What changed between versions

Engrossed → Enrolled · 2 edits · Jul 21, 2025

MINOR

The primary change in this version is a formatting correction in the header, updating the bill status from 'Engrossed' to 'Enrolled.' Additionally, minor spacing adjustments were made to the text regarding condominium leasing requirements and unit owner assessment payments, but these do not alter the legal meaning or policy of the bill.

TECHNICAL

The bill header was updated to reflect the final 'Enrolled' status instead of the previous 'Engrossed' status, indicating the bill is in its final form ready for signing.

Minor spacing inconsistencies were corrected in the text describing condominium leasing requirements and special assessment payments to improve readability without changing the legal obligations.
