Generally speaking, the declaration is the document that creates the inium. The bylaws spell out the day-to-day operations of the association. If your association is more than 10 years old and the bylaws have remained unchanged, board members may want to consider making updates.
Utah HOAs are primarily governed by the Utah Revised Nonprofit Corporation Act as well as specific legislation pertaining to iniums and community associations. These state laws are designed to work in conjunction with relevant federal laws to ensure that HOAs operate within the legal framework.
Four types of legal “governing documents” are typically associated with subdivisions such as iniums and planned developments: the Declaration of Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions (or “CC&Rs”), the Bylaws, the Articles of Incorporation, and the Rules.
Bylaws set forth how the condo association will operate including how and when meetings are held, how directors and officers are elected, the powers of the board of directors, insurance requirements, and maintenance responsibilities.
Ultimately, one of the main purposes of a condo association is to ensure your safety and convenience, as well as that of the other unit owners and residents in your complex or building. Another objective is maintaining property values so the community continues to be a good investment.
An HOA's governing documents are usually in the form of a Declaration of Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions (CC&Rs) and bylaws. The CC&Rs explain the rules of the HOA community, while the bylaws cover how the HOA operates.
The Declarations define the use and occupancy rules of the units and common areas. Condo bylaws outline the remedies for breach of these rules.
Answer: Yes, condo bylaws are legally binding documents. They are part of the inium's governing documents and are enforceable under both state or provincial laws and local regulations.
In Utah, two key laws govern homeowners associations ("HOAs") and inium owners associations ("COAs"). The inium Act, Utah Code § 57-8, applies to COAs, and deals with individually owned units supported by collectively held facilities and areas, such as iniums or townhomes.
Utah Code Title 57 Chapter 8 is the inium Ownership Act authored by Keith Romney and passed into law in 1960. The Act allowed individuals to have private ownership of property in a collective unit. Although authored in 1960, the Act wasn't officially adopted until 1963.
