Mission, Vision, and Values Edit page

Mission

The mission of the Ashbury Creek Homeowners Association (the “Association”) is to enhance and preserve the quality of life and sense of community in Ashbury Creek through effective and efficient management of the Association.  The board of directors of the Association (the “Board”) will work to uphold our Covenants, Declarations, and By-Laws and take an ethical and objective approach in representing the collective interests of the homeowners. We will seek out and support initiatives that benefit the greater good of the community and will take actions necessary to maintain a safe, friendly and aesthetically pleasing place to live.

Vision

We envision a community that offers an inspiring lifestyle and quality of life and is considered a desirable place to live by residents and non-residents alike. We encourage and support an association of neighbors who voluntarily work together to preserve property values and promote the spirit of respect, caring, community, family, and friends.

Values

In all our activities to achieve our vision and mission, we value integrity, fairness, consistent firmness and common sense, community participation, respect, cooperation and sense of community.  The Board will evaluate all issues on their merit to the Association, our Mission, Vision, and Values, and without favor to any particular interest, person, or group.

Guiding Principles of the Board.  The Board endeavors to employ the following principles when carrying out the mission of the Association:

• Employ established management practices and sound business principles to make “best judgment” decisions with respect to preserving the value of homeowners’ properties as a whole and managing the affairs of our community.
• Apply a fair, ethical and objective approach with respect to the interest of all homeowners when upholding the Declaration of Covenants, Conditions, Restrictions and Easements, and the By-Laws.
• Be good stewards in the administration of Association Funds.
• Treat all issues and residents with respect. 
• Work professionally and objectively to resolve issues in a timely manner and in the best interest of the Association and general community.
• Communicate with homeowners in a timely manner through appropriate mediums.
• Encourage collaborative and diverse participation in the Association that will strengthen neighborly bonds and promote a safe and friendly atmosphere where neighbors treat each other with respect and work cooperatively towards the good of all.
• Protect and enhance the value of our neighborhood by maintaining all common areas and adhering to the Covenants, Conditions, Restrictions and Easements.
• Be forever mindful of and preserve the Association's Mission, Vision, and Values.

Guiding Principles of the Homeowners and Residents.  Each Homeowner and Resident shall endeavor to employ the following principles to ensure the Association can operate effectively:

• Good Neighbors First. There is no better substitute for resolving community issues as neighbors with respect and cooperation towards common community goals.
• Volunteerism. We highly value participation in the Association that extends beyond the normal commitment(s) of being a member/resident.  While such participation is not required, it is greatly appreciated.
• Property Maintenance. Property owners/residents will maintain their respective property in accordance with our Covenants, Conditions, Restrictions and Easements in a manner that enhances, and does not detract from, the value of all homeowners’ properties and community common areas.
