LOOKING
AHEAD
LARRY THOMAS, PCAM
| CAI-NJ CHAPTER EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR
T
he next few months are very busy for CAI-NJ. I’d
like to present some of these events in more detail in
this months “Looking Ahead” article. Concerning the
annual Legislative Updates sessions that CAI-NJ and our
New Jersey LAC sponsor, we have more registrations than
we’ve ever had. This is a great indication of the overall
participation and interest shown by our members. It’s nice
to see that there is a balance of managers, homeowner
leaders and business partners finding interest in these pre-
sentations.
Please take a minute to review our monthly legislative
column (page 8 this month), to keep current on what our
LAC is focused on and what new legislation has been
introduced that will impact all our residents that live in a
common interest community.
On page 14, you will find a detail of this year’s “Jules
C. Frankel Manager Education Assistance Program.” The
Board of Directors has expanded this year’s program
to include the M-100 class. The scholarship award for
the M-100 class is intended for managers that plan on
attended the in-person class and cannot be used if you
plan on taking the class on-line. This year’s M-100 classes
are listed on the calendar on the facing page. I’d also
like to bring all our readers attention to all the educational
opportunities that our chapter offers to our members. Over
the course of the year we offer our managers over 40 hours
of Continuing Education Units. Our credentialed managers
need these CEU’s to maintain their designations. During
April and May, we have three legislative updates and a
Manager’s Roundtable slated for May 15 at the Seaview
Stockton Hotel & Golf Club in Galloway Township.
We recently had to add an additional session for
our Lecture Series that detailed the changes to the New

Jersey Recreational Bathing Code. These changes have
a big impact on the operation to our community pools.
Thanks to Ben Basch and American Pools for presenting
the seminars.
To close out this article, I’d like to welcome back Laura
O’Connor. Laura recently came back on a part-time basis
(two days per week). As you know, Laura was out on
maternity leave since late November. I’m sure that the
Membership Committee, our LAC and our PAC (and me)
are all pleased that Laura is back with us.
