Type: Stock cooperative
Separate interests: 21
Where: San Juan Rd at Pajaro River St, Monterey County
Status: Active, in good standing
Form: Nonprofit public benefit corporation

It is a public benefit corporation, not the mutual benefit form most associations take, so the written-ballot rules on the § 7513 page, which are written for mutual benefit corporations, are not the ones that govern it.

As filed with the Secretary of State on 2026-01-29, § 5405(a)(6) · 29 associations on this register name this manager

Monterey County, California. The association filed San Juan Rd and Pajaro River St as its location; the register gives no coordinates, so the map marks the county rather than guessing a point.

Its next election, worked out for 21 homes

One inspector, or three

Every election needs independent inspectors — one or three, never two. A director, a candidate, or anyone related to one cannot serve, and neither can anyone under contract to the association for other paid work — which rules out its management company.

§ 5110(a)–(b)

5 members, if quorum fails

If the governing documents require a quorum and the election misses it, a reconvened meeting at least 20 days later needs only 20 percent of the members — 5 of 21, counting one membership per home. Not if the documents already set a lower quorum.

§ 5115(b)(6)

Thirty days, twice

General notice of the nomination procedure at least 30 days before the nomination deadline, and ballots mailed or delivered at least 30 days before voting closes. The rules that make those possible come months earlier.

§ 5115(a), (c) · work out the dates

Get quotes from inspectors of elections

One request goes to every inspector of elections listed with quoroom. They reply to the association directly, the board appoints by its election rules, and the contract and payment are between the association and the inspector. quoroom is not a party and takes nothing. The inspectors are listed, not vetted. How it works.
