On April 28, 2026, an Arizona Court of Appeals decision changed how homeowners’ associations must conduct certain Board business. These changes were later codified by the Arizona Legislature through Senate Bill 1290 (SB1290), which was signed into law by Governor Katie Hobbs on June 22, 2026, and is effective September 12, 2026. Together, these changes reinforce that official Board action must be taken during an Open Board Meeting, while executive sessions are limited to discussion and consideration of certain topics authorized by law.

Historically, the Roadhaven Board of Directors did not conduct Open Board Meetings during the summer months. During that time, executive sessions were used to address matters such as resident variance requests, resident compliance appeals, personnel matters, and other issues permitted by Arizona law.

To comply with these legal requirements, the Board will now schedule summer Open Board Meetings whenever official Board action is required. During these meetings, the Board will take official action in accordance with Arizona law.

Please understand that the privacy and dignity of our residents and employees remain a top priority. To protect confidentiality:

• No resident names, lot numbers, property identifiers, or employee names will be disclosed in open session.
• The Board will not engage in public discussion regarding confidential resident or personnel matters.
• Only the motion necessary to conduct Board business will be presented during the Open Board Meeting, allowing the Association to remain legally compliant while respecting the privacy of all individuals involved.

The Roadhaven Board of Directors remains committed to conducting Association business in a transparent, lawful, and professional manner while continuing to protect the confidentiality of our residents and staff.
