HOAs; complaints; dispositions; online access

SB 1260 requires Arizona homeowners associations (HOAs) to maintain detailed written or electronic records of all alleged violations of condominium documents for two years, including the violation date, description, resolution, and any fines. HOAs must make these records publicly accessible to unit owners either via a website or upon written request, with personal privacy protected by redacting owner names and unit numbers. The bill mandates that HOAs provide specific written explanations to owners within 10 days of receiving a response to a violation notice, including the violated rule, observation date, and contest process. Failure to comply results in civil penalties of up to $500 per month of noncompliance.
