AI Summary
This bill amends the General Laws of Massachusetts to require that minutes of condominium or homeowners association meetings include decisions that directly affect unit owners, and to mandate that all unit owners be given reasonable notice of regularly scheduled open and relevant board meetings, with accurate and complete minutes made available within 30 days. The bill also requires the trustee chair of the association to reside within the condominium and be elected annually, with a notification sent to residents prior to elections on expiring terms and the process for interested owners to be considered. Additionally, residents can petition the trustee board with a minimum of 25% of signatures to place a subject on the association's ballot for a resident vote.
