Chapter Nine

Clubs, Organizations & Committees

There are two principal resident organizations at Freedom Plaza. They

are the Freedom Plaza Residents’ Association managed by the Residents’
Association Council (RAC) and The Retired Officers Corporation (ROC).

All residents of Freedom Plaza and Golf View Terrace who hold continu-
ing care contracts are members of the Residents’ Association.
The purposes of RAC as stated in its By-laws are to:

1. Ensure that both RAC and management shall at all times be in con-
formity with Chapter 651, of the Florida Statutes.

2. Ensure that the Plaza and Golfview Terrace are places of safety, satis-
faction, enjoyment, and pride for residents and at a cost as reasonable as

possible.

3. Facilitate communication and mutual cooperation among the Resi-
dents, Management, and Staff.

4. Maintain procedures for receiving suggestions and complaints from
Residents, for which RAC Committees shall seek resolution working with
appropriate staff department heads.

5. Review and evaluate all RAC committee reports. Take necessary action
to address all significant matters not resolved at the Committee level.

Pursue and resolve such matters with the executive director of Freedom
Plaza, or if necessary, corporate level management.

6. Review and respond to proposals by management for changes in facili-
ties or services.

Much of the business of RAC is conducted by and through its twelve com-
mittees. Any resident may attend any RAC meeting as an observer.
Check with the committee chairs to confirm time & date of meeting.

1.Administrative Services Committee meets 2nd Thursday monthly at
2:00pm in the Club Room. It monitors and advises the Residence Ser-
vices Department, which includes the functions of Front Desk/Concierge,

Transportation, and Security, providing input and advice to management
regarding procedures and concerns in these areas.
