Non-profit Status Update
Great news! The Belleau Woods Homeowner’s Association has successfully established a 501(c)(4) non-profit corporation, a legal entity that allows the organization to engage in certain activities for the betterment of the neighborhood. This new status offers belleau woods a range of benefits, such greater flexibility in advocating for community issues, and the ability to collect and use funds for community improvements. The establishment of this corporation is an important step forward in promoting the interests of the community and enhancing the quality of life for its residents.
What does this mean for me?
As a dues-paying member of the HOA, you have the ability to voice your opinion on where the organization should focus its efforts (namely, where your dues are spent). You can also volunteer to help with the organization’s activities. If you are not a dues-paying member, you can still participate in the organization’s activities, but you will not have a vote on the direction of the organization.
How does the HOA work?
The HOA board is run by unpaid volunteers who kindly volunteer their time to help the community. The board is responsible for the organization’s finances and activities, among other things. For example, the HOA is responsible for maintaining the lights, electricity, water, irrigation, landscaping, and taxes on the front entrance, organizing events such as the Halloween party, and maintaining online resources like this website and the private Facebook group .
How can I get involved?
The best way to get involved is to attend the next semi-annual meeting. The next meeting is scheduled for late April, 2025. The meeting is open to all homeowners of Belleau Woods, and we encourage you to attend. Please see the annual meeting page for more information.
