HOA Priority Bills:
CONDOMINIUMS; COMMERCIAL STRUCTURES; RESIDENTIAL STRUCTURES
Requires that any common expenses in a condominium with separate commercial and residential structures be allocated based on the benefit to each structure. Expenses exclusively benefiting a commercial structure must be assessed only to the commercial units, while those benefiting a residential structure must be assessed only to the residential units. Expenses benefiting both structures must be proportionally allocated between them and assessed on a pro rata basis. Places the burden of proof on the condominium association to demonstrate compliance with these allocation requirements in case of disputes. Applies to all condominiums existing on or after the effective date of this legislation.
