The proposed bill SB1016 amends existing Arizona law regarding homeowners' associations (HOAs) and the display of flags. Under the current law, HOAs can regulate the location and size of flagpoles, limit the number of flags displayed, and set height restrictions for flagpoles. The new bill specifically allows HOAs to limit members to the installation of two wall-mounted flagpole holders, rather than two flagpoles, while maintaining the existing provisions that prevent HOAs from prohibiting the installation of flagpoles in front or back yards and from restricting the display of certain flags.

Additionally, the bill makes technical changes to the language of the law, clarifying the definitions and rules surrounding flag display. It emphasizes that the HOA's regulations can include limiting members to two wall-mounted flagpole holders and retains the stipulation that members can display no more than two flags at once. The bill is set to take effect on the general effective date, with no anticipated fiscal impact on the state General Fund.
