SEE IT IN ACTION

Don't take our word for it.
Walk in.

A fictional neighborhood, run on governance.center the way we would want every board to run theirs. You are signed in as a resident, with your own ballot, your own assessment and your own request to the board. Everything works.

FICTIONAL · 212 HOMES · HARLOW SPRINGS, NC

Longleaf Ridge Homeowners Association

212 homes around Heron Pond, run by five volunteer neighbors

Longleaf Ridge is a fictional homeowners association of 212 single-family homes around Heron Pond in Harlow Springs, North Carolina, with a pool, a clubhouse, a walking trail and a dog park. A five-member volunteer board runs it with help from a part-time bookkeeper. You are walking in on a busy month: the board election is open, owners have just approved turning a tennis court into pickleball courts, the pool is about to be resurfaced, and every record from the Declaration to last month's minutes is posted where residents can read it or ask a question about it.

No sign-up. Everyone and everything in it is invented. Nothing you do there sends a message to anyone, and your visit is cleared after a day.

WHAT TO TRY

Six things to do in there.

Each is the member side of a room in the Board Office. The board side is what makes it true.

01

Ask it anything

Type a question the way a neighbor would. "Can I rent my house on Airbnb?" The answer comes from the community’s own documents, with the exact passage quoted under it.

02

Cast a ballot

The board election is open. Open your ballot, pick two candidates, and get the receipt a real voter gets. Your ballot is secret, and it counts in the demo’s results.

03

Answer the annual meeting

RSVP, read the agenda, or hand your vote to the board with a proxy. The quorum count on the meeting moves with you.

04

Send the board a request

You already have one answered: the shed you asked to build. File another and watch it get a reference number and a thread.

05

Read the record

Declaration, bylaws, rules, the architectural guidelines, the budget, a year of minutes and the resolutions that came out of them.

06

Meet the neighbors

The community board has a kayak for sale, a piano that needs moving, and a coyote on the pond trail. Post something: only you will see it.

WHEN YOU HAVE SEEN ENOUGH
