Community Associations Issues in Florida
Community association law has become a highly specialized area, with ever-changing responsibilities for those who give their time to assist their communities. Board members have been bombarded with not just the governance papers, but also the numerous rules and regulations established under federal and state law.
Community associations are required to carry out their responsibilities in the best interests of their members, in line with the community association’s governing documents as well as applicable statute and administrative law. As a result, a community association needs to be proactive instead of reactive when it comes to recognizing issues that affect the community and its members.
