Pueblo Apartment Association to Southern Colorado Residential Rental Association or PAA TO SCRRA A Journey in Time The mission of the apartment association has always been to help educate members in providing fair, safe and professionally managed properties. The early organizers wrote a Code of Ethics to help insure that mission would be accomplished. In March of 1981, a core group of people met and formally began the establishment of the Pueblo Apartment Association. PAA became associated with the Colorado Apartment Association (CAA) and the National Apartment Association (NAA). March has become our birthday month with dues renewals and elections taking place. For many years, Jo Stewart led our group through the good, bad, and the ugly of managing property. She kept us laughing and we learned some slightly silly ways of managing property, if the need arose. Many other people have vastly contributed to the survival of the organization through the years, their dedication to the organization has been crucial to its survival. Vendors have always played an important role in our organization, by sponsoring meetings and workshops, offering special deals, and networking with members. In the early years, our monthly newsletter complete with cartoons was written, typed, copied and mailed to all the members. As technology changed, the newsletter was faxed, e-mailed and snail mailed to members. The education we have offered has included programs on crime prevention, fair housing laws, lead & mold clean-up and disclosure, eviction procedures, small claims court procedures, leasing boot camp, insurance concerns, maintenance help from building window screens to quick clean tips and lots of everything in between. In 2006, the Board of Directors faced a very serious challenge and hard decisions had to be made. After much discussion, the Board voted to no longer belong to the CAA and to become an independent apartment association. The name was changed to Southern Colorado Residential Rental Association to better reflect our membership which is made up of not only apartment managers but also owners of other types of rental properties in Pueblo and the surrounding area. Many people have given their time and talent to our organization throughout the years, they are not all mentioned in the history, but each and everyone has contributed to the success of the apartment association. The enthusiasm of the members and vendors has enabled us to continue to grow and satisfy our mission. |
