AB 21: Common interest developments: association management and meeting procedures.

The bill aims to improve the management and transparency of common interest developments. It requires the board to provide individual notice of proposed rule changes and announces litigation, insurance claims, or policy changes at subsequent meetings. The bill also mandates electronic recording of open session meetings, making the recordings available to members. Additionally, it requires the minutes to include specified information and eliminates the charge for distributing minutes electronically. The bill updates definitions and makes other related changes to the Davis-Stirling Common Interest Development Act. It also provides a cause of action for members who prevail in civil actions related to board meetings and excludes amendments to the operating rules from the secret ballot requirement.
