Standing Committees
The Governing Documents provide for the designation and establishment of committees. Committees exist to help deal with, or examine, specific issues. Standing Committees deal with ongoing community issues such as finance while Ad Hoc Committees are formed for a specific task or objective and dissolved after the completion of the task or achievement of the objective. All committees have a Board member as liaison.

Residents have the option of having a sale at their home or bringing their items to the parking lot and have their sale there. Salemtowne clubs also hold sales in the parking lot as fund raisers for their group. Holding one big sale a year helps all the residents attract a larger number of potential buyers.
