We’re committed to helping you achieve that, and look forward to ‘seeing’ you at an upcoming webinar! MEEB Lawyers Featured in Webinar on COVID Challenges Have you fretted about the many ways in which the COVID-19 pandemic has af- fected your community? Capital projects, vendor relations, use of amenities, elections — nearly every aspect of community asso- ciation operations has been impacted over the past six months. If you’ve wondered about the best ways of dealing with these issues — and about the steps (and missteps other communities have taken) in facing these challenges, New England Condominium has a great resource for you! In August, Richard Brooks, Janet Oulou- sian Aronson, and Mark Einhorn, partners at Marcus, Errico, Emmer & Brooks PC., presented a ‘virtual town hall’ webinar as part of Yale Robbins Publications’ FREE ed- ucational series. “COVID Complications – Unraveling the Pandemic’s Financial, Physi- cal, and Administrative Crisis for HOAs” encompassed a wide-ranging, informative exploration of those issues, and more, that are facing HOA communities during this complicated, stressful time.
