Join the Board

Hamilton Park is one of only two communities that are self-managed as a co-operative in Victoria. All residents are shareholders in the co-operative, these shares are transferred when purchasing properties in Hamilton Park. The management of the Park is via a board of directors, “the board” who act to represent all the shareholders, and as such we take care of the parklands  and the water supply for the community.

We are always seeking input into the management of Hamilton Park and what better way to have an impact on our community than becoming a board member.

Our board is organised as the normal Chairperson/Secretary/Treasurer structure like a school or club with other areas organised into portfolios such as water and parklands, we also have members who have no specific responsibilities but contribute to the boards decisions .

We meet once a month for around two hours where we take care of the day to day management of Hamilton Park,  as well as managing special projects which are currently in progress. We also have a meeting once a year with the RCOW  to ensure we are getting the best results for our community from our rates.

Being a board member is a great way to contribute and it requires no special skills, just a desire to continue making Hamilton Park a great place to live.

If you are new to the community it’s an easy way to meet other residents and contribute your ideas.

The residents as shareholders are also entitled to attend board meetings, but notice is required If you would like to contribute to our community by being a board member, you can join by applying  filling out the form below, new members are welcome to join at anytime.

We look forward to welcoming  you to our board.
