An essential homeowners’ association (HOA) document, meeting minutes are a lawful record of what happened during a board meeting. Because they can be used in court and play a key role in financial business, preparing and maintaining minutes is a task that should be performed carefully and accurately. At Associa, our community managers have long assisted boards with recording meeting minutes. That’s why we’ve drafted this sample meeting minutes template. Designed to make the job easier, this template will help you keep minutes brief, concise, and objective. How you format, style, and store meeting minutes varies by association, but all minutes should include the same basic details.
