A practical guide for responding to harassment, discrimination reports and disability accommodation requests in the HOA. California’s new Fair Housing Regulations present many questions and challenges for the manager or owner of property.Â
California adopted the first Fair Housing regulations of any state in the USA. With an effective date of 1/1/20, the regulations in part follow preexisting (since 9/16) regulations of the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) but also go beyond the HUD regulations in many respects. This presentation will provide a comprehensive review of the new regulations and their guidance to homeowner associations and their managers.
2019 was one of the most active years for legislation affecting California common interest developments in a very long time. At least nine new laws will take effect on January 1, 2020 which will change the way California HOAs operate - not including the landmark Fair Housing Regulations which also take effect at that date. This fast moving presentation will discuss each of these ten new laws, providing not only a quick summary of each but also a practical discussion of how it will affect associations, their boards and managers. The prepared remarks will consume approximately 50 minutes, with the rest of the hour reserved for audience questions.Â
The Why, How, When (and What NOT To Do), To Create, Propose, and Pass Amendments. Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions, normally called CC&Rs are the backbone of the common interest community. They often require amending, due to preferences of the community, changes in the law, or other circumstances.
What is the role of the manager in board meetings? How to properly use committees? What should be included in agendas and minutes? How do you deal with disruptions? What does the law say about electronic communications and teleconferencing? What can a board do to reduce wasted time? How do consent calendars work? How can diversity of thought shorten discussions?
Associations have governing documents, and enforcing those documents is one of the unpleasant realities of community association governance and management. Can managers and boards unintentionally make the process harder, more stressful and hostile?
Creating, amending and enforcing HOA rules are the bane of the manager (and volunteer director's) existence. Rules can be a great help to a community and build community spirit, or they can create more problems and foster divisiveness and negativity... and even litigation. In this presentation Kelly Richardson will discuss the basic as well as advanced concepts in rule creation, amendment and enforcement. The very fast-paced presentation will be 60 minutes in length, including 10 minutes for questions at the end of the prepared remarks.
