    Our management company rents space in a commercial building on our property. The renters in the commercial area are being given key cards and pool passes to those renters. They pay nothing towards the maintenance of the common areas. There is nothing in the bylaws that allow nor restrict this. Is this legal?

    Hi, I recently joined this coalition. I own a condo in Waterbury, CT called Cynthia Court. It’s a smaller association with only 16 total units. I recently have experienced a severe plumbing issue. I reached out to my association for help, only to be given the run around. The condo association is the primary insurance carrier. They are also unhelpful, stating they are at the mercy of the association. I got quotes for all the damage and it total more than $5000.00 in damages. I am going on three weeks and the association says it’s under review with the board and association attorney. I do not carry insurance because financially I could not afford it, however I do plan on carrying out after this issue is resolved. Part of my damage is mold and I have recently become sick and my dogs have unexplained rashes that suddenly occurred. What can I do to get help and expedite this process?

    Question: as a recent transplant from FL, I am amazed that our Condo Board & Mgt can hold meetings barring Owners unless specially approved to attend to present a case or problem . How can owners be so disenfranchised… granted it improves efficiency but………

  5. Stephen D Peirce aka Scott says:

    But they do…. what CT law can I refer to …?

    A condo owner who lives outside the USA gave me written permission to have access to her condo assoc. account so I can be sure all is running smoothly. The condo manager says it is illegal and she can’t give me any information on that account. Is it illegal?

    Hello,

    I’m the president of 185 West St condos in Southington CT. we are a 19 unit complex. One of our past presidents had signed a 5-year auto renewal trash removal contract which was supposed to end in May 2017. It, however, got renewed for another 5-year term because of the auto renewal clause. We weren’t notified. When contacted, we were told that the trash company need not notify us. They are charging like 40% more than the competitor. How can we get out of the contract? Do the CT auto renewal laws apply in our case?

    I live in a 71 unit condo complex and have had numerous water leaks from the roof over the years. The textured ceiling paint is deteriorating and cracking and recently detached from the ceiling drywall where it was repaired multiple times by the property manager. The paint, and taping compound, tested positive for asbestos and I am facing over $40,000 to remediate the damages. I am the first to discover its existence so I am the whistle blower so to speak. The Condo Association says it’s not their responsibility and they don’t have to inspect units before renovations, or notify other unit owners that it exists here, nor do they have to tell potential buyers. My homeowner’s policy says it’s the responsibility of the Condo Association’s master policy because the source of the damage is a common area (roof). However, the master policy is claiming the damage is due to the Condo Association’s failure to maintain the roof in good repair. I have reached out to the DPH, the DCP, the Attorney General and the Insurance Commissioner but no one seems to be able to help me. Can someone recommend an attorney please before I lose my home? Feeling hopeless….

    My question is about executive committee (“EC”) proper process. I know our board does not vote at their EC meetings, but they seem to have an EC meeting at the end of almost every board meeting. Unit owners who attend board meetings have no any idea what subjects they are discussing at EC meetings. They often decide to convene an EC meeting when there is a topic that is an issue that is unpopular, heated, etc. Is the board supposed to inform of the topic(s) the EC meeting will be about? (ie a contract, personnel) – it is possible they are doing this for secrecy and lack of transparency, just to avoid discussing subjects at the board meeting.

    Also, I read somewhere they are not supposed to do regular business at EC meetings, only regarding RFPs, litigation, or matters that it is important to keep confidential. That is why I thought they were supposed to announce the purpose of the EC meeting. Where can we find the rules about EC meetings. Thank you.
