Owners of multiple lots have one membership per lot. The number of memberships is fixed at 280, one for each lot served by OVMWC. Each member has one vote in OVMWC’s affairs that require membership approval.

Pursuant to OVMWC’s by-laws, OVMWC is governed by a board of five directors elected by members to serve two-year terms. Directors must be OVMWC members. The election of directors takes place during the company’s annual membership meeting. Ballots are emailed with the notice announcing the annual meeting.
