Colorado New HOA Laws: How Will This Impact HOAs? | HOAM
Abstract
The Passing of Colorado New HOA Laws In addition to their governing documents, homeowners associations are regulated by federal and state laws. What Are the New Colorado HOA Laws? The Centennial State recently passed four new bills into law - three House Bills and one Senate Bill. While the bill consists of several provisions, some of the most important ones include the following: Homeowners associations must first contact the owner about the delinquency prior to making any collection attempts. According to the bill, it is illegal for homeowners associations to prohibit the use of a public right-of-way. House Bill 22-1040: Home Owners' Reasonable Access to Common Areas According to Colorado Revised Statutes Section 38-33.3-302, homeowners associations can "Regulate the use, maintenance, repair, replacement, and modification of common elements." House Bill 22-1040 amends this section to include a new provision. House Bill 22-1020 is another bill that failed to pass. The bill would have protected the rights of homeowners to use certain kinds of energy.
