| Responsibilities of the Open Space Committee |
The responsibility of the Open Space Committee is to advise and assist the Board of Trustees by making recommendations for enhancements to the existing common area and to propose solutions to open space and environmental problems and issues identified by staff, homeowners, residents, Board of Trustees or other committees. It is the duty of this committee to encourage and establish programs for volunteer activities, which would provide enjoyment and education to residents and other civic organizations to improve the quality of the Ashburn Farm common areas.
The Committee will present the BOT with a list of potential projects for the upcoming year within the constraints of the Annual Budget, Capital Improvement Fund, and the Reserve Replacement Fund. The Open Space Committee shall work with the Budget & Finance committee to secure funding for common areas approved by the Board of Trustees, and work with Association Staff regarding implementation, management and maintenance of such projects.
The Open Space Committee will assure that all projects fall within the County requirements as well as Ashburn Farm’s Covenants and Restrictions, ARB guidelines, and any resolutions passed by the Board of Trustees. The Open Space Committee can make recommendations to the ARB for any existing ARB guidelines that should be updated, changed or eliminated as needed to improve conditions in common areas.
