Summary
Existing law, the Davis-Stirling Common Interest Development Act, governs the management and operation of common interest developments. Existing law defines a board meeting as a congregation or a teleconference, as provided. Existing law requires, among other things, a board meeting held by teleconference to identify at least one physical location so that members of the association may attend, except as provided. Existing law also establishes alternative teleconferencing procedures for a board meeting or a meeting of the members if gathering in person is unsafe or impossible because the common interest development is in an area affected by a federal, state, or local emergency. This bill would authorize a board meeting or a meeting of the members to be conducted entirely by teleconference if specified conditions are satisfied. These conditions would include, among others, a requirement that the notice for the meeting provide clear instructions on how to participate by teleconference and would require each director and member to have the same ability to participate that would exist if the meeting were held in person. These teleconference provisions would not apply to a meeting at which ballots are counted and tabulated, as prescribed. The bill would make conforming changes and include related legislative findings.
