SB 1039: homeowner's associations; meetings; recordings
Sponsor: Senator Kavanagh, LD 3
Signed by the Governor
Overview
Provides requirements for a condominium unit owners' association and a planned community
association (homeowner's association) board of directors relating to recordings of an open
meeting.
History
All meetings of a homeowner's association and a board of directors are statutorily required
to be open to all members of the association or a member's designated representative. Persons
attending such meetings may audiotape or videotape those portions that are open. The board
of directors may adopt reasonable rules governing the audiotaping or videotaping of the
meeting. The adopted rules may not preclude such audiotaping or videotaping, unless the
board audiotapes or videotapes the meeting and makes the unedited tapes available to
members on request without restrictions on the tapes' use as evidence in any dispute
resolution process (A.R.S. §§ 33-1248, 33-1804).
Provisions
1. Requires a homeowner's association board of directors that records an open meeting to
keep a copy of the recording for at least six months. (Sec. 1, 2)
2. Instructs the homeowner's association board of directors to make the unedited recording
available upon request in accordance with statutory furnishing of records requirements.
