(HMC)<\/a>, a non-profit, non-stock Washington corporation consisting of the owners&nbsp; of property on Herron Island.&nbsp; HMC is governed by its ByLaws and administered by a nonsalaried Board of Trustees elected annually from the membership.&nbsp; The Board is responsible for overseeing the operations and maintenance of the corporation&#8217;s properties, and establishing a balanced budget to fund these operations.&nbsp; Herron Island is funded solely by annual and special assessments paid by the members and by the ferry fee and the island does not receive any funding from the local, state or federal government, so governing control is maintained by all of the owners via HMC.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Common properties include:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>-The North Beach area with Parking, open and covered picnic areas, boat ramp,&nbsp;
