The Board also may be contacted by email at the email addresses listed above. Members interested in service to LMOA as a Director are invited to follow the petition process to become candidates for the Board election. Beginning early in each calendar year, the start of the petition process will be announced in Association media. For more information, contact the LMOA Communications Manager. LMOA Board of Directors Organizational Structure The Board of Directors is the governing body of the Association. As provided in the Bylaws, the Board adopts policies and promulgates such rules and regulations as necessary for the proper operation, administration and government of the community. Such policies, rules and regulations are binding on members of the Association. The Board normally meets monthly on the fourth Thursday of the month. Exceptions may be approved by the Board and announced in the Association media. The Board may call special meetings as necessary to conduct the business of the Association or as working sessions to gather information. Time will be allocated at Board meetings for members to speak on items included on the agenda for that meeting or on other matters affecting the community and/or the Association. An agenda for the monthly meeting will be published in the Friday Flyer, Lake Monticello’s weekly communique to the members, the week immediately preceding the meeting. Background material on agenda items will be placed in the Reading Files available for view at the Clubhouse and Pro Shop. A summary of actions taken by the Board will be published in the next Friday Flyer following the meeting. To resolve problems or concerns of a more personal and/or immediate nature, members are encouraged to contact an appropriate member of staff or committee involved with the area of concern. This will speed the process and expedite resolution. Other questions and comments may be directed to the Secretary or members of the Board. Each year, LMOA members elect three Directors to fill terms that expire at the Annual Meeting and other un expired terms on the Board of Directors that may have been vacated for any reason, and which have been included on the agenda for the Annual Meeting.

................................. [ BACK TO TOP ] ................................

The Board of Directors and staff rely on LMOA committees for help and information. At the present time, there are 18 standing committees, eight operating and 10 advisory. In addition, the Board appoints ad hoc committees as needed for special purposes.

Each committee has a staff liaison with whom they work to accomplish the committee’s goals and responsibilities, as provided in the committee charter. While employees do not report to committees nor committees to staff, each utilizes the abilities of the other to accomplish whatever is needed in the best interests of the Association.

Most committees meet regularly. See the Friday Flyer for the committee meetings scheduled each week. Regular meeting schedules are published below, along with a brief summary of the each committee.

Association members who have a background of work and/or experience that could enhance operations of one or more committees, or members who have a special interest in the work of a committee, are invited to consider volunteering for service on the committee. To be considered for service on any committee, members may download a Committee Resource Form from the online library or pick one up at the Administration Office. As committee vacancies arise, either by resignations during the year or as terms expire at the end of each calendar year, qualified applicants will be contacted and interviewed for the openings. It is not unusual, however, for an applicant's form to be on file for an extended period of time before he/she is contacted. Because interests and experience tend to change over time, members are encouraged to update their forms annually.
