How to use it
Build the agenda around decisions
The strongest agendas separate updates from decisions. Each decision item should state what the board is being asked to approve, table, reject, or assign.
- Attach supporting documents before the meeting.
- Identify votes that need homeowner notice or eligibility checks.
- Convert decisions into action items before adjournment.
Keep minutes connected to the agenda
Meeting minutes are easier to prepare when they follow the same agenda structure and preserve motions, votes, owners, deadlines, and attachments.
Use the portal as the record system
Agendas, packets, votes, minutes, and resident notices should be stored where future boards can find the full decision history.
