2009 Community Survey Results
The Buena Vida Survey was completed by 270 residents, a 60% return, which is excellent! Thank you to all who participated. Click here and you will see the entire presentation. The survey gives us an idea of who we are, how we feel about Buena Vida and what we want for the future.
The Neighbor Network and Netiquette
The Community Survey shows the residents almost equally divided between leaving the Network as it is ( uncensored) and supporting limiting and monitoring all postings (censored). Your Board of Directors has adopted a code of behavior for the Network, which we hope will answer the question, "To post or not to post?" Click here to review proper Netiquette.
