Operational
The RHSRA is governed by a Board of Directors made up of members of the community who are all volunteers. They are accountable to the property owners for good governance and to ensure that the levy collected from you is spent wisely, in the best interest of Richmond Hill and in line with NMBM’s SRA policy.
The Board of Directors provides strategic direction and prepares proposed budgets and plans for approval by the RHSRA members at the RHSRA Annual General Meeting (AGM). The AGM is convened annually. The Board of Directors is elected by RHSRA members at the AGM. Only RHSRA members have voting rights at the AGM and any property owner in Richmond Hill can become a member of the SRA.
