Project Types / Common Interest Communities

Coordinate the Community Structure, Approval Path, and Public Reports

Align the physical project, ownership framework, approvals, documentation, and phasing before downstream work depends on them.

The Community Structure Affects the Project Path

Community configuration, ownership, private and common areas, phasing, operations, mapping, entitlements, legal documents, budgets, reserve inputs, disclosures, and public reports form one connected system.

CDA coordinates that system while counsel and the appropriate design, technical, budget, reserve, and management professionals remain responsible for their work and agencies retain decision authority.
