AI Summary

This bill aims to assist condominium association members in accessing certain paperwork. It amends the General Laws of Massachusetts to impose penalties on parties responsible for keeping condominium records who fail to comply with record-keeping requirements. Specifically, the bill requires the party responsible for keeping records to prepare and distribute a financial report within 120 days of the fiscal year-end, and mandates that the report be reviewed by an independent certified public accountant. Failure to comply with these provisions can result in fines of up to $1,000 and a 6-month ban on entering new management service contracts within the Commonwealth. Additionally, the bill grants the Attorney General the authority to enforce these record-keeping requirements and promulgate related rules and regulations.
