How many homeowners control Medley's $2 million budget?

05/09/2026 02:45 AM - Comment(s) - By Medley Members

Medley is fortunate to have many homeowners volunteer to participate in the vital roles. We were curious about overall homeowner representation so, beginning with 2024, we analyzed the makeup of all the Transition and Post-Turnover boards and committees. The total is 22* including Boards, Officer roles, Committees, CDDs and Master HOA positions for those three years.

Although a total of 61 homeowners (7%) have served in 1 or more roles, an elite 2% (16) currently serve/served 3 to 7 roles each**, effectively controlling our entire community's budget.

How does this occur? Well, we members elect the Board of Directors (as well as CDD supervisors), and then the Board interviews and selects among the homeowner volunteers. It appears that a few homeowners (sometimes also family members) are selected for key committee financial roles including Finance, Club, Policies and Landscape committees.

These vital committees vary in their transparency with the membership. (For some, the committee's roster of members isn't even posted on TownSquare 😑, yet other committees are very transparent -- actively soliciting all members' feedback and posting their proposals in advance of public meetings. 😃)

* Which committees and corporations are we talking about?
