What should be done with written consent obtained outside of a meeting?

The correct approach regarding written consent obtained outside of a meeting is that it must be delivered to the corporation for inclusion in the minutes. This practice is essential for ensuring transparency and maintaining accurate records of decisions made by the community association.

When written consent is gathered outside of a formal meeting, it is crucial that this information is documented properly. Including it in the minutes serves multiple purposes: it provides a clear record of the decisions or approvals granted, ensures that all members are aware of actions taken on behalf of the association, and supports compliance with legal requirements that may dictate how decisions should be recorded. By archiving this consent with the minutes, it also allows for easy reference should questions or disputes arise regarding the validity of the actions taken.

The importance of this practice within community associations cannot be overstated, as it promotes accountability and facilitates smoother governance by ensuring that all members are informed and that there is a proper trail of documentation.
