Any tips on how to encourage a lot owner to keep up to date by reading his email. A lot owner has become very difficult to communicate with via text, email, and phone. I'm spoiled I guess because he's the only problem. I will have to use certified mail going forward but would appreciate anyone's experience to avoid that workload.

Thank you very much for your reply. Very helpful. Could you elaborate on your system of getting permission from the lot owner on using email. We have no formality of any kind. Everyone uses email,texting, or phone likes it's 'a given'.. Thanks again.

Not really answering your question specifically but on the general issue of communicating with members.......we have a rather informal association, not statuary just non-profit.  We use email almost exclusively with pretty good results.  I have also started a private Facebook page for our association that admittedly does not reach everyone but remains pretty popular.  We don't use FB for anything official but its good for sharing info and photos.
