Management Company History
API is not the original management company. The transition timeline:
| Period | Manager | Evidence |
|---|---|---|
| At least through May 2006 | Property Specialists, Inc. (PSI) — Nancy Hankins | Special Amendment 2 cover letter (May 22, 2006) |
| January 2014 | PSI still managing; RFP in progress (PSI + 2 others) | minutes-2014-01-15 |
| Through October 2019 | PSI — Julie Maggio | minutes-2019-10-10 |
| September 1, 2020 | API Management Agreement dated (proposal circulated to Board for evaluation) | api-management-agreement-2020 |
| November 1, 2020 | API contract term commences per management agreement | api-management-agreement-2020 |
| November 30, 2020 | PSI terminated (PSI exercised early exit clause) | psi-termination-2020 |
| November 2020 – April 2021 | Planned overlap/transition period (API started Nov 1; PSI ended Nov 30) | api-management-agreement-2020, psi-termination-2020 |

The API management agreement is dated September 1, 2020 — 28 days before PSI sent its termination letter (September 29, 2020). API’s contract term commenced November 1, 2020, with PSI’s effective end date being November 30, 2020 — a deliberate 30-day overlap. The HOA did not scramble to replace PSI after the termination letter; it had already engaged API. API’s initial fee was $12,960/year ($1,080/month), escalating 3.5% annually. The contract self-renews for 3-year terms. Source: api-management-agreement-2020, psi-termination-2020
