What’s in it

This bill relates to access by certain entities to specific records and documents maintained by a unit owners association. Under the bill, a unit owners association is an organization of unit owners in a common interest community, including a planned community, a cooperative under Code chapter 499A, or a horizontal property regime under Code chapter 499B. “Common interest community” is defined in the bill and exclusions from the definition are detailed in the bill. A unit owners association, a unit owners association’s designee, or a unit owners association’s management company (association) must make certain records and documents, as detailed in the bill, available to a unit owner or the unit owner’s authorized agent within business days of a request by the unit owner or the unit owner’s authorized agent.

Read the full explanation

An association may make the records and documents available to the unit owner or the unit owner’s authorized agent via paper copy, electronically to an electronic mail address provided by the unit owner or the unit owner’s authorized agent, or by posting the records and documents to an internet site maintained by the association to which the unit owner or the unit owner’s authorized agent has reasonable access. An association may charge a reasonable fee for records and documents provided under the bill. The fee shall not exceed the estimated cost of production or reproduction of the records or documents.
