Members Only (with exceptions) Can Attend Meetings. California's community associations are not part of the public sector; they are private membership organizations. As a result, the general public does not have a right to attend board or membership meetings.
Overview of AB 3182 This legislation's key provision is the limitation it places on HOAs' ability to restrict homeowners from renting out their properties. Specifically, HOAs can't enforce rental caps that limit rentals to less than 25% of the units, nor can they impose upfront fees to lease a property.

An HOA has the authority to enforce the rules and regulations of the community using the community rules, or “bylaws and covenants.” These rules are considered “agreed upon” since homeowners approve them through board-elected representatives.

The number is usually five. Very small associations sometimes call for three directors, and very large associations may have seven or more.
