Governance, Board of Directors

Recommended Posts

Robert's Rules of Order Newly Revised becomes applicable when your organization decides that it is. This is normally done by adopting a particular parliamentary authority (such as RONR), usually by placing that authority in your bylaws.

See this link for suggested wording.

Are the Robert's Rule of Order applicable to the governance of a Board of Directors (Condo Homeowner's Association, nonprofit Corp., Washington State.)

Yes, RONR is a great tool for such an association, and, if it hasn't done so already, the group should adopt RONR as its parliamentary authority.

RONR would certainly be "applicable" to the governance of the Association (not just its Board of Directors), but its rules would not officially "govern" the Association unless they were adopted as its parliamentary authority, in its bylaws, or if Washington law provided that associations such as this one are governed by Robert's Rules. (We don't know the answer to that one.)
