Common Interest Residential Community Association Drafting:
Hi,
Drafting of alternative Community Association statutes mentioned in previous messages is getting additional support. There are now over 20,000 email addresses of persons indicating interest and a willingness to participate. If you know of any others that should be added please check with them to be sure they are being included by replying with the name and email address.
The indications to strive for include:
An uniform statute including residential Condominiums, Home Owner Associations, Co-ops and Mobile Homes that will replace the myriad laws.
Include Time-Share and Condo-Hotel in their own statute.
Effective regulation and accountability of the DBPR when dealing with issues.
Better access to education and assistance.
Limiting of special interests in the process.
Use common language.
The Florida Statutes involved will be 34, 455, 468, 718, 719, 720, 721 and 723.
They are available at

In the past there has been little cooperation or communication with the several factions, practitioners, stake holders and owner representatives during the drafting process. Some lobbyists guard their special interests to include in legislation as late in the process as possible to prevent any organized opposition. This process is open to everyone and is an experiment to determine if this open drafting method is more reflective of the protections needed for owners in residential communities.
Participation is invited.......... If you want a copy of the first draft please email request to [email protected]
