Balanced Membership & Vendor Waiting List
BOMA Greater Tampa Bay implemented a Balanced Membership Program in 2014. This program seeks to achieve a 50/50 ratio of Principal to Allied members in our local association. We are encouraged that this program will further engage our members as important attendees, committee members, and partners of BOMA.
Required Participation for Allied & Additional Allied Members: The 50/50 Program requires attendance or sponsorship for continued Allied (service providers) membership. Allied members are required to attend a minimum of five (5) monthly membership meetings that are scheduled per year, in addition, we suggest that members actively participate on a BOMA committee and committee sanctioned events, as both count towards the participation/attendance requirements. Members can also qualify to keep their membership in good standing as an annual Platinum, Gold or Silver level sponsor of the Local. Failure to attend the minimum of five (5) meetings, would relinquish the Allied membership.
- 8 monthly membership luncheons (usually held on the fourth Wednesday of each month)
- Committee meetings/committee events
- Trade-show type event.
- TOBY Judging
- Sustainability events (tours, beach clean-up and green apple day)
- BOMA Allied Mixers
- Holiday Party
- Golf Tournament (held in May)
- TOBY (November)
- Summer Social (June or July)
- Advocacy Day in Tallahassee (held in February)
- BOMA charity events (Met Min, Ronald McDonald House, Goodwill volunteer day (later this year).
- Annual Sponsorship at the Platinum, Gold and Silver level
To Bypass The Wait List: Direct and immediate admittance of an Allied member into our membership can be achieved by linking their application to the application of a NEW commercial Principal member to our local association. Any potential Allied members who is responsible for bringing on a Principal member will be able to join at the same time.
Vendor Waiting List: The waiting list application is available here. Once the application is submitted the potential member will be place on the waiting list. The Executive Director and Director of Membership will be charged to continually maintain and monitor the list, and welcome new Allied members as our ratio allows.
