Phil Chapman

Phil Chapman, Candidate Information Statement, 2026

I have been elected to the Providence Master Association Board of Directors three times and am currently serving my sixth year as a Director. In that time, the Board has restored the financial health of the Association from its dire condition in 2019-2020, and maintained the parks and other infrastructure at a high level, all while reducing assessments below the $180 per quarter that they were in 2020 and keeping them at $150 per quarter ever since.

My view remains, as it has been since I first ran for the Board, that the Board should limit its actions to what is explicitly authorized by the Association’s Declaration of Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions (the “CC&Rs”). The CC&Rs is the document that is recorded in the land records of Clark County that, along with Nevada law, grants the Board all of the authority that it has. Here is the function of the Association as set forth in Section 6.1 of the CC&Rs: “The Association shall be the entity responsible, through its Board of Directors, for management, maintenance, operation and control of the Area of Common Responsibility. The Association also shall be the primary entity responsible for enforcement of the Governing Documents. The

Association shall perform its functions in accordance with the Governing Documents and applicable laws.” 

That’s it—maintenance and operation of our infrastructure and enforcement of our Governing Documents. The legitimate, authorized purpose of the Association is not to serve as a substitute for municipal government, to alleviate all of the annoyances of life experienced by the Association’s residents, to provide them with entertainment, nor to promote some nebulous strengthening of “neighborhood connections” or “sense of community.” My goals are to efficiently fulfill all of the required duties of the Board, keep the assessments to the minimum necessary, and interfere in homeowners’ lives as little as possible. Candidates for the Board who express a desire to do much more than that will inevitably try to take and spend more of

your money than is necessary. 

If you are satisfied with the current state of the Association, please consider voting to re-elect me and to elect Joshua Johnson to the Board.
