Reporter, real estate agencies, etc. 

Advantages of Accreditation: 

  • Demonstrates that the Associations operate in the best interests of their Owners 
  • Allows Owners and potential Buyers to know that the Associations maintain sufficient financial resources and that they operate in accordance with state and federal law. 
  • Creates a more valuable community and potentially raises property values.
  • Gives Associations the privilege to advertise and affirm their strive for excellence. 
  • Creates documentation that serves as a guideline for Presidents of all Associations to realize what they should achieve and to know that they are in compliance with the standards when they have been accredited.
