A:
Term limits for HOA board members vary depending on your association’s bylaws. Typically, board members serve terms ranging from one to three years. Some HOAs allow members to serve multiple consecutive terms, while others may impose a maximum number of terms to encourage fresh perspectives.
It’s important to review your HOA’s governing documents to understand the specific rules in place. These documents outline how long you can serve and the process for re-election or rotation. If your bylaws don’t specify term limits, you might consider proposing amendments to ensure balanced leadership.
Engaging with fellow homeowners can help clarify and potentially update term limit policies. By participating actively, you contribute to a fair and effective governance structure. This ensures that the board remains responsive and representative of the community’s needs over time.
