HOA Adopts 2022 Plan

ByWayne Willis

The Las Mañanitas HOA is a $1.2m USD operation overseen by a volunteer Board, volunteer committees and a paid staff led by our Community Manager, David Alanis.  That is, our resources are very limited.

The HOA relies on the support of the Owners to keep our community safe, sound, beautiful and comfortable ... all at a reasonable cost..  Because our resources are limited (and the pace of business activity here is slower), we ask for your understanding if our ambitions are modest and for your patience if our deadlines get extended.

That said, your HOA has organized its 2022 Plan in three major themes, each with several components.  (See this outline tool to explore it and this 60-second explainer video on how to use the tool.   There's also a 5-minute explainer video drilling into the plan in more detail.)
