AI Summary

This bill prohibits owners' associations from restricting or limiting the installation of solar panels or solar collectors on the rooftop of any property or structure. It allows owners' associations to adopt reasonable rules regarding the placement of solar panels or solar collectors, as long as those rules do not prevent the installation, impair the functioning, restrict the use, or adversely affect the cost or efficiency of the solar panels or solar collectors. The requirements of this bill apply only to rooftops that are owned, controlled, and maintained by the individual property or structure owner, and it applies retroactively to deed restrictions, covenants, bylaws, or other governing documents of owners' associations that were recorded or in effect before the effective date of the act, which is November 1, 2023.
