  • Changing HOA Laws

As an HOA board member, you have a responsibility to keep your community up-to-date on the latest laws and regulations. This can be a daunting task, as HOA laws are constantly changing. However, it is important to stay informed so that you can make decisions that are in the best interests of your community.

Here are some tips for HOA board members who are responsible for handling changing HOA laws:

  • Subscribe to HOA industry publications. There are a number of HOA industry publications that provide regular updates on the latest laws and regulations. These publications can be a great way to stay informed about the latest changes.
  • Attend HOA conferences and workshops. HOA conferences and workshops are a great way to learn about the latest laws and regulations from experts in the field. You can also network with other HOA board members and learn from their experiences.
  • Talk to your HOA management company. If you have a HOA management company, they should be able to keep you up-to-date on the latest laws and regulations.
  • Read your HOA governing documents carefully. Your HOA governing documents should include a section that outlines the laws and regulations that apply to your community. Make sure to read this section carefully and keep it updated as the laws change.
  • Create a system for tracking changes in the law. This could be a simple spreadsheet or a more sophisticated database. The important thing is to have a system in place so that you can easily track changes and ensure that your community is always in compliance.
  • Set up a process for communicating changes to the law to your community. This could involve sending out a newsletter, posting information on your website, or holding a community meeting. The important thing is to make sure that your residents are aware of the changes and how they affect them.
  • Be prepared to answer questions from your residents about changes in the law. Residents may have questions about how the changes will affect them or their property. Be prepared to answer these questions in a clear and concise way.

By following these tips, you can help ensure that your HOA is in compliance with the latest laws and regulations. This will help protect your community and its residents from legal problems.
