CCFJ WISH LIST 2024
CCFJ Director for Legislative Affairs
Milena Macias, Esq.
The 2024 Florida Legislative
session is here.
Owners governed under mandatory
associations in Florida need their elected officials to enact laws
on community association governance for uniform, fair and equal
treatment, including:
-
Stricter enforcement of record requests
-- including Board and/or CAM denials to owners requesting
financial records of the Association and/or destruction of an
official document or record of the Association.
-
Enforcement agencies that
work together to enforce the
law -- including the Florida Department of Law
Enforcement (FDLE, representatives from the Department of
Business and Professional Regulation (DBPR) and the Office of
the Condominium Ombudsman (OCO) to work together ensuring that
any complaints by affected unit owners can be dealt with in an
efficient, fair and impartial manner.
-
Punishment on
misuse of funds by
Boards of Directors and Community Association Managers,
including criminal penalties.
-
Mandatory Education
for Board Members -- not just a certificate acknowledgment but
an actual classroom educational forum on roles and compliance
for their positions.
