General Assembly

The General Assembly of the Riffa Views Owners Association is the highest authority at the Riffa Views, and includes all owners of the 1054 units in the three estates, namely The Lagoons, the Oasis and the Park. It consists of the owners themselves, whether they are individuals or institutions.

The General Assembly convenes every year in the presence of owners, usually under the chairmanship of the RVOA’s Board of Directors Chairman, or anyone the attendees choose

A quorum is required for the General Assembly meeting to proceed. A quorum requires participation by the owners of 50% of the units. If a quorum is not present within 60 minutes of the time for the start of the meeting, the meeting will be adjourned and will reconvene seven days later at the same time and place. At the reconvened meeting, the meeting will proceed regardless of the number of owners participating.

The tasks of the General Assembly include mainly approving the RVOA’s annual budget, electing the Board of Directors, voting on the changes to the RVOA’s By-Laws and the Articles of RVOA, or any changes that may be made during it to the shares of the annual subscriptions regarding service charge, in addition to any other topics raised by the owners.
