Free Member to Member Communication

Surfside HOA, Ocean Park, Wa

One of the biggest problems in Surfside seems to be lack of communication. The Board controls the Weekender weekly newsletter, the Facebook page and the Website. The HOA refuses to post opposing viewpoints. The only voice of the property owners is a property owner blog, surfsideinfo.blogspot.com/ , that is produced by George Miller. The Board also has the ability to send emails to all the members, but this ability is not shared with the other members. Thus a “Faction” of the community controls all the information sent to the members. Should the email list that the HOA has be available to all the members? Is there some other solution?
