RELATING TO HOMEOWNERS' ASSOCIATIONS.

HB 1835 updates Hawaii law to expand the legal definition of "condominium association" to include associations organized under Chapter 421J of the Hawaii Revised Statutes (HRS). This change directly affects certain homeowners' associations currently governed by Chapter 421J, which were previously excluded from the condominium association framework. The bill modifies the statutory definition without adding new requirements or altering existing rules for these associations. It is a procedural clarification to ensure consistent application of laws governing such associations.
