The Greenbrae Property Owners Association is a volunteer, nonprofit association formed in 1948. We serve the Greenbrae community and act as a resource and advocate for residents on landscaping, fire safety, land use and neighborhood life.

The Board of Directors of the GPOA are volunteer members who serve the community on a best-effort basis. The Board acts as a liaison to Marin County and City of Larkspur Planning and Building departments, coordinates community landscaping and fire-safety efforts, and administers the community’s Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions.
