Bill Summary

HOA regulation of beekeeping. Provides that a homeowners association may regulate the number and location of beehives on properties. Provides that a homeowners association may not: (1) regulate the number and location of beehives that are located on a property before the regulations are adopted; and (2) prohibit beekeeping on property that complies with state law, if the beehives are actively maintained for pollination or production of honey. Provides when a homeowners association may prohibit beekeeping within 100 feet of a property.

AI Summary

This bill aims to regulate how homeowners associations (HOAs) can govern beekeeping activities within their communities. The key provisions are: 1. HOAs can adopt or amend their governing documents to regulate the number and location of active beehives on properties, except for beehives that were already present before the regulations were adopted. 2. HOAs cannot prohibit beekeeping on properties that comply with state law, as long as the beehives are actively maintained for pollination or honey production. 3. HOAs can only prohibit beekeeping within 100 feet of a property if the resident of that property has a documented bee allergy and lived there before the beekeeping began in that area. This bill aims to balance the interests of beekeepers and HOA residents, allowing reasonable regulation while protecting existing beekeepers and those with medical needs.
