Bill > HB1377

This bill amends Pennsylvania's real property laws to require county planning agencies to prepare and maintain more comprehensive annual reports about condominiums, cooperatives, and planned communities. Under the new provisions, these annual reports must now include detailed information such as the total land area, number of units, and infrastructure details for each development, specifically noting the presence of sanitary sewer, water and storm water systems, recreation facilities, and roadways. The bill mandates that when these residential developments are created, the declarant (the initial developer) must submit a statement to the county planning agency identifying the development by name, physical location, and municipality, along with the required infrastructure and unit details. This legislation applies to three types of property ownership structures: condominiums, cooperatives, and planned communities, and aims to increase transparency and record-keeping about new residential developments across Pennsylvania. The changes will take effect 60 days after the bill's passage, providing local governments with a more standardized and comprehensive method of tracking and documenting new residential communities.
