The goal was to show that this could be done in a sustainable way while also minimizing the impact on the local ecology.The Harmony Residential Owners Association (ROA) was created on October 8, 2002.: p. 10.  It "establishes a mechanism by which to realize the goal of creating a community in which good citizenship and community service are encouraged from all residents".
