2025 Board Election Process
The Association is electing the first homeowner board on October 22, 2025 at our 2025 Annual Meeting. There are five (5) positions on the Board of Directors. Board of Director terms will be staggered with three (3) Directors serving for two (2) years and two (2) Directors serving for one (1) year. The three candidates who receive the first, second, and third highest number of votes shall be elected for two-year terms.

- Demonstrate a genuine interest in supporting and serving the Gladden Farms community.

What is a Community Association Board?

What the Board is Not

- A replacement for professional services
- A quick fix for every community concern — board members work within budgets, priorities, and governing documents
