Mixed-Use POAs
Bringing Georgia’s Mixed-Use Communities Together
Throughout Georgia, you will find mixed-use developments, which allow residents to live, work, shop, and gather all in one place. These developments, called mixed-use property owners associations (POAs) offer residential, commercial, and retail spaces all in the same community.
Because mixed-use POAs attempt to combine multiple types of spaces into a coherent whole, they require a complex management strategy that can be hard for volunteer Boards to implement. The professionals at Atlanta Community Services (ACS) are happy to work closely with mixed-use POAs to provide the tailored services your community needs to thrive.

Because there are so many moving parts in a mixed-use POA community, Board members often succumb to increased stress or burnout. At ACS, we can reduce Board member stress, leading to less turnover. Our tailored management services are designed to meet your community’s needs, wants, and budget.
Most mixed-use POAs in Atlanta and throughout Georgia prefer our full-services community management services. However, we also provide just financial and ACC compliance services for communities that want that option.
Your Board will work with our team to determine the exact combination of services that will work for your community. You can choose from the following plans.
Managing a mixed-use POAs community is more complex than other, more traditional, types of community management. Unlike traditional homeowner’s associations, mixed-use POAs govern communities with multiple property types, such as condominiums, townhomes, apartments, office buildings, retail stores, restaurants, and entertainment venues.
It is up to the mixed-use POAs Board to meet the needs of all residents in these communities, which can be overwhelming. Partnering with a professional community association management company can help.
Typically, professional management companies will provide the services needed by all homeowner associations, such as financial management, administrative help, and long-term planning assistance. Plus, they will help the Board oversee shared assets, including the following.
• Parking lots and garages
• Streets and sidewalks
• Landscaping and green spaces
• Community plazas and gathering areas
• Clubhouses and recreational amenities
• Decorative lighting and signage
• Storm water systems and other infrastructure.
The better these assets are maintained, the more stable property values are, and the higher resident satisfaction is.
