As discussed in other blog posts, Senate Bill 323 ("SB 323") took effect on January 1, 2020. Prior to SB 323, a typical HOA board election would require 60-75 days to complete. SB 323 extends that timeline to at least 105 days - more like 120 in practice - and imposes complex new notice requirements on associations.
The following represents a prudent 130-day timeline for conducing SB 323 compliant board elections. This timeline is longer than that required by law, but its length ensures sufficient time for boards to understand SB 323's complex new requirements, select workable dates, retain a qualified inspector, and prepare SB 323's multiple new forms.
