Your association needs clear direction. In order to chart that direction,
it is important to determine the social and physical needs of your neighborhood.
Conduct a needs assessment of your neighborhood--what are the concerns,
issues, and interests of your neighbors? Schedule a meeting to ask questions
of your members to help your association set realistic long- and short-term
goals.
Goal: A goal can simply be defined as a statement of what your association
wants to accomplish. What do you want to accomplish over the next two
to five years?
Example: To physically improve the neighborhood by implementing a beautification
project to enhance the common areas, the main entrance and medians throughout
the neighborhood.
Objective: An objective is a statement that explains how your association
will reach its goal. Your objectives need to be:
1) specific/address identified issue/goal
2) measurable
3) time/dated
4) clear & concise
5) realistic
6) achievable
Example: Create a site plan identifying all the common areas and medians
requiring landscaping by Sept.1.
