simply speaking, interactive internet forum helps. back


Some economic ways encourage the full participations(especially for those more serious decisions).
			      For example:
1. build some posts around the complex & special marks on the entry corners.
     - use the colored ribbons wrapped around the poles located at the entry points
      to inform the residents to vote or show opinion.
	The color presents how emergency, eg: blue=1week, yellow=5days,red=3days.
      An extra way is email notification.

2. if lack of communication for a while, regular interactions added first.
    - real world meetings help, but also high costs involved; 
       so, final answer is internet family.
    Once with smooth communications, many residents even can help solve 
      most questions, not only rely on the propertyManager.
    Hence the loads of Operation Company & board members also be relaxed:
      this is the most important factor if with agedness_members in the board.

   Furthermore, many benefits from this modern method:

	1) Smooth relationships easily accomplished.
	    -  misunderstanding usually came from less of communication.

                  2) Easy hours for more participations.
	    -  Sometimes meeting too late bothers the following morning worker.
                         Networking never cause this inconvenience.

	3) reduced costs
	* papers, labors, & post-stamp-fees : paperless also benefit to the environment.
	* voice mail-call on overnight car parking
	* facilitate the discussions on most of the common events,
	    . The posts there await for others' acknowledge/reply,
	      no rushed situations for people meet in a short span of time required.
	    . Minutes of meeting easily documented and AS IS.
    perhaps, we need some volunteers to help
      (via print-out the notices/topics and send to) those unit members,
      who whitoutPC & donot surf internet through the libraries.
     or, use the traditional method for these residents is the bypass.
    
Though "paperless" leads to cost-effective & friendly environment, it's not necessary.
Anyway, hope one day, the electronic "status certificate"  is legal.
(of course, use papers for the most recent status can be mandatory.)
Meanwhile, compare to the old way, we'll save thousands of papers each transation.

There're many free family(/forum/group)_suppliers out there
