TLife - Governance PDF Print Email

TellicoLife Governance

TellicoLife was originally organized as an ad-hoc committee under the HOA Charter.  The ad-hoc committee is now the standing TellicoLife board. 

TellicoLife is operated by the Platinum Organizations (founding organizations) using a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) signed by the Platinum Organizations.  The MOU is updated annually, or as needed by the TellicoLife Board. 

TellicoLife is governed by 4 groups:  the TellicoLife Board, the TellicoLife Ad-Hoc committees and the Finance Team and the TellicoLife Admin Team. The purpose and responsibilities of each team is summarized below:

Common processes are not always identical, but will be shared to the maximum extent possible while meeting the objectives of the individual organizations. 
    • Ensure their Club members with privileged access to TellicoLife understand and sign the privacy pledge
