FAQ: What is a Community Association and the difference between a resident's/homeowner's associations ?

A community association is an organization formed by the residents of an area:

  • to manage and direct its social and recreational activities
  • to act as an intervener in civic matters (planning and development)
  • to plan, develop and maintain community facilities and amenities
  • membership is voluntary

A resident's/homeowner's association is a compulsory organization created by a land developer:

  • to manage and maintain the "marketing" amenities (entrance signage, ornamental parks and ponds, boulevard landscaping and building) of a development that the City will not accept responsibility to maintain
  • to manage and maintain amenities such as lakes and golf courses
  • membership is compulsory and the requirement to pay an annual fee is collected by the association through a caveat on title

Please note at this time Memberships can not be purchased online, we look forward to re introducing this in the future when we find a online merchant service that meets the associations requirements.
