Resident records portal — self-serve inspection of minutes, finances, and contracts

Every member of a community association has a right to inspect its records — meeting minutes, the year's finances, and the contracts the association has signed. (In Virginia this is the POAA / Lacy-Act records right; most states have an equivalent.) Turtini turns that into a self-serve page in the resident portal, so a records request no longer means a written demand and a multi-day wait.

What residents see (Resident Portal → Records):
• Financials — for the selected year, the association's income and expense (actual vs. budget), net, reserve balance and target. Residents can switch between recent years. The figures cover posted transactions only and exclude any individual neighbor's account.
• Meeting minutes — every published set of minutes, readable in place (or opened as a PDF when uploaded as a file).
• Contracts & agreements — every executed (signed) agreement the association has entered, with the counterparty and signed date, and the signed PDF when available.
• Governing documents — bylaws, policies, and other documents the board has marked visible to residents.

Who can open it:
• Access is verified on Turtini's servers. A resident is recognized by the email on their unit record (owner, tenant, board, or committee — any role), and board members and org admins always have access. People who aren't on the community's resident records can't open the page.

What's deliberately NOT shown:
• Individual residents' ledgers or delinquency (collections aging is board-only), draft/unpublished minutes, and unsigned or draft contracts. The portal returns curated, privacy-safe records — never the raw books.

How the board makes records appear (no extra work — it's the records you already keep):
• Minutes show up once they're published — either generated from a board meeting (see "Recording board meetings, motions, and votes") or published as a memo.
• Financials populate automatically from your Accounting data for the year; no separate upload.
• Contracts appear once they're fully signed (executed) in Turtini.
• Other governing documents appear when you upload them and mark them "visible to residents."

This is the same transparency the law expects — served directly from the association's own books, no request needed.
