Garden association docs

A gardening association is a legal entity (co-op or NGO), registered with statute; general assembly is the top body. Without status, common land and utilities are legally in limbo.

Statute (bodies, fees, exit), member registry, assembly minutes, annual budget, network handover acts (power, water, roads), payment ledger.

Entrance, annual (network upkeep), targeted (electrification, road). Amount — only by assembly vote. Debtors: written claim, then court — cutting power without a ruling is illegal.

Plots — owned or leased by members, common land — on the association's balance. Common-land squatting is recoverable in court. Rights registered in the cadastre, not just the 'society book'.

Chair and board — for a statute term (usually 2–3 yrs), re-elected by minutes. The chair signs contracts, runs the books. An audit committee — mandatory, yearly check.

Fee misuse, cutting debtors off without a vote, board selling common land — all challenged via assembly or court. Minutes are the key evidence; keep them carefully.
