How do you amend the by-laws or regulations in condo associations?

Yes, By-laws, CC&Rs, Rules and Regulations can all be amended, changed and altered.

By-laws and CC&Rs always contain amendment procedures, which must be followed in order for amendments to be legal. Amendments to CC&Rs must also be filed in the local hall of records, in the land-use office.

All amendments, changes or alterations require very specific voting requirements and notification-of-owners requirements that must be followed in order for any amendment, change or alteration to be legally effective.

Consult your association's governing documents for the answers you seek. Best practices dictate that you work with association counsel to make these changes.
