The Committee Hub in resvu helps you centralise communication, decision making and record keeping in one place. Instead of relying on emails, phone calls or scattered files, you have a single, transparent and accessible space for your committee to operate.
Why use Committee Hub?
Committee members play a vital role in managing a community. However, most committee members are volunteers with busy lives. Committee Hub helps you by:
Improving transparency – view all requests, quotes and out-of-meeting votes without chasing updates.
Reducing email overload – move conversations and approvals out of crowded inboxes.
Keeping better records – log discussions and decisions that are easy to reference later.
Enabling faster decisions – managers can send quotes and requests for out-of-meeting approval directly to committees.
Supporting collaboration – create sub-groups, share documents and start topics for discussion.
Key features of Committee Hub
Topics
Create a topic for discussion (for example: paint colours, landscaping options). When a decision is needed, turn the topic into an out-of-meeting vote. You can comment, vote anonymously (if allowed by your manager) and always revisit past conversations.
Example: Instead of searching through old email threads, you can open a topic, see who responded and confirm what was decided.
Voting on quotes and approvals
Managers can send multiple contractor quotes directly to the committee. You review, comment and complete an out-of-meeting vote in the app. All activity is logged with a clear audit trail of when requests were sent, who responded and the final decision.
Use case: Applications such as pet requests or renovation approvals can also be managed this way, removing the need for lengthy back-and-forth emails.
Important: These are out-of-meeting votes to support day-to-day decisions. They do not replace formal voting at committee or general meetings required under legislation.
Subcommittees
You can create sub-groups (for example: landscaping, communication or social groups). Subcommittees allow smaller groups to collaborate without cluttering the main committee discussions. Each subcommittee has the same tools for topics, discussions and out-of-meeting votes.
Committee Hub in action
Committees often report these benefits:
Seeing maintenance requests and their status in real time.
Reducing reliance on emails that are often lost, delayed or misfiled.
Streamlining quote approvals and other out-of-meeting decisions, saving weeks of time.
Providing visibility for all owners when managers make certain requests community visible (for example: broken lights in common areas).
Creating stronger collaboration with managers by keeping everything centralised, transparent and logged.
Tips for committees
Use topics as a pre-meeting space – raise items early, discuss and reduce time spent in formal meetings.
Encourage all committee members to use the app, even if only for quick out-of-meeting votes.
Ask your manager to set up custom workflows (for example: pet applications, renovation approvals) to make involvement seamless.
Revisit past out-of-meeting votes and discussions to maintain continuity when committee members change.
Accessing documents
From within the app you can access important documents such as AGM minutes, insurance certificates, by-laws and notices at any time.
Committees with admin permissions can also upload documents, replacing the need for Dropbox or OneDrive. Speak with your manager about access.
Tips for documents:
Star “favourite” documents for quick access (for example: by-laws, safety procedures).
Share documents with other committee members or external parties (for example: mortgage brokers).
Summary: Committee Hub brings structure, transparency and efficiency to committee work. By moving discussions, out-of-meeting votes and documents into Resvu, your committee can save time, improve records and focus on building a stronger community.
