831883 8 herein or in the condominium instruments shall require the
832884 9 specified percentage by number of units rather than by
833885 10 percentage of interest in the common elements allocated to
834886 11 units that would otherwise be applicable and garage units
835887 12 or storage units, or both, shall have, in total, no more
836888 13 votes than their aggregate percentage of ownership in the
837889 14 common elements; this shall mean that if garage units or
838890 15 storage units, or both, are to be given a vote, or portion
839891 16 of a vote, that the association must add the total number
840892 17 of votes cast of garage units, storage units, or both, and
841893 18 divide the total by the number of garage units, storage
842894 19 units, or both, and multiply by the aggregate percentage
843895 20 of ownership of garage units and storage units to
844896 21 determine the vote, or portion of a vote, that garage
845897 22 units or storage units, or both, have. For purposes of

14721524 2 This Section does not restrict the powers of the
14731525 3 association to otherwise amend the declaration, bylaws, or
14741526 4 other condominium instruments, but authorizes a simple
14751527 5 process of amendment requiring a lesser vote for the
14761528 6 purpose of correcting defects, errors, or omissions when
14771529 7 the property rights of the unit owners are not materially
14781530 8 or adversely affected.
14791531 9 (5) If there is an omission or error in the
14801532 10 declaration or other instruments that may not be corrected
14811533 11 by an amendment procedure set forth in subdivision (h)(1)
14821534 12 or (h)(2) of this Section, then the circuit court in the
14831535 13 county in which the master association is located shall
14841536 14 have jurisdiction to hear a petition of one or more of the
14851537 15 unit owners thereon or of the association, to correct the
14861538 16 error or omission, and the action may be a class action.
14871539 17 The court may require that one or more methods of
14881540 18 correcting the error or omission be submitted to the unit
14891541 19 owners to determine the most acceptable correction. All
14901542 20 unit owners in the association must be joined as parties
14911543 21 to the action. Service of process on owners may be by
14921544 22 publication, but the plaintiff shall furnish all unit
14931545 23 owners not personally served with process with copies of
14941546 24 the petition and final judgment of the court by certified
14951547 25 mail, return receipt requested, at their last known

15781630 4 those that use that public utility service and may reflect
15791631 5 variations in apartment size or usage. The landlord shall also
15801632 6 make available to the tenant upon request a copy of the public
15811633 7 utility bill for any billing period for which payment is
15821634 8 demanded. Nothing herein shall preclude a landlord from

15851637 11 the utilities.
15861638 12 (b) No condominium or common interest community
15871639 13 association may demand payment for master metered public

15911643 17 with a copy in writing of the formula used by the association
15921644 18 for allocating the public utility payments among the unit
15931645 19 owners. The total of payments under the formula for the
15941646 20 association as a whole for the annual budgeted billing period
15951647 21 may not exceed the sum demanded by the public utility,
15961648 22 however, the board of directors of the association may direct
15971649 23 that any payments received by the association in excess of
15981650 24 actual utility bills be applied to other budgeted items having

16231675 13 to Section 1-45 of the Common Interest Community Association

1625-15 interest community association the right to establish a system
