HOA Board of DirectorsWhy did Riverbay’s governing documents flag 2 potential compliance issues, and what should the Board do?
Older HOA Declarations, Bylaws, and Operating Rules frequently contain provisions superseded by subsequent amendments to New York Condominium Act (Real Property Law Art. 9-B), Business Corporation Law (BCL) & Not-for-Profit Corporation Law (N-PCL) or federal law, or internal hierarchy conflicts where board rules contradict the recorded Declaration. The 2 flagged clauses highlight areas where Riverbay’s Board of Directors and association counsel can proactively update policies, avoid unenforceable fine or enforcement disputes, and fulfill board fiduciary duties.
