Leaders In HOAs Discuss How to Improve Sustainability Practices
Residents from over a dozen Montana HOAs recently attended a sustainability workshop addressing education, financial challenges, and practical solutions for HOAs. The workshop covered topics such as achieving sustainability certification, combating wildfire threats, forming action committees, and fostering collaboration between community managers and renters. The workshop director highlighted the excellent collaboration between HOAs and property managers but noted differences between vacation rentals and second homeowners, emphasizing the need for tailored approaches based on varying priorities and resources. Key focus areas included landscaping, waste and consumption, finance and governance, and energy efficiency. Organizers plan to gather feedback from attendees to create a resource guide for homeowners based on these categories.
